Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Brother, is this all you want from the whole corpus of "occult" instruction?

Of course not.It is just a small part.
But it seems it is important. I dont know why."
I understand that. It seems overly ascetic to cast off the siddhis as superfluous distractions. They can become well-worn tools like anything else, used to the purposes of the holder. Go ahead and give it a go. See what happens to you.
It's just a small part, right?
You know why you're here, right?
You won't cause damage to other people, right? This includes their psyche. Austin Osman Spare once conjured an elemental for two laypeople and one of them went insane then killed themselves because of it. Practice Mercy.
But still, my point is that when you bend something pliable, IT SNAPS BACK.

Yes very right. I did some dangerous mistakes with magick in the past but i'm actually quiet now, it is not dangerous things i'm seeking. More artistic kind of transgression than "extreme" stuff.

Are you finding that no medium can express your artistic self other than the manipulation of siddhis for amusement?... Seriously, if that's really the case then go ahead and bang your head against that wall all you like. I personally keep my sorcery to the practice of making aural or visual art that provokes certain seed-ideas which plant themselves subliminally and grow as a natural realization within the psyche of the beholder, hopefully as a catalyst for Initiation.

Not to be accused of contributing to the delinquency of a minor...
The research of Gregg Braden might be interesting for you to read.I don't know how it is in France, but here in the USA no one gets admitted to a psych ward with out truly needing to be there.
Anyways, you are talking about a subject that I had recently been referred to research, so I wanted to discuss and ask a question that I had while I was looking into this. My question is " do you see truth in what this research tells me?"
I have read that in Magic, the lesser demonic beings pretend to be captured, controlled and doing the work of the Magician. ( or pretends to have feeling towards him and is in partnership) Specifically, for example a person invokes such and such force and comands that being to do some things for them. IE, superpowers, illusions, getting gold, screwing a starlet, fame fortune...the whole nine yards.
The being is actually never under the command of the Magician at all, but is demonically fulfilling these trivial empty pleasures, maybe for a the rest of this humans life, because when this human being dies.....the creature feeds on the remains. I am not thinking that this referrs to the physical body at all, but to the etheric body, the spiritual source or soul.
The creature, who has been called many different things in different lands, has eternity to wait for this, and as a master of lies will be completely and easily able to decieve the Magi into thinking that the human actually, willfully has command over it.
Now, there is an old adage that says " you are what you eat."
Thinking about the liitle Geni tricking a person just so they can feed on your shell, I am reminded of another parable about the internal struggle of humans, of two wolves: a good wolf and a bad wolf fighting.....the one that is going to win, is the one that the person feeds.
When I was a little girl, I can across a dead bunny rabbit. It looked perfect on day one, but by dat three the maggots had turned it into the most horrible sight and smell. When my grandma died soon after, I cried so deep because I didn't want her to turn into maggot food (I know, maggots have a purpose and a right to life, but I was a child). I was so relieved when We brought her to the crematorium, and then hurried her ashes in the park.

Do you believe in demons?"Even though you have repeatedly demonstrated that you do not have the courtesy to listen and hear the answers I give to your questions, I will answer this.....

In Nuit Anything and Everything Is Possible.

Yes i see truth.
The demon uses cuning and is very patient. It will wait until you forget about it and come back again and again everytime more undercover.
I think the best to face it is a good balance of analysis and magick, of defense and attack. Yes you are what you eat but in enemy zone there is the additional variable of being not able to trust the food. You must analyse it before you eat. But when you're sure it is good it is a waste of time analysing anything.
In mental institutions here there are all kind of people, and everyone is welcome.
It is some kind of community who share a lifestyle -

Is "with great power cums great responsability" related with greg Braden?
I've looked quickly what he says and it reminded me the "time thing" the maya talk about.
I've noticed a big change in how the time flows indeed those past 2-3 years but as it is at the same time i've started practicing seriously magick i always wonder what has a bigger impact.
What do you think? How powerful is the time thing? How does it impact magick? Super powers? Especially for those who had already a good level before? Do you think it impacts differently a guy who starts right now for instance?
-
No, that's my little twist on Stan Lee's character Uncle Ben in the SpiderMan comics.
Yes, I can see why Bradens Fractual Time would make you initially think of the Maya, but it's actualy more then that. I was thinking his work on the Divine Matrix, or Spontaneous Healing would be more relevant to your original topic.
I have always personally understood time to be individually relevant. I don't wear a watch, my home has one clock that came on the stove, and one that displays on the receiver of my phone, so it's not something that I feel is important for me to have a constant reminder of. I do feel that as humans wise time management is very important to success. understanding cycles, patterns, rhythms makes my life much smoother and enjoyful, and enables me to capitalize on opportunities, to predict behaviors, and not succumb to momentary pressures.magic, like sex, or a fruitcake is very much about timing. Time impacts everything differently.
