FINALLY updated the library with Aghori's materials. There may be duplicates and I decided against splitting folder too much.

Got a couple books on Chod coming down the pipeline, probably some Kali Puja as well, like some of the kaula material I'm not sure what I've posted or not. The new books this year have started to slowly trickle out but I'm not sure what's actually worthwhile yet. Word on the grapevine is there's some foul rumblings from inside Fulgur, which is pretty par for the course.

I think now that it's been a while since Jeva passed I may start scanning those Illuminati rituals again. They're stupid important and I'm still not seeing a pdf floating around.

Someone last thread was asking of that edition of Troa was legit. It is and that's the version in my library. You'll notice the cover has a notation which reads (paraphrase) "And also a ritual suitable for the celebration of the Equinox". AC's papers were divided up long ago, that Equinox ritual's the unpublished one in the AA folder of the Yorke Microfilms.

Spirit guide = call it what you want higher self, spirit guide, a being that there is to help and guide you?

How many sigils do you think you can make in a day? Would it be beneficial to make multiple at once, making it easier to forget the exact conscious purpose of each symbol and dividing your focus onto multiple things?

On another note, tried making a sigil this afternoon, did a bunch of weird stuff to charge it, which included dancing to hype as fuck music and then forcing myself to feel extremely emotional by thinking of the feelsiest moments from all the feelsiest movies. Then burned the stuff I used to write it out and plan the designs for it in the garden, when it started burning a lot of heavy snow started to fall and it immediately stopped once it was nothing but ash. Not really related but it felt really cool.

As many as you need. If the operation calls for it.

That's just synchronicity. It's neat but more a side effect than and end unto itself. I had some stuff with the snow too. Anyway, if you're working chaos sigils, just do what needs done, no more, no less. If you need a few, inscribe them...if you only need one, inscribe it.

Bardo Thodol, obviously, but I dunno which texts cover actually diverting the mindstream into Pure Land. Bardo Thodol implies it's kind of a spontaneous thing, either you're attained enough to recognize essential reality of one of the two infinite lights or you're strapped in for Shri Chitipati's Wild Ride.

But Thodol's a lay text in a lot of capacities. I'll thumb through the Vajra folder to see if there's anything explicit.
>>

Yeah, I'm looking for explicit. This friend of mind is in a nihilist streak and wants to "ascend" to higher planes beyond depression.

Yeah, Arawakan, Tupian, and various N. South American clan songs. Some tribes even go so far to embed semanticality into individual notes or sounds or structures.

Magick squares are fine but JoS can get fucked.

>>17356048
Yes, it does.

Check out the coherence between liminality (ritual theory), suspension of disbelief (chaos magic) and bypassing the critical factor (hypnosis).

All those are the same thing. Changes in the mind and brain of the operator objectively happen, as has been shown again and again, in studies on ritual, hypnosis, and magical thinking (suggestibility and superstition).

Get your shit straight before vomiting ignorance.

That said, I do agree that there is entirely no evidence for anything supernatural taking place, if that's what you actually meant, you mouthbreather.

Working my way trhough Enochian Magick.

I'm stil in early stages, so, if any can help me with some doubts. I understand you contact an angel and then what? you just speak, you ask questions, you request something.

For instance, if you contact a Senior, let's say, LSRAHPM, He who slays, I could ask about killing or ruining someone's life, right? Or if a contact LAIDROM, He who knows the secrets of truth, I could speak to it in order to get knowledge and advance my spiritual evolution, is that how it works?

Another thing, how do you know they will grant you a request, don't they ask for something?

Want to know some experiences with Enochian.
>>
>>17356076
First and foremost. If they show up at all, you know you're in deep shit, as they WILL always make things happen towards supporting their own agenda.

Secondly, usually you won't get what you asked for, but something better, which is aligned with IAIDA's agenda.

Thirdly. Expect a shit-ton of weird shit.

>>17356076
To answer your question, Enochian is an outdated scam. One of the "divine transcribed messages" from Dee's faithful scryer was "pay me more money or I'll quit", in Greek, which he learned during his university studies under his original family name "Talbot".

People may swear by its effectiveness, but this says far more about the delusional instability of those who believe in "magical powers" than it does about the existence of supernatural agents.
>>
>>17356110
Oh, absolutely. I'm just saying, even if it's an entirely personal, neurological process, Enochian has a certain consistency amongst people, and that "agenda" comes up over and over again among practitioners. It's hard to ignore when it's that consistent.

What's their agenda? Even at this early point, I'm pretty sure they're not angels.

>>17356110

Well, my approach to magic is somewhat similar to Regardie's, I do think we work on some personal subconcious level and weird shit happens, so I take everything with a pinch of salt. Still think our microcosm is connected to some Source, but that's a very personal idea.

>>17356117
That agenda sounds like some egregore shit between enochian magicians.

But my question remains, dont they ask for anything? I'm thinking with a Goetia mentality.

Also, other questions. Supposedly you work with good angels, what abou the bad ones? Are they worse?

>Enochian has a certain consistency amongst people, and that "agenda" comes up over and over again among practitioners. It's hard to ignore when it's that consistent.

It's called "priming".

This is psych 100 stuff.

It's like asking you to not imagine a white polar bear, and lo and behold, you imagine a white polar bear.

A far more interesting experiment would be to have people who aren't egomaniacs, therefore not interested in occultism, babble incoherent Kelly made-up jumbled consonant words, and see if they still experience the same egomaniacal results that your typical egomaniac occultist does.

>It's hard to ignore when it's that consistent.

"Magick" seems to be an ineffective patchwork jobs for those who already suffer from severe mental illness. A short trip to any type of "occult" convention will confirm this for anybody.

>Has it actually helped you go that little extra beyond in stuff like school, work, love, or whatever else you do? Would you say your life is different from when you first started practicing, or is your view of life the biggest change?

Quite honestly, what do you think? If studying occultism produced the best and the brightest CEOs with awesome trophy wives, do you seriously think any of these cucks would be sitting around posting on an Afgani camel racing enthusiest forum?

They justify their waste of time by claiming they're doing something like "strengthening the (nonexistent) Astral Body)" or "Attuning their energies to the Earth (in terms of forms of energy which don't actually exist)".

How come you guys only use White people sources?

Does your 'Occultism' Infer like Christians that your subverted view of 'God' or God-like Consciousness is greater than all others, or are you all just White dudes/women trying to connect to your AetherMachina's (body's) highest Arcane Potential?

I've been doing Shua fora couple days, mostly on the advanced visualizations. They're good. It's a good contemplative demonstration of the underlying principles of Black Oracle and the yearly circle of rites. It's sorta what has me interested in Chod along with the kangling I'll hopefully have soon. They say advanced earth is hard to pull off but I had zero issues provided I did the final water visualization of pulling all fluid from my body...pretty easy to crumble to dust when you're mummified.

Careful you don't rumble any local dolans with your main Shua practice. It looks like the goal is to dominate the local area you're in out to a few..five or seven miles or something.

Also, found a Three Hands texts that displays images of witch jugs from a museum...took the fuckers long enough to establish historicity but there it is.

There's so weird ethnomasochism in occult circles, just like SJW circles.

Just like they cling to the hilarious fallacy of "older is better", they also cling to "non-white is better". Hence the obsession with eastern practices, shamanism, and 100% white people pretending to be Native American.

I'm not really sure why this is, as I'm not well versed in mental disorders.

Its funny because most 'white people practice' is actually forgotten, and I think the occultists try to get at that fact and I always roll them with my dying ancestor souls for retribution, and to ease tensions in general.
More modern practice is really just Hindu civilization with a merchant's twist, which really gets at the lexical differences, rather than any actual tradition.

I wonder if the same mental disorder logic can be applied to the 1% and their illogical wantonous rancor in this ecosystem.

You mean like the Azoetia, DBoE, and basically all the content we've produced amongst ourselves?

Also fwiw my practice is directly derived from current scientific findings. So d/w/it

>cling to "non-white is better"
If it's better, it's better. The issue is that most white tech is intermingled with Jew tech, and that's intermingled with Arab tech.

For something purely white, you'd need to pick up Celtic, Germanic, Nordic or Slavic beliefs, and they're quite vague and badly preserved.

Not really unusable, but difficult to work with due to a lack of precise content.

That would be correct in the wide sense, and incorrect strictly.

Because that would require a mechanism by which your actions would have an effect on the electromagnetic forces of the sun.

>>17357810
Physics is a conceptual system for describing platonic universals. In this context physics would be an attempt (albeit a very very good one) to describe a portion of god, but unless you're a materialist it would only be a partial description. In most western esoteric traditions the sum of god is not something the human can comprehend so "god" is examined in partial aspects, in this case the various gods and natural sciences.

I have a question.

What is with the recent (and I don't just mean the weekend) influx of so called 'rationalists' or 'magic doesnt real' fags? Not even just in /omg/ but in the whole of /x/.

I find it difficult to believe that there would be this much concerted effort to piss on a parade without some motivating factor.

I'm actually fairly skeptically minded myself and will engage in questioning of some of the more outlandish or clearly incorrect or unsupportable theories, but the tenacity of our current crop of shitposters is somewhat more suspect isn't it? It's a lot of effort just to troll a bunch of "schizos".

Because the loudest people in the "occult" are anglo-saxons who have a history of colonization and because of that, the way they relate to other cultures is by exoticising them, turning them into fetish objects. Not to mention that for "white" people that protestant background they have blinds them to the magic that was innate to their ancestors, unlike catholic countries where magic is an every day thing and syncretism is how you relate to other people's cultures.

TL;DR years of protestant masochism has turned anglosaxon "white" people into wusses whose approach to magic sucks as much as their dancing

I have no idea. The blurb on the cover made it seem really interesting but I've had my head up Chod's ass for like a week. Says for each card it pulls and explains um...ten symbols on each card and has hundreds of HQ close up pics. Seems solid. Crowley's Book of Thoth approached the thing as a whole, this seems to pick out individual trees in the forest.
>>
>>17359085
>Says for each card it pulls and explains um...ten symbols on each card and has hundreds of HQ close up pics.
The symbols don't seem all that useful tbqh, and Crowley went into painful detail relating what every element of each card does.

I mean, my bet is that it's going to prove to rely on the pictures alone, while the text is devoid of anything useful when compared to Crowley's book.

I honestly have no clue because I'm not a Buddhist. Chod seems appealing but it developed outside the Vajrayana superstructure until it was brought in...

Kalachakra Tantra is a method of initiation into low impact deity devotional guided by the Dali Lama himself. There's also a text on self initiation into Vajrabhairava, which I'd approach with caution.

I also wouldn't start on those if you're a total noob to Buddhist thought.

I do vipassana and a form of silent japa meditation and have gained quite the benefits in my everyday life, but i was mostly interested in Vajrayana because i wanted to get into the "alchemical/energetic" practices without having to deal with the annoying goodie-goodie buddhism. I guess i'll look into Chod to get a basic understanding of the practices.
>>
>>17359282
Well, Vajrayana will get you there; tantriks see no division between pure and impure. The issue arises in the Dzongchen (sp?) structure whereby the training they put you through on the way to the Vajra requires oaths of austerity that tend to be held long past entry into Vajrayana, hence symbolic practices, brass kapalas, yak bone kanglings, tulpa diddling, etc.

Frankly if you want real tantra, I'd advise going full blown Hindu but not everyone is called to the same shit.

Its supposed to be an archaeological study on religion, except if these fags could stop pretending to be so prestigious for being delusional, they'd open an archaeology book from people who actually went to Ekesregal and studied the relics, rather than speculating from some library...

Religion in the real world began so people could be in close proximity without turning into Cain from the bible.
Considering many of their lineages, and their obvious sociability issues, they seek to rid themselves of this evolution in the brain to become 'closer to god' by emulating the brain of our less advanced ancestors through maladaptive daydreaming disorder and drugs...

Yeah, for pdf. Though I do convert to epub because pdf is shitty on this thing; no zoom, no nothing.

It's a Vedia K10. Quite decent for all I needed of it, which is mostly reading poetry and the library books.

>after reading through tens of pages on aesthetics in Azoetia the CS system appears to be the magickal equivalent of vaporwave.

Kek, in what way?

Yeah I'm looking forward to having a personalised version of DBoE that isn't a million pages long for the simplest operation. Chumbley reeeealy liked his own writing.

Alteratively, it could be used as Cultural Learnings for Make Glorious Great Order of OSOAA, but that'd mean a bit of a structural revision of the whole AA system, which may or may not be a runner.

To my mind he seems to annoy ritualists because he comes off as le spooky wicca for hipsters (when in fact his stuff is more ritual-focused than most out there), and he annoys the Wicca crowd because they expect a warm fuzzy, Witchvox blanket, and get a ridiculously obscure book telling them to go outside and worship the devil, and read badwrong white males like Chumbley and Grant

It is.

>Chumbley reeeealy liked his own writing.

Have you considered that the reading itself is part of the magickal process?

Indirect suggestion through style and words is quite a common theme in ritual, and Crowley used it A LOT.

Haribol. I was thinking that your collection might benefit from the more esoteric works of Narayana Maharaja and the Gaudiya Math. Particularly those dealing with raganuga bhakti and manjari bhava.

Etc. Also, more on Az'ra'il in Azoetia...more on everything. I've stopped trying to grok the structure of the book and it's really helping me roll with it. I highly doubt Azoetia' THAT related to DBoE - Azoetia was Chumbley's aesthetic; find yours.

Fair point, just saying I wish he'd indirectly suggested all he needed to suggest in less than 800 pages

>The Telaesthetic Path of Mediation between the Summoner and the Summoned is the Sense which unifies and yet moves between and beyond the Five Senses of Corporeality.
TL;DR: I can make myself hallucinate without external sensory input!

>The Telaesthetic Path is the Arcanum realised through the Contemplation of the Sacred Principles of Aesthesis.
TL;DR: how do senses work.

>And so, being made subject to the Purity of Divine Aesthesis, the Alphabet of the Sorcerer is begotten. Thus all Sigils are written by the Hand of Man guided by the Spirit of the Ancient One :-I-: ever-becoming in the momentary exaction of the Sacred Alphabet, whose Purity of Form is transcendent of its Temporal Ciphers

I.e. communication with the automatic mind is established via symbol and ritual.

>The Divine Artist must be aware of such beliefs as will confine, distort or condition the Sacred Principles of Aesthesis.

I.e. don't lose your fucking mind just because you saw shit. Stay rational.

>He must turn to his own advantage those beliefs that offend in this matter and make full use of such faith as is contrary unto his own.

I.e. the more you change, the easier it is to change further. Elasticity is learned and conditioned, not inherent.

>By incorporating the reversal or 'Blasphemy' of a belief-structure into his own rites he overthrows its past or potential ability to establish any automatic and conditioned aesthetic response - such as may hinder or obstruct his Work.

I.e. exactly what hypnotherapy does - work towards personal integration on all levels.

>He may thus empty a belief of its value and fashion the 'Evil' of his Blasphemy into the Sanctity of 'Ritual-Sigils', thus to employ the belief as he wishes.

I.e. desensitization and utilization.

>>17360398
He could, but it wouldn't be his aesthetic then.

That said, I do strongly believe that he's kinda just trolling with the being wordy thing.

>Why write for the explicit purpose of being misunderstood?
No clue.

>It's the zenith of anti-intellectualism.
Entirely agreed.
>>
>>17360419
Yeah, joining a cult to become an archaeologist makes no sense.

Also, as far as the possibility of becoming more knowledgeable on the psyche, when regardless of what the fuck ancient tablets say, hasn't really fucking changed much ever, is really low.
You'd be better off making your own theories, or abstracting all the shit in a way you can manage with your precognition or astral clairvoyance... You are after all entangled to your future, so only you can tell...

But occultists don't believe in science, or energy, or force, or calling anything to do with psychology anything but some old words which can't be interpreted better than some other dead faglet.

Anything of real substance can be described simply and straightforwardly. At the very least, they could describe the practical applications of "occultism" and the results they have experienced thereof. After all, what is more important then real results?

Patrick John Larabee also seems to be producing DBoE-related art.

[won't let me post link, just google him]

Seems to have published quite a bit, too.

Intrestingly, on the fb page for his art, he has a piece inspired by Thunder, Perfect Mind. Looks like we were right about it being DBoE-relevant, K.


Pic related is his take on Lilya-Devala, afaik.

I wonder if he's a member, or just a keen admirer? It's noticeable that he's been publised by a few presses, but not Xoanon or THP. Can't figure out if Aeon Sophia are related or not.

Can I have a link to this reading list, please?

For everyone else: Any reading recommendations on understanding pranayama in general? I am working up to use the exercise found in Liber E:
http://hermetic.com/crowley/libers/lib9.html#4

It would be nice to understand why different ratios are used, what exactly it does, any safety precautions, etc. etc. Is there anything else to add to the reading list found at the bottom of this liber?

>Any reading recommendations on understanding pranayama in general?
No. But the goal is this: find a rhythm. Make the rhythm automatic. While it's happening observe it, and drop suggestions to the end you want to achieve. In general, for pranayama, it's "purity". Charging up. Such things.

>safety precautions
Don't overdo it. You can get literal brain damage if you force it too far.

Lilith is also said to have been born from the same earth as Adam (as opposed to Eve, born from his rib).

Is Chumbley implying a Lilith-Sophia link here?

Well, you can't consciously.

What you can do is attach positive feelings to what you want to believe, and find a way to benefit from that belief.

You could try practicing pranyama until you get brain damage. Then maybe you'll be dumb enough to believe in magic.
