We are creatures exceptional in our design. We are the unification of the Mind, the Body and the Soul. Three utterly different forms of energy bound together to create life. Each state of energy functions by it's own rules, independent yet reliant upon each other. We have the power through training and focus to use the energy of the soul to effect change on the physical or mental/temporal world. This can be done by understanding the laws that govern creation. By understanding the functions of the energy around us and by learning to affect the balance of probabilities that we percieve as reality. We live in a highly materialistic and capitalistic civilization that walks with confidence upon a heap of empty promises and blinds itself with it's own unrecognized reflection. It will benefit greatly by the balance created by those seeking a magickal path. The true test comes when you are forced by others or by self-realization to realize that the belief system you have so long held to be fact and law, may not be.You are not simply what life has made you but what life has shown you to be. This is by no means a delicate task, for you must approach each day and each obstacle with eyes wide open, encompassing all that lies before you, and yet you can never fall prey to the delirious allure of all that you touch and see. I have done so many times, I know. There is far more that I wish to say regarding the baser manipulation of metaphysical energy, and rest assured it will soon follow linked to this and other pages, but for now take heart in the knowledge of this first paradox of power: Pursuit of strength will be found in your weakness. |
