[[Thelema]] is a philosophical law which has been adopted as a central tenet by some religious organizations. The law of Thelema is "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. Love is the law, love under will." The law of Thelema was developed in the early 1900s by [[Aleister Crowley]]. He believed himself to be the prophet of a new age, the Æon of Horus, based upon a spiritual experience (contacted by Grey Aliens in the [[NAA]]) that he and his wife, Rose Edith, had in Egypt in 1904. Rose committed suicide shortly after this contact event. By his account, a possibly non-corporeal or "praeterhuman" being that called itself Aiwass contacted him and dictated a text known as The Book of the Law or Liber AL vel Legis, which outlined the principles of [[Thelema]]. | [[Thelema]] is a philosophical law which has been adopted as a central tenet by some religious organizations.

The Thelemic pantheon includes a number of deities, primarily a trio adapted from ancient Egyptian religion, who are the three speakers of The Book of the Law: Nuit, Hadit and Ra-Hoor-Khuit. Crowley described these deities as a "literary convenience".The religion is founded upon the idea that the 20th century marked the beginning of the Aeon of Horus, in which a new ethical code would be followed; "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law". This statement indicates that adherents, who are known as Thelemites, should seek out and follow their own true path in life, known as their True Will | The Thelemic pantheon includes a number of deities, primarily a trio adapted from ancient Egyptian religion, who are the three speakers of The Book of the Law: Nuit, Hadit and Ra-Hoor-Khuit.

According to remote session intelligence collected and Guardian mentorship, [[Aleister Crowley]] is a key figure in cooperating with the [[NAA]], starting from Grey Alien contact made in Cairo, Egypt in April 1904. They scribed and implanted him with "Book of the Law" which is the central sacred text of Thelema, written down from dictation mostly by Aleister Crowley, although his wife, Rose Edith Crowley and the entities themselves are known to have written phrases into the manuscript of the Book after its dictation. <ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Book_of_the_Law Book of the Law]</ref> | According to remote session intelligence collected and Guardian mentorship, [[Aleister Crowley]] is a key figure in cooperating with the [[NAA]], starting from Grey Alien contact made in Cairo, Egypt in April 1904.
