/fringe/ - Fringe

Beginner Spirituality Thread

A thread to our Neophyte's and wanderer's

I thought I had to give you guys one more gift before I depart fringe for a while. My work has become very important to me right now, so much so that I need to dedicate all of my time to it and cannot be here answering questions or doing writeups. I'll come back once I'm called by the same ones who asked me to do these writeups and share the new information and experiences I've gained. I've linked ample amounts of resources and guides for you to be able to develop and progress yourself in that time. Though I've always tried to give the fundamental principles to everything so you can take it on and make it your own. That's my hope for everyone that they can take this work and make it their own, become their own master and learn to self create and source.

Requirements

It's required that you start up a meditation routine and also that you source a copy of the Kyballion for study of the 7 Hermetic principles. I also suggest reading the other threads I've put out to try gain a holistic understanding. You need to understand your own energetic anatomy. The chakras, dan tiens, yin yang and chi. Most of this comes with the Hermetic laws though. I also suggest reading some basic philosophy be is Daoist, Buddhist, yogic or other. Try to keep away from what bores you.

Introduction

Hello and welcome to another thread. This is a thread dedicated to initializing and starting your journey on the path. It will serve to alleviate many common pitfalls and mistakes which come with being a neophyte. Coming into spirituality or the greater esoteric can be troubling and difficult due to the scarcity of entry level information or general explanation on what the subject really is and can offer. I hope to clear up some of these problems by creating another practical style thread where you will be given write ups to read and exercises that develop fundamental occult requirements and skills. Some of the subjects to be covered here is on what the path really deals with and is, on meditation, meditational postures, breath, energetic anatomy, proper practice, pitfalls and mistakes, dealing with your newfound ego, health and how it relates to the occult and most importantly the seven Hermetic principles. I ask you to work with me by dedicating your time to understanding and developing what I give. The rewards are plentiful and well worth it. You will only get out exactly what you put in.

Why do we walk the path?

Simply put it's the power of a God we desire and achieve. Magic of all forms is simply a tool to impose ones will upon the world. Like the children who play with lego blocks or in sand pits. This world becomes all the more like a dream or a game the more you walk the path. Energetic cultivation is a complementary side of the coin which deals in internal cultivation of one's own self. This helps to develop the will and spills out to development of health and wellbeing. The more energy and power you have the stronger your magic becomes. Since everything costs money or energy it means you need to build it up. Except our world runs on cycles so you must be like a farmer who plants his seeds and invests within your own talents.

Creative energy, it's what fuels your God like abilities. To be a God is to create. Those who create art control the flow of energy and attention. The simple act of creating art which could also be called a physical form of magic is what creates reality. Your own expressions influence others by the emotions and desires caused. This stirs up inside of them until they act with their own willpower. Why do you think every corporation has their own art division be it graphic or sound work. Who do you think is influencing the younger generation which could be thought of as a window into the future? Take a look at post your own video services like Youtube or reading entertainment sites like Reddit or facebook. Start to take advantage of this knowledge by becoming a creator of whatever it is you want. All consumption is a form of mind control, be it good or bad. This is why we might think of magic as a form of self or other mind control. And what is the first Hermetic law? All is mental. Reality is in the mind. Remember this as you will come to understand it experientially as you progress.

The divine spark

There comes a time in life where man cannot keep up his false act. He can no longer keep lying to himself and filling himself with drugs in order to dull and dilute the experiences. Dugs in this case meaning consumption of any kind. He starts to realise more parts of his inner being. He sees the world as if it were a B movie, a joke. Everyone around him appears automated as if he were living in a false world full of robots and slaves. Lies told through the media no longer effect him and food looks as if it's equivalent to plastic. Every part of the material human world starts to become dull and he seeks purpose and meaning from within. Nihilism, apathy and depression are common at these points. This may take him to such fields like philosophy and psychology at first. Having already dealt with the sciences or other intellectual fields. Or possibly he seeks meaning through art, having evolved his tastes. Through all these pursuits which seem to kindle the inner flame he still feels wonder and curiosity as to what might be one step beyond.

You're a wonderer cloaked in darkness clutching a lantern which burns away fear and shines with awe. Eye wide open being guided by the soul, the self. This is one of many "beacons of light" that you will be guided and lead towards. Think of it as a pit stop where you can stock up on esoteric snacks to get you through the journey.

The Higher self - The God

The higher self, the holy guardian angel, God, call it what you will. Your objective is to cultivate your connection to this divine and subtle force. It rests within the upper Dan tien within your head. This is what you might think of as the 7th sense. A sense of self. To know thy self is to know the world. Knowledge of self is knowledge applicable to anything and everything. It's the subtle voice which gives you helpful advice throughout your entire life. A voice so quiet and calm that you may miss it all together and completely disregard it. Build up a connection with this part of your being as it will serve you throughout your entire life and beyond. Heaven is the area above and upwards which houses the upper three chakras. Focus on this area in your head any time you need to perform heavily complex intellectual/ creative work or spiritual work. It controls all of the glands which deal with our occult work.

The self - The Man

Within your heart and emotions are your true feelings and intentions. Learn to connect with this centre and understand your emotions. We call this part of you the solar personality or who you truly are. You could think of it as your actualized god self. What forms of expression do you take interest in? Be it of the arts, science, or other fields of development and creation. This is where your true potential waits. They call it the void, a space between worlds. In this case heaven and earth - the higher self and lower base nature. Quite simply put this is you. Not the lower you who only thinks of food and drink or the super spiritual you who desires ascension but the "you" behind the ego. Our solar plexus - the ego could be thought of as an aegis to the heart. Put yourself in this area and feel what it is like. Here's a helpful and well explained guide that another practitioner had sourced out. You will generally focus on this area when you need to become your "self" to perform "human" work. So it's good for using the emotions.

The lower self - The beast

This is where I would estimate around 80% of humans are stuck on. Think about what the three lower chakras represent. Survival, sexuality, desire and ego. Your Godly creative energy is pushed up to the head via the coccyx pump. As long as you're ejaculating, digesting, clogged up with waste and losing control of your anus/perineum(The root of you) due to fear then you're not going to make it. Not that I advice stopping all of these completely. But learning moderation and control. Even a drug addict who spends all his day eating and ejaculating can unlock all the powers of the higher centres through qi-gong or other occult practices. Though a building without a foundation becomes unstable and collapses sooner or later.

This dan tien is located in the lower naval. Try to locate your naval, go down a few inches and then inwards. This is where you will want to keep your focus and be centred during idle times. It allows the body to recharge and regain energy. Breathe deeply using the diaphragm (Means you will breath quietly and softly) down to this area. You will notice your digestion becoming faster and your entire body heals old problems which it could never fix if you work on cultivating this area.

Chi - subtopic

The short descriptions should suffice for the time being. If you wish to go on and study more work you might want to know that the upper dan tien deals with shen, your spiritual energy and force. The middle dan tien deals with chi. The lower dan tien houses what we call original force or original chi. This is the combination of yin and yang chi. It supports your life and vitality. While the kidneys also deal with a special substance called jing which is like the more yang version of chi. Fiery and quick, a force that martial artists use to break bone with their fists. Jing also heavily dictates your own life force and vitality. It can be lost through ejaculation or menstruation if no practices are upheld. I divert this topic so that you can gain exposure and have a small reference point when you read more advanced texts.

The Ego and Friends

Most of you will find that once you become conscious and switched on that everyone seems to look like a robot. Automated to perform their cycles and habits, usually in a downward spiral. Materialistic and petty they may look. You also start to develop an ego which disallows interaction with your old world. You may give up hobbies and entertainment as well as friends in order to work on your occult studies and practices. Seeing the esoteric as your one and only goal and the rest of life as merely a distraction. I will pre-warn you. Don't.

Some of your friends may need to go or be distanced, but not all. Try to develop and learn humility, to understand these peoples circumstances. Don't force esoteric or occult topics onto them if they respond negatively. At first it may seem dull to interact and talk about other topics than your current new interest, but you need to understand that your interests will change or decline in cycles. Forcing consciousness on one who is not ready can be potentially dangerous, but chances are they will just ignore you and become irritated.

If you still wish to share the joys of occultism to your friends then you will simply need to show them what can be done as using yourself as an example. Show them how you've changed and improved yourself heavily. How your health has strengthened, intelligence improved, finances and business booming and creativity immense. People view the entire world through their own lenses meaning that your voice will seem as their own. What this means is that instead of telling people about the esoteric you must use questions. "Do you believe in this?" "Have you tried this?" "Why do you think that?" etc. This forces them to test their own beliefs and understandings, eventually breaking down any pre-imposed shells and defenses.

An important part of this work is not to make it your entire life. If all you do is study or practice then you will burn out sooner or later or go through cycles of insanity and apathy. Learn balance as taught in the dao. Some people call this the middle path. Esoteric work must always be balanced with mundane hobbies or entertainment to keep you grounded and stable within this world. Internal cultivation must be balanced with external cultivation. This means meditation and exercise (we'll go over that more later). Do not forsake your "old" self but instead improve upon it. If you enjoyed playing basketball as an unconscious human you can still enjoy it while being conscious. While there are some hobbies and sources of entertainment which become stale or stagnate through awakening, others can gain more interest. There's a thread up about occultism in videogames, anime and other things if you wish to know how much it's out there.

Crazy wizard syndrome - Subtopic

This is linked into the past topic. It's what happen when you awaken the higher centres too early. I'm sure we've all ready about someone or have experienced this for yourself. When you first enter into this work it makes you go a little crazy(especially with kundalini). All of your hidden mental illnesses and tendencies come out in full force. You simultaneously act from the third eye and root chakra. Becoming paranoid about demons or other common spiritual fear mongering. Remember folks. Being a wizard does not mean you're mentally ill or should use it as a justification for mental illness. Do as Crowley said by being almost like a scientist. You should not blindly believe and always try out everything for yourself. Your own experience is the only and final truth. Does it work? This is why journaling is extremely important (among other uses).

If you're reading this and you have crazy wizard syndrome then I heavily suggest to take regular salt baths, eat grounding vegetables and other dense heavy foods. Try to expel as much energy as you can through interacting with physical reality and ground yourself on the earth. Stop all energy work that goes beyond the heart area. Watch some show, or read some /pol/. Try to work on your lower dan tien and gain proper experience or find a teacher to help guide you if you're uncomfortable about doing it on your own.

Thinking for yourself and proper learning

There's a couple of items you need for proper learning. First is a mind, a will, a body and a journal. When you learn do not only mindlessly consume to later on regurgitate words which you've not digested or tried. Everything I write has a price. You must uphold the law of equal exchange by using this information. Try it all out for yourself or at least try to understand it. After every writeup, chapter, video, talk or other piece of information you consume, try to think about it. Simply pondering and trying to "understand" it will allow the information to digest. If it's a piece of practical information then try it out. Try it and see what happens. Use a journal to mark down results. You may not understand what it is you're doing while performing a ritual for example but the act of doing it means you've exposed yourself to it. And later on this will lead to true understanding. An armchair theorist is better of spending his time back on 4chans /b/, /v/ or better yet, facebook. Consuming without the intention to at least use it sooner or later is a waste of both your time and the creators.

I write this in the hopes of YOU bettering YOUR life. To advance YOURSELF. Reality is a shitty game when you're unenlightened and unawake. It's time to learn this game and take CONTROL over it.

What I also want to say is that you must become your own master. We ourselves are the only masters who we can ever follow and have. Other people simply act as teachers to help you self learn and remember. So stop looking for a guru or master because there is already one inside of you. To learn thyself is to learn the universe.

Knowledge of the Hermetic laws is knowledge of the fundamental laws of the universe. Use them for everything.The second Hermetic law is the easier to start using. You may want to look at your room or house and see how it relates to your current states or observe what people say and see how it relates to the internal. Internal - External, Macrocosm - Microcosm.

Alright here's some homework for you all. I want each and every one of you to start creating. Use that creative energy inside of you to change reality and bend it to your will. Start using it for something other than satisfying the lower three chakras.

You can create anything be it a piece of art, a song, a youtube video, 8chan thread, a cake, a poem or it can even be something basic if you don't have many art skills like a bad ms paint or photoshop picture. Make memes, entertain all of fringe or whatever homeboard you frequent with your own custom memes.

Create it and study the relations between your own creation and your self. Through creation we learn about our solar personalities. Creation is not restricted to art as well. Something like metal work, carpentry or even lifting weights is good.

Mindfulness meditation - The occult portal

Mindfulness meditation is the first and most important practice for your entire occult journey. It's as if you're learning the alphabet of a new language. How can you even comprehend a book without first learning the alphabet? Meditation is any mental activity or exercise. Mindfulness is specifically like mental weight lifting or cardio training. It is simply the act of observation, of being present, conscious and aware. This exercise trains your mind to rid its self and thin out the "monkey chatter". What happens if you try to do exercise but your limbs flail around in all directions? Monkey chatter is the mind mental equivalent of this. Not only in the occult science is this a handy (required) skill but also in physical reality. Mindfulness allows you to enter a state of third person observation. Meaning you no longer have to be controlled by your body, mind and emotions. You become the driver in the vehicle. Think of a situation over social interaction where you may have become fed up and lost your head. Mindfulness will show you performing this and at higher levels you are able to make subtle adjustments or use emotional alchemy to change your current state.

First step in our practice is to pick an asana or posture. Preferably not laying down in bed. Try to think of this as your new natural seated position outside of the computer chair. With time you can spend hours in this posture as it will become more comfortable than any chair. I recommend padmasana, though this requires a daily stretching routine to achieve comfortably. If you're currently unable to perform the full lotus position I recommend taking the Zen kneeling position. Once the posture has been selected you may also select an area to meditate. I suggest the outdoors if you can manage it. If not try to find a tranquil room with an open window as fresh air is essential to practice. Begin the practice with your eyes closed, perineum pulled up lightly and anus closed and tongue touching the roof of your mouth either behind the teeth, on the hard palate or soft palate. These all act to close the microcosmic orbit and keep your energy flow proper. Start of by focusing completely on your breath. Become conscious and aware of your rhythm. Breathe using the diaphragm. This causes the breath to become light and silent. It should be drawn in from the lowest point you can - around the lower naval. Your awareness will then shift to the lower dan tien. Find your naval, travel a couple inches downward and then travel inward. You may feel a magnetic or empty void like fleshy area. Try to feel the breath travelling down into this location. As for tips, you will want to avoid feeding thoughts. Allow the thought to be, and then dissolve like a cloud floating past your awareness. If you do succumb to thoughts do not grow angry or displeased. As the art of meditation takes much time to grow accustomed to and develop.

Preferably you will want to do this during the morning for around 5 minutes to start. Eventually build up to 15 as you feel it is required. This practice is required above all others. More important than your morning coffee, cigarette, breakfast, walk, shower, clothing or other. Do it. No excuses. If you don't have the discipline to meditate 5 minutes a day then you need to develop it.

Learning from within - The super consciousness

Previously I mentioned becoming your own master and self learning - developing critical thinking. Now that we've learnt to control our mind through meditation it's time to put it to use. Through meditation we enter trance states. Beta being our conscious mind - the regular awake and every day state. Alpha being the subconscious mind - a primal, instinctive and relaxed state. After that are the deeper states of consciousness where the true magic happens. Around delta and theta you start to tap into your superconsciousness. Have you ever come up with great ideas after a night of rest, nap or other meditational like activity? Chances are you pulled it from the superconsciousness. This is where prophets, oracles, seers, shamans and other popular "holy men" get their supplies of spiritual bud from - void pusher. Anyway we're going to learn how to tap into this. It's also a method of communicating with your own internal guidance system - the higher self.

First we need to go over entering trance states for the neophytes here. Before you begin meditation you're in beta state. When you first start the meditation, close your eyes and focus on the breath to enter alpha. After around 1-5 minutes (If you're a neophyte. Around 1-5 seconds for more experienced people) you will hit the theta state. An easy test is opening your eye lids lightly to see if there is a "static rain". Like hazy tv static. Otherwise keep your eyes closed and try to visualize. Depending on how easy it is will depend on your current state. We want to go as deep as we can to get the best results. Methods to deepen a trance include total breath focus and visualizing yourself falling or climbing downwards on a ladder/elevator. Ideally you're just trying to let go of your body and conscious mind. The conscious mind is a bit of a combination between the ego and solar personality or heart. It's the mind that's reading this right now and consciously inserting ideas, thoughts and other personality quirks into this text. The subconscious mind is the one which understands internally the words, phrases and combinations - the calculations under the hood. So you're really trying to let go of and dissipate both the body and mind. Allowing yourself to fall into the void. Be careful as you may go into a meditative coma or sleep (same thing) and find yourself remembering you exist an hour or two later. Not too fun. This happens around delta level which is what we enter during non rem sleep. Rem is in theta as this allows for minor conscious interaction.

If you can successfully perform everything up to this point then congratulations, you've hit one of the master states of internal work. If not well keep trying. I would spend around two hours a day practicing trance meditation for over a month and a half to figure out and cultivate this knowledge. Learn from my mistakes. This work is easier than you think it is as long as you can trust yourself. Anyway, once you hit this state it's time to get to work. If you've read my astral tutorial then you might recall most of this as being similar practice. Once you feel you're in a deep enough trance state or have adequately tried for about 5-10 minutes then start calling up a certain piece of information or a question you may have. For example you've just read the Necronomicon and wish to further understand what exactly is required for the ritual of opening an astral gateway or summoning an ancient and crusty sand demon. Use intention and emotion to "tune" yourself like a radio frequency receiver and sender. Or maybe you wish to further understand a relationship in your life or a part of yourself that you've currently been noticing. Ask your question and feel as if you're tuning your frequency to the direct one you need to receive. Feel as if you've already received the answer or are already in that frequency. Try to be open to this and take whatever comes be it voices, words, imagery, videos or other. You may even be prompted to look up a book, resource, video, topic or other.

*Continued*

As for tips. Learn to realise when it is proper guidance speaking to you or when it is some astral runt trolling you. This comes with intuition and practice. Follow what your emotions or heart feels is correct as this is what your true self feels. This practice can bring answers of all kind be them metaphysical or not. This is the skill of clairvoyance that the oracle uses to understand knowledge beyond their physical grasp. Now that you have an infinite spring of resource and knowledge it's time to use it!! Become your own master by creating and pulling your own philosophies and systems of magic through your own consciousness. Integrate other people's ideas and text via the super consciousness and develop practices and techniques through meditative contemplation over what you need to do and how it should be done. If you feel it works, it works. After all, how do you think sigils, idols, talismons, ritual dances, alchemical items, mantras, shrines, altars and other ritual tools were invented?

I thought I should add some practical examples of what I've obtained and achieved through this. Well, each and every thread of mine you read has come from this work. Infact my entire set of wisdom and practices has. Intuition has guided me. For non metaphysical things - I use it to further my own hobbies. This is a virtual reality like state so I've used it to learn musical theory, compose music, perform ear training and even replicate instruments to practice. That's one of the hobbies it has been used for at least. Some of you might know a skill called shadow boxing which we use in boxing. That is fighting a virtual or imaginary opponent. Well you can do this all in your imagination if you want and take real skills back to reality. Another fun practice was to cook up food dishes to practice my visualization. This is a skill I had mastered as a child, always creating inventive devices or objects out of technology, metal, cloth and whatever else I could find. First imagining it and then bringing it into paper or straight into reality.

Earth and the second hermetic principle - Definition of magic

I feel this is an important part to mention. I'm not going to force you to do anything outside of your means, but what to expect and what you need to know to make good choices for yourself. Chances are some of you are drug addicts, people who eat poorly and don't exercise. Some of you may not have been in nature for months and awaken when the sun goes down. The rest of you may have put the foot down and dropped each and every poor habit only to relapse back again and again. Ultimately we should always seek balance. Though balance is rare and difficult to obtain on the path we walk. Swinging wildly from one pole to the other is all too familiar for some of us. Always seek to keep yourself in the best state you can as it means you will be able to make a better decision and have clearer judgement. Even if it means appeasing your lower nature with drugs like coffee and starch.

Analyse your life. Think of your diet, what kind of physical activities you do, the kind of mental activities you perform, the drugs in your life, your area, sleep and even the people around you. I'm asking you to become aware and conscious of your physical circumstances. This gives a look into the mental and etheric nature of your being since the physical mirrors the non- physical. So above as below. The mind and body are two halves of the same coin. We can take this a step further and correspond your house or room to your own subconscious. Look at your workspace and room. Are they messy? clean? are there year old objects which serve no purpose such as boxes or scraps of paper? relics of the past? All of these give clues as to your current internal state. When you internally decide to do something, or make any decision and choice at all it has already manifested as a possible future. We're constantly attacked with choice throughout the day. Have you ever thought that these choices are what builds up your life? A friend may ask you a question. The answer you give will impress your own subconscious mind so try to be truthful to yourself.

I'm not here to give a lecture on addictions (though I can link resource if people need it) but I find it makes a good practical explanation to learning the second Hermetic principle - Analogy. You'll start to find that (or you may have already experienced) with occult practice your life starts to drastically change. You clean up not only your own body in the way of addictions, diet and other but your external world like your room and house. Just like the altar is an analogy of our subconscious mind, the room or living quarters is usually a mirror of the conscious mind. I heavily recommend cultivation and energy work for those who're addicted. Start to think of anything that is a physical item which changes your state to be a drug. Food, dope, videogames and even water can all be equally a drug. The drugs you "Require" to get by are the ones which balance you so to speak. They act as a an earthing or grounding device for some kind of problem. Something to soak up your current unwanted state of being(fatigue, stress, fear, boredom, pain, loneliness, etc). Think of the addicts you may know. What was their childhood or adolescence like? This is why shadow work or emotional healing is important. It's a method of changing the internal to eventually change the external. With cultivation you build up your internal will and strength which eventually leaks out into your life, healing physical, mental and emotional problems. The best thing I can recommend is a journal. Write down and start to learn your own cycles and correspondences.

*Continued*

Ideally I'm aiming for this writeup to get you guys to start thinking about the second Hermetic law. Go re-read it in the Kybalion and mediate over what corresponds in our universe. 7 notes in a classical mode, 7 main colours, 7 glands, 7 plexus, 7 chakras and the 7 main planets and Gods which represent them in many systems, 7 days of creation. Everything about a person from their room, physical appearance, personality, thoughts and ideas are an expression of their internal. The astral corresponds to our collective worlds unconscious, crafted through emotions. You see where I'm going with this? This is just a little food for thought. Now you can go on and internalize the second law. Understanding that whatever effects the internal effects the external. Thus as magicians we use ritual(external reality) to influence the subconscious mind or astral(internal reality). See that duality. It's the Hermetic law of gender - Yin and yang. Analogy and gender work together well just like all of the hermetic laws. That's really the definition of magic or what it means to be a magician(To think like a magician through the Hermetic laws is also important). And then you can look at the other side of the magician which is cultivation. We cultivate our internal energies in order to have strength, power and will with the external physical world in order to perform out hobbies, work, and other tasks. The more power you have internally the more you gain externally.

*Warning, off topic, kind of* Everything you do requires energy and your current levels of energy given each day is corresponding with your Chi. This is why we seek physical health and balance as the lowest form of internal energy is known as Jing. This jing is formed at the kidneys. You lose it through physical interaction like exercise, digestion, masturbation, physical stress, strain and tension, poor health and illness caused through acidity. As long as you're not in control of the lower three chakras or lower self/nature your jing cannot transmute into chi to fuel your heart and head dan tiens. *Tangent over*

Now that you know how to meditate you should be pondering over all of this after each reading. I'm going to repeat this again. This information is not going to serve you unless you first understand it and second apply it. To understand it you first need to make it your own and understand it in your own way. Your OWN understanding and knowledge of something is more important than anyone else's.

I hope you guys are beginning to see that physical reality IS IMPORTANT! It's the other side of the coin and until we no longer are with our bodies we need to learn about them and the world around us. They're our own vessel for interacting with this playground. So I suggest everyone to find hobbies which appease and exercise each part of them. I'm talking about stuff that gets you creating. Be it physical creation like woodwork or more mental and less dense hobbies like art. Depending on your current level and atonements will depend on what kind of hobbies you gravitate towards. Personally I'm fairly martian and venusian in nature which is why I enjoy physical exercise like boxing or martial arts and more emotional arts like music.

Why am I speaking about hobbies in an esoteric thread you may ask? Well here's another second hermetic principle concept. What you create is directly a product of your own internal self and internal creative energy. What does this mean? It means that you can learn about yourself from what you enjoy and what you create. Thus developing the solar personality.

So you want to learn about who YOU are. What your heart dan tien - the song of the soul is about. Express yourself externally.

To summarize. Start thinking of everything as a mirror, what you think of other people, your body, hobbies, work, room, etc. Our physical experience is one which allows us to reach the ultimate goal - knowledge of self. And for this we need to start using the law of analogy.

I know I'm saying a whole lot of stuff. But ultimately it comes down to YOU, you yourself the one who's reading this to actually try new things. To try new systems like yoga, tai-chi, marital art, meditation, qi-gong, magic, or whatever system you use to tap into your own Godhood. Either follow - tap into- align to another pre-made frequency or program that's already out there to get your own experiences or/and create your own systems. Maybe you you're a bath tub wizard who uses this as your medium to tap into higher consciousness or creative thought through the oils, salts and other analogies. Great, cultivate it and then share it to all of us.

Whatever you do in life. Whatever makes you happy. Use it to cultivate your own self - consciousness or current state - wavelength- frequency- vibration and then share it with the rest of us. That's what it is to be a creator. You're a kid in a sandbox. How're you going to spend your time playing? Will you follow the game of pretend that another emotionally, mentally and physically wounded child pushes on you or are you going to create your own game?

We do ourselves a lot of harm by thinking this is all a lot more complex than it really is. All I can say is to try figuring reality out yourself. Figure out everything you can in your own way.

Ask yourself the questions. How do you think reality works?

Then go read some occult information to try understand what they're saying.

Then go put it into practice.

After that you have experience to run of. Go do the work. Whatever it is that connects you to your childlike state again.

Principles of electricity/other

Balance leads to stability. Sometimes we want to push too fast and end up losing our grounding and fall further down than we ever were. Too much stability leads to stagnation so we do not wish to stay in comfort forever. Know when to attack and know when to defend. Also know when to retreat as battles can be lost but you can never lose the war. Take all losses as a learning experience as the bad is there to show the good.

All things may express in a male or female gender. This is what we know as yin or yang. Either you give energy or take in energy and create new. Ponder over the earth and try to find what is male and female about it. The soil is female as it allows seeds which are male to be planted and create a new plant. Seeds are an analogy of a plant. They contain all the information of a fully grown tree but come in miniature form. Just like the green vibration or light given off by the young plant colour is simple an analogy of prime frequency. Though just like a thermometer hot and cold are simply different manifestations of the same frequency.

The all is all and all is the all. This all is simply an analogical expression of frequency or electricity, light, sound. Your body being an expression of this all(nature) houses 7 prime plexus, 7 glands and 7 chakras. These correspond to 7 major frequencies or state of being, 7 planets and 7 Gods or archetypes. Colour or sound are simply gateways to tap into this prime frequency. This is why standing in a red or orange room puts you in a lower, primal state of the frequency attributed to the corresponding chakras.

Know that before creation happens it must first be thought up in the mind of either "God" or the analogy which we call (Womb)Man(man connects to the mind of God or the all). From the computer you're interfacing with right now to the chair you're sitting on which were thought up first. To understand the mind of God is to understand yourself. Since we live in the mind of God there is only knowledge of self- God- Electricity. Think of reality like a game and look into ways that you can "break" or "solve" this game. Look outside, what do you see? Stars, clouds, trees, the moon, the sun, water, and other such phenomena. Observation of the world brings knowledge of this all - self - electricity or prime frequency.

Now we go into cycles the body and planet experiences. The astrological world is perfect to observe to understand cycles. Look at the seasons and how it changes the sun in our sky, how this effects the body and mind. Your body is around 90% water and the moon controls the water tide. Each moon cycle you can observe and study changes which happen in your own biology. We use the word Lunar-tic to describe those who're effected by "moon sickness". The start of a new moon is the sign of a start for us. As the ending or closing of a full moon is also.

*Continued*

Whatever you're connecting or "doing" is what you're currently channelling or tuning into. Your entire body is a liquid radio crystal and many parts like the pineal have their own set of crystals. Think of your state electrically. Use the spinal cord with the 7 chakras or plexus as a gauge to understand which "level" or frequency you're sitting at. Frequency simply means vibratory rate. Observe the frequency of people around you and then apply your knowledge to study further. Quick or slow. Ethereal or dense. The slower you vibrate, the lower your energetic level and state = the denser you are. Your body is made up of water, mineral and carbon all electrically charged. Your blood is pure electrical wine which pulses through a system of pumps through internal pressure which we cultivate in energy work or qi-gong. The higher the pressure the more hormones your glands secrete. Gland secretion is the physical counterpart to chakras activating or "opening". This body can be blocked by mucus and hindered by poor pumping (breathing) or dehydrated parts.

Cause and effect is a vital law to understand and well understood through the body. Observe your own body and notice what you're doing to cause specific health problems or effects. All problems have a relation, only that they may be subtle to notice. As you increase your vibratory rate through meditative activities, diet and energy work (among others) you will start to notice the subtle things in life. We exist on all levels in reality as all experiences happen on all as well. Only that you begin to notice the more that has always existed in your life as you clean up. Dejavu becomes a common occurrence the more you study, learn, grown and develop. As you will find you already know all of this. You're simply remembering it again. You'll the perfect state which psychadelics, tantra, glowing health, kundalini or other intense spiritual experiences bring on is the "childlike state". The exact state of consciousness that children are in. We never grew up but simply grew down and regressed.

Magic is simply the art of manipulating the subconscious mind and energy work is the art of manipulating the subtle parts of your vessel to increase pressure for health. Health of body is health of mind. Each part of the body exists on multiple levels and improving it will have effects on those corresponding. Train the core and your entire life will change as the foundation - lower dan tien will strengthen. Seek health, seek strength, seek wisdom and knowledge. Become compassionate and loving to first yourself then express it to the world. Learn and understand who you are. Separate the signals of the body from your heart and higher guidance. Reconnect with your childhood self and the hobbies you used to do or always want to do. To achieve this perfect state of a child like creator is the indigo consciousness or wu-ji state of ultimate enlightenment. A fully developed mind, spirit and body with complete knowledge, experience and wisdom of his/her own vessel and the world around you. Which are two in the same. Polar duality.

Thought I'd write in a little bit more philosophical than practical or experiential way tonight.

That should give you guys a bit to meditate over/ unlock a few doors and plant seeds.

There's quite a bit there but really it all comes down to knowing yourself. To know the 7 Hermetic principles is to know the reality you live in and how it works. That is knowledge of yourself. Or of God which you are an analogy of.

Observe reality, create your own science and art. Ultimately your own knowledge is far more practical than that taught to you in school or in a book. Take what works, apply it and better yourself and your life.

My heart goes out to all of those struggling or in bad cycles right now. Keep riding the wave and hold on. It may even take a week or longer to recover but you'll eventually get above water.

One other little idea I wanted to try explain is that every time you're reading my writing, or viewing anything of mine you are temporarily immersing yourself in my own reality - world or frequency. Like tuning in to a tv "channel". You can then understand that items like psychedelics are simply "alien" stations or channels which you can tune yourself into. As they say they're illegal because they break down the current western or worldwide "channel" that everyone is currently on. The people we call mundane or regular folk are all being manipulated and buying into a stream of consciousness developed by damaged individuals(the leaders) who've figured out how to impose their own world onto the rest of it. Fight fire with fire. Or be the water which allows all light to pass through it.

Most of the world is playing a big game of "I want you to believe in my world". Look at any groups. They have their own egregore or collective station Which you can choose to "tune" into. To believe their perception and see reality from their perspective.

Again. Electricity guys. Think about it all electrically. Look at the words used for computers and tvs. Tune, subscribe, channel, frequency.

The goal here is to create your own self actualized world or channel. We're simply using the body and mind to express our own "self" or our hearts magnetic field which is our channel. Make your own clothes, own art, own cars, own house, own food own communities. Do whatever it is you need to do to create your own world and learn about yourself. At the end of the day we're all kids playing in a sandpit called earth. And it just so happens that some of the kids became a little bit grumpy and want to control everything.

Visualization side notes

"How do I visualize?" You may be wondering. I'm here to tell you that visualization works both third person and first person. Visualizing a third person version of yourself is your astral body which will manifest into the physical blueprint(With energy and repetition). And visualizing over your own body in first person is doing the same except you're inhabiting the astral body(Like a God form) at the same time thus bringing about a more instant controlled effect. This is better if you need to quickly put up an energy shield or heal a painful area on the go.

For those who're weak in visual imagination you may also use tactile or auditory imagination(I even did my energy work my imagining my entire body was a taste sensor once lol). Put your intention into creating a violet bubble shield(One example) around you and "feel it" or even "hear it", then pour energy into this through vibration(Feeling as if these sensations are growing stronger and it is coming alive. Use emotion). When you combine intention and energy it will lead to results. Though I strongly advice training the "visual" part of imagination as it is the "highest" or strongest sense. Combine all of these together for greater effect and power.

Have fun and remember to practice your visualization!

When you name god you create other gods.

Walk your own path. Create your entire own systems. It is the best way to connect with yourself. Using someone elses system is to use part of them.

Use sacred spaces to represent your own internal world.

After recieving information allow yourself to meditate over it and let the super conscious give you the true information and wisdom.

You need to generate your own personal philosophy by working with your inner self.

Invoking a spirit is to focus within the energy and intention to summon and call it.

Figure out the deities within you and invoke them to do work.

Who and what you are is a reflection of something that is.

All you need to do is reflecting. You have nothing to learn. You should be reflecting.

Ego is the part that wants to exist. The humanity archetype.

Lower dan tien =health.

Middle= expand love, compassion.

Third eye = memory, intellect.

Back of third eye = photo memeory, past life components.

Spinal nerve caduceus curve outside the spine.

Your mindset is what sets up results. Expect it to happen and it will.

Soul travel is different to astral travel.

The spirit has multiple layers.

Remember how you feel about dream symbols.

The spirit is trying to talk to you through day dreams.

Allow your spirit to guide your life and not your humanity.

tahuti = thought, balance of the left and right brain.

occult = occultari = hidden

to control chaos energy you need to master the bottom three chakras

1. Reptilian brain - Brain stem - Survival, no emotions - Alcohol . People who respond with fight or flight.

2. Inscect - Medula - Teamwork for survival - Heroin. People who need to congregate in gang or groups like church.

3. Intelect - Cerebellum - Fedoras - cocaine. The intellect.

4. Emotions - Marajuana.

5. Pure knowingness - Intuition

6. Temporal lobes - extra sensory abilities

7. Frontal lobes - use the electromagnetic structures.

Go into the meditation with an intention of what you want to do.

Learn to access your imagination again to get and do what you want.

We are in a prison where archons are absorbing our energy through the emotions we give and the activities we have. They are only here to distract us

Set stealing isis is the ego stealing the reward without earning it.

Leaving into the sunset is leaving earth.

Gnosis the secrets of solomons temple.

The 12 zodiac and 7 planets rule over us but we need to break free from them.

Before you have order you must have chaos.

Chaos is undefinined and unlimited energy.

It is the basest rawest for of natural energy and power before you start to define and sculpt it.

The first step in spirituality is to address the traumas you've experienced.

Counter clockwise drawing in. Clockwise drawing in. When you do this staircase exercise you start to remove blockages that your higher self wants you to deal with. Write it down after and then change it,

Focus more on the visualization of the past to recreate it. Place yourself in the moment.

You can petition and ask the universe if you have an intent.

First law of the universe is self preservation.

To get the brain to feel you need to focus on something and absorb the energy from it with your heart. The heart will shoot the energy up to the brain once it absorbs it.

7 chakras, 12 zodiac and 4 elements create a box which is reality.

The sun god rescues you from humanity.

Nut = sky god = higher nature, heaven, higher self, top three chakras

Ged = EArth god = lower nature, earth, lower self, lower three chakras

Shu = heart, air, void.

Three chakras represented by gods.

These two are combined with kundalini.

amenra is the hidden sun inside.

All rituals are internal.

They should stimulate internal workings.

mayat, feather, quill, heart, androgyne.

Shiva = pineal,

Shakti= lower kundalini

Shakti hitting shiva means kundalini awake.

pituitari = pvati.

pvati Marries kali.

Kali = unlimited power.

coxyc is where the kundalini energy is bound up. This is refered to as egypt

To be immortal you must raise kundalini. Sacrificng that is giving it up.

There are three nerves which the kundalini uses to activate.

The more you get into occultism the stronger the rings around your pineal grow.

Kundalini is feminine in nature. Sleeping and awaiting the touch of male energy

Awakened kundalini is masculine.

By naming Gods you create other Gods that exist outside of ourselves.

If you are following something outside of yourself then you are part of the experiment.

The subconscious and super conscious correlate to the trance states. The underworld is beyond the deta state.

All ritual is just putting energy into a certain channel

Negative thoughtforms are mental programs.

Being a god is to self create the channel you're viewing.

It's to become the creator of what experience you're allowed to see.

So we've all been put under a secret program to believe one persons ideas over another.

This has esciladed into the ultimate fight in ourselves between ourselves.

You are the conscious switch to change the channel of what consciousness you view.

The more energy you put into something the more likely it is to create and become a reality.

You just need to keep fueling that one stream of consciousness you're on.

Break down all walls. Unlimited chaos potential.

So you decide every second if you're going to change for the better or worse.

We've built these little boxes around ourselves. To shelter us from the real world.

Art is just the simplification of the complex. To make difficult easy in form.

Intellectual seperatness from the natural order is frightening to humans.

People are afraid to stand alone, to be seperate from the mass - human egregore.

To belong is the natural order.

To be a true master is to be alone.

The act of standing alone is fearful to most.

Huamns need someone to help, guide, protect and sustain them.

If you're never alone you cannot ever develop the aspect of self.

Reprogram and replace your old knowledge and programming. Empty your cup to recieve a new filling of the truth.

to opose control and will is to take up stagnation.

fear expresses outwards as hate.

People externalize a boogyman to hate that represents the inner fears and inner failures of themself.

Darkness and black is refering to an infinite nature that encompases all.

Your talent is God - creative part of you is your inner God.

One part of you helps you maintain yourself on earth, usually socialy. The other is the divine part which

Your body thinks thinking in the past and future is real. So let go of all fantasizing and reliving. Only live in the now. Forget about time. Reality is simply the unmanifested manifesting over and over in a cycle. Learn about the angles of light.

Heart tunes you to certain dimensions. Intestines store up energy and digest it. It is the first brain.

Whatever you put in your intestines is what processes and goes up to your heart. This is your frequency. Think of how much higher sound and light vibrates to food. The pineal is directed to the heart. Bio feedback device. Intestines tells the heart what kind of enviroment you're in to adjust and gravitate towards that vibration.

The higher dimension you're in the more energy you have available as well as the potency.

Different angles of light (hours) equate to different influences by the planets, elements and zodiac.

It's possible that we are simply creating non physical - energetic "tools" to satisfy certain ideas. Like a man creates a guitar to play music. A nei-gong practicioner creates a lower dan tien to cultivate energy.

I find we use people as entertainment far too often.

Auditory is of the body and visual is of the soul.

- Flowers can teach us of gender and sex.

Meditation is to still the mind and tap into the energetic nature of reality. To tap into the unlimited resource of energy and resource.

Learn to think in analogy and all of this becomes apparent.

You can also separate the people around you into levels, states or frequencies. Look at them as if they were from the lower, higher or mediator self. See them as if they are yin or yang, black and white, opposing or helping.

All people around you are simply an expression of something already within. They allow you to feel the emotions you wish to express that are within you. You don't feel anothers love when they hug you. You simply allow yourself to feel your own love. You're not angry at another person. You're simply angry at yourself.

This goes for physical objects and our computer desktop as well. We use our pc desks as modern day alters. Placing objects of the personality or internal state to remind ourselves of what a past version of ourselves wished to do.

The emotions we feel (love for example) from something like another person or a piece of entertainment is simply just the allowance of yourself letting you feel your own internal emotion.

Focus your energies on yourself always. Thoughtform and develop your own art and interests or focus the energy on retaining a meditative state with the breathe - lower naval.

Your bad moods are caused from addiction and poisoning.

Whatever you think about during the day is being created at a less dense level.

Reality will always show you the oposition within yourself with other people.

Become every aspect of a dream. "Your entire reality is nothing more than a 360 degree mirror which is reflecting aspects of yourself". Keep developing the nervous system.

The more energy you have the quicker you can make things manifest. The cleaner you are the higher vibration - more potential chaos energy. The more chaos energy the more that can happen. Pure chaotic potential energy is the raw fundamental principle that all else arises from. We craft it into whatever we please. To learn something quickly is to experiment completely with everything that you can. To consciously tinker, test and explore. As well as pondering over it.

The medication of the common man are lies that he tells himself.

What more can I tell you. You already know what you need.

Whenever someone expresses a large amount of negative emotions towards you it creates a trauma. This is a negative thoughtform impressed in your aura which stops you and tries to control your thoughts to stop it happening again. Either you choose to channel that negative energy or transmute it. Or you reflect it back. Do the 6 healing sounds and a grounding to get rid of negative energy.

Remember that you are the God. You pick to create your own reality with each action.

Think of nature or the external world as your own body. Should it be harvested or destroyed for personal gain? in moderation. Like one would take a drug.

Think of systems of ascension like language. Every culture has their own and they're completely different. Ultimately they all do the same thing though using different roads.

In an astral form push energy towards whatever you want the body to do. To fuel the will. Whatever I consciously want to happen with my vehicle or astrally I simply need to will it.

Everything that vibrates is a thoughtform. It has polarity.

Elements are different because of rate of vibration. They are all the same.

We're in human form/ world to learn our bodies and world.

12 zodiac 30 degrees of a circle/cycle. 12 parts of the body. 12 archetypes.

People seek others to make themselves whole like a drug. To externalize their incompleteness and allow the other to reinforce their own faults and loss/lack of knowledge. I feel these people give up on finding themselves so instead they externalize the "finding" component and look for an opposite which makes them feel complete. Thus the male searching for female.

You don't need to make something complex for it to be beautiful.

You need to be satisfied by the act of just being and doing. If you cannot then you will look for exterior sensory pleasures to try fulfil yourself with.

Every day you wake up and write another chapter in the book of life. What are you gonna make of it?

Think of the feedback loop idea. What you give out comes back. What you do as a habit happens again and again , so on.

You're manipulating all the energies around you when you become whole and connect with the self.

To get something you gotta give something

You perpetuate what you give to yourself. Love yourself to find love.

Trust your body. You get signals from your intuition through the body. Like hand taps.

Air is a less dense form of energy. Food is a very dense level of energy. Fruit is less dense because it is water.

We can transmute energy with the body.

God is expressed through everything - universe.

Think about the density of energy.

- Think of everything in energy. How much did it cost you to process what you've eaten.

We're giving energy to what is not challenging us. We need to move on to what we actually want to do.

We're all expressions of what we should be doing. Don't do things you need to try at. Do things you need to do.

Your lessons come in much harsher when you don't learn them.

- Vibrations can go both ways. Think of something you do or don't want to do and change the dial on it.

Essentially you are electric. Your spinal cord and brain is at the centre of you. You can think of this as an electric pole where the bottom is negative and top is positive. Along with electric pole are 7 plexus which connect to 7 glands. Since we are electric and our universe is electric (because of analogy) we are an expression of electricity or light. The 7 colours of the rainbow. Our entire blood is conductive, our muscles, organs, glands and other cables are covered in electroconductive fascia.

: Through various practices or items like drugs you can activate the highest levels of this pole. Or what you could say as changing your frequency or vibration to the highest - indigo. Your pineal or head.

: To enter the childlike state one must have a perfect orbit. Meaning their bodies electrical system is a closed circuited, no blockages and it is well developed. This takes time and practice. I've found I grow ever closer to the childlike state of consciousness with my own practices.

Essentially the drugs hit you straight up there. Kind of like a temporary boost to show you what you've lost.

Know what I'm saying?

If you can get all of that you can start to understand the electric universe. Which you could understand through the Hermetic principles of 7 laws of Tahuti - Thoth - Mercury or logic, the messanger of gods.

These are the principles of electricity. As we live in a gendered universe. Everything i expresses in a polarity of male or female, but like a thermometer hot a cold are the same thing but different sides.

Now here's the real kicker to me.

I unconsciously listen or create art most of the time. While aware and conscious yesterday I noticed that everything I consume is a reflection of my internal state. As well as what I create. You can understand this through the electric model. Like attracts like and two frequencies overlap.

Think of it this way. Your current emotion or state - vibes is your level or frequency. It's like how being in nature surrounded by green takes you to the heart which is represented as green.

Anyway that's a combination of lecture and journal notes along with some conversations. It should do well to tape up some loose ends or get your minds thinking.

Hey fellas, bumping this post since I am a noob to the practice of magic. I have always kinda done research and had an interest but I am also a lazy piece of shit so I never really tried anything.

Recenly in my study I was reading about Chaos magic and how one should not start with it. One of the things that poped up as a good system for beginners was "smth". I had never heard of this system before so I was wondering if anyone here had an idea what it means or can offer some sort of explanation.

>>797

Chaos magic is fairly good to start with since it's 100% results and not much cultivation or anything else. Just have a bit of fun with lesser magic. The entire point of starting in this field is to break your old understand of what reality is and push to to what it can become.

>>952

So in other words, it builds you up on a foundation weaker than a pool of liquified shit. No wonder so many chaos magicians go bat-shit crazy and get committed or imprisoned, after losing the ability to function.

>>7690

Where do you think all the warlocks come from? Chaos magic is an introduction to insanity and the dark side of reality. If you've got the right help when you first start with it, its not so bad, but its not a path one should stay on.

Masturbating your own ego by only relying on your own imagination leads to the path of self-deification/destruction.

>>8025

Yeah this is why you should read Franz Bardon's companion with his works as a lot of people fuck it up and become "it was real in my mind goy!" idiots.
