Aleister Crowley, an English occultist, mystic, poet, and ceremonial magician, lived from 1875 to 1947. He is arguably best known for founding the thelemic doctrine.
Because of his fascination with and experiments with a variety of occult and magical activities, as well as his colorful demeanor and unconventional way of living, Crowley was and continues to be a contentious figure.
Crowley was a prolific author who wrote many volumes on a variety of subjects, including ceremonial magic, yoga, poetry, and literature.
Aleister Crowley also established a number of covert societies and organizations, including the O.T.O. and the ∴A∴, both of which are still active today.
The core of Crowley’s Thelemic philosophy is the idea of the True Will, which he saw as the essential reason for each person’s existence. Crowley saw the pursuit of one’s True Will by Thelemites as a means to liberation and spiritual enlightenment.
