#>#Mr X recently told me that the "Caliphate" knew nothing about
#>#initiation-rituals-opening-chakras until appr. 1980.

#Whenever you quote below paragraphs, please omit each and every hint to the
#identity of the provider of that information.

I have no hint, so....  I will be archiving this letter unless you think
it contains 'hint'.


#you: what was instructed with the sexmagickal degrees aside from the Emblems
#and Mode of Use?
#X: The VII and VIII were given materials from the King books. De Arte Magica
#was also used.
#you: tantra/kundalini/yoga?
#X: McMurtry studied with the 3HO a [Sikh] organisazion and taught some of it
#to others.
#you: Are the Francis King-rituals considered as corrupted ...
#X: ...The King rituals were incomplete regarding passwords and abreviated
#phrases above II*, but they matched the records that I saw.

#and here's also what I asked about the chakra-story:
#X: [COTO] did not know about the chakras until 79-80.
#me: How did they find out?
#X: I think Wasserman found some sort of document, a marginal note by Crowley
#in a copy of the Equinox... I do know that Heidrick informed ... of the find
#and conveyed the information in a backward order.
