The Seven Ways

The seven ways to the attainment of the throne of chaos are not to be found on any map, but are represented thematically by the seven directions of space that surround the stone circle, and by the lords of the Old Ones associated with those directions. Four of the ways are linked with the outer lords and are not beyond the capacity of most devoted practitioners, but three of the ways are tied to the inner lords and require the utmost dedication. Of those three, the way of the center, which is the path of Azathoth, is the most daunting. As a consequence, most disciples are advised to attempt one of the outer gates that are marked by the threshold rods beyond the stone circle. Let it be understood that no path is more worthy than the other six, for all lead to the same destination, the throne of chaos.

It is the primary work of self-perfection for Masters of the Order to walk their chosen ways until they attain the black throne. Only by daily devotion to his path of attainment shall a Master be enabled to open the gate of Yog-Sothoth upon that way, and obtain the guidance of Nyarlathotep, the soul and messenger of the dancing gods. Only when guided by the Crawling Chaos shall a Master attain to the lowest of the ninety-three steps at the base of the chaos mount and climb them to the black throne.

The north gate is the way of Yig. It involves physical austerities and self-sacrifice, and the disciplining of the body through sustained postures and controlled breathing. Masters who follow this path will control their diet and will harden their bodies with daily exercise. They will cultivate self-discipline through denial of their impulses and passions. Trials of physical endurance that expose the body to hardship and fatigue will open the north gate. Masters who walk this path must take care not to damage the vehicle of their flesh through an excess of zeal. They make Yig their patron lord, and call upon this lord of the Old One for strength to endure, and for guidance in their austerities.

The east gate is the way of Shub-Niggurath. It relies on heightened sexual energies to awaken psychic and magic abilities. Masters who walk this path submerge themselves in pleasurable sensations, and indulge in various forms of sexual excess, in order to achieve the maximum arousal of sexual energy from its sleeping place at the base of the spine. They make the obscene goddess Shub-Niggurath their patroness and invoke her unceasingly into their lives, and into their beds. She comes to them in dreams and lies with them, and whispers the secrets they require to open the east gate. Masters who worship Shub-Niggurath as the key to the gate must have a care to avoid becoming so lost in pleasure that they forget their higher purpose.

The south gate is the way of Cthulhu. It requires intense training of the will, until it is made into a sharp weapon that can thrust through all obstacles and dominate all opponents.
