Greetings, All,
I often resist these introductions as I never quite know what to say, but figured I should introduce myself now that I am beginning to be a bit more active on this discussion board.
My primary attraction to the Typhonian Tradition was through Michael Staley's articles, Going Beyond and Heart of Thelema. I've been slowly reading through the Starfire editions of the Typhonian Triologies as they are released, and have also read At the Feet of the Guru.
My background, magically, finds its roots in Thelema, Buddhism (vajrayana and chan/zen), Tantra (Shaiva, Shakta) and Dzogchen.
I share an interest with many on this forum in Surrealism, the Symbolist poets and others who also seem to have inspired Kenneth Grant.
Professionally, I teach philosophy and religious studies classes here in West Chester, PA (where I reside). My primary area of specialization is in Japanese Buddhist philosophy.
I've read through almost every post on this forum and want to say that I feel tremendously inspired by the work that you are doing and sharing, and look forward to further exploration of Kenneth Grant's work, and the work of others associated with the Typhonian Tradition.
Best,
Charlotte

Artaud's The Theatre and its Double reads a lot like a grimoire at times. I dig that book.
