ORDO TEMPLI ORIENTIS

INITIATION RITUALS

THE DEGREE OF PERFECT INITIATE (PI)

1. The altar is in the West. Upon it, there is The Book of the Law, a candle, a
skull or another death-related object, a cup of “hellish brew” / the agent of
annihilation, and a parchment with the Oath of the Abyss.
2. Light the candle. Recite Liber Cheth. Perform a short meditation / set
your mind on the “end not known” / nothingness.
3. Recite and sign the Oath of the Abyss.
4. “I invoke annihilation.” Banish, with proper rituals or other techniques,
all imaginable entities, qualities, energies (elements, planets, Zodiac signs,
etc.). During the banishment of the entities, etc, that are the most “clinging”
to you - drink from the cup for the dissolving of the bonds.
5. “There is no limit! From Many – to One and All, from One and All – to
Nothingness!” Pass through the astral gate, wearing the O.T.O. lamen,
vibrating ABADDON. There is no one in the temple. There are no
instruments on the altar or around it; instead, a skull and a candle are
placed on it. Come to the skull and greet it with five kisses. Stand for a
while in the centre of the temple, imagining that this temple is built by you,
and is yourself. Come to the veil and open it. Now, boxes of explosives can
be seen in the corner beyond the veil in the light from the lamen. Plant the
explosives on perimeter of the temple and light the fuse with the candle.
Experience the destruction of the temple as annihilation of your individual
“self”.
6. Extinguish the candle on the altar in the West, destroy the altar and The
Book of the Law. Make the sign of annihilation. “Abaddon! The Opening of
the Eye!”
7. “I name myself the Perfect Initiate. Abaddon! I throw myself into the
chasm of being – into the Abyss! Annihilation! The end of all!”
8. Drink the “hellish brew”, enjoying the open infinite gestalt of being until
you faint.
