The E.G.C. Gnostic Mass is the central Public and Private rite of the Ordo Templi Orientis. Its beauty is expressed through the passion play designed for the Gnostic Catholic Church by Aleister Crowley. It is through this that the Ecclesiastical community is established, with a forum for members and guests to gain a direct experience of the Divine. Through their participation they build the necessary components wherewith to appreciate in an ever developing manner, Gnosis. Star Of I.S.I.S. Lodge performs Masses on a regular basis in service to the O.T.O. and the E.G.C..
Let the rituals be rightly performed with joy & beauty! There are rituals of the elements and feasts of the times. A feast for the first night of the Prophet and his Bride! A feast for the three days of the writing of the Book of the Law. A feast for Tahuti and the child of the Prophet -- secret, O Prophet! A feast for the Supreme Ritual, and a feast for the Equinox of the Gods. A feast for fire and a feast for water; a feast for life and a greater feast for death! A feast every day in your hearts in the joy of my rapture! A feast every night unto Nu, and the pleasure of uttermost delight!
