The rewrite of the history of Dr Felkin and Whare Ra, along with the 7=4 and 6=5 rituals is now out through Skylight Press, who also did my Magical Imagination book.
For those who saw the now improbably rare first edition, the book is much larger. It goes much more into the Whare Ra history from its beginning to closure. it looks at its involvement with Anne Davies and Paul Case and looks the the reason for its demise.
It also looks at the rituals and recounts some of the experiences of those who went through it and provides some of the teachings that they receieved. It also deals with some of my own experiences meeting and working with Whare Ra people.
Felkin has been dubbed the fool of the Golden Dawn by those who like to believe that the GD was working along masonic lines and that nothing was being channeled by secret chiefs. However all of the Golden Dawn was doing inner work, and all of them were channelling secret chiefs in some way. In that respect Felkin was no more foolish than Westcott or Mathers.
Reading of Felkin’s adventures is like something from a Victorian Boy’s Own magazine. He was a hard bitten missionary who travelled through Egypt during a war zone, met Gordon of Kartoom before he was killed. Avoided marterdom in West Africa and was an expert in tropical medicine.
I have to say the book would have been impossible were it not for the help received from Tony Fuller who helped considerably in providing me with information. More details can be found here.
