realize that for a time you will feel disorientated, lost,
unsure of yourself. You may be trembly, you may
have headaches, you may have vague pains in the
lower part of your body. But, if you will let them,
they will pass and you can do normal things again.
You can enjoy sex, you can enjoy sports.
But it all depends upon your attitude, upon your
frame of mind, because as you think so you are.
One of the big causes of hysterectomy, frigidity,
etc., in women well, a man wouldn't have hysterec-
tomy, now, would he?! is that parents of the old
school often told their children horrible things about
sex. Mothers a few years ago taught their daughters
that sex was terrible, horrible, despicable, disgusting,
and just about everything in that line with a result
that they preconditioned the daughter to abhor sex,
preconditioned the daughter to be the one respons-
ible for failure in marriage.
I know a woman who was so utterly terrified about
sex by her mother that although she is now in name a
married woman, she knows nothing about her hus-
64
band's body and he knows the same about her. He is a
good natured fellow without any drive, without any
ambition, as one would expect from the fore-
going, and these people live a life as exciting as a
lettuce and a cabbage living together in the same
shelf of the freezer. I mentioned sex once to this
woman, and she nearly threw a fit with embarrass-
ment, horror, and shock, and in my considered
opinion she is just about insane because of the fear of
sex. She is always afraid of being raped.
It is a tragic thing that mothers shall give daughters
such a wholly false idea about sex. But not only
mothers are to blame. Many people who claim to be
occultists tell others that sex is unclean, sex stops one
from progressing in occult studies. Nothing can be
further from the truth. There are certain people who
need sex, and there are others who do not. You can-
not class humans all in one bunch, what suits one
group does not suit the other. And I state quite
definitely that there is no harm in sex, but only good,
provided the practitioners of the art are in love with
each other. If they are not in love then the sex act is
nothing but elimination the same as other elimina-
tions of the body.
Unfortunately certain Churches, notably the
Catholic Church, teach a lot of rot about sex. So far as
I have been able to determine the Catholic Church
was started by a lot of old men who were scared stiff of
women, but they were not so scared of other men and
small boys! That may shock some, but if any of you
are shocked then get down to a bit of study and find
out for yourself. If you have some money go along to
the Vatican, and if you can think of a good enough
story you will be able to see some of the books, history
books, in the Libraries. And in connection with this it
amuses me immensely to know that in the Vatican
there is the biggest collection of erotica, or porno-
graphic pictures, of anywhere in the Western world.

And yet the Catholics preach against sex.
Sex is normal, sex is natural, sex is utterly necessary
to some people, and anyhow what right has a Catholic
priest to dictate to other people? How can a Catholic
priest, an unmarried man, tell a married woman what
she should or should not do? He's talking about
things of which he knows nothing or should know
nothing if he truly is a Catholic priest.
Perhaps we should start a campaign against breath-
ing, let us tell some of these Catholic priests that they
commit a mortal sin every time they draw a breath, or
every time they attend to the calls of Nature. By the
look of some of them they don't commit many mortal
sins, do they? You'll gather from this that I do not
like Catholic priests, and that is perfectly correct, I
think they are a bigoted lot. Instead of research to
find anything out about the Bible, to find out any-
thing about the Founder of Christianity, they just
swallow the Bible lock, stock, and barrel. Take that
old tale about Adam and Eve, the Serpent and the
apple; well, according to Eastern Teachings the Ser-
pent becomes the male organ, and the apple is the
container which holds the seed. And if you read some
of the Bible in the light of Eastern knowledge you
will agree that there is quite a lot in the Eastern way
of thinking.
Moses was found in the bulrushes; sure he
was found in the bulrushes. But he was placed there
by the Gardeners of the Earth, that is the people who
are known as U.F.O. people, to be found. And later
in life Moses ascended into the Mountain, Moses did
a lot of strange things. But if you re-read the relevant
chapters you will find that Moses stepped upon a
terraced floor; did he do that on a mountain, or did
he step into a flying ship, a U.F.O.? Moses had a Rod
of Power; it wasn't made on Earth, you know, it was
made on another world. Moses was, in fact, another
spaceman specially planted on Earth.

We will deal more with that type of thing in the
next chapter, but I want to put on record that for
sheer bigotry and ignorance the Roman Catholic
priest is hard to beat. I know, I've met loads of them.
And I don't like any of them! I have tried to discuss
religion with them sensibly and with an honest desire
for knowledge, but the Catholic priest always loses his
temper, fiddles with his collar, turns red, and bolts.
So much for Catholic priests!
Now, I get frequent letters from people who are
interested in drugs like LSD, marijuana, peyote, and
all the rest of the junk. A surprising number of such
people write to me from prisons throughout the
U.S.A. They ask me what I think of LSD, what I
think of marijuana, and all the rest of it, and it might
be interesting to put my definite opinion down here:
LSD, marijuana, peyote, and all these drugs are
terribly, terribly harmful to the Overself. If you want
to injure yourself well, that's your own choice, but
it is not a good thing to injure your Overself because
down here you are only one tenth conscious, so you
don't know what the other nine tenths want. Drugs of
this type tangle the Silver Cord, make depressions and
twists in the aura, and leave harmful scars on the
astral body. There is no sense whatever in injuring
your body just in search of fresh sensations which are
false sensations, anyhow. The only use for any of these
drugs is in the hands of qualified medical researchers
who can be assumed to know what they are doing or
they wouldn't be qualified medical researchers. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
