Thee aim ov this extensively revised edition is to bring this energy\nwe have gained, this l-ov-e we know, this magickal journey we share, to a new\nand wider circle. We know that those in contact with thee Temple are dedicated\nto a vision ov a fiercely Individual mode ov life, and it is our deepest desire\nthat this dedication be given every opportunity to find expression in thee face\nov thee cynical and reactionary hand ov Control. Thee method could not be simpler,\nand its potency cannot be denied. Thee Temple seeks to return to thee Individual\nall that is truly theirs, to awaken thee reality ov dreams, and to crush thee\nimposed con-ditioning ov a society scared to look itself in thee mirror, scared\nto place life ahead ov death.\nNo matter what difficulties we face from those who would deny us our way, thee\nTemple will continue to use every means at its disposal to ensure that we are\nnot thwarted. And thee most powerful weapon we have is thee Sigil, thee magickal\nprocess by which we charge our dreams and desires, and make manifest their living\nbeauty. It is to thee Sigil that this book is dedicated, and to all those who\nknow.\nEveryone who is active in thee Temple, who has freely given their coumitment to\nits aims, realises that this is no part-time easy answer that we give. It is a\ncase ov total coumitment; butter there is also no-one in thee Temple who has not\nfound that through this coumitment coums a new and vital energy that makes thee\nsacrifice an act ov L-ov-e, a way ov living that brings its own reward through\nthee development ov strength, purpose, and ov freedom from all that denies us\nour Destiny.\nThee TOPY network spans thee western hemisphere, its aim to create an alternative\nsystem ov Information Exchange to counter thee spread ov lies disseminated by\nthee mass media and thee governments ov Control. And thee growth ov thee network,\nthee continual development ov new Access Points in thee U.K., Europe and America\nis proof that we are winning. Lines ov coummunication grow stronger daily as we\nshare with each other thee experiences we have gained, thee lessons we have learnt,\nthee l-ov-e and anger we feel. So it is with thee Sigil. Just as we work to share\nall that is important to us with you, so by sharing your experiences with us we\ncan all move ahead together as Individuals; not as sheep who follow unthinkingly.\nIt is always a question ov independence. We are not here to convince thee doubters,\nto dominate thee weak, to act as crutch or place ov refuge. We are not saviours\nor dogmatists. Everything that is gained is from within thee Individual, only\nit was previously asleep. We simply help to awaken thee truth ov desire, and by\nthee development ov individual thought and responsibility show how it is possible\nto act on that knowledge.\nOur system is functional: that is, it works. And thee result ov this is that we\neach find our own way, not dictated to by others. We remain linked by friendship,\nnot by need; a friendship born ov true understanding and not simply thee freak\nov circumstance.\nThee Temple ov Psychick Youth is a network ov Individuals. That is how it should\nbe, and that is thee only requirement.","title":"Thee Sigils Book: Introduction","type":"page"}
