In Adulthood, Morality, and the Fully Human, John J. Shea describes
an adult, moral, and fully human self in terms of integrity and
mutuality. Those who are fully human are caring and just. Violence
is the absence of care and justice. Peace-the pinnacle of human
development-is their embodiment. Integrity and mutuality together
beget care and justice and care and justice together beget peace.
Shea shows the practical importance of the fully human self for
education, psychotherapy, and spirituality. This book is especially
recommended for scholars and those in helping professions.
The Book of the Law, the holy text that forms the basis of Thelema,
was transmitted to Crowley by the entity known as Aiwass in Cairo,
on three successive days during April 1904. Acting as a medium,
Crowley recorded the communications on hotel notepads and later
organized his automatic writing into a short, coherent document.
Aiwass/Crowley presents The Book of the Law as an expression of
three god-forms in three chapters: Nuit, Hadit, and Ra-Hoor-Khuit.
