While in Algeria in 1909, Crowley, along with Victor Neuburg, recited numerous Enochian Calls or Aires. After the fifteenth Aire, Crowley said he was told that he had attained the grade of Magister Templi (Master of the Temple), which meant that he himself was now on the level of these [[Secret Chiefs]], although this declaration caused many legitimate occultists to stop taking him seriously if they had not done so already. He also described this attainment as a possible and in fact a necessary step for all who truly followed his path. In 1947, when Aleister Crowley died, he left behind a sketch of one of the "Secret Chiefs", Crowley's invisible mentor that he called LAM. The sketch looks like a [[Grey Alien]]. <ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_Chiefs Secret Chiefs]</ref> | While in Algeria in 1909, Crowley, along with Victor Neuburg, recited numerous Enochian Calls or Aires.
