    The dervishes (or Sufis) have a saying, 'The dervish is the mirror of the dervish.' In other words, the universe is the mirror of the magickian's unconscious. Remember that face and you will never be dismayed for all is your realm to rule. For all will be plain to you. Whatever you experience will always and only be yourself. Whatever you change within your unconscious will always and only be the universe.

    It is perfectly acceptable to remind the universe the reason She was created. And if any of the gods or goddesses toy with thee, it is perfectly acceptable for you to toy with them! Threaten to destroy or burn their effigies, their sacred books, statues, altars, and so forth, if they ignore your sincere entreaties.
