Hadit

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

The letters O.T.O. stand for Ordo Templi Orientis, the Order of Oriental Templars, or Order of the Temple of the East. O.T.O. is dedicated to the high purpose of securing the Liberty of the Individual and his or her advancement in Light, Wisdom, Understanding, Knowledge, and Power through Beauty, Courage, and Wit, on the Foundation of Universal Brotherhood.

U.S. Grand Lodge is the governing body of O.T.O. in the United States. It is the most populous and active branch of O.T.O., with 44 local bodies in 26 states as of February 2010.

If you are interested in becoming a member of Ordo Templi Orientis, see the membership page for more information. To find an O.T.O. body near you, consult our list of local bodies. Our FAQ answers many common questions about O.T.O. and Thelema. If you need further assistance, please write to the webmaster.

Success is your proof;
courage is your armour;
go on, go on, in my strength;
& ye shall turn not back for any!
— Liber AL III:46

Books are the perfect gift

As the traditional season of gift-giving approaches, remember that Thelemites love books, and that U.S. Grand Lodge has an Amazon affiliate bookstore. All of Amazon is available via our store, and anything you purchase from that starting point earns money for O.T.O. at no additional cost to you. You can give two gifts at once, without ever leaving your computer. It's just like magic(k)!
