Magical Rings
It is well known that the instrument directing the current of energy of any being, both in the cognitive and in the practical direction, is attention. As the saying goes, “energy flows where attention is directed.” Accordingly, those regions of the mind that are “illuminated” by the light of attention are “active” and available for ordered psychocosmic activity; those parts of the “external” world toward which attention is directed are “targets” for the realizational currents of energy; and those parts of bodies that participate in the manifestation of attention are the “emitters” that guide the currents of energy.
The hands, as the primary organ of action, are always associated with directed, transformational, and practical activities a person performs outwardly. Accordingly, the hands are also energetically active emitters, taking part in various exchanges and interactions. It is also well known that, like many body parts, the hands are “polarized” in their energetic structure — generally the right hand is giving and the left receiving energy (questions of energy polarization are too complex to address here). Moreover, each finger has different energies and is traditionally associated with various planetary influences.
At the same time, control of the energy flows emitted by communicative organs (including, of course, the hands) is extremely important for the ordinary person, and even more so for the magus, whose main aim is control and rational use of all his energetic resources.
This control can come from two sources: from the body and from the mind. It is clear that the “central,” conscious mechanisms for managing energy currents are more reliable and universal. It is evident that training in conscious control of one’s energy is the most important part of magical preparation. Yet even for an experienced magus, and all the more for a student, situations commonly arise in which the stream of attention becomes diverted from strict control over certain emitting centers — either because it must be redirected toward a strategically more important aim, or because of insufficient strength or concentration. In such cases, more basic control mechanisms that do not require constant attention or effort become necessary.
Such mechanisms include various magical paraphernalia that perform the functions of points of support and the ordering of the corresponding energies.
For the hands, as parts that are highly active energetically and furthermore that emit and absorb many kinds of energy, instruments for ordering and directing include magical rings, signets, and bracelets.
Closed metal (or other-material) structures serve as magical circles for individual currents of energy, enclosing those currents in a kind of “sheath,” which, of course, greatly eases control of the current.
One would probably be hard-pressed to find a magus who could do without them — not only because many magi love ornamentation and adornment, but also for pragmatic reasons.
The metal from which a ring is made, any stone set into it, the designs (or inscriptions) engraved on it, the finger on which the ring is worn — all of these are of great importance to the ring’s function.
The role and power of magical rings have not been doubted by magi throughout the history of the Royal Art. It was by means of the Ring that the legendary King Solomon initiated the macrocosmic ordering of destructive energies — the creation of the “Copper Pitcher.”
Thus, due to the exceptional effectiveness of the ring as a structure and instrument that allows one to exert a radical influence on the energetic processes within the magus’s own body and on his interactions with the surrounding world, a cavalier attitude toward rings is unacceptable.
A magus must remember that magical rings are less adornments (although, of course, the aesthetic element and the inspiration that arises from it are not insignificant) than tools, transformers and condensers, lenses and windows, through which the flow of energy can be changed, both qualitatively and quantitatively, literally beyond recognition.
Accordingly, choosing a ring is a serious responsibility, success can be critical in magical battles, and a reckless attitude can be fatal.
I am not talking about rings; I simply do not know where to write this, so let it be here)
I watched your video, from the recent ones. Thank you, it was very interesting.
But I just didn’t understand anything about the Runes. There are energies within a person, there are energies outside in the world. These energies can be connected and controlled through the Runes. I didn’t understand if these energies exist without tradition? Tradition, as I understand it, explains what these forces, flows, and waves are, what actions this produces on the internal and external state… Tradition allows one to correctly select one’s state for perception, recognition, understanding, and managing these flows. It’s like a guide that makes it clearer… Am I understanding this correctly?
And I also remember from your video about how to know the true or false impulses of the heart. You know, I am not a mage, but it seems to me that if the heart, like any other organ, can be influenced, as well as the chakras and the principle on the field of a person, and with the same Runes, spells, rituals, etc., then hearing whether it is true or something imposed is just unrealistic. The only way is through trial and error. To go where going seems impossible and then figure out WHAT it was. Well, and along the way, to fall, to rise, to make mistakes, to confirm correctness (truthfulness), to disillusion oneself…
Circumstances are given to us for us to gain experience; people are so we can either remain with these people or forget them. But not forget what these people have given us.
I’m sorry, I can’t help it. I know you’re smart and flattery repels you, but I will say it anyway. I’m simply in awe of your knowledge, logic, and the effort you’ve put into all this. And a complete lack of commercialization and monetization 🙂 Simply and modestly: here are the books, 200 copies, if you want – buy them, if you can’t – read the website. This is very strange against the background of all these “advanced-enlightened” ones.
In general, thank you, and I think this is not just from me)
Also not on the topic of the article)) But if possible, I want to note that the video format is a wonderful idea! I listened to the first two interviews and caught myself thinking that I agree with every word, as if my own thoughts and understandings, which I have come to over the years, were articulated.
So, as they say, we will wait for the continuation)
And it would be great to post links to these interviews on the Blog (like to books) because if the previous comment hadn’t mentioned the existence of video – I wouldn’t have thought to search on YouTube…
Maxim, I liked the unofficial video on a user’s page on VKontakte more. I’m a lover of “atmosphere,” and that crackling fire in the fireplace, which is the only light in the room, creates a sense of presence and meditation. Therefore, the words about the Path are perceived in a special way. I don’t know if you will find that video…
Just yesterday, I thought to myself, “it’s good that there’s the Enmerkar website,” when I stumbled upon a page of a “witch,” like one of those who want to join a battle of psychics, who sends curses left and right and has a ton of followers who are in awe… Thanks to the “battle of psychics,” many people rush into magic and think that’s how it is. Whoever is cooler is the magician. The one with the most trinkets is the witch. And they don’t realize that they need to develop themselves and their Consciousness. I also managed to be in such a swamp at an initial stage… And if you look at it now, most people are secretly or openly practicing witchcraft, dealing with runes… But the quality of the Consciousness of such people leaves much to be desired. The exit of magic from the sacredness is most likely a forced measure, conditioned by time, while some insist it’s tied to a change of aeons. But there is a rather strong danger here not only because sacredness is lost but also because there is a certain parasitic inertia in mass consciousness that is hard to overcome.
And since we are writing not on topic here, I noticed another strange pattern on this website. I noticed it back with “Maria – cognitive dissonance.” I even took the time to familiarize myself with the site from the beginning, paying attention to the comments. The person was clearly capable of rational thinking – as most of us are (at first, some of her thoughts could even be dissected for quotes), but then she fell into some emotional depths of accusations and began behaving inappropriately. She started to stalk and throw dirt, which in my mind doesn’t associate with the nature of this person. And I have observed alternating bursts of this aggression – accusations, but in others, I have sometimes seen it, including in myself. It resembles some kind of illness)) The motive, or rather the reason, of which I am still unaware.
In my opinion, magic has very good protection against being used by just anyone. It is not a gun that any inadequate person can pull the trigger on; the main requirement is the very presence of the charged tool. Without proper development of Consciousness, energy, will, etc., even spells at the level of curses or love charms will not work effectively. Transmission through the Line of the Ancestors or the transfer of Power does not happen often. A simple person reading a couple of “powerful” spells in the kitchen is unlikely to bring about significant changes in “reality.” So I don’t see a great danger to the world from little witches on social media. Their admirers are usually similar in nature; if there were no “magical gurus,” they would find religious or some other figures to idolize.
As for the emotions and accusations in the comments—on a global scale, this stems from the very fact of transcendental loneliness, and in reality, it is incredibly challenging to find people with whom even pleromatic relationships are possible. Aggression is a reaction to the alienness of others. Here, one must either follow the path of humbling one’s pride, like in early Christian and similar communities, which few magicians would do, or continue to search…
There is a significant difference between humility and self-deprecation. The path of transforming one’s pride into the wisdom of equanimity is essential for a mage to traverse. However, it is also crucial not to fall into self-suppression, self-blame, or a “sense of insignificance” (https://en.enmerkar.com/drugoe/chuvstvo-sobstvennoj-nevazhnosti). Moreover, it is important to understand that equanimity does not mean uniformity; it merely signifies a rejection of evaluative perception: everything is equally important (and everything is equally unimportant), yet simultaneously, everything is absolutely necessary; everything must be experienced, realized, and manifested. Equanimity means that every unique element of the universe is irreplaceable for its wholeness, for its maximum manifestation, and that there are no “more irreplaceable” or “less irreplaceable” unique elements. All are equally irreplaceable.
Aggression stems precisely from the misunderstanding of this fact: the world is valuable for its diversity, and the more an individual’s uniqueness is manifested (https://en.enmerkar.com/magus-way/proyavlennaya-individualnost), the more it differs from others. Yet, at the same time, it can interact with them in an even greater number of unique ways, which means that its realization is fuller (and its influence on the realization of those it interacts with is more pronounced). Instead of pushing away those who are unlike them, it would be far more productive to recognize this difference between dissimilar people, to see it as a means of self-discovery through new interactions, and to derive from this understanding the possibility for personal growth and expanded consciousness.
Loneliness also arises from a lack of awareness of the value of this individuality, when an entity seeks not someone who can complement it, help it manifest itself, and reflect it, but rather someone who is similar, someone with whom interaction is least energetically taxing. If people sought not those with whom they feel at ease, but rather those who provide them with opportunities for maximum self-expression and self-development, this problem would not exist. As it stands, the world is overflowing with empty relationships, energetically barren interactions, which people nevertheless spend their time and attention on.
Beneath aggression always lies fear. A balanced person is free from aggression.
The idea of Transcendental solitude is usually used as a cover by those who are afraid to leave their comfort zone, as building relationships is often painful and uncomfortable.
We show aggression when another person irritates us. There are two types of aggression – aggression as defense (when, for example, someone irritates us by violating our boundaries… Just like with animals, if they feel that you pose a danger to them, you will be met with their aggression). This is a rather ancient, protective instinct. But we also exhibit aggression as a means of attack. I have noticed that attackers tend to violate the personal boundaries of others, switching to a familiar form of address (“you”), believing that they know the other side like the back of their hand. That is, in their consciousness, they have decided that the other person is part of them (more precisely, they have a strong desire to become one with the opposing side). But in reality… In reality, they cannot accept that side, or more accurately, certain aspects of it. They get offended and start trying to “correct” the other person, claiming they are doing it out of the best intentions. But in fact, they cannot accept something that makes up individuality; there will always be differences. They think it is the other person who irritates them, but in reality, the source of irritation is themselves. Because what they do not accept in others, they also deny in themselves. I analyzed a specific situation, and the source of rejection was a deep psychological trauma, which appeared to me in the form of a silent, helpless little person with his hands tied behind his back. Neither I nor any external figures had tied those hands for him. He looked like a madman, but he wasn’t; he understood everything perfectly. My presence caused him discomfort. And when I, with the tone of a kind father, began to speak about how there is nothing wrong or dangerous about acceptance, pain reflected in his eyes, followed by fear. The trauma associated with pain is the cause of aggression. I did not delve into its causes, as it requires fully immersing oneself in one’s inner world, because it is quite profound, I would say, pre-personal. In such immersion, objects of the psyche are perceived by consciousness as real characters that can affect consciousness at will and also cause harm.
If you muster the courage to relive everything, to find the strength within yourself to look at yourself from the outside, through pain, fear, and your personal deep sorrow, you will find the strength to accept everything entirely, without needing to clarify the details. The pain from what you have experienced becomes much greater than the pain of the truth, and everything will work out; then along with denial, the refusal to accept (or unwillingness) will fade away. It no longer matters what exactly was the cause because all the good is accepted and balanced with the bad. In reality, this process of acceptance takes only a moment of sharp pain, and then it’s over. You just need to make the decision and act, first recognizing and acknowledging the truth, and that’s it. This part of your consciousness can be perceived as a parasite that enjoys keeping a person on a leash.
It is unlikely that one can rid themselves of pain with just a sheer willpower effort. After all, we are human beings—feeling creatures, not robots that can be reprogrammed with a single click.
…..”When a warrior encounters pain on his Path, he drinks this cup to the dregs. And then he puts a period. And turns the page”….
The process of healing from pain can be very long, with setbacks and relapses.
The key here is not “pain,” but “making a decision.” If you are ready, everything will work out. You agree that there is no difference between the good and the bad within you and within the one who is the cause of your pain; you step over that, and that is the moment that changes everything forever. After that, simply affirm this, and your suffering will come to an end for good. Simply sadness, longing, hope, and pain no longer have any meaning.
You can affirm your decision through reason and willpower, but if the Heart, if Feelings are shouting for something else, for an opposite decision, then a focus of inner contradiction forms within the Consciousness. “Suppressed emotions do not die.” They retreat into the shadows and continue to unconsciously influence a person’s thoughts and actions. I do not dispute your opinion… I have seen confirmation of my words many times.
“When a warrior encounters pain on his Path, he drinks this cup to the dregs. And then he puts a period. And turns the page.
…
When a warrior meets pain on his way, he finds the one who caused that pain. And if he did it intentionally, he makes him drink a cup of pain and suffering so that it won’t happen again.
…
But this is not a warrior. This is some kind of whore from a brothel.
…or a plant.”
“… The dictionary says that pain –
Is torment, suffering, illness,
But someone said, – ‘you are alive,
If you feel suffering.’
So pain is an eternal affliction,
It is the price for living on earth,
And perhaps the very word ‘life’
Is a division, an illness….”
An illness that is transmitted through sexual means)
In my case, pain is impersonal, it has no external causes. All of us living on earth, when we embodied, signed a contract called “pain.” But something tells me that pain really needs to be experienced to the last drop, to the very end. It will become easier, and life will cease to be a tragedy and will become a Game. In general, this is my version. Your versions are also useful. For you. Listen to your own advice, as you actually directed it to yourself.)
To everyone here talking about aggression, except for Ena and Maxim.
…
* How many real battles have you won without aggression? (Aside from illusory couch battles.)
* How many strategic victories have you achieved without aggression?
* How many real enemies/rivals have you defeated through contemplation and composure?
* And how do you translate “aggression” into Russian?
…
It’s very amusing to watch women talk about things they have never done themselves.
This is a path to nowhere. “He who controls himself conquers cities.” Aggression leads to a loss of strength, to irritation, to weakening, and to counter-aggression. Therefore, it is definitely a path to nowhere. You know, there are no unequivocal winners in war; everyone loses something irretrievably.
“And two thousand years – war. A war without any special reasons.
War is the business of the young, a remedy against wrinkles.”
……”Aggression arises from the fear of being defeated.”
And aggression is needed when no other methods are left, and when a person absolutely understands that they are ready for anything. And if there is even a glimmer of a future in this world, then everything can be resolved through other means. In other words, aggression equals despair, a dead end, at least minimal harm to the enemy at the cost of everything.
“And no one answered any questions.
And all the words are someone else’s – nothing of my own.
Answer for starters. 🙂
So I have the right to speak.
Otherwise, I will continue.”
Theo, really?) Did you really notice that there are women here?) Or didn’t you notice after all?
I also didn’t notice when I passionately spoke to you about faith and you cut off my inspiration with a statement of fact; I was speaking to you like a woman. But I should have initially talked to you like a man)) Sorry…))
And right now I really want to write that “each of us participates in invisible little battles every day… Overcoming our fears, our grievances, solving problems, growing, and getting better… This is much more important than wars and battles for territory… Because without these little victories that occur daily, it is impossible to win the bigger Game…” I’m writing like a woman again…. I’m focusing on these little things again. Isn’t that right?) You don’t have to answer, because I fear that I’ll try to inspire you again…. Instead of responding to you in a more masculine way….
Well….
Aggression, as a means of protecting oneself and one’s loved ones, is still valid. And by the way, women also display heroism in this regard. I already mentioned the incident from my childhood when I lunged at and started choking a guy who wanted to kill my dog. But at that moment, I wasn’t thinking clearly and was caught up in my emotions; later, I realized that I was harming another person…. According to the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Aggression is not the best way to solve problems and doesn’t improve people or life. And strength is not aggression. Aggression, on the contrary, disperses strength.
“Theo, really?)”
Who are you addressing this to now?
…
Isn’t a woman’s inspiration connected with facts in any way?
Then what’s the point of inspiration if it doesn’t lead to results?
Just to go back and forth with spectrums?
…..Actually, inspiration is needed so that facts can happen later.
…
“You should have initially talked to me like a man)) Sorry…))”
………… 🙂 No, that wasn’t necessary. You just needed to answer the question. 🙂 As it is.
And then I would have replied about what changed and where, for example.
…
And you could have asked if something was unclear.
Actually, when something is unclear, people ask. Don’t they?
…
“Nobody has canceled aggression as a means of protecting oneself and loved ones.”
Really – a bright thought among others.
…
…and about aggression – one should also go read and understand. 🙂
…
And yes – you also didn’t answer a single question. 🙂
Theo, as Ivan Vasilyevich said in a conversation with Yakin, “how can one understand you if you say nothing…”
Aggression (from the Latin aggredere – to attack) is behavior aimed at causing physical or psychological harm, up to the destruction of the object of aggression.
© psychological dictionary
And? What does all this mean?
Here’s the translation to English:
“First of all, a translation from Latin. Have you heard the expression ‘aggressive strategy’ (‘offensive strategy’), ‘defensive strategy’? No? Or for example, ‘the best defense is offense.’ You can’t win in defense. In defense, you can only avoid losing. Not? And then there are phenomena like ‘initiative,’ ‘pressure,’ ‘offensive.’ What advantages do they provide, in what cases?
…
“And? What’s all this about?”
…
“It’s about the fact that none of you understand what aggression is as a phenomenon. There is a principle of aggressive behavior, for example, in Group 7. (I’m not saying this is my principle, contrary to your expectations.) And from the perspective of the Universe, this principle is entirely legitimate on its own. And it has its benefits of application. Everything else is your fears and stereotypes. You preach about them diligently, without understanding the essence of the phenomenon. But at the same time, you use all of the above, for example, in dialogue.
Actually, that’s quite vile. It’s vile to use this right here but tell everyone that it’s bad and leads to a dead end.”
Theo, my father Anubis, did you only see the translation in the definition? But you can’t read the whole definition, can you? Does the word “harm” mean nothing to you? Aggression is a force of destruction; yes, it can be directed positively in terms of defense (aggression against aggression), as I have mentioned. But if there is no attack (desire to cause harm), there is no need to defend oneself. The best battle is the one that never happened. Have you forgotten that our Universe is dual? Why do you only see one side of the coin? And then you impose your opinion on others as if it were the absolute truth. Who do you think you are? If you continue to devalue the answers and the interlocutors, showing disrespect, you’ll be in trouble! Did I express myself clearly? I will speak in your own language. Wishing you a pleasant and beneficial conversation.
Here it is – yours – out in the open. Aggression. 🙂 I did not devalue you here and spoke to you with full respect. But for some reason, you didn’t feel that, and preferred to feel something else. 🙂 —– P.S. If I start to curse, then not here in the comments. But right away, for real, and with consequences. I’m not kidding when I talk about status. 🙂 So I recommend you cool your ardor. 🙂 However, something has already been set in motion after these disputes. 🙂 And for the better. 🙂 Further: * this Universe is not dual. 🙂 * you write about yourself. 🙂 * battle is one of the key concepts of this blog. 🙂 * about 50% of your messages recently started with aggression. 🙂 * as did approximately 50% of Tavita Shauta’s messages, with a much longer time frame, contained aggression. 🙂 This is called ‘hidden aggression’. But while yours is straightforward, Shauta’s is carefully ‘wrapped’ in hopes that it won’t be discovered and will pass. 🙂 * one of the other concepts that has a support channel in this blog through 7 – honesty. * after mastering the nature of aggression, the skill ‘neutralization of aggression’ opens up, it is needed so as not to strangle a boy for an animal, for example. 🙂 Although even without this skill, I have never strangled anyone. Maybe it’s just features. 🙂 * further opens the skill ‘neutralization of external aggression’. * 🙂 I neutralized your aggression several times earlier, since there were more important things. 🙂 And because there was a channel of descent through 7 from you. Quite decent, I might add. That inspiration you talk about. Yes, you are capable of giving it. (But I have my own.) And I found your aggression just insignificant. Preferring more constructive things and directing everything into constructive channels. * earlier, but not now. * now with aggression, you will deal with it yourself. 🙂 ——— * you are not the legislator here and cannot send me away. 🙂 (And I am somewhat surprised that such comments are now allowed. Previously, they were deleted.) * only the blog’s author can send me away here, by right of territory. And I hope if it comes to that, he will let me know that, for example, I am violating something on his territory. * I actually have the right to broadcast. 🙂 By status and otherwise. 🙂 * I suggest you reconsider your attitude toward what is happening. And I suggest – again, peacefully. 🙂
Theo, do you really think that the presence of smileys will change something? I do not limit my aggression and do not restrict myself with ‘statuses’, I am free to behave towards you as you deserve. Disrespect is to get personal, poke, impose one’s position with unprecedented self-importance, I remind you if you have forgotten! I can exclude you from my Universe. Easily! Do you want that? Great that you remembered about the website owner and that you are a guest here. Maybe you will also recall why you came to this site?! Activate your awareness finally, or you are like old ladies from the market fighting over power! This, by the way, is not only addressed to Theo, as some of the older ones seem to have memory problems? Why are you on this site? Can I consider the issue with aggression closed? Or will I once again have to ‘stick someone’s nose’ in it? I hope each of you takes a deep ‘in-breath-out-breath’, remembers why they are here, remembers about awareness, development, intelligence… makes a clean-up in their minds. ‘…Stop. Reset…’ and starts striving for higher ideals!
“I have no desire to answer your questions. It’s not interesting.”
Of course, it’s uninteresting!
…
One has to figure something out.
To acknowledge one’s status and real situation.
…
And also to be accountable for one’s actions. Oh, how uninteresting.
…
And thinking in general is painful.
Here is the translation to English:
“I have no desire to ‘get to the bottom of things.’
I am indifferent to your ‘status and real situation.’
There are no ‘issues’ for which I should ‘answer’ to you.
…far from every call is worth answering.
I am free from you just as you can easily be free from me.
…and if you have a desire to communicate, then try to engage your conversation partner…
to gain something, you have to give something (give a person what they truly need)… and NOT impose what is completely unnecessary.
…You are constantly trying to impose the energy of inverted autism…”
A good question about the growth of strength in the blog. To understand how strength increases, you need to participate directly in its increase. That is, if you want to understand the world and not be a pawn in it but rather a more significant figure, you need to take an active part in its formation. And this applies to any process that interests you. Understanding of the laws comes during their creation. And it is precisely then that we begin to see all the deep processes.
Fear is the main reason for hesitation. I tried a couple of times, but it didn’t work out, or rather, what I achieved wasn’t exactly what I wanted, and I crawled out of it with difficulty. The consequences turned out to be worse than I expected, and the remnants from each attempt… it’s hard to break through alone. In “life,” within the designated framework of the system, it’s somehow more or less manageable; however, in a self-built system, you can’t hold up on your own or don’t know how to navigate it. That’s why fear is still the main reason. And the attempt to find support devolves into human understanding and turns you either into a victim or an enemy. It may be written a bit confusingly, but the point is that it’s not fear of stepping forward that needs to be overcome, but rather your attitude toward the world, yourself, others, and reality that needs to change. And until that happens, those “remnants” of attempts won’t go away, and you’ll just get bogged down in it, closing off your own path.
I am going alone, but my magical school is covering me. Walking this path alone… it might be possible, but the efficiency will be very low, and time is short. I have mentioned this here several times before, but no one asks questions or seems to really want to change anything. My nickname on VKontakte is Max Numen (Orenburg). If you want, we can talk, discuss, and try to find a way out of this difficult situation. I’m always glad to chat.
What does your magical school mean? Or does everyone, likely, have their own school, like their own path? Maybe that’s why no one is asking questions? I would be interested, I don’t have my own school, I just have my own life, and I have no one to ask… Do you have anything besides Vkontakte?
The ‘Melfo’ school, named after a powerful being of the Higher Powers. You might not find information on the internet, you won’t find it.
I would be very interested (it’s exceptionally relevant now) to learn more about protection methods. I don’t quite understand how it works. How to protect oneself from external invasion. I understand that this is somehow related to the internal state, I understand that I always need to be calm, that any irritation opens doors. But maybe there are some other methods. I have read about runic protections, amulets, rings… but either I misunderstand something, or this nastiness is so deeply entrenched within me that it is simply impossible to extract it using such methods. Sometimes it seems to me that this is something both inside and outside. And it is always close by, and I don’t understand how to deal with it. Moreover, this something either truly possesses intelligence or is managed (which is likely) by someone who knows me very well, and I am very tired of this. It feels like a constant draining of life forces, any forces, causing constant physical pain, a haunting of some depressive fog… Well, in general, this is the first question that I would like to analyze and understand very well.
Greetings. I wrote about protections for the general public in accessible language when I was purposefully working on articles. Just on such issues. ‘Theo’s Blog’. Three articles there, all on the first page. With proper understanding – they will help. I will leave the link by name.
I think I understand why no one asks you questions. You simply do not answer them, mysterious soul of the wizard. Everything will be great, you will see; it has already happened, just not manifested to the extent that it becomes visible.
Loneliness is not always a voluntary thing. Building relationships is difficult, and the longer you’re in solitude, the harder it becomes. The system in which you live (whether voluntarily or involuntarily) doesn’t benefit from releasing someone it has grown accustomed to using. It’s much more complicated to break free from established circumstances and to dismantle the circle you’ve found yourself in than it is to build relationships. Moreover, if a person is at least somewhat sane but has lived in a vacuum for a long time, they accumulate so much that it becomes difficult to build anything with them at all; in other words, it requires a tremendous desire to want to communicate and help a partner heal from loneliness. And if in some professional activities or superficial relationships a person still appears reasonable, the sphere that requires revealing internal “cockroaches” is simply off-limits. It seems to me that such individuals are not only numerous but the majority. Even those who are conditionally not alone often lack the opportunity to open up. This might not be very relevant to the topic of loneliness in magic, as it is written in books that a magician cannot have anything that binds them; they must be free. However, honestly, I don’t understand that. Why can’t people build relationships in their own format?
…Because in this world, a deliberately directed system has been built that, frankly speaking, forbids people to build relationships in their own format. And people lack their own strength and consciousness to understand, agree, and fix this.
Here is the translation to English:
“To destroy the ‘enemy,’ there is no need for aggression. What is necessary is the right weapon, the right time, and a Cold Heart. …And the Readiness to Kill… or… the Desire to Cause Pain.”
“Well, read what ‘aggression’ is. Just open Wikipedia and read. It’s not difficult. ))))))))”
Here’s the translation to English:
“Perhaps for one person, Wikipedia contains the only correct answers, while for another, Wikipedia is unnecessary… Have you ever thought about it?
For one person, aggression may be attractive as a form of self-expression, while for another, it is repulsive.
…For example, just the other day, a woman confessed her love to me. I have a good attitude towards her, but such love is extremely repulsive to me. Although in society today, same-sex love is considered normal. And… a few years ago, I would have reacted with aggression, would have gotten rid of her, fired her from work (she is my subordinate). But now – there is no aggression. Everyone has the right to their own feelings.
Just as everyone has the right NOT to answer questions they do not want to answer.”
Last year, I spoke with a hired killer, a military man. I was struck by the fact that he didn’t have a trace of aggression in him. The strength, readiness, and ability to kill anyone right here and now oozed from his entire being. A man who is not afraid of prison, of the asylum, or of a stray bullet. A man who long ago accepted his death as an inevitability. A man free from aggression, from malice, and from hatred. He looks at you… and in that gaze, you read… he knows how to annihilate you in the blink of an eye and leave no trace. It’s just a job that he does best. His sense of freedom evoked admiration, even though I am an entirely different person…
In the context of the discussion about “aggression,” I would like to share a concept I am currently developing. I start from the position that if something exists, then it has a purpose. Recently, I discovered that not only the Tree of Sefirot (both direct and inverted) can serve as a symbolic metamatrix for describing everything in the worlds, but also, for describing more human-centered phenomena, the Structure of the Brain can be effectively used. In this regard, “aggression” and similar phenomena would be located in the brainstem and limbic structures, while, for example, “methodicalness” would be found in the neocortical regions. I even came up with terms: Brainstem Forces, Neocortex Forces, and so on.
Indeed, if anyone has observed from the virtual world, for example, the work of Alastor, there is no visible aggression, but methodicalness is well manifest. This is because these forces are closer to the neocortex. However, the brainstem is just as important as the neocortex! This is the point. The thing is that exploring these areas, which O.O. Spear referred to as areas of atavistic nostalgia, may not be liked by everyone. It’s easier not to study them and to simply declare them “bad,” merely harmful, etc. But they are like Death; even if you don’t want to confront them, you will still have to. You will suppress them and call that development. Alternatively, you might devise methods to avoid them, labeling that as a cleansing of negative emotions, etc. But they exist, and will return as soon as the appropriate context arises! Research (Awareness?) can provide understanding of how this can be used more effectively. Why it is within us.
Maxim, I had an amusing idea this spring called “what if lymph were a person :),” and reading you gives me déjà vu.
“… It’s very important for me to understand who is mine and who is not,
I won’t let strangers into my home and my life,
Within me, water boils, magma burns,
I will protect my loved ones, sweep enemies off my path.
I have a fighter’s spirit, woven from victory,
I will live in spite of… In spite of winds, snows,
Gathering my dear friends in my circle, a protecting circle,
I won’t give away my home, my world, my spirit to strangers.
But only, Lord, you know my strength,
You know my hidden fear deep inside,
Amidst war, amidst the flow of life,
I wouldn’t confuse strangers with my own…”
I also anthropomorphized an appendix and a heart) but I bring this up to point to the proper functioning of organs, what is right and what is not, what is bad and what is good…
That’s right. It stems from the Law of Analogy (“as above, so below…” https://en.enmerkar.com/magic/magiya-analogij). But we need to free ourselves from this as well. But how can we free ourselves from something that hasn’t even been explored or consciously understood in the first place…
By the way, I completely agree with Enmerkar that interaction with diverse individuals contributes to self-discovery, at the very least. For example, here—in the comments of this wonderful blog—everyone is indeed quite different from each other.
As for “transcendental solitude,” it only referred to a fact in the aspect of Monads (https://en.enmerkar.com/magus-way/monady-i-transcendentalnoe-odinochestvo), but we’ve already moved past that.
I’m currently pondering a new article (https://en.enmerkar.com/magus-way/vytesnenie-zameshhenie-i-transformaciya). Perhaps it is indeed possible to create “filters” over atavistic flows, transforming them into constructive products. But as always, what is the criterion for constructiveness? For example, aggressive marketing: it works well for me, but poorly for my competitor, otherwise my competitor will harm me and won’t even consider what we are so passionately discussing here. Of course, one can retreat to caves, but there, too, one will have to compete for food with animals, for instance. There is a saying: do not do to others what you do not want done to you. It’s a decent criterion for the constructiveness of one’s actions, but it’s not very realistic. But a magician really should find a way to transform pride into wisdom. Perhaps to achieve that, one simply needs to become significantly older.
In the context of the discussion about ‘aggression’, it would be good to understand what it means. In psychology, for example, many denote this word to mean any manifestation of activity since activity inevitably destroys the passive environment. In anthropogenesis, it is instinctive defense and attack for survival. In magic, it is, of course, not effective to denote such a large volume of energies with one word. In this myth, there is a division into anger, rage, and aggression. At the same time, rage and aggression are unequivocally destructive.
“unequivocally destructive” if there is something unequivocal – then it is no longer freedom. Nevertheless, a myth is precisely what limits. But there is nothing wrong with limitation if it ultimately brings peace, joy, love.
When there is Power in a person – it is felt. It is felt at the energy level. Words are unnecessary – perception is enough. _ When a person does not have Power, but really wants to believe that they do, the person starts to talk a lot about their powers and statuses, about their virtues and advantages. _ But no words can add Power to a person that they do not have.
