Peryt Shou (legal name Albert Christian Georg [Jörg] Schultz) (22 April 1873 – 24 October 1953) was a German occultist, pagan revivalist and theosophist.
He studied in Berlin and devoted himself to poetry, painting and eventually the secret sciences.
Aleister Crowley, while in Berlin showing his paintings, wrote in his diary for 11 February 1932: "[ Krumm-Heller ] here with Peryt Shou".
Shou argued that mantras were an important part of his yoga system that also involved controlled breathing and visualisation techniques.
As an occultist, Shou used "mantracistic prayers" to allegedly develop extrasensory abilities such as mind control and telepathy.
