Oscar/Oskar R. Schlag
Jane Wolfe, Karl Germer, Marcelo Ramos Motta
I had the pleasure of meeting Oscar Schlag (b. 1907) on thirty occasions prior to his passing in 1990. Of these, twenty-eight took place within the confines of his two residences — one his primary abode, which housed an extensive occult collection, the other located directly across the way in an apartment building. On two occasions, he visited my own residence, where we even engaged in collaborative culinary experiments.
The documents presented below genuinely astonished him. He could not have imagined the degree to which he had impacted the individuals mentioned in these writings. Evidently, Schlag did not take all of this especially seriously. At our very first meeting in the mid-1980s, he remarked with considerable surprise: “Why?! The O.T.O. still exists?” On this webpage, the documents are presented without additional commentary. It is therefore essential to take into account Schlag’s own remarks, corrections, and retrospective observations, which may be found right here. |

The fallacies circulated by Motta’s successors and self-anointed spiritual heirs after his death in 1987 speak amply for themselves — and need no further documentation here.
