"Do What Thou Wilt Shall be the Whole of the Law". What are your thoughts on this?

Crowley was somewhat influenced by raja yoga and other eastern concepts. In my opinion, this adage (which Crowley borrowed from some French philosopher) means that a person needs to realize and act from his "true self"--which is the person who is there when all conditioning and artificial concepts and restrictions have been stripped away. Then one is a true self and acts accordingly, spontaneously and appropriately to the situation and without excuses, apologies, or regrets (ie, according to True Will).
