THE PRECPTS OF BAPHOMET REGARDING INDIVIDUAL STANDARDS

-The individual is self-defining; the definition of the self is a transitional act which should always be fluid and consistent, avoiding stagnation.

-Seek to be only a more perfect version of your personal ideal. Know what you are. Pretend not to be what you wish you were.

-The desires of the self should never be ignored, but rather explored and understood, for from the awareness of self comes true wisdom.

-The individual should strive to be their own guide, regarding all advice with suspicion, and all laws as suspect.

-Seek lessons from nature, note the storm is unapologetic, the sun burns as easily as warms, and the wolves live without any delusions or doubts.

-To thine own self be true, embrace the family that supports you, ensure that friends and enemies are worthy of your attention, and tolerate others only at your own discretion.

-As above, so below. The universe is reflected in the mind of the individual. Reality is shaped by the finely honed will.

-Give unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s. Take that which is yours without malice or enthusiasm. That which is deserved is earned and should not be the burden of another.

-Freely give only that which you will not miss. Take not that which you do not reimburse. Charity is a shackle.

-Do as you will, lest what your will denies another of this right.

-Seek justice for yourself, allowing no one to escape your vengeance. Do not allow apathy to condone the poor judgment of another.

-Act with intelligence, wit, and reason, so that no one can deny you.

-Let children be children, emulate their innocence without tarnishing their purity.

-Seek beauty in all things.
