Psyclopean - Ex Oblivione - Immersive Lovecraftian dark ambient dungeon synth
Ex Oblivione is the 15th album from Psyclopean. Based upon the H.P. Lovecraft short story of the same name, Ex Oblivione draws upon the mystical elements of 70's prog and folk-psych while maintaining its appeal to fans of dark ambient and dungeon synth. This is a story made into music and sound. For those looking for an immersive trippy movie for your mind, welcome to oblivion. As always, it is highly recommended the listener experiences the album with quality headphones and a darkened room.
"There is nothing better than oblivion, since in oblivion there is no wish unfulfilled." - Lovecraft

The Treatise On Resurrection - Gnostic Text of the Nag Hammadi audio boo...
The Treatise On Resurrection - Gnostic Text of the Nag Hammadi audio book with text. The Treatise on the Resurrection is an ancient Gnostic Christian text which was found at Nag Hammadi, Egypt. It is also sometimes referred to as "The Letter to Rheginos" because it is a letter responding to questions about the resurrection posed by Rheginos, of whom little is known. The main message of the treatise is that Christians should consider themselves already resurrected in a spiritual sense and that the resurrection is real, not just a metaphor. It asserts that Jesus "lived as flesh" and was "both human and divine." In my opinion, this is very similar to any number of works in Eastern/Hindu mysticism. Here, the resurrection is directly comparable to Self-realization, Enlightenment, Self-knowledge, etc. We also see the idea that the world is illusion or Maya, among other motifs.

Tao Te Ching - Lao Tzu - full audio book w/ text read for meditation and sleep
Tao Te Ching - Lao Tzu - full audio book w/ text read for meditation and sleeping - Eastern Philosophy. is a Chinese classic text traditionally credited to the 6th-century BC sage Laozi. The text's authorship, date of composition and date of compilation are debated. The oldest excavated portion dates back to the late 4th century BC, but modern scholarship dates other parts of the text as having been written—or at least compiled—later than the earliest portions of the Zhuangzi. The Tao Te Ching, along with the Zhuangzi, is a fundamental text for both philosophical and religious Taoism. It also strongly influenced other schools of Chinese philosophy and religion, including Legalism, Confucianism, and Buddhism, which was largely interpreted through the use of Taoist words and concepts when it was originally introduced to China. Many artists, including poets, painters, calligraphers, and gardeners, have used the Tao Te Ching as a source of inspiration. Its influence has spread widely outside East Asia and it is among the most translated works in world literature. Get the Tao Te Ching at https://amzn.to/2XIu0oC .

My role as GOD BUTCHER
Often, when working on integrating the shadow in one's personal self work, it becomes important to grant the darkness within a space to be heard and acknowledged. Sometimes that's all it wants or needs - to have a voice. My hats off to the Russian Comic Book Geek for inviting me and allowing me the opportunity to give my own darkness a voice as GORR THE GOD BUTCHER!
05. Matt Schmitz | The Mystical Adventure
What is the role of our human incarnation? What is the truth of our Self? What are some obstacles along the path of self discovery? How can we become more of who we are?
I love talking to Matt Schmitz! He embodies such an openness to where he is on his path that is inspiring. He's an eclectic human being who explores his creativity through music, mystical audiobook readings & his own writing. One thing is clear to me, Matt is an explorer of the outer edges of thought and experience.
He joins us today to muse about so much: from magic to UFOs & non-human entities, from non-duality to the multiplicity in the expression of consciousness, from Gnosticism to Alchemy, from God to Self, we leave no stone unturned! Put on your philosopher's cap and jump in the train as we depart to the realms of the mystical!

The Gospel Of Thomas - Gnostic sayings of Jesus in the Nag Hammadi
The Gospel Of Thomas - Gnostic sayings of Jesus in the Nag Hammadi - full audiobook with music. The Gospel of Thomas (also known as the Coptic Gospel of Thomas) is a non-canonical sayings gospel. It was discovered near Nag Hammadi, Egypt, in December 1945 among a group of books known as the Nag Hammadi library. Scholars speculate that the works were buried in response to a letter from Bishop Athanasius declaring a strict canon of Christian scripture. The Gospel of Thomas is very different in tone and structure from other New Testament apocrypha and the four Canonical Gospels. Unlike the canonical Gospels, it is not a narrative account of the life of Jesus; instead, it consists of sayings attributed to Jesus, sometimes stand-alone, sometimes embedded in short dialogues or parables.

Active Imagination And Its Role In Magick
“The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity... and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself.”
― William Blake
Of all the principles of magick, when one casts aside the formalities of ritual and ceremony, fashion and accessories, at the heart of its function and successful working is active imagination and/or visualization. While these two terms share attributes and can be interchanged to some degree, they work cooperatively to produce the results of "real" magick. One might picture active imagination as a train and visualization as the track upon which it travels. C. S. Lewis described active imagination as "the organ of meaning" and considered it a conscious method of experimentation. It employs creative imagination as an organ for "perceiving outside your own mental boxes." Any practitioner worth his salt understands that magick's roots are founded in this experimentation and serve as the basis for the scientific method. This kind of imagination, however, is different from the everyday creative brand of thinking.
Many prominent philosophers and thinkers have pointed out this distinction between "imagined" and "imaginary", with the imagined being of a spiritual quality and the imaginary being connected to and arising from the sensory realm. Henry Corbin called it imaginatio vera, the imagination that transcends mere fantasy. The poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge also made clear a distinction between the fantasy-type imagination in which dwells the creativity of artistic endeavor and the imaginal realm where "imagination is the condition for participation in a sacramental universe". Rudolf Steiner saw that active imagination could be developed as a path to greater spiritual experience, resulting in direct contact with the archetypal realm. However, it can be through the meditative flow state of artistic endeavors, that one can access the active or higher imagination. My opinion is that most people associate imagination only with this artistic side and at times allow their active role in it to be co-opted by external sources. Too often, the active imagination or the imaginal realm is stifled and replaced by shallow impostors of creativity such as the influx of mass produced entertainment media posing as real art and attempting to coerce one into a passive role, drooling with mouth agape. They end up being programmed with socially engineered archetypes and mythologies, weaponized for someone else's agenda.
One might recall, at some moment in life, hearing a person say, "So-and-so has an active imagination". Many times this is stated from an authority figure of sorts, such as a parent or teacher for example, and is usually (but not always) in regard to a child. This phrase, as heard or said, is a misconception of real active imagination and at its core is meant as derogatory. What is meant by the person stating this phrase is that the child has a disposition for fantasy by either lying or proposing things that have no foundation in truth or fact - things that are imaginary (as opposed to imagined), or make-believe (which I think is a most interesting term that should be given some consideration in one's accepting of a paradigm). The attributes of the imagination are generally considered disadvantageous and unfavorable for the individual to survive or succeed in a banausic world. When referred to in this way, "mechanical imagination" is a proper label one might put on it. That is not to say it has no positive function whatsoever, but helps create a clearer line in distinguishing the difference from the higher practice of active imagination.
The imaginal realm is humankind's umbilical cord to the godhead, one's lifeline to the pleroma. Instead of fostering the role of active imagination, it is knocked from its influential pedestal in the prime of youth and imposed upon by agents heralding the plastic manufactured matrix aspect of consensus reality. What might be seen as harmless and sometimes well-intentioned by these agents forever shackles the imagination to the black iron prison of dry intellect, debilitating the chance to experience the pleroma or the totality of spiritual understanding here on earth. The active imagination is pounded into subservience throughout life - whether by institutional education, mainstream entertainment, or orthodox religion - and thus its reclamation and engagement should be striven for by magickal, spiritual, and occult practitioners of every kind. And most of all by seekers of Truth as an aid to discernment. Perhaps, instead of artificial intelligence, active imagination should be the new "A.I." as it would serve to establish a more meaningful and tangible heaven on earth for real human beings, void of the consuming impulse and yet pregnant with the methodology of dreaming to create.
Carl Jung developed a technique in the early 1900's where the primary function of active imagination serves as a meditation wherein the contents of one's unconscious are translated into images, narrative or personified as separate entities and can serve as a bridge between the conscious "ego" and the unconscious. This helped to popularize active imagination within psychoanalytical circles up through our modern time. However, when trying to rationalize the conscious and unconscious parts of the Self, the result is unclear. One must take into consideration the source of conscious, present thought as well as consider how the unconscious mind is fed by the conscious mind. There is an occult interplay between the two, similar to the Ourobouros symbolism of the coiled snake eating its tail. The result is paradoxical. This is the paradox experienced while contemplating and attempting to practice magical thinking, the ensuing of cognitive dissonance. The cognitive dissonance field is a fragile position to maintain as the mind has a tendency to sway and give preference in light of an explanation for the existence of the paradox. The mind will try to rationalize and embrace one of the held concepts over the other as it aligns with the individual's world view and ideals. But, by being able to hold each contradictory space equally, a sort of energy is generated. In speaking of this "energy", George E. Trippe states in a 1999 thesis about Jung's techniques of active imagination and Christian religious experience that, "For Jung, this energy is the transcendent function, which emerges of its own out of the courageous work of honouring the reality of two opposing points of view. In Jung's process, the individual holds the two in relationship, rather than giving in to one over the other. Out of this holding process, which is like a crucifixion, a third thing will emerge, which both honours and yet transcends the two." This "third" thing that emerges is the energetic field of cognitive dissonance and magickal thinking. Some people might feel this as being uncomfortable or unpleasant but this is the rational mind trying to fight for its dominion among competing world views.
It is my opinion that this might be the actual thing considered "magick" as this energy merges with external fields of consciousness. One force does not give way to the other, but rather a compromise of position in forming the overall consensus of a perpetual reality. Nothing is subtracted, but instead added to in an amalgamation of desired outcomes. Think of a lava lamp, of how oil blobs move about in water and when heated, the oil connects and develops other forms and larger blobs. Nothing in terms of the oil is lost, only changed in visual structure and flow in the water environment. The heat, in this metaphor, is the energy generated through the processes of visualization, active imagination, and magickal thinking that allows one's deeper intentions to emerge from the Self into the external world, or from the subconscious into the conscious mind. While Jung's application of active imagination is primarily used for therapeutic purposes, I think of it as the underlying foundation of magickal practice, regardless of what system of magick one uses.
It should be evident at this point that active imagination is not something that just simply happens in the course of everyday existence as one must consent to enter into it, just as one chooses to practice magick. But when one is engaged directly in the occurrence of the process, it is vital not to exert one's influence or will to the outcome of the visualization itself. It must be left to develop independently but that does not mean to be indifferent. As Jung stated, "You yourself must enter into the process with your personal reactions: ... as if the drama being enacted before your eyes were real". From my own personal experience, this state is similar to daydreaming but goes much deeper and becomes almost akin to a hyper-sensitive virtual reality type of interplay. One might know the feeling of this in the state of hypnogogia, which is the period between sleep and wakefulness, where one might experience exaggerated sounds and situations in a purely reactionary way. And to make clear, one still initiates active imagination with their intent and with a goal in mind, but the resulting visuals must be left to develop on their own, communicating through imagery and symbolism, with their own timeline and narrative.
It should be stated that, while similar to such New Age practices as the Law of Attraction, the Secret, or the general concept of manifesting what one wants, the true art of active imagination goes further in that it does not cause conflict with the Will of another person, and does not interfere with the lives of others. Whereas something like the Law of Attraction is based on materialism and usually requires third-party actors and circumstances for one's desire to become aligned with reality, active imagination coexists in a harmonious sphere that grants the practitioner the deserved and righteous outcome in one's relation to the higher Self. Again, one is directed to my earlier metaphor of the lava lamp and its active function. The imaginal realm does not come into opposition with the nature of the soul by granting frivolous favors of wealth or objects, but in fact will generate such things by proxy if needed for the individual's higher purpose or spiritual path. It is thus important when entering into active imagination, and when used in a magickal context, that the intention of the individual be of an enlightened nature, free from selfish wants. Because of the dualistic influence in which our world seems to function, materialistic goals will generally carry a karmic price in order to balance the universe's gift-giving. "An eye for an eye" is applicable whether or not the act is for negative or positive intentions, and the price paid is usually not what the individual expects or wants.
The soul, the spirit, the higher Self, the unconscious psyche - all desire the same connection with the conscious ego just as we strive for the connection to the divine. It is an ages old endeavor to seek that which mediates equivocally between both sides and allows a passage for unification. The imaginal realm is the "non-spatial fabric" in Sufism that connects the mundane to the spiritual. The alchemist, in his efforts to burn off psychological impurities, seeks to transmute the idea of Self into the One thing, practically and tangibly. The active imagination serves to facilitate this alchemical wedding as a catalyst and mediator, translator and diplomat. It is the contemplative state of meditation in Eastern mysticism, allowing for uninhibited perception of that which inherently exists around and within us. And it is the sacred space, the liminal space of ritual, through which magick enters the world and is allowed to court our circumstance and dance with our destiny.

Composed in the middle of the 14th century BC, it is attributed to the 18th dynasty Pharaoh Akhenaten, who radically changed traditional forms of Egyptian religion by replacing them with Atenism.

AGM Satsang #4 - Shhh! I'm Hunting Wabbits
Shhh! I'm Hunting Wabbits
History has taught us that mankind began simply in his relationship to the natural world. This is not to discount evidence or accounts of earlier more advanced appearances of civilization, but rather to introduce how we generally see reality. Reality for early man was comprised of symbolism and mysterious unseen gods. As he became more cognizant, the mythologies and cosmologies of the world began to take shape. These views and explanations for the events and environment unfolded themselves into a fixed perception for a certain length of time. Endless years marched along, as paradigms arose and fell, beliefs were tested and failed, and language and writing developed in an attempt to contain the increasing complexity of the world. Symbolism became more complex, language became more nuanced and intricate, and man's relationships expanded beyond the external natural cycles to include a sense of self in relation to the idea of self and those of the community. Reality seemed to open doors to the ever-inquiring being, granting perpetual explanations for anything and everything so long as questions were asked and the seekers kept seeking. The answers were documented, stored away, passed on, in the cumulative warehouse of the human mind. But like any liar who lies compulsively about each and every thing, the lies eventually need further lies so that the previous ones might be justified. And in turn, contradictions emerge, and correlations form as reality develops its narrative from the simple self-contained beginnings when it could seemingly relax its guard. But reality was constantly challenged by philosophy, science, and religion and the state of our perceptions needed attending to, much like an assembly line that intermittently accelerates its output as the workers strive to keep up and maintain the output before it comes crashing down into a heaping mess. Reality was forced into a progressive expansion, always needing to account for this or that, where previously only a facade was required. It kept maneuvering in step with humanity's forward dance, eventually leading man into the ourobouros of semantics and synchronicity, pulling the curtain or veil for a mere peek only when it was required, and only then to a lucky few.
In the past few decades it seems as if the reality program decided to open the floodgates for narrative-driven perception. In turn, this appears to have led a majority of the population into a sort of truth-fractal neurosis. The internet went mainstream during this time, providing truth seekers endless nodes on the network to plumb for tidbits of information. This was done perhaps because too many inconsistencies were accumulating and people were finally opening their eyes to previously unknown details. Those digging into uncharted territories were met with all kinds of new and novel information as the program rapidly moved to accommodate the influx of "conspiracy theorists". This then created a seemingly endless chain of white rabbit "truths" which were to be found in the also seemingly endless rabbit holes available to explore. It appeared the system also adopted and integrated a type of retro-causal firmware, allowing it to manipulate perceptions of the past and repair possible gaps with information connectivity. We cannot truthfully say that all this happened in such a way as it would constitute a belief, but it works out in the process of active imagination which itself is used to gain insights into complex problems and is especially useful when it comes to matters of an esoteric nature. Let us consider, though, the post-truth era we have been swimming in. Non-stop contradictory news articles, fake news altogether, massive amounts of information being published - a majority of which is totally constructed by an artificially intelligent algorithm that consumes user provided personal data through social media and data collected by corporations. It's happening right now, at this very second. Every word spoken, every photo posted. All this is used to engineer a virtual world bank of comparative truths and facts. The individual has at their fingertips every possible proof of anything they wish to believe. This is the post-truth era we have been living in the past couple decades. And yet where does it all lead? You venture down the rabbit holes, which connect to other rabbit holes, and soon your mind is lost swirling in the chaos of what is true and what is believable. So many, in their desperation to be found again, slit their wrists with Occam's razor, just so they no longer have to think for themselves. Or in complete frustration and cognitive dissonance, jaded by the perpetual deconstruction of paradigms, they join a spiritually-challenged cult so they can be handed a weaponized worldview topped with a creamy helping of salvation, all on a silver platter of promises. We've grown morbidly obese on the so-called "facts" being spoon fed to us by the media and in our news feeds. This is the post-truth era at its peak, A time when every truth exists, but not a single one can be found or embraced.
But then a divergent few poke their heads above the ocean waves of shit. Tired of semantically crafted arguments, tired of trying to convince family and friends of the things they know to be happening in the world, the last few wasted breaths falling upon deaf ears. Tired of talking about the latest sports or celebrity scandal. Tired of being told what is and what is not by every single soulless faction and group who plant their flags on the backs of others. Tired of just not being able to find something real and authentic.
And that is when it happens.
We finally abandon the rabbit holes, leave them empty as they were, devoid of substance. None of those things ever really changed our lives in the end. Only locked our minds into cages. The post-truth era is on its way out. Its had its day in the sun. Rabbit season is over. Leave the remaining hangers-on to their fundamentalist Christian New World Order conspiracies, leave the ascended starseed LARPs to play out their frequency drama, dissipating one higher vibration at a time. Leave them all behind and break out into the new day. We are heralding the post-conspiracy era, where we've looked at and researched every tangent, seeking out that one thing that we could show the world and everything would change. But now we know that it won't. Each and every true individual is a new god with the ability to forge and discover their real self in the shadow of the alchemical firelight. In the post-conspiracy era, we seek the truth and the nature of the inner self, not by some fairy tale process supposedly encoded in a science fiction book or by handing over membership fees to access the latest new age lesson from a narcissistic blue bird guru. We seek because that is our nature, and through genuine self-inquiry, we come to understanding and knowing. We need no savior but ourselves.
Michael Tsarion has coined a phrase which has stuck with me for several years. and that is "Conspiracy work is Spiritual work". All the truth seeker conspiracy theorists, if they are sincere and work to question everything, if they push at breaking down the dictated narratives, if they've set fire to every rabbit hole, then inevitably they will find themselves looking for truth on the inward path to self-realization. They will achieve a true higher mind, and they will know even then, not to stop seeking or to be complacent with any supposed truth outside of the self. No longer can one be affected by the fear pornography or fall victim to simple belief. No longer can one ever be a follower again. Conspiracy research will lead you to the greatest scam of them all - that the greatest treasure you could ever hope to find is locked and hidden within you. There's no need to wonder how to begin on the path, because you need not go anywhere or do anything specific. If you are a true human being on this inverted quest, it will happen naturally because the Divine and the Self are one in the same, and they long to unite. You hold the keys in this time of transition, and through art, imagination, and creativity the inner door will open homeward. The real you is the artist, adept and skillful in techniques of discernment, and your life should be a masterpiece.
I will leave you with a quote about this responsibility from Terence Mckenna:
“The artist’s task is to save the soul of mankind; and anything less is a dithering while Rome burns. Because of the artists, who are self-selected, for being able to journey into the Other, if the artists cannot find the way, then the way cannot be found.”

Emerald Tablets Of Thoth The Atlantean - Campfire Ambient Dark Screen
In 1938 M. Doreal published this popular channeled book which borrows heavily from the fiction of H.P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, and others.

It should not be confused with the actual Emerald Tablet of Hermes which has legitimate documented historical precedence - you can check out my version at https://youtu.be/nFQasUNZ0BE

AGM Satsang #3 - DEBUGGING REALITY, ENCOUNTERING FIREWALLS, AND CREATING AN EXIT STRATEGY
Welcome to the Altrusian Grace Media satsang. Satsang is drawn from the Sanskrit words sat (which is “being,” “essence,” or “reality”) and sanga ( which is “association”). While satsang is commonly ascribed to sitting with a guru or spiritual leader, one will find neither here and no one will claim to be. In the AGM satsang it is all about introducing ideas through discourse with true people, or merely to be in the company of true people, particularly those who are seekers on a spiritual path. The aim is not to provide answers, but to stoke the fire of inquisitiveness within each true person to find the essence of Truth within themselves. Those who stay, are invited to participate and share their ideas, speculate on possibilities, and enrich their own process of active imagination.
DEBUGGING REALITY, ENCOUNTERING FIREWALLS, AND CREATING AN EXIT STRATEGY
As children, we are raised with the notion of magic. A particular relationship centered around magic is instilled through various sources such as movies and books, and we grow up believing in a certain non-belief. The traditional and historical sources or ideas of "real" magic are conveniently supplanted with the fairy-tale notion of it: That magic is all pointy hats and unicorns and fancy special effects generated in a Hollywood movie studio. This way the population can be exposed to real magic on a continual basis and then readily dismiss the actuality of such a thing existing. Of course, much more goes into the molding of young minds through entertainment and education, but magic is a subject that is handled in a very specific seemingly light-hearted way, easily dismissed by a wave of the wand and a Disney song. The product of such indoctrination are the gatekeepers of mundane institutional rationalism, slowly rising to power in the late 1700s, and now virtually a standing army equipped with Newtonian physics and materialist dogma at the ready. But those of us, who on late summer evenings as a warm wind plays across the face, are inclined to notice the subtle twinge of energy that courses along our limbs, makes them ache and energized at the same time - we know differently. And we are untouched in our private lives by the aforementioned rabble of stingy naysayers, heeding to that soft and dark feeling that enters our minds like a thief in the blackest night, nodding in our direction as we watch from the shadows, letting us know that he knows we know. That is the pinnacle of the sensation of real magick. Where just one thought can click into place like a key in a lock, and the imagination swings wide its gates onto a flowing river of possibility, just waiting for us to cast our nets or hoist our sails. Of course these waters glow with a dim and brooding murkiness and are not without perils or predators. And one must always take heed of such things lest he be devoured by that dragon lurking still in the depths. Speaking of beasts, All opinions of the man aside, it is Aliester Crowley who I think gave the most precise definition of magic, which is: "the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will". The science, being the methodology employed, and the art, being the active imagination coming to flower through said methodology. These are the tools and tactics used to unlock the liminal spaces through which we pass, thus gaining a glimpse of the ethereal machinery pumping away behind the veil. This is akin to a programmer utilizing a debug mode within a computer game for example. When debug mode is active, the programmer has access to numerous parameters and functions and are of particular interest to video game players as they can be used to cheat, access unused content, or change the game configuration beyond what is normally allowed. This runs parallel with the ideological function of Crowley's definition of magic. It is through magic that we might experiment with how the world interacts with us according to our desires, as opposed to how we interact with the world, which is normally haphazardly, blindly, and chaotically regardless of how structured we might build our lives. When looked at from this perspective, we can confidently take magick off the table as relating to any sort of real spiritual endeavor, not that it doesn't hold any value for the practitioner and his worldly life, but that spiritual pursuits are entwined with the true inner self and the pleroma, or realm of the all-encompassing and endless void, the space wherein resides the All.
Acknowledging this, let us now explore further, quoting Wikipedia, "Compared to the normal user interfaces, debug menus usually are unpolished and not user-friendly, intended only to be used by the software's developers. They are often cryptic and may allow for destructive actions such as erasing data without warning." Incorporating this into a magical context, this gives the impression that the realm behind the veil is primarily accessed by those who have developed or created our world and allows for shifting of not only physical events, but even more so consciousness itself. By metaphorically sliding the knobs up or down, one person (or many for that matter) might experience an "awakening" of sorts, albeit this would imply an artificially expanded consciousness. While this might be seen as advantageous to beings cultivated as organic portals, it has negative implications and muddies the waters for true humans, making it more difficult to wade through the mire and eventually, hopefully, realizing the conceptual simplicity of the end goal of escaping the prison we find ourselves in. This artificial expanded consciousness also opens the flood gates for impostors and charlatans posing as teachers in a profaned offering of spiritual guidance or advice. Having downloaded their marching orders in the form of entity communication, vivid dreams, or otherwise they set upon the gullible as agents of disinformation. They vampirize sacred knowledge and apply it to what I call "conspiragossip" - that is, they engage with the latest Illuminati celebrity death, speak of obscure, intangible and unreachable goals like "ascension" or "raising vibration to reach a 5D density". Many of them also offer dualistic alternatives to existing paradigms - exchanging extraterrestrials for intraterrestrials, indigo children for starseeds, Pleadians for Arcturians, Freemasons for Jesuits, New World Order for the Cabal, and so on and so forth. They offer no value beyond sensationalism and the semantics of unsustainable belief systems. Many of them are able to talk a good game, using esoteric buzzwords and circular contradictory speech. An excellent way to discern some of these attributes is to take one of their monologues and transcribe it into written form and read it instead of listening to it. If it fails on paper, or the actual text gives way to confusion or seems fluffy or unrealistic, then usually one should should take these words out with the trash. There is no actual truth coming from their mouths and it gets the true human nowhere in attaining or furthering their spiritual goals. These agents almost always unwittingly serve as distractions to a true path, roping in one follower after another into either a frenzied horde of narrative pushers or a subdued cult of fake overbearing sickening love and light mongers. What is amusing is that so many of these impostors can't even articulate full sentences, let alone actually have an original thought. Ask yourself, or better yet, ask them what is their end goal? Is it just to feel or appear more spiritual and special? Is it practically attainable? Could this be some deep down desire to feel more important than the static role dictated to them as organic portals? And where once they flourished at conventions and in congregations at the dawn of the New Age movement, they now attempt to wax poetic and populate YouTube livestreams and channels. I would also argue that while they are more easily exposed as frauds, the spiritually deficient masses are even more eager to lap up their nonsensical verbal excrement, preferring to be told what to think and believe rather than venture down the road of self exploration and self inquiry. These organic portals are but merely actors given that same glimpse of the debugging menu as the dedicated magicians who work hard at accessing it. And even the best of them remained stuck here on this prison planet. But that's really all that it is - what lies behind the veil is a compartmentalized view with the ability to push a few buttons and play with some of the parameters and nothing more.
Magic is not a way out or a solution to finding Truth. Divination through tarot card readings are a bit different as this does not generally interact with the debugging menu or the external veil. However, they can only be used rightfully by an individual as a tool and medium for self-inquiry. A reading cannot be accurately applied to another being as the cards act as a personal method of reflective thought. To clarify this idea, one can imagine playing a game of squash alone, the ball being the person's question and the court walls being the deck of tarot cards. Another analogy might be an artist or painter whose inquiries take the form of paint and brush. The cards are like the empty canvas awaiting colors and forms to appear. Through these elements, the art of one's life can be more easily visualized. Self-inquiry through divination and whatever form that takes, is not without its misguidance and misuse. It cannot and should not be used to determine the future or make decisions. It exists by assisting one's insight into the self, to help alleviate or un-obscure the internal veils. According to mystics of Eastern theology, specifically the Rishis of ancient Hinduism and the Vedantic philosophy, there are what is know as the five koshas. These act as sheaths, or more appropriately for our purpose, "veils". Just as there exists the external veils where magickal acts congeal, these are types of abstract membranes which hide the Atma, or the true self, of the individual. Just to give a reference, the koshas, from most apparent to most subtle, consist of the "food sheath", "energy sheath", "mind sheath", "discernment sheath", and "bliss sheath", beyond which is Atma. Within each of these veils, the individual may find himself stuck or attached, often over-identifying with one or more kosha. In the case of divination, it can sometimes be helpful in ascertaining one's position amidst the koshas but ultimately depends on the integrity of the individual to recognize or surpass them.
What then can be said of astrology? Authentic learned astrologers are only able to read the instruction booklet, and even then this only holds water based on one's current difficulty settings. They can, in a way, let one know what the parameters are currently set at in the debugging menu. Concerning this though, I think only organic portals are truly drawn to astrology and put their belief and reliance upon it, for an individual who has come to know Atma will realize their life path is open and that they have the ability to forge a new and unique path outside of any predetermined destiny set in the stars and they will not suffer for it. Organic portals gravitate to wanting to know the plan someone else has already laid out for them in order to assure themselves of their role and place within the collective. They are looking to reaffirm their duties within the hive mind, and will quickly submit to what is essentially their orders from above.
The Rulers would not grant one the ability dive into the full program with the chance someone pulling the plug on their little reincarnation scheme, and they even limit the ability to play with the personal settings in debug mode, riddling the network with firewalls. The barriers are comprised of those authoritarian figures who, so rigid and stern in their belief systems, desire nothing more than to put a leash around your neck. And peddlers of conspiragossip who might play a dating advice wannabe beauty queen by day and a self-proclaimed ascended researcher by night are ready to welcome you into their similar ascended club of sheeple and relieve you of the trouble of having to do any research for yourself. How loving and generous of them. And of course "whistleblowers" who are overburdened with ego and self importance, actually telling you to "do your own research" as a tactic of deceit (instead of being genuine), thinking that by speaking those words, it validates their claims and validates their character because most people who hear that will lazily accept that the "whistleblower" who tells you to do your own research would only say that if he really was telling you the truth. How convenient, right? So many of these bait and switch actors do a 180 from a previous belief system yet they still troll the full circle. But really, these characters exist only to test the integrity of the truth-seeker warrior, or attempt to stop his momentum of developing self-realization, discernment, and progress into Gnosis, thus embodying the primary function of an archonic firewall. Firewalls are put up to prevent the unwanted, unwashed, uninitiated, and uninformed from exploring these privileges. In this context the manipulators, our captors, view us as not only cattle, but as a virus. As a rule of thumb, viruses must not get past the network's security measures. Despite my growing inclination to stop relying on movies and entertainment as a source of Truth information, I have to once again recall The Matrix movie and the statements made by Agent Smith to draw comparison to how relevant this is:
"I'd like to share a revelation during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague, and we are the cure."
This is how true humans are viewed by the system and we are the burden to them as they are tasked to keep us locked up, and they writhe and twist with resentment. This is why we, as only a mere fraction of the species of earth, are given special attention. Albeit, this is attention we don't necessarily want - not from the Rulers and definitely not from their anti-virus software.
If true humans are seen as the virus, the anti-virus exists to force us into survival mode as much as possible. Whether it be the ultimate birth of tragedy coming to a head in your life, with sickness and death seemingly all around you, or even down to being fired from your job or plain and simple bad luck - these things keep you in survival mode. And while one is in survival mode, one cares only for physical self preservation and has no time or energy to address sincere spiritual needs. If you can't address those spiritual needs and concerns, then most likely you're headed for the revolving reincarnation door, forever to remain that prisoner always on the verge of rehabilitation, but never quite convincing enough to the parole board. You won't even be granted a peek behind the curtain. And every single magick trick you might know is left in the gutter if you don't know where your next meal is coming from, or where you'll sleep at night, or if addiction decides that it's running the show. Just know that if you want to debug reality, if that is the endeavor you choose, then you first must be still in your life so as not to attract unwanted attention. Second, is that by only adjusting the allotted parameters within the debugging menu, you must know that you cannot reach contentment, cannot reach a state of enlightenment, and ultimately you won't have an exit strategy when your time comes.
The Rulers are embodied through ignorance and intolerance, through addiction and distraction, and through both mediocrity and sensationalism. As we move from the post-truth age into the post-conspiracy era, our task as the new breed of heretics is not to take up a stance of opposition or to be against one thing or another, but to surpass those things. Grip tight to the rope handed down by those further on the path and tow the line for the others behind you. In our current predicament, it is imperative that we do this for the sake of our own salvation. The way IN remains the only way OUT.
