Other Blood
Magical myth regards humanity in a broad sense as that state of mind in which light and vessel — the potentialities and the power of their realization — are brought as close as possible, yet do not intersect. In other words, a human is a being situated on the threshold between spirit and matter, between the active and passive states of being, yet belonging to neither.
The human mind corresponds to a point of equilibrium between the dreaming mind, characteristic of lower forms of mind, and the flow consciousness characteristic of higher forms.
That means beings that are evolutionarily lower than humans are less free, since they are subject to elemental causes, and beings that stand higher on the evolutionary ladder are also less free, because they are subject to conscious causes. An animal is not free because it is not aware of its place in the order of the world, but neither are the gods free, because they are too well aware of that place and its connections. Ministering spirits are even less free, since their will is not individual but belongs to the Currents of Power.
Thus, in the broad sense of the term, humanity is the realm of greatest freedom of choice — both in the macrocosmic sense and in more particular senses.
Thus the human condition offers the widest spectrum of possibilities for the development of mind. At the same time, the human state is also the most error-prone state of mind, since freedom of choice is inconceivable without the possibility of mistake.
Be that as it may, a human (not in the sense of the “earthly human,” but in the sense of a particular level of development of mind) is the “center of the cosmos” not in the sense of “perfection” or megalomania, but in the sense of equidistance from its poles.
Therefore the human position is highly attractive to beings who wish to achieve certain ends but are unable to do so at their own level, whose capacity for choice is more limited.
If a god, an alv or any other being superior to humans wants to exit the cycle of rebirth, it can do so only from the human position. In other words, a god who wishes to leave the Gilgul must be born human. At the same time, however, such a being risks becoming stuck in this condition for a long time, because humans face many temptations. The same applies to any other beings, and even to ministering spirits (with the sole difference that the decision to be born among humans is not taken by them independently).
This human position has a number of important consequences. First, the human world has always been the scene of the fiercest battles, because possessing the largest share of resources in this world also gives an advantage in accumulating Power.
Second, human souls have always been desired by predators, since they, on the one hand, contain considerable Power and, on the other, considerable folly, and are therefore relatively easy to capture.
Third, among humans there have always been a fairly large number of beings who possess a different level of development of awareness but have artificially adapted it to the human level — that is, beings born among humans who are, in essence, not human. Moreover, by leaving offspring among humans, such beings also impart their energy to them via the physiological egregore, which alters the balance of forces in the world.
It’s all true… but how exactly to account for it – isn’t written on the internet 🙂 However, when there is understanding or at least a general idea of who you really are, the knowledge of goals and Paths comes as well. Overall – an article with good hints 🙂
An amazing article!
How can one determine that a certain person (or I myself) is not quite human, but is related to another being or is itself another being?
Everything must be subjected to careful and multiple analysis: behavior in childhood, childhood habits, clothing specifics, internal prohibitions on certain actions, attitudes towards people in general – as humanity, signs of a ‘white crow’, unwillingness to ‘get dirty’, understanding the general situation in society and the world through indirect signs, and, of course, various ‘strange events’ happening periodically… )
Yes, a good question – how to understand who you are, what you are, and why you are 🙂 I currently have a problem with this.
Who are you? And why are you here?
And how might the paths of development and the nature of battles differ? Could you give an example?
The task of a person in incarnation is to develop, to accumulate power; if a being is born with a different form of consciousness, then it has, accordingly, different tasks, which it must focus on accomplishing.
Hello, dear Enmerkar! I have long been occupied with the problem of “otherness” (azerkinism) and “other blood.” Tell me, is there a method to understand who is in front of you – a human or an azerc? Or here nothing can be said without prolonged observation and personal contact? It seems to me that self-determination plays a decisive role, how the subject identifies themselves. Although one can be mistaken here too – people love to play someone else… I am grateful in advance! And thank you for your site 🙂
So it turns out that as a person develops, they strive to limit their freedom? (Particularly applicable to mages) After all, by developing and perfecting spiritually, we come to an understanding of the essence of existence, and thus limit and seek to limit this freedom given from birth?
That is true. Freedom is not related to the achievements of evolution. But that is why Magic is not just the acceleration of evolution; it is the change of its direction: if evolution is aimed at increasing the volumes of Power processed by consciousness, then Magic aims to increase the efficiency of this processing.
Theoretically, a being should calculate its incarnation. Something like what you wrote about ‘kindred’ souls: ‘all ‘kindred’ souls are born not far from each other and must meet’. Understanding this, as I understand it, is quite an important part of the Quest? And the answer may lie not only in the inner world but also in the outer?
Good day. With beings that are evolutionarily lower compared to humans, it is somewhat clear, but why do more evolutionarily advanced beings find themselves dependent on recognized causations? After all, they theoretically possess greater awareness and therefore should theoretically make fewer mistakes and have greater chances of taking actions that could lead them to the desired place.
Even for a person, it is accessible to understand ‘high-level unfreedom.’ This is called responsibility. For beings of a higher level of development, this responsibility transforms from a moral category into an imperative given.
And one more question: is the human world a stable system? that is, many dangers have been mentioned that could befall the human world. From Indigo children to loss of seals. What are the consequences of this? How stable is this system? Or as a result of the above-mentioned events, could freedom of choice be lost?
The world is stable only to the extent that it is supported by collective consciousness. The more people intend the world to be in a certain state, the more stable that state is.
So, what it results in: if people become more irresponsible, does the world sink down the evolutionary ladder, while if they become more responsible, the world rises? And will this affect the possibility of freedom of choice?
Don’t you see what’s happening now? We are almost at the bottom… if everyone doesn’t start acting now, soon there will be no one left to evolve… except for cockroaches )
If a fairy embodied as a human must ‘practice human magic, but with a fairy’s nuance’, is this fair for other beings as well?
“So it turns out that as a person develops, they strive to limit their freedom? (Especially applicable to magicians) After all, by developing and perfecting ourselves spiritually, we come to understand the essence of the universe, and thus limit ourselves and strive for a limitation of the freedom that is given to us from birth?”
Moreover, we rid ourselves of the foolishness that often leads us to ruin and more serious troubles.
“But why do more evolutionarily developed beings find themselves dependent on the perceived causations? After all, in theory, they possess greater awareness and, correspondingly, should make fewer mistakes and have a better chance of taking actions that can lead them to their desired place.”
Perhaps because they can see the ‘strings of the puppeteer’ and the consequences of their actions more clearly)
Dear Enmerkar, perhaps you are imagining how the human body is threaded onto “non-human” energy or “non-human blood”? After all, we, for the most part, do not see the movement of energies. But we can feel. What features does such a body have? Or does its—the bodies—construction nullify it? How would one ever guess who is in a spacesuit if they did not know this beforehand.
The human body is built from the material of the mother’s body, and therefore even if the incarnating consciousness has a karmic connection with other forms and bodies, it is forced to rely on what is built in the current situation. So a certain dissonance may arise; however, it is important to understand that the ability to work with that dissonance may be the task of the current incarnation, since the very forces of causality, the inherent impulses direct consciousness into an “unsuitable” body.
Yes, the work is never-ending.) Thank you for your answer.
To understand, one must start with the basics. The foundation is the matrix of consciousness and what is embedded in it. The matrix of the world is laid down by its founder. For the existence of the world, the generation based on contradiction (+ and -) is important. If you noticed, one of the foundations in this world is Overcoming. For example: to start smoking and then to overcome it. Acquire – lose – conquer – give. It doesn’t matter what. The foundational principle embedded in the matrix is overcoming. This is one of many principles of generating energy in this world. And those studying the matrix need to pay attention to this. To understand a person, their foundations, they need to know the composition of the symbiosis energies. There are four main types. The body is compressed information, as it enters the composition. With a certain skill, the body can be rebuilt, creating a new one or regenerating “withering” areas.
