    Just thought I would add my two cents worth to Peter's in-depth
    info. "true" love becomes a matter of definition. In terms of Kashmir
    Shaivism, for example, the only "true" love would be the love
    experienced after (during) union with the divine, Shiva, or the
    universal energy of consciousness. (this would not deny the realism
    of human love, however. Another subject for another time.)
    Also, St. Augustine also had a phrase very similar to this which pre-
    dated Crowley's.
    Crowley's version "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
    Love is the Law, Love under Will." has multiple references, including
    to sexual magick. There is also some indication to me that Bardon's
    version hints in that direction also, considering the material it is
    placed in context with.
    The original Pattern on the Trestleboard that Peter mentions referred
    to the various sephira at the numbers 1-10. Thus, subsitute the
    word "Foundation" for Love in line 9 and you have Paul Foster Case's
    original version, sephira 9 being the foundation.
