... Sigil of [Baphomet], the trademarked symbol of the Church of Satan, bespoke from the design used by the Knights Templar in the 14th
century -- an wrong side up pentagram containing a goat's main surrounded by five Hebrew lettering, one at each alarm of the pentagram. The
lettering spell out "Leviathan," one of the crown Princes of Hell....
...The organist... begins to be seen "The Sing of Satan," a ruination of Bach's "Jesu Meine Freude."... One of the female acolytes moves about the altar now, enlightenment the black candles in training.
...As the organist continues the "Sing to Satan," LaVey picks up a
significant brass sound, side it excellent the altar to honor it, and late revolves counterclockwise prior his associates.... He rings the sound nine epoch -- Satan's picture -- to acute the air, for that reason earnings the sound to its plae on the robe. Junction to his blond comrade he frequently unsheathes the sword she has unfilled him. LaVey points it excellent the altar of flesh and gravely intones his evocation. "In nomine Dei
nostri Satanas Luciferi excelsi!" The organist show business unarranged rumblings to say-so the Expensive Priest's words.
"In the name of Satan, Manager of the earth, Sovereign of the
world, I bind the armed of Solidity to assign their
Infernal power upon me. Bare wide the gates of Hell and
come forth from the gorge in outcome to your top figure
Unholy names:
"Satan extending the sword to the south. Noble of the
Infernal Regions;
"Lucifer turning to the East, Supplier of Reasonable and Wisdom;
"Belial turning to the North, Sovereign of the Earth;
"Leviathan turning to the West, Manager of the Tinny Run.
"Get forth and get your trusty brothers and sister of the
Left-Hand Stroll. Shemhamforash!"
The multitude shouts in response: "Shemhamforash!"
"Attack Satan!" chants the Expensive Priest.
"Attack Satan!" Their subversive cries ring out. The gong is struck.
One of the hooded assistants moves to the altar, lifts the sword from the Expensive Priest's hands and replaces it with the Glass of Elation
-- a silver schooner inclusive not with wine or even blood but with LaVey's draft favorite; Yellowstone bourbon. LaVey takes the chalice, food and drink momentously and passes it in the midst of his assistants, towards the end persistent it to his comrade, retrieving his sword.
The two stripped acolytes progress dispatch. One holds a candle slightly supercilious their heads. The other opens a significant black book in leading light of the Expensive Priest and holds it for him as he thrusts the sword aloft and reads in a shrill, reverberating voice:
"Perceive me, Dimness Ones. Outside in the midst of men and be pressed back
no longer. Get forth and frame wearing the immense councils
of live in defective, and scratch the ways of live in who would
bump into us.
"Sponsorship me the indulgences of which I speak! I assume active
thy name as a part of myself! I live as the beasts of
the restraint, do in the fleshly life! I honor the
ethical and curse the rotten!
"By all the Gods of the Pit, I bind that these bits and pieces
of which I speak shall come to pass! Get forth and
outcome to your names by manifesting my desires! Oh,
discover the names!"
LaVey fiercely growls the infernal names -- gods and goddesses bearing in mind recognized, revered; now despoiled and despoiled, despised and feared by all but Satanists. Loki, Balaam, Tchort, Mammon, Shiva, Asmodeus, Shaitan.
All planned evil by regular religions. The congregants consider
each name after LaVey. The appendage climbs to a crescendo and again the gong is struck three epoch. "Attack Satan!" the group shouts after
their Expensive Priest.
Just the once the infernal names are carry out LaVey recites a happen in the pre-biblical magician's address, Enochian. The syllables are ring out, gutteral yet unusually alluring.
"Ol sonuf vaoresaji, gohu IAD Balata, elanusaha caelazod;
sobrazod-ol Roray i ta nazodapesad, Giraa ta maelpereji,
das hoel-qo qaa notahoa zodimezod... Zodacare, eca, od
zodameranu! Odo cicale Qaa: zodoreje, lape zodiredo
Noco Mada, hoathahe Saitan!"
LaVey steps on the way to his guy Satanists, summoning them forth to speak their deepest requirements prior their Dimness Noble. Each person in his turn whispers his absorbed thoughts and wishes to LaVey....
As soon as each desire is certain aloud by the Expensive Priest, shouts of
"Attack Satan!" are certain by the congregants....
When the organist covertly show business triumphal strains in the venue, LaVey opens his cape wide prior the in the buff altar, his hands apprehended up in the Pin down of the Horns: two fingers on the increase to object the duality of Spirit with three substance fingers folded down in withdrawal of the Set apart Trinity.
"Leave out ye not what was and is to be! Flesh defective sin,
world defective end!"
He lowers his arms.
"All access ramp and pull out the Pin down of the Horns."
The members access ramp, illegal use their departed hands to return the sign.
As soon as set to the altar to off a traditional Pin down of the
Char-grill excellent her, LaVey shouts three "Attack Satans," with his multitude repeating each one. As soon as each, the gong booms
forth. The purifying sound is cut nine epoch bearing in mind elder, as the organist show business "The Sing of the Satanic Empire."
