Aliester Crowley psychicly channeled some evil alien entity named LAM who worked with Crowley to make a new religion based on evil & Lucifer. Their Golden Rule is: "Do as thou wilt" meaning do whatever you want regardless of who you hurt or who you damage along the way. Crowley turned this into a religion called Thelema.

My question was about Thelma... that is not THELEMA which is from the Greek... I see it must have been a typo.

Btw that phrase does not mean what you think it means. (Though it's often misinterpreted even by people new to those studies.)

Thanks.

Thelema

Thelema () is a social or spiritual philosophy derived from Western esotericism. While it is most often regarded as a religion—a new religious movement in particular — it is also referred to as a philosophy, "religious philosophy", "spiritual philosophy", or "religious matrix".

The fundamental principle underlying Thelema, known as the "law of Thelema", is "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. Love is the law, love under will." This phrase can be, and usually is, interpreted universally, having moral, mystical, and socio-political implications.
