"Word" and pedagogy of HGA?!
-
Is there something specific in the way HGAs tend to communicate, in a way related to the "word" of a Magus? Let me get clearer. Is HGA supposed(or does it happen regularly), to give a particular word and to base a lot his teachings on such a word? In a way similar to the Magus who will give a word to humanity, say "thelema" and then base most of his teachings on this?
Maybe i can get even clearer. A great difference between what i consider my HGA(for about a year) and other subtle beings is he does this stuff. It's a very specific way of comunicating which i never noticed from anyone else. It makes me associate with this "magus stuff".
Basically he told me a word, and almost nothing else ! But he SHOWED me many many ways of interpreting and applying this same word. I notice this word has deep meanings and consequences for me. I'm surprised i still consider it a mystery after a year meditating on it. I may continue for years on that same word as it seems endless.
Also, i noticed it's important for that being that i continue meditating on this. There's no way i can keep contact without keeping on this. I know there's not even a point in talking to him again(for months now !) before i apply better this word in everyday life. He keeps watching and will remain silent till i'm ready for the next step. I must apply better to get further teaching. Is this pedagogy something related to HGAs? Once again it never happened with any other being.

The concept, I would say, is similar to that of the Word of the Magus.
Instead of it being THE WORD OF THE AEON,
It is the Word of YOUR AEON (movement from general to particular)
I may go as far to say it is the key to your True Will
This, of course, is speculation based off my personal experiences

This reminds me of a post by J.A.E.

"This may also appl to non-Magi working within the stream. For example, my 1985 magical retreat delivered to me, in its last minutes, the phrase that fully aticulated my True Will, everything I had been doing unconsciously all of my life, everything I'd been unthinkingly preparing for: "Train all to know and to do their True Will." Wanting to reduce it to a single word, I broke it down Qabalistically to LAHVTY (Lahoti). It enumerates to 61, which wa a warm belly-laugh of an inside joke for me. - Sometime later my mind went to, "Yes, this is for me, but it's not whatI would utter." I realized that the message, from this, that I would utter to others was, "Learn to know and do you True Will!" It meant dropping the Lamed from the front. The resulting word - AHVTI (Ahoti) - enumerates to 31.
This wasn't the Word of a Magus, but he Word of a Zelator. It has served me in my life very well since then, though."
Maybe that helps?

The word "word" isn't necessarily meant literally. It has a wider meaning of an impulse, an utterance of intention, etc. The True Will is the voice of the HGA streaming through us.
But often there is also a literal word. In fact, the Angel's name is commonly the most characteristic example of this. (To take a public example: Crowley's HGA had a name that enumerated both to 93 and 418, he formulae of Crowley's own Will and Work.)

Yes, this sort of encoded arational puzzle happens with some frequency

Thanks guys, greatly appreciated...

"Yes the meaning is very wide and subtle... thus the endless puzzle, associations... it feels like both writing and reading a story at the same time. And yes there's a will implied, so there is intention, impulse, a "frequency adjusting" and alchemical ways to achieve that on all planes... all related.
The being "showed" me directly by "doing" partly what i'm supposed to do. But it's very challenging to say the least. Like if rafael nadal showed his service to a begginer and told him:"now your turn ! do the same" and left him on the tennis court until he does the same service. If i could master what he did the way he did it(HGA, not Nadal
) , i would probably be an adept. I swear i will do someday. Whatever it takes. No way i refuse such a challenge.Now reading this i realise i "forgot" associating the word with the name. I dont see manifest correspondances but it may be a tree hiding a forest once again. Whats funny is both word and name begins with the same letter. And now this double letter makes me associate with some life experiences ! And people ! And numbers !
Also there are various related correspondances in all the four langages i know. I will associate all of these with hebrew and see. I love this stuff
