Thanks R K. I think both articles are probably one and the same, or at least both are by Jay Dyer. In the link I posted, the writer identifies himself as "Jay 008". Otherwise it's a remarkable synchronicity.
On Crowley and the so called "Paris Incident" with the alleged invocation of Pan as detailed by Wheatley, this seems to be discredited here. The sad facts are that Crowley was a pompous liar and a morphine addict and, as I have earlier noted elsewhere, the only time he ever found real love was with his infant son born when Crowley was already an old man and stumbling towards death. But at least he found it. His life prior to that was a rampage against his strict upbringing by his Plymouth Brethren parents, which I believe psychologically damaged him.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
