ENFLAME THYSELF IN PRAYING
Hermetic Library Ministry of Information
“But the secret of success in invocation has not hitherto been disclosed. It is an exceedingly simple one. It is practically of no importance whatever that the invocation should be 'right'. There are a thousand different ways of compassing the end proposed, so far as external things are concerned. The whole secret may be summarised in these four words: 'Enflame thyself in praying.'“—Chapter XV Of the Invocation
“Humiliate yourself before God and His Celestial Court, and commence your prayer with fervour, for then it is that you will begin to enflame yourself in praying, and you will see appear an extraordinary and supernatural Splendour which will fill the whole apartment, and will surround you with an inexpressible odour, and this alone will console you and comfort your heart so that you shall call for ever happy the Day of the Lord.”—The Magician
“In the expression which will be used in Chapter XV: “Enflame thyself”, etc., only the first stage is specified; but if that is properly done the other stages will follow as if by necessity.”—Chapter III The Formula of Tetragrammaton.
