Hello and welcome! I am not sure about the Kanji dont worry about not knowing much no one here knows much anyway what is there to know? have fun!

It doesnt benefit anything - that I know of / other than I need to find what is real and burn the rest

I literally meant everyone is a fraud - myself included. isn't that why we are here? to find "no-self"? whatever that is/isnt or both or both not etc because nothing really exists right? not even this? < this text you are reading... doesnt exist that is why you are reading it. simply stuff really - you don't exist // your pretending to exist - you are a fraud

I am, therefore. I am the determining and the creative principle

coool kinda exciting really - the center of the universe is everywhere?

true

everybody is a fraud

You know these things for 100%? or are you just mimicking things you have read? I once believed in karma because I wanted all those who created suffering to suffer equally does your belief in karma come from hate? as mine did? I will not wait on the universe to bring balance - I will bring balance here and now in this present in the time on this earth

Karma is another delusion creating an apathetic self destructive anti compassionate world all that matters is this, right here, right now - I don't care for imaginary past deeds I see evil "people" excelling in this world from the suffering of others over life times Ive seen evil family lineages do the same and continue to prosper generation after generation Karma is a lie I hear in India generally when people are suffering hurting etc// others just walk by... its their karma to suffer... how sick and twisted... family friends witnessed a man of the "lower caste" being run over... no one went to help... western tourists went to his assistance... it was his karma to suffer... what insanity

In the last 100 years alone 250 million + people have been murdered by their governments conflicts... a large amount of the population goes through tremendous suffering - not just "a little to keep them on their toes" In my view this is deception - adding to the apathy, adding to self annihilation of humanity The Buddhist say - Oh we already live in paradise? everyone just buzz out on bliss while your fellow man burns The Christians say - Oh their is so much evil in the world today, but don't worry just pray - Jesus is going to save us! while their fellow man burns both are delusional Gandhi was a spiritual teacher and practitioner and was politically engaged fighting for the rights of his people? Or how about Krishna? Avatar destroying all the demons? Christ was also very politically/religiously involved attempting to loosen the chains holding man down

@ Lin Ai Wei interesting story I wonder what the Buddha would say today? 2500 years later

@ Lin Ai Wei you raised some interesting points - i'd like to share a few of my own views I have seen great love/compassion emotion + intelligence of the animal kingdom - a lot of animals I would regard as more spiritually/emotionally evolved than humans I have had the great fortune to grow up with animals and to interact / understand them better + believe them to be great teachers and healers I would also say the survival of the fittest is true - this in my view would embody wisdom, intellect, love and strength all... these this are survival animals compete with each other to allow the greatest among them to reproduce which mean that the species as a whole remains strong + smart survival of the least fit surely cant be true? the weak and stupid to continue the species? in my view one of humanities problems is that survival of the fittest doesn't play a big enough part... that doesn't mean we destroy each other to find out who is the best/ fittest... but as a whole striving together for knowledge/ wisdom mental + emotional balance and physical fitness/ strength / good health today i see laziness on all these ^^^^ humanity has become pathetic, such a shame considering the possibilities as a human... gone to waste + humanity for the most part have given themselves away, given up their sovereignty / freedom + independence to governments/ corporations + religious organizations < now they are completely manipulated... through mass media / tv/music/radio/books +magazines ?newspapers the collective consciousness is used against itself... humanity has become a slave race / with the wealth (mind,body and spirit) of the people going to a small few at the top of the pyramid The Earth this day could be a living paradise - we had the technology over 100 years ago... though the slave masters keep it from us... because we have become weak, stupid and allowed this /// I prefer freedom of mind body and soul in harmony with the Great Tao

no formal training/ teaching but I would agree spontaneous dancing is healing... I guess one would practice "Chaos Magick" I would assume a lot of these formal methods/ techniques etc were once all spontaneous/ intuitive, worked and then became a system

+theurgy+ Thank you for the advice greatly appreciated... I strongly agree with the last paragraph too... I am trying to move my attention away from it and put a great deal more focus on the inner being peace to you

@ +theurgy+ In terms of Hermetics I have read The Emerald Tablets + Franz Bardons IIH and another work by one of his contemporaries Now in the process of reading R.A Schwaller de Lubicz + Isha and their works regarding the Egyptians mysteries and creating the Divine Man? I am finding these much better for myself... Maybe with your experience you could guide me to works that you believe to have value? ps: Was it not the religions of Abraham that laid waste to the ancient knowledge? that preached peace and love at the end of sword? that condemned us all to hell for being filthy sinners? the list is endless... I did say religions... not mystical traditions... which in those religions were deemed heretical / burned at the stake, hanged, heads chopped off etc... not dangerous ? you may find the original Kabbalah has nothing to do with Judaism? but was subverted? the two being linked for the most part now?

haha - I read the first chapter, I have read many books occult, spiritual/ religious to fantasy - I still have it somewhere... maybe I should take a passage from it? Perhaps that was the wrong book... I should rephrase, I did not find it suitable for myself / my perception of it... do you really know what you are invoking? I know what is under my kitchen sink and how to use it... A lot of the occult stuff is stabbing in the dark hoping for the best... from my limited understanding. Maybe I have looked at things beyond my scope... its difficult to find a beginner 101 occult magic for the general public. A more recent book I read on the occult was how to tame demons and gain material wealth/ fame etc... waste of time, i believe. I also closed that book after the first chapter... I am only young, still trying to find my feet / path etc just dabbling at the moment - don't be too hard on me I am so disillusioned with all the Truth BS out there... everyman has a different theory... I think for myself personally it would be best to simply meditate and find my own path. Actually that was my second attempt the first was some time ago but there was a teaching online video... that was presented much better...in terms of the Kabbalah hmmm - as said in a previous post of believe there is a conspiracy to corrupt/ hide / destroy true knowledge and gnosis of the divine... this includes putting out "disinformation" to set people astray.. some truths, some lies. When I have looked deeper into some paths and tradition Ive found things of a horrific/ and satanic nature / posing as truth and freedom / highly deceptive / grand illusions and traps to bind your soul. I am sorry for my strong words and I do see my initial statement as shallow... I should have been more precise. My intuition/ wisdom said this wasn't the book for me? could you please elaborate on your knowledge of the White Wolves?

pleasure and pain apparently originate from the same area of the brain... i think there is a key in there somewhere

Here is a link to that book if you like - I'd place it under the category of interesting speculation/ mystery novel http://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&ved=0CDkQFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ukrytesprawy.org%2Finne%2FWilliam_Bramley_-_The_Gods_of_Eden.pdf&ei=iF6jT865EumpiAf9-aiKAw&usg=AFQjCNHWHhBbwD8HEcUMovRXbpBWCqNiVg&sig2=J1_wlHcMhxVUCE6z8u2OCw

again just rough memory I think a number of gods were involved in causing the great flood... trying to destroy Man I think Enlil? was the leader of this group Enki his brother though? another god... tried to help humanity I'll get some better information on it when I have a chance I believe there is a conspiracy against enlightenment / divine knowledge I believe uncovering our ancient past is an important part of "Know Thyself" - some really wacky things happened a long time ago

I attempted the Kabbalah briefly ahah - first chapter of a beginners guide... threw it away bad energy i think - all the religions of Abraham are a twisted mess... some bits of wisdom here and there but as a whole dangerous perhaps... interesting study though my little knowledge of Lilith: She was Adams first bride but she was too powerful for Adam... a strong independent woman she left Adam and became the bride of Satan... Satan for equality? Adam was upset, "god" created Adam a new wife that was more subservient = Eve lol

interesting read - thank you have you by any chance read 'The Gods of Eden" it kind of takes the alien approach though things like: Moses went atop the mountain and a fiery spinning wheel landed and the gods descended from it? haha UFO anyone?

I have meditated on the ocean at night sitting on the beach... felt wonderful for a number of days...quite humbling, very peaceful - extreme content afterwards couldn't help but smile at nothing one of my better experiences another place I was staying for mediation (Tibetan Buddhist) etc had bad "juju" (in the volunteer area down the mountain) a number of people picked up on it... quite strong. I was sleeping woke with some really strange dreams, bad feelings couldn't sleep so got up to read... not so long after my room mate came out with a similar feeling - both of us tried to keep the room in a positive state... each with our own practice... mine being quite poor the night after a girl in another room was basically attacked by something - it spoke to hear and she was paralyzed with fear... - something to note: a purification puja? had taken place the night or the night before... with "ordinary" people releasing their negative... I don't know what this may have had an influence... i would say it wasnt performed by the most adept people. but i don't think this is it entirely I was glad to leave that place. I feel most comfortable in my room I think - my energy

The strange part is kind of missed because the text is long and Ive only given a small portion - but basically a dark group / jealous, hateful beings wanted to keep Man in slavery and ignorance of his divinity + ultimate freedom so placed at the Tree of Knowledge an elaborate illusion? to scare him away from attaining THAT. perhaps what Owledge may be describing this fear barrier thing? maybe I am taking things too literally?
