Skimping on the meditation aspect will definitely hinder your growth. The meditation helps channel your focus from a million things going on in your daily life down to the single task at hand. It calms your body and mind and helps to prepare you for any rituals you plan on engaging in. Meditation before magick is like the warm-up before the run. Hope this helps.

Back to the original question of our thoughts on Frater Oz's videos, I have watched several of them and no matter what, I think it's great to read the instructions of the rituals from the books, but then also be able to watch them being performed (even if they do see a bit rushed).

As soon as I started getting into Liber ABA, cats don't come near me. A neighborhood cat who came by faithfully to be fed every day stopped showing up completely and now when she does she won't let me pet her anymore.
