    The Mystics' Rede
    11-9-19 e.v.

    "There are purse-proud penniless ones that stand at the door of the tavern and prate of their feats of wine-bibbing."

    The average person is dreaming and they don't even know it.

    "These are fools that men adore; both their Gods & their men are fools."



    "There are purse-proud penniless ones that stand at the door of the tavern and revile the guests."

    The Initiate only becomes aware of the idea that they are dreaming, but is as yet without the practical know-how to rectify that.

    "Little by little, as your eyes grow stronger, will we unveil to you the ineffable glory of the Path of the Adepts, and its nameless goal."



    =+=ThKRP=+=


    "The guests dally upon couches of mother-of-pearl in the garden; the noise of the foolish men is hidden from them."

    The Adept wakes up from the dream, only to fall back into its gravity most of the time. (They are as one who every now and then realizes with sufficient clarity that they're dreaming, and this momentarily wakes them up.)

    "And in all shalt thou create the Infinite Bliss, and the next link of the Infinite Chain. This chain reaches from Eternity to Eternity, ever in triangles— is not my symbol a triangle?— ever in circles— is not the symbol of the Beloved a circle? Therein is all progress base illusion, for every circle is alike and every triangle alike! But the progress is progress, and progress is rapture, constant, dazzling, showers of light, waves of dew, flames of the hair of the Great Goddess, flowers of the roses that are about her neck, Amen!"



    =+=333=+=


    "Only the inn-keeper feareth lest the favour of the king be withdrawn from him."

    The High Adept is awake and never again is fooled by the lure of the dream. (These are lucid dreamers when they choose to dream.)

    "And all these things fled away, for he understood them all, that they were but as old rags upon the Divine Perfection."

    TIME ! TIME ! TIME !
    I barely have the time to abstract a billion years of experience...
    A Single Night of Fiery Truth -
    Yet you expect prose ?
    OH THAT BIG ASS & NOSE

    Me is but the scribe for the I who dictates the "one verse."

      O!
      HA ! HA!
      Do you want to get married?
      Say
      "Yes," aloud, to
      U N I V E R S E
      and one day we might meet,
      I will whisper something into your ear
      We will make LOVE
      And in the fire of our passion,
      WE shall become as ashes
      Carried by the Wind

        One thing, I think, to be clear:
        I offer no guarantees ; only, possibilities
        I am a RUNNER,
        My Fathers Sun

          Nuptials?

          Goodness, I’ve been away. I didn’t know we were to the proposals already.

            "A mystic is anyone who meditates to experience the altered states of awareness that come about by suppressing the attention of the mind to a single thing, until the outgoing tendencies of that mind desist and there is left only the awareness of pure being, experiencing itself alone; time, space and causality are placed back into their folder of Conveniences For Linear Mental Comprehension"

            This arrested me.
            Planted doubt - is this all a lie ?

            That is an issue, I perceive, regarding Mysticism.
            Moment you go Prose-Ey , the rose becomes a Pose-Ey!"

            “Is this all a lie?”

            It certainly seems to hurt, and that’s probably more relevant than whether or not it’s “real.”

            What do either of you make of it?

              A straight line , being infinite, can never be traversed.
              Following brings you "Closer" or "Farther"
              Yet never reaching, T(w)o

              Thus:

              I would think so. In my experience it tends to represent resistance.
              It can be an indication of a reaction to the words based on passed experiences,
              or a 'Truth' you do not wish to see, so you distract yourself, quite easily....

              To be clear I shared my "search findings" because I felt the "image was really freaking cool."
              Any pain or hurt was unintentional; rather than fight, and grow apart:
              With an injection of MAGICK into MYSTICISM
              Let us transmute it into LOVE & LIGHT !

                I my self got a little triggered when my sincerity was questioned...
                When I was younger I was quite the internet troll
                I still, often, am labeled a Troll on "Social Media"
                However on this Forum, and other such places that discuss similar topics
                I have taken great pains to be sincere and avoid being antagonistic.

                  I learned that you get "psychically" linked to an argument and its voices.. "Center of Pestilence"? Maybe.

                  Whatever that means, I got really tired of it.

                    The Adept wakes up from the dream, only to fall back into its gravity most of the time. (They are as one who every now and then realizes with sufficient clarity that they're dreaming, and this momentarily wakes them up.)

                    "And in all shalt thou create the Infinite Bliss, and the next link of the Infinite Chain. This chain reaches from Eternity to Eternity, ever in triangles— is not my symbol a triangle?— ever in circles— is not the symbol of the Beloved a circle? Therein is all progress base illusion, for every circle is alike and every triangle alike! But the progress is progress, and progress is rapture, constant, dazzling, showers of light, waves of dew, flames of the hair of the Great Goddess, flowers of the roses that are about her neck, Amen!"

                    The High Adept is awake and never again is fooled by the lure of the dream. (These are lucid dreamers when they choose to dream.)

                    "And all these things fled away, for he understood them all, that they were but as old rags upon the Divine Perfection."

                    "I learned that you get "psychically" linked to an argument and its voices."

                    Mystically speaking I would say such links should be severed.

                      The average person is dreaming and they don't even know it.

                      "The Mystics' Rede (of I)


                      four-square, mystic,
                      I am a Nigh-hil-is-tic!
                      Who can know nothing,
                      there : being, no
                      thing to know

                      Though I dare
                      O, my god !
                      I DO, DARE : TO WILL
                      To feel, to think, to be-leaf

                      When, said:
                      "This is THAT,"
                      I recoils, horrified
                      At the denial of my validity
                      Sanctity of my solemn-I-ty
                      Accepting, Respecting
                      Beliefs
                      Best I can do as a fellow Me
                      to You

                      TOOT, TOOT
                      HOOT, HOOT"

                      Reading this just brought Brightness of Laughter, pure-undiluted-solar-simple-Happiness, to start my day!
