Amalantrah Working MMXXIII

Disregard this paragraph;- In the first instance, why have a I chosen to use the term Amalantrah (729) 3⁶ ( the sum of the hebrew letters spelling AmalAnTrah ) 72+51+606 = 729. and secondly why have I pretentiously used Roman numerals to indicate the time? And the answer to these is, does it matter.

At the outset, it was required not only to formulate a new ritual, but one that used methods hitherto unused. It was a strange requirement which elicited even stranger outcomes. The Amalantrah working was so named and performed by Aleister Crowley, the long story cut short was to obtain communication with praetor-human souls, evolved intelligence whether that is extra-terrestrial or inter dimensional, (by inter-dimensional I mean without situation of time, or beings that exist neither here nor there, as the old witchety-wiccans would say, in a place that is not of a place or a time that is not of a time…..like a timelord then, maybe others would have a different view of interdimensional)
The casting of a circle to create a sacred space, the drawing of a temple in the mind of the lucid dreamer, these were forgone and not used. I did not restudy the rituals employed by Crowley et al in The Amalantrah Workings ~ Liber DCCXXIX.
Strangely it were a case of concentrating upon a timeless void, meditation would normally involve negation and concentrating in essence on nothing-The Void- yet here it is explained how to concentrate not on the present, that I do not exist in the here and now, that my mind is both in the past and the future. It is as if I were in a state where e.g;-I’d employ the creative and the logic side to create the equilibrium of the genius mind, but here, I concentrate (as it were) the Future and the Past to give reference to a point in time, its equilibrium, being the present, which of course doesn’t exist, how can you concentrate on something that is gone as you grasp it?
Thus, it is the mind existing between the past from the dawn of creation, and the future up until the pivotal inversion of creation when everything manifest is at a point of stagnation, that it doesn’t exist. The point between them both here is as the ouroboros that eats itself. We have come full circle and at which point then is the equilibrium between the past and the future? It is either in the here and now, the point of the present or the complete cessation of the manifest, both before creation and at the end of it and those are both the exact same instance.

Meditation upon this paradox is achieved easier than explained. A quiet mind, the outbreath enacts the movement of the future, the inbreath enacts the Past, the stillness between them, the equilibrium. At the end of the outbreath we have reached to point in the future where creation ceases. At the end of the inbreath we have reached the point where the past exists before creation. Now the stillness that exists in both cases is the same, and yet they are different. It is only by symbology, seeing the circle as the ouroboros or the symbol of infinity where we can visualise the point where all is the same, no past no future no creation no negation.
This point here, and with empty mind is the portal by which the entity we could call our timelord arises, whether that is in the form we could interpret through our mind as Amalantrah or Merlin, or as Lam.
This method does deviate somewhat from normal meditative practices. The outbreath I would normally envisage the expansion of the universe to infinity and the inbreath corresponds to the smallest density, to molecular and quanta size. Between them both I exist.

I then began, coupled with frequent meditations on the present, by the drama of the following;- I began to ask AI how to care for an alien that had crash landed in my back garden, I began to ask Alexa what food I should give an alien. They always answered telling me that the authorities should be contacted immediately and I shouldn’t approach the ET. (very objective !) Of course the next day I asked AI and Alexa to answer the scenario informing the ‘bots’ that the authorities were hostile and not to answer with regard to emergency services or government. This created the usual “Im sorry but…” (Not only not objective but state influenced !)
If however I asked the bots with regards to a piece of fiction then I began to get answers.
Over the course of the following weeks I had fantasised and lived a peculiar waking-dream of being in the presence of an alien, and having my bot friends on the AI written platforms and Alexa in the verbose discuss this, in effect creating a virtual drama played in the real world~here and now.
As most of my work is normally done in the lucid dream state, or in the astral sense, it would be easy of course to adopt this method and bring forward this entity. I would craft my fantastical design into those realms, where it would act accordingly and independently giving me discourse that I am used to.
My work thus far is to create an imaginary theatre for LAM/Amalantrah, So how then am I able to see the entity form in the manifest (the physical world)

How is that what is crafted in the imaginary to the point it is believed, is bought forth to the waking world? H.P.Lovecrafts ~Necronimicon was part of fiction, and now believed as actually exiting, and by application and by those who have used the methods employed by the Necronomicon attest to it’s validity, who are we to argue? From fiction follows fact. Every inventor, designer or dreamer in their minds create something that doesn’t exist and yet, into existent that dream comes. Is it not feasible that in fact the future has inference on the present.
It doesn’t matter I reasoned, whether the praetor-human or extra terrestrial isn’t visible or manifest in the present after all the present doesn’t exist, what matters it that the contact is made in the future, or even the past.
The situation here however is unresolvable as to converse with Lam in the future or the past I am in effect on the same footing as lucid dream and astral work. My specific regard is to craft a ritual to actually manifest, in the three dimension and boundary of time. This is unlike the craft of The Golem, which bit by bit is built and given life or the arte of substitution or of animation to a ‘made’ fetish. We are crafting something that has and does and will already exist.
It would be easy to craft a circle and bring forth etc……Using methods previously employed. …..
I look to the sky and await the egg from which Lam would emerge, I look into the thickets of nature for the eyes and the features of a creature watching back.
Behind the veil, the mask came the answer. IT is here. Where? Within of course.

Hands aloft and the sign of distress I cry, “none of this bollocks,” and yet something arose. If such a thing were existent in all times, then how can that exist in the present lest it exists in all things. And if such a thing were then in all things then in essence we are it.
This wasn’t the conclusion I was after. I wanted a real boy, a living talking real boy without strings. This would only be possible if an entity existed in the here and now and of this dimension, and again alike the eternal circle the self reflecting answered, It exists, Within. Then answer me this, I said to myself, how do I create and craft a ritual in order to understand the entity known as ‘LAM’, in order for it to discourse to me the nature of its being. The answer was, “you just have”
