US Grand Lodge Mission Statement

Mission Statement

Ordo Templi Orientis U.S.A. is the U.S. Grand Lodge (National Section) of Ordo Templi Orientis, a hierarchical, religious membership organization. Our mission is to effect and promote the doctrines and practices of the philosophical and religious system known as Thelema, with particular emphasis on cultivating the ideals of individual liberty, self-discipline, self-knowledge, and universal brotherhood. To this end, we conduct sacramental and initiatory rites, offer guidance and instruction to our members, organize social events, and engage in educational and community service activities at locations throughout the United States.

Other statements

In addition to the Mission Statement above, a number of other statements concerning the nature and goals of O.T.O. U.S. Grand Lodge have been produced by the Strategic Planning Committee. These are presented and discussed on the planning page.
