Invocation of the Lord of the Universe
Israel Regardie
O Lord of the Universe,
The Vast and the Mighty One!
Ruler of the Light and of the Darkness,
I adore Thee and invoke Thee!
Look Thou with favor upon me,
Who now standeth before Thee.
And grant Thine Aid
unto the highest aspirations of my soul,
That I may be enabled to accomplish the Great Work
to the glory of Thy Ineffable Name. Amen.
