Tantra Magick

In this book you will find the first three sets of instructions for

the Tantrik group AMOOKOS (the Arcane and Magickal

Order of the Knights of Shambhala).

For the first time, we reveal publicly the methods, rites and

philosophy pursued by an inner group of initiates within the

Order.

This book shows how the esoteric strands of east and west

are fused together into a practical system which has as its

purpose the unveiling of the spiritual potential latent in every

individual. We take as starting point the assumption that

within each and every human is a divine spark or spirit. These

exercises are a means by which this spirit may be released

from the bonds of ignorance and can shine free.

Introduction

• Introduction

The Guru

His Holiness Shri Gurudeva Mahendranath (Dadaji) was born in London

in April 1911. From his early youth he had a deep interest in the occult

and spiritual patterns of the world. In his early twenties he chanced to

meet the infamous Aleister Crowley, Whose hyperbole stirred and

outraged Fleet Street in the twenties and thirties.

Crowley's advice to the young seeker was simple - go to the East

to learn more of the occult and wisdom patterns which had flourished

there from pre-Christian times. However, the Spanish Civil War - in

which Dadaji fought against the Fascists as a member of the Interna-

tional Brigade - and the second world War intervened.

It was 1949 before Dadaji left the shores of Britain to arrive,

penniless, in Bombay. There he was introduced by a mutual acquain-

tance to a sadhu of the Adinath cult. The Naths were at one time very

numerous and influential in India; there are nine subsects, one of which

is the Adinath cult. 'Nath', is Sanskrit for 'Lord' and is an epithet of

Shiva, the Lord of Yoga. Initiates have names ending in 'nath'.

One of the Nath initiates - Goraknath - devised or reintroduced

Hatha Yoga in the 1lth Century. The Nath cult was also responsible for

such works as the Hatha Yoga Pradipika and the Shiva and Goraksha

Samhitas.

The sadhu introduced to Dadaji was the last remaining Adinath

Yogi in all India, and was also the Adiguru or holder of the sacred line

of tradition. Unlike some of the other sects of Naths the Adinath's chief

interest was the Yoga of liberation from the restraining conditions of life,

and to become free from the Wheel of Samsara or death and rebirth.

Dadaji was initiated as a sannyasi by Adiguru Lokanatha, so becoming

the first Englishman to become a sadhu.

A sadhu may make only three demands: for shelter - the shade of

a tree; for clothing - rags. For food - leftover scraps. These conditions in

former times helped the seeker after wisdom to realise the transitory

and ultimately worthless nature of attachment.

In this the sadhus emulate the Guru figure of all India, Lord

Dattatreya. Datta is the legendary founder and guardian spirit of many

if not most of the Nath subsects. He represents a human being who has

swung free of the three gunas or threads of Hindu philosophy from

which the whole fabric of the Cosmos is said to be sewn. For this reason

he is often pictured as a naked man with three heads and six arms to

represent the Hindu Trinity of gods, Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.

Introduction

Tantra Magick

AMOOKOS - The Arcane and Magickal

Order of the Knights of Shambhala

For the next thirty years Dadaji wandered South East Asia as a

penniless sannyasi. His travels took him to Bhutan, where he was

initiated into the Kargyupta Sect of Tibetan Lamaism. He also travelled

to Malaysia where he became a Taoist priest and studied the I Ching,

and to Ceylon, where he was for a time a 'Bhikku of Theravada Bud-

dhism.

It may perhaps seem strange that a sannyasi of a Hindu tradition

could also become a lama, a bhikku and a priest, but as many of the

Eastern traditions recognize only sincerity in an aspirant for wisdom

and knowledge there is no essential contradiction in a person having

more than one guru or guide or seeking wherever an individual quest

may lead.

During Dadaji's Indian wanderings, he met and was initiated by

the last surviving Guru of the Uttara Kaulas of Northern Tantriks. He

also became an initiate of the Naked Sahajiya cult of Benares.

In this book you will find the first three sets of instructions for the group

AMOOKOS (the Arcane and Magickal Order of the Knights of Shambhala).

For the first time, we publicly reveal the methods, rites and

philosophy pursued by an inner group of initiates within the Natha

Community.

This book shows how the esoteric strands of east and west are-

fused together into a practical system which had as its purpose the

unveiling of the spiritual potential latent in every individual. Initiates of

AMOOKOS take as their starting point the assumption that within each

and every human is a divine spark, the Alpha Ovule, or spirit, which

simply had to be freed from the bonds or fetters of ignorance or

conditioning to shine free.

As a presentation of practical methods for working towards self-

knowledge, wisdom, and understanding, many may find the exercises

in the different grade papers indispensable. Much of the material will

not be found in any other tradition or teaching. Its rendering of the

basics and essentials of tantrik practice in simple language is also new.

AMOOKOS was started at the behest of HH Shri Gurudeva

Mahendranath. Wishing to transmit his own experience and the Nath

transmission, in 1978 Mahendranath passed the parampara or line of

transmission to a youthful 'seeker after truth'. At this point, the Adinath

Sampradaya was transformed into an international group (See Charter

below). Soon after, instructions were received to start a nine-grade

group within the Naths, and AMOOKOS was the result.

Dadaji collaborated with the compilers of this material at every

step, and approved their contents:

'the morning post arrived and another shake up with the grade raw

material. Astounding - will take some days to get through it step

by step.'14 March 1983.

'I have been wandering again through AMOOKOS grade 1 and 2

material. It is stupendous, nectar of the wise. You have certainly

produced a miracle explosion in the occult world.' 24 March 1983.

"The grade 3 papers are hyper-dimensional and this alone is a

masterpiece of collated wisdom and expression.' 16 November

1983.
