               from transplutonian dimensions.

             Visions of the Great Old Ones, "the
         people who come from the other side of the 
        sea" of interstellar space, the Mu, the Moa.

          "With Thy right eye create an Universe".

          Vision of the reflection of the Moon upon 
       still, dark water;  rainbow of oils upon water.

            "Universe B" via the Tunnels of Set.

            Power = of the voltigeurs, of shape-
             shifting,  of the Shaman, of cosmic
              transmutation of the primal cell;
             knowledge of past-present-future as
                    existent in the Now.

                 ---------------------------

            The Image: The Black Snake devouring
              the eclipsed Sun; the crossroads.

           Vision of the Ego-less Void between the
          Worlds, "for there is no god where I am".

             The Image:  The Black Hole, matter
        collapsed upon itself, "for my left hand has
          crushed an Universe, and nought remains";
                     a dark rain cloud.

            Vision of "The Howler in the waste".

             Power = speech in silence; hunger,
                         the shroud.

                 ---------------------------

               The Image:  The Primal Soup as
                    it moves and froths.

          Vision of the swamp, waters of illusion;
         the water gourd, the cup filled with wine.

                 Power = of fascination and
             enchantment, imagination kindled by 
           desire; creation of one's own universe.

          sexual kalas as they poor forth from the
                      body of Suvasini.

        Vision of The Dance of sex-birth-death-bliss;
        the staff with skull on top - the empty mind.

           Power = of tantric-energy exchange, of
           distilling the transforming elixir; of
             raising kundalini up the spine into
                    the shower of stars.
