When I tell people they can do they exact same things without taking any form of drugs and more they look at me like I'm the crazy one. That's partly what i meant when I say they only take you to a certain level they're great once or twice as an intro but you don't need them. They won't help you to see or touch “the lines of the world”.
They're not hallucinations either, I get what you mean though. Another thing is that it's too uncontrolled it's easier to learn to get there naturally fully controlled.
In its purest essence Kabbalah is about freeing the divine sparks trapped in the Sitra Achra during creation. This is where redemption through sin comes in, because it is believed that through traveling through darkness or the unseen that man will be able to release the divine sparks trapped here. It's not a unique concept every myth has a practice of descending to the underworld because that is where divinity lies in darkness.
No. If it's esoteric teaching then you don't worship anyone. Esoteric teachings means to look inwardly not to an outside source. The sun itself just the birth of the “son” at dawn after it travels through darkness. See the journey or the soul or Ra through the underworld when he rises again he takes the form of the God of becoming.
There is no worship of any being. Initiated Kabbalist don't worship anyone the main goal being the descent into darkness or Sitra Achra in order to free the half divine spark that is here. Jehova the demiurge just seen as an inferior god in one aspect by Kabbalist but in another aspect is also important for divinity.
Definitely, I can say as a statistician that would be an excellent way to collect Data and note the responses. Even the Vax vs Unvaxxed is just one big data collection experiment. The people on top are masters of the mind, no matter what happens its just 1s and 0s in a dataset to them.
Yup I'm well aware ?
But that's how it is, if you want to see real magick just observe children a child could run circles around these Zen masters. Their mind isn't rigid which is what is needed to see magick. Once you see if you'll realize you've been getting robbed since childhood.
100% hidden in plain sight. I partly understand why they do it, but I think they're dropping the ball. You'd learn far more from Eastern traditions than masonry at this point. Of course even in the eastern traditions you'll get beat over the head by masters telling you to ignore all mythical experiences. Both west and east shun real magick people should ask themselves why that is.
Modern masonry is unfortunately just a boys club now, no longer teaching the mysteries. Those at the higher levels are aware of this, but 99% aren't going to be practicing or having any understanding if magick anymore.
I only provide 1 system, if someone really wants to know they'll eventually find out if they search hard enough. No point in mentioning the other systems either since they're all similar. There is the problem of using many systems and never making any progress because while it all feels like new info it's essentially the same thing and practice tends to suffer from it. Finally there is intent, the thing that allows us to affect this reality.
One thing you'll always notice is that these Masters always tell you to ignore siddhis or experiences during meditation. It's a dead end path to follow them, those guys make enlightment an unreachable goal. Complete systems such as Dzogchen won't do that, there are others but I won't mention them here. Once you dive into your experiences you'll find there are only a handful of places that describe what you experiences if you scour the net hard enough.
Most legit systems will be similar in a way. So I follow a system that consists of having a truly silent mind as the main step, a day practice and a night practice. Any legit system you follow that isn't stringing you along will have a similar format. So Kasina or Bon Dzogchen are excellent places to start as they are complete systems that won't limit you and won't dangle enlightenment infront of you.
I'll add the reason hypnagogia is such a special state is its liminality. You can draw “power” from anything where two opposites cross. Hences the major significance of equinoxes, sun rise/set etc.. Hypnagogia is our way to achieve it on the micro scale.
Context wise: The Black Virgin represents the unseen.
