Hubbard : "Now, he could simply say, "I have action." A magician - the
magic
cults of the eighth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, twelfth centuries in the
Middle
East were fascinating. The only modern work that has anything to do with
them is a trifle wild in spots, but it's fascinating work in itself, and
that's work written by Aleister Crowley, the late Aleister Crowley, my
very
good friend. And he did himself a splendid piece of aesthetics built
around
those magic cults.

Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O.) (Order of the Temple of the East, or the
Order
of Oriental Templars) is an international fraternal and religious
organization founded at the beginning of the 20th century. Originally it
was
intended to be tied to and modelled on Freemasonry,[1] but under the
leadship of Aleister Crowley was reorganized based on the Law of Thelema
as
its central religious and organizational principle. This Law-expressed as
"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. Love is the law, love
under will."-was established in 1904 with the writing down of The Book of
the Law by Aleister Crowley. Similar to many secret societies, O.T.O.
membership is based on an initiatory system with a series of degree
ceremonies that use ritual drama to establish fraternal bonds and impart
spiritual and philosophical teachings.

Jack Parsons
He was chosen by Aleister Crowley to lead Agape Lodge, the Thelemic Ordo
Templi Orientis (O.T.O.) in California in 1942 after Crowley expelled
Wilfred Smith from the position.
Parsons and Hubbard participated in a ritual known as the Babalon Working
which is famous in occult circles - loosely, it was an attempt to summon a
living goddess and change the course of history. They were aided in this
work by Sampson Bennetts of the Rosicrucian Order and his wife Sara Melian
Gabriel, a well known spiritualist from India.
The Hubbard/Allied relationship lasted until 1947, when Hubbard defrauded
Parsons of a sum of money and ran off with Sarah Northrup. Hubbard used
much
of this money from Allied Enterprises to promulgate and publish his book
Dianetics, which later evolved into and was superseded by Scientology.
