Jul 14, Araminta Matthews rated it Esoteric Orders and Their Work was ok. My study into Esoteric Orders have revealed a few things. First, while Fortune is clearly the lesser of two evils when paired with Crowley, it Esoteric Orders and Their Work still an evil. This book alone is so peppered with casual racism that I even wonder is her work inspired some of the fascists of her day. Second, esoteric orders are designed to create a system of power and we all know the first order of anyone in power is to maintain that power. Because it is mighty convenient that we are to trust no one but the perpetrators of our abuse initiations and torture and that those perpetuators are perhaps selected intuitively In my world, knowledge is power and we all have a right to power over ourselves but not over others. And furthermore, education and spirituality are rights and therefore should be accessible and free of hierarchy. You have no power over me, and what scares you most is that you see clearly the power I have over myself. I hold my power. I know it well. Even the allure of esoteric knowledge cannot make it waver. Mar 16, Gerrit G. Abstract read: evading description on how esoteric orders in different manners work, also some useful definitions. Not completely enlightening for me. Apr 11, James Hein rated it really liked it. This provides a good overview of the esoteric world. Like all of these books the more you know the more they make sense but this does address a number if important issues for the Seeker. It gives you some hints on how to find a teacher, what to look for and what to avoid. Informs how an adept journeys upon the path. Recommended reading for those already on the path.
