International Teaching And Travels Of Late

I always smile when one of my students tells me that he can't wait until he graduates and can read only what he wants to read. That day never comes. I know that he has this image of free time, rest, and endless days with his only major decision being which game to watch, or which book to read. Unfortunately, for those in any ministry, reality always maintains a demanding stack of books and articles that must be read. Sorry, but that's how it is. I even imagine people walking into heaven and receiving a stack of books to read (no, not really... but then again, it wouldn't surprise me). All that to say, imagined free time is usually simply that, imagined.I am on my first sabbatical this semester. For the last seven years, I think I imagined being able to spend it holed up in a cabin in the...

Therefore, First Order is ordered by Second Order when to abandon lore and procedures; and in return, Second Order is guided by the Third Order (Secret Chiefs). This answer is all and fine, provided that you are actually in a Strict Obedience/Observance Order, and are willing to take orders. But most working magicians, or at least the ones that I have dealt with,...
