Bullshit Siddhis

Nsala malongo,

So.....powers. They exist. You work your alchemy, and they start popping up.

It isn't what you expect.

It's not like the comics.

Subtle things happen. You get a little something here, a big something there. Some of them appear useless at first.

Some years ago, after work in the upper cinnabar field, I gained the dubiously awesome ability to see a sort of spirit double floating around people. At first I was BEYOND stoked, and thought I was well on my way toward ascension from my normal state into a vicious and powerful spiritual overlord, as was foretold. By me. When I was like, fourteen.

Then, after the wonder wore off, I realized that this was absolutely useless. The double gave me no information about the person, no power to manipulate myself or the other. It was just there.
So. Countless hours of heat and concentration, and the end result was this?

Of course it *was* useful in the long-run, as a mark of my developing spiritual sight. And continuing to work with it enabled a sort of Flowering. 

It's worth noting that this growth isn't a goal, but a signpost along the road. Don't get too caught up in them.

    I see the same thing. My conclusion is that consciousness is multitasking through several bodies in a group with the same aims. I tested the theory out when I was surprised to find a famous politician hovering between the head & shoulder of another man who bore some resemblance. I happened to have a connection to one of the politician's staff & I sent a message intended for this literal spook & the result was immediate.

    It's not useless. Start with why. What is the motive of the watcher. Figure it out. I believe we are there to intercede & provide a short cut. Or be given something. Why else would we see it?

    It was 2007 & the politician was the prime minister Blair. The place was the King James room of the Holiday Inn at Newbury Park London. I was working as part of the G1K with Neale Donald Walsch. I had this sight for as long as I can remember. But that was the first time I started intervening because I saw a course of action.

Golden Dawn--WTF

Ave, I've been trying my level best to not talk about this latest eruption of foolishness, but good folks are being dragged through the mud (on both sides), and I've grown weary. This whole thing is a steaming pile of bullshit. No one is trying to "destroy" the Golden Dawn, that's just silliness. No one is trying to become the only "legitimate" Golden Dawn order either. I'm sickened by this display. Argue in a scholarly fashion! When did this sniping nonsense become the norm? A debate between honorable and wise gents (both of whom I consider Brothers in the Work) like Fraters AM and SR about the Sabbatian Qabbalah would be wonderful, if we could cut all the bullshit out. Quality conversations, ya'll.  Skip the vitriol, the name calling and the idiotic marketing methods. Yes, it is idiocy. This "McGolden Dawn" nonsense is stupid.Ya'll. GROW THE FUCK UP. For the record, The A+O's transmissions are valid, they are real. T...

Working brujeria for others is often thankless and time consuming.

Sala Malongo, Man, y'all. I find that I now spend the vaaaaast majority of my sorcerous/meditative time doing work for others. Which is awesome in many ways, as I've gotten very skilled at what I do. I've got no time for the experimentation, though. No time just fooling about. Sometimes I'm tempted to just say fuck it, and return to just doing things for myself....but I'm a priest, a Tata Nkisi. So I have duties beyond entertainment, and beyond my own development. Gotta balance this stage in the life as well. It's interesting, at the very least. I would have been overjoyed when I was a young aspiring wizard in my 20's to have this kind of problem, haha. Now I look back wistfully at the days when I could meditate for 4 hours straight--or at all-without scheduling a meeting with myself on Google Calendar. Many of the folks who are clients become good friends, some become students, others end up becoming sorcerer/priests themselves. And they are a bless...
