The Supreme Invocation to the Lord of the Universe
THE SUPREME INVOCATION
TO THE LORD OF THE UNIVERE
For daily use of
the Magician
Adoration be unto Thee, Lord of my Life: for Thou hast permitted
me to enter thus far into the Sanctuary of Thine Ineffable
Mystery; and hast vouchsafed to manifest unto me some little
fragment of the Glory of Thy Supreme Being. Hear me, Thou Vast
and Mighty One; hear me, and grant that my Will be done! Grant
that I may ever uphold and exercise Thine Holy Way of Liberty, as
a god who is free to do his True Will amongst the legions of the
living; and grant unto me the comprehension of aught that may
bring me nearer unto Thee. Teach me, Lord Horus, more and more of
Thy Mystery and Thy Mastery. Let each day and night and hour
bring me nearer, near unto Thee. Let me aid Thee in Thy Great
Work upon earth, so that I may one day become truly united unto
Thee in all Thy Infinite Glory of Light, Life, Love and Liberty.
Come Thou forth unto me, O Thou Mighty and Vast One, that art the
Lord of the Aeon, Thou Supreme and Terrible God who makest the
gods and death to tremble before Thee, and whose Law is DO WHAT
THOU WILT. O Thou Heart of my Soul: O Thou Self-Shining Flame: O
Thou Glory of the Light of the Sun: Thee, Thee, I invoke! Come
Thou forth unto me, my Lord; to me, who am Thy vain reflection in
the mighty sea of matter. O hear me, Thou Lord of the Gods: hear
me in the habitations of Eternity: and come Thou forth unto me to
purify and consecrate to Thy Great Work my mind and will. Without
Thee I am nothing. In Thee I am All-Self Existing in Thy Selfhood
to Eternity!
Come Thou forth unto me, O Thou Most Hidden Light! O Thou Heart
of my Soul, Thee, Thee, I invoke! Come Thou forth unto me, O Thou
who art my very Selfhood, mine Essence, my Light; and do Thou
guard me and guide me through the manifold paths of Life, that I
may at length become one with Thy Supreme and Terrible Essence! O
Lord of the Universe, grant Thou that upon me may shine forth the
Light of my True Soul; and let me be guided by the help of mine
Holy Angel unto the attainment of Thy Throne of Glory.
And for this day, teach me this one thing: how I may learn from
Thee the Mysteries of Thy Sacred Magick of Thelema: that I may
obtain the Knowledge and Power of my True Will, and thus attain
to the Knowledge and Conversation of mine Holy Guardian Angel;
and how best I may use that Knowledge and Power to assist my
fellow men and women to accomplish Thy Great Work upon earth.
And finally, I implore Thee, to let there be a link of unity
between us, that I may ever seek, and seeking, obtain Freedom and
Knowledge in Thee who art my very Selfhood, that I may duly
partake of Thy Supreme Essence of Power to attain the Grand
Philosopher's Stone, the Summum Bonum, True Wisdom and Perfect
Happiness. O Lord, may my Will which is Thine be done!
