Bornless Ritual effects?

"What makes silence a "supreme practice"? What is the benefit of being silent?"
In my practice I have seen so many people who avoid silence at all cost.
They always have the radio on, or the tv.
They never sit still, they are constantly working
even when they sleep they are not still.Being silent in my expierence is not so much as not talking (though that is an important aspect) as stillness.
Sound is vibration, waves, movement.
when we stop, and be still and quiet
our molecules our inner being slows down
and thats when thoughts, and feeling and ideas
can bring about change
but if we are constatnly talking, and working, and doing
and not allowing ourselves moments of silence
we may never achieve, actualize, transformIn these days our culture is ruled by left hemispere actions
(whihc is why so many people are right handed.
children are naturaly bihemispheric
and play becuase they are allowing thier right hemisphere to manifest.Children ARE our teachers
for those who want to learn how to play:) -

"Vlad, Veronica, theSilent1,
Veronica, I found much insight in what you wrote. I am deeply embarassed about how I expressed myself before. Thank you Vlad for resurrecting this thread so that I may recall my unfortunate choice of words, I am forever in your debt.
I regret writing that and everything else on that thread. I was the one writing the stupidest things on this board. Children are the greatest teachers and silence is the greatest virtue. I was stupid and ignorant for not realizing these things and posting without thinking.
I was wrong for not recognizing the ridiculousness of my responses and the timeless irrefutable wisdom you were so generously offering. Sometimes my individuality and will get the best of me.
I do not recognize great masters because of my own shortcomings. 
I am sorry.
I bow before your superior knowledge and admit the inferiority of my views.
Again I apologize.
I will think before posting and I will never question your comments again.
Again, children ARE our teachers and those who teach not are the best teachers.NAMASTE!

No need to be embarrassed around me, and please DO question everything I say.
I personaly do not like homoginization:)I have worked with childrne for a very long time,
and while I am in the role of teacher
I learn so much from little ones.
very humbling indeed.But, little ones do not usually like silence, or being still.
They are growing, so it goes against thier nature to be still and quiet.I tell my little ones that we grow in the dark
when we are asleep and stillI think this age will have many of us

No worry's my friend, If you are practicing Magick then you are bound to (at some point or another) be a jerk. In fact, Crowley spent most of his lifetime making an ass out of himself.

Yeah, I don't like homoginization either.
(even less homogenization).About teachers that don't teach, I'm not talking about this in terms of not speaking, but in terms that silence itself brings the right conclusion.

This being from : ThIShARB, Liber Viae Memoriae - "Let then the Adept who finds the result of these meditations unsatisfactory refuse the Oath of the Abyss, and live so that his Karma gains strength and direction suitable to the task at some future period." .......... If you study Crowley's Libri most of his rites will advise somewhat of the same as in the above advice given about the Goetia. Not to say that you shouldn't pick it back up, &/or continue as you are as the case may b. The ? I presume is that u have to decide if u are able to handle the "Sleeping Dogs"?

I think no w/smoking weed; however, I do aggree that the physical/mental/spiritual effects of this rite are quite extraordinary as w/all rites of this sort. 1 still has 2 b careful w/fire though!!!

I was trying to show a principal here w/what I was saying w/out it b/ing. to far out of context from a different rite. Sorry.

"I always find that those who implore others to be silent are either trying to make themselves look interesting by pretending they know something others don't, have nothing of value to add to any conversation, or are affiliated with a crack pot religious group that has asked them to be "silent" to make themselves appear "important" and "mysterious."
By encouraging those with something of value to practice the "supreme practice of silence" you seek to control the flow of information to those who seek it and deny the ability Teach by those who may have the Need to.
I was reading through this message board this morning and found other conversations which you stifled with a suggestion of "be silent." You are a true agent of the KAL, a malevolent force of misdirection arising amongst mankind to steer truthseekers to the mire. What is your real agenda here?
To everyone reading, there is nothing of value in being silent. The only way you can truly understand something is by explaining it to others in your own words. Those who suggest others be silent are only interested in propping up whatever insignificant religious cult they belong to.
"You have just proven, my friend, the value of silence.
But fear not: error recognized and corrected is a sure way to the apprehension of Truth.

Har-pacrates in all!!! My Friend!!! :"...quidam redimitus puer ad os compresso digito salutari silentium commonebat.!!!"
L.V.X x Love X Will = Magnitude!!! -
I have to re-think this matter!!! Regardie was implored & moreover "quite" scolded for such by A.C. We all deal w/projections on many & various lvls. The reason for silence is to build you'r own set of symbols & to see how they truly make a difference w/in you'r "work" or no. We all have a connection to the collective unconcsious also however.

"I've given some thought to it. I have performed the Bornless Ritual over fifty times in the last seventy two hours. I've also had quite a bit of caffeine and gotta say I"M WIRED!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!
I now think this is the most important ritual in the history of the world. I feel like a whole new person, totally bad {***}!
I was contacted by this guy who claims to have attained K&C through this ritual and is offering to guide me step by step for the paltry sum of $500.00. I'm seriously considering not moving out of my parents place and using the money to help me in this ritual. I think it would be a smarter deal in the long run."You just admitted to being a damn fool. There is a sucker born every minute, in your case it sounds like your a bornless sucker hahah.lol. get it...
You really just kind of admitted to being a damn fool.
Silence has its virtues, as in Hermetic silence, as in try not to chat away at others about your experiences and instead internalize them where they will grow rather than dissipate.
Do you have kids? every realtionship is a two way street. I have three sons, and I've learned a damn lot from them.
Auditory hallucinations are not a good thing.
You are 45 and living in your parents basement and you collect star trek collectables. Do you have any idea what kind of stereotype you sound like? Sell all that shit, get your feet on the ground, your head on your shoulders and move out of your parents house. There, I just saved you $500, best advice you'll ever get for free. -
why is these right wing nut jobs are always the ones living in their parents basement? Haven't you been paying attention? Turn off the damn news channels and take a look at your country. These people aren't going to take back America for YOU. No, they're lookin out for the ones linin THEIR pockets. Get real dude.
You seem WAY off balance and I suggest you step back and concentrate on some preliminary work and some mental exercises that will sharpen up you brain and your perceptions of things a bit. Maybe you should just stick to some simple ritual like the LBRP for a while along with some meditations. -

"Family values."

Seriously, I can't even tell if this guy is joking or not, especially when he says he's been practicing ritual in a Batman cape ( ihope that isnt the only thing he was wearing), living in his parents basement with his star trek toys at the age of 45, and willing to pay someone $500 to walk him through the Bornless rite. I mean, he has to be joking right? Because really it's just too much to be true.

Relax, he already decided (and publicly stated it) that he felt he had acted unwisely in this thread and wanted to change things; no sense in beating a dead horse. The past is the past.

AbUldIZ418, you're crossing the line into personal attacks. Those aren't acceptable here.
Thanks in advance for a small tweak in your style that would let you continue making your points without personal attacks.
