A reference to Rabelais...I think from Pantagruel?...one of the many sources
of the term rendered "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law."

Who or what is Rabelais & Pantagruel?
And this makes sense, in view of the whole "The Chariot"
description/meaning.
Thanks.

>Who or what is Rabelais & Pantagruel?
Here's a slightly adapted copy of a post I made to another newsgroup
on the subject of Crowley, TRINC and Rabelais earlier this year:
Crowley's use of "TRINC" in his writings tends to be very brief
mention.
Examples:
From Heart of the Master:
"The Two and Twenty Secret Instructions of the Master."
...
" VII.
The issue of the Vulture, Two-in-One, conveyed; this is the chariot of
Power. TRINC: The last oracle!"
From Magick without Tears:
"CHAPTER XXIII IMPROVISING A TEMPLE"
"And if the above remarks should embolden you to exclaim: "Perhaps a
little drink would do me no great harm" I shall feel that I have
deserved well of my country!
"For --- see Liber Aleph, after Rabelais --- the Word of the Last
Oracle is TRINC."
From Confessions:
Section 81:
"The Urn is engraved with a word or symbol expressive of the nature of
the being whose ash is therein. The Magus is thus, of course, not a
person in any ordinary sense; he represents a certain nature or idea.
To put it otherwise, we may say, the Magus is a word. He is the Logos
of the Aeon which he brings to pass.<<Footnote: Cf. Rabelais: the
final secret is in the bottle inscribed TRINC.>>"

Francois Rabelais was born about 1494 and died in 1553, in what is now
France.
The reference in Rabelais is to a planned visit by Pantagruel and
Panurge to the Oracle (Bacbuc) of the Holy Bottle -- which begins with
a discussion of the meaning of a bottle, whether full or empty, and
the likelyhood that one's wife will be a sot or not. They reach the
Oracle after sundry adventures, head off again and get back to the
Oracle again toward the end of the book. After a good snort from the
sacred flask, Panurge enlarges on the sacred word in a poem:
"Trinc, trinc; by Bacchus let us tope,
And tope again; for now I hope
To see some brawny, juicy rump,
And tickle't with my carnal stump.
E'er long, my friends, I shall be wedded,
Sure as my trap-stick has a red head;
And my sweet wife shall hold the combat,
Long as my baws can on her mum beat.
O what a battle of a-- fighting
Will there be! which I much delight in!
What pleasing pains then shall I take
To keep myself and spouse awake!
All heart and juice, I'll up and ride,
And make a duchess of my bride.
Sing Io paean! loudly sing
To Hymen, who all joys will bring.
Well, friar John, I'll take my oath,
This oracle is full of troth;
Intelligible truth it bears,
More certain than the sive and shears."

As to further significance, consider Crowley's ritual, the Star
Saphire,

Somewhere near you, at least in most large cities and even most towns, will
be a primitive, though high capacity, relational database, housed in a large
building. It will contain, among other things, box after box of paper slips
containing data regarding books and their authors. As well as reference works
(I would recommend a beauty called The Reader's Encyclopedia, though
Brittanica or Americana will have references on Rabelais as well).
I forget what the heck they called them (this technology was installed before
we had the internet to handle our research needs)...oh crud, what were they
called...liberries? Something like that.
Even a net search would provide you some data on the writer named Rabelais and
his two best known works, Gargantua and Pantagruel.

Are we being sarcastic today, Paul?
How unlike you.

Just a thought, but was the subject possibly treated in more detail in
"The Urn"?
The quote from "Heart of the Master" would seem to refer to the
beginning of the aeon of Hrumachis, and thus to refer to a distant
event.
I'll say, everyone knows they're media
centers or research facilities.
