Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
Even as white light is dispersed by a prism into its constituent colours, we acknowledge that there is one spectrum of consciousness that constitutes an “imperceptible order,” an “eternal order,” or “the invisible order that has no name among men.” We recognise that a system of ascending consciousness, which coincides with or approximates this spectrum of consciousness, has been established as a curriculum for individuals whose will it is to move upwards in frequency within the invisible array. This curriculum is commonly titled The Great White Brotherhood known as the A∴A∴.
The A∴A∴ is a spiritual organisation dedicated to the advancement of humanity through individual progress through a graded system of attainment. The Order has a curriculum which it teaches and tests, and offers initiation to those who attain by its methods. The Order has existed in all ages and societies where men and women have sought truth but has seldom been named or known. The present Order known as A∴A∴ was founded by Fratres O.M. (Aleister Crowley) and D.D.S. (George Cecil Jones) in 1907, and was announced by its journal, The Equinox. Through the years the A∴A∴ has grown and developed along several branching lines or descent via a wide range of different initiates. The A∴A∴ in Albion is one such 'branch', and thus upholds the curriculum and traditions of the original Order while operating as an independent body.
The A∴A∴ is run along wholly spiritual lines and as such has no social organisations, schools, or other external structures, but is based on the age old tradition of teacher-student transmission. The Great Work is open to all who sincerely seek after L.V.X, and the N.O.X. which lies beyond. The A∴A∴ is constituted so as to facilitate this work by giving structure, discipline, and guidance from those who have gone before, and all instructing members of A∴A∴ in Albion have formally passed through the Outer College grades. We strive to uphold the spirit of the A∴A∴ enshrined in its founding documents to be of service to those who would walk the inward path to that 'Self' that passes all understanding. We invite all who are similarly disposed to cooperate with us in a spirit of fraternity, as we, individually and collectively apply ourselves to the work of realising in ourselves and in each other, the Quintessence, the Stone of the Wise, the Summum Bonum, True Wisdom and Perfect Happiness.
