Introduction to LAM

I first started wondering about this since i came across a book called the watchers and did a search on it on google, the book was being recommended in the readin list by a satanic group. now i started thinking Why would a UFO book be included in the curribulum of a satanic group,John keel(Mothman Prohecies)believed the occult acitvity may be an ingredient of the grey alien mistery.

“Ufology is just another name for demonology,” John Keel told me, a week before the September 11th attack on the World Trade Center, which occurred just a couple of miles from where he lives.

…as noted in Mothman and Other Curious Encounters, page 114, (NY: Paraview, 2002).

this picture is a drawing made by the occultist Aleister Crowley of an entity or demon he had invoked repeatedly around the 1918's and called him Lam

The Englishman Aleister Crowley (1875 - 1947) was one of the most notorious occultists of his day, and perhaps of modern times. e wrote a number of textbooks on ceremonial magick, most of which are still in print today. He also founded and was head of a number of occult fraternities. In short, he exerted a significant influence on occult circles that has continued to grow dramatically, long after his death. Around January through March of 1918 Crowley began a series of magickal workings called the Amalantrah Workings in furnished rooms in Central Park West, New York City. These were a performed via Sexual & Ceremonial Magick (his spelling) with the intent to invoke certain "intelligences" to physical manifestation. In actuality, the workings typically manifested as a series of visions and communications received through the mediumship of his partner, Roddie Minor.

at least one such "intelligence" was brought into physical manifestation via the Magickal Portal they created. (A portal in this context is a "magickally" created rent in the fabric of time and space.) The entity that came through is the one pictured above left. Crowley maintained the picture is actually a portrait and drawn from real life. This entity called itself "Lam," Either way, he considered it to be of interdimensional origin, which was the term then for extraterrestrial.

Crowley included the portrait of Lam in his Dead Souls exhibition held in Greenwich Village, New York, in 1919. In that same year it was published as a frontispiece labeled The Way Kenneth Grant. was one of crowleys disciples around those times, there is no other commentary extracted from crowley about the subject other than that, Crowley gave the drawing to Grant in 1945.
