helpfuldemon Posted February 18, 2021 After having battled hallucinations on and off for the last 20 years, Ive come to recognize that belief is prone to delusion. Id say a lot of it comes from hormones, and fantasy ideas about what could be true. I picked up some Golden Dawn material and man, its like asking for a mental illness, visualizing and communicating with spirits. Im surprised more occultists dont go insane.

Nungali Posted February 18, 2021 Belief is one of the 'tools' in the human psyche's ' tool kit ' , it is best USED by the psyche and not - the psyche used by its beliefs . Eg, I have beliefs about the after life but if you ask me what I think actually happens to one after death , I will say 'I dont know .... who can be sure ? ' But if you want a nice belief about that , I could share one with you . The thing is, that GD material is best viewed as VERY advanced . I also dont recommend re wiring your house with 240v ac without undergoing electrician training . Also it can be viewed as a manual of what to do in case you 'get into trouble' Two schools of thought on this ; 1. leave it alone, dont mess with it , trouble 'Pandora's Box ' (most people ) 2. To be 'fore learned' is to be fore armed - also the maxim ' know thyself ' , know what constitutes the human psyche . ( people like Steiner, etc . ) If you want to try GD stuff , start with the pentagram ritual and practice clearing your psychic space and strengthening the balancing of the energies around you 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
