Abrahadabra Oasis is an official body of the
Ordo Templi Orientis
(O.T.O.) located in Portland, Maine.
Its mission is to provide and support the growth of a
Thelemic community in northern New England.
The core principles of Thelema are based on the writings
of its principle exponent and prophet of the New Aeon,
Aleister Crowley (1875-1947). Its foundational document,
Liber AL vel Legis,
also known as "The Book of the Law", was received in
trance over the course of three days - April 8, 9, and 10, 1904 -
while Crowley was in Cairo, Egypt. The O.T.O.
was the first of the Old Aeon magickal orders to accept
and integrate the principles of the Book of the Law, a tradition
that continues to this day through the work of the many O.T.O.
bodies around the world. |
