In the Kabbalistic Cross and LBRP (from the Golden Dawn rite), the words are:

Thou art the power and the kingdom and the glory forever.

In the Calyx (from the Aurum Solis rite), the words are:

Thou art the power and the kingdom and the majesty forever.

alt translation: Thou art the power and the kingdom and the glory forever unto the ages.



Okay:

In both cases: what/who exactly is being addressed?

i.e. What/who is the thou?

Greetings!

The way that I understand it, is that the "thou" refers to both the ritualist and the Divine Genius, HGA ,God or whatever one wishes to call it. I am mainly going by what I've read and am able to comprehend from works like the Kybalion where it says:" The ALL in the all, and the all is in the ALL". I could be way off ( and most likely am) as I am just now starting to really delve into the subject matter instead of just skimming through the stuff. Basically what I think it means is that ,since man is created in the creator's image, that at the core one is and is connected to the divine and that is the "thou" one is refering to.

Please feel free to tear this apart as reading over it again I think that I just confused myself!
