Why read it?

1 author picked Magick as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Aleister Crowley (1875-1947) remains understudied and misunderstood. His colorful and often scandalous biography still occludes his intellectual and spiritual brilliance. Crowley robustly argued a deep commonality between Western ritual magick and Indian Yoga.

This book is his magnum opus; the first part, “Mysticism,” deals with the “eight limbs of Yoga.” Crowley’s argument is that a pursuit of magic and meditation, which he sees as two sides of the same coin, should manifest one’s inner genius and lead to a purposeful life aligned with one’s true will.   

From Gordan's list on India and the occult.
