As always it’s used to hold power over others, more charlatans than enlightened masters. I’m fine if it’s all abolished that’s one of the things I can agree with Jacob Frank on
I get it, a lot of people find Asian religions exotic and because they don’t know about the corruption, you sometimes need to rail against it to shock them out of their fantasies. But do we have to church bash all the time? I think most people who wander through here are already a little disillusioned by organized religion, western or eastern.
You’re right, it’s a distracting (from practice) topic. But it’s also often brought up by new people, who still cling to their illusions.
We can then point them to posts like this one.
People still need funerals and marriages.
Actually it caused me to realize something very important.
I’ll try to make a post of it, but I need the references from the books, because no one is going to accept it.
As for church bashing, Carlos did that. You could almost count on it each private class.
I only copy what Carlos did, even if it seems I’m making it up as I go along.
However, he had a comedy routine. It was very funny when he bashed churches!
I’m just not very funny so it’s become tedious.
Carlos didn’t so much at workshops. Or at least, I can’t recall any church bashing at workshops.
But that was “the new crop”, and what he was really after was to pull the hardest working from workshops, and bring them to private class.
I suspect once he got them into private class, he partially wanted to aggravate anyone that would get aggravated over religion, so they’d go away. So the church bashing took place there.
It’s really, really, really hard to learn sorcery.
Only 1 in 100 will be willing to even try.
There’s absolutely no benefit at all to the other 99 hanging around.
It’s not a church afterall…
(A joke).
I’ll post the results of today’s church bashing tomorrow, and you can see for yourself.
I hadn’t realized it yet.
If I’m lucky, I’ll even ask Lily about it.
But last night, she only showed up for a minute or two.
The night before, she was telling me how the old seers used the inorganic beings realm like a museum of sorcery techniques. Sometimes they were going in and out of there like it was their own private warehouse.
It was part of her “Stories that should never be told”.
Didn’t Crowley have a book with that title???
And wasn’t it supposedly originated with a demon?
Wasn’t my idea. Blame Lily.
I detest the tulpa subreddit normally, it is more like a circle jerk than anything. Not to mention people egging on bad habits to everyone else. and espousing purposely creating multiple personality disorders.
this guy seems to have run across dark / dim room / eye open / gazing. Which is interesting. Of course, now he has split his personality (instead of cleaning it up) and has an unruly personality running about in his head. And externally, as far as manifesting goes. Exactly why you don’t create viz / energy manifestation with human forms (in general) and keep them around 24/7, feeding them energy all day every day… While not controlling them at all.
Iob’s tend to take them over and give them whatever personality they want w/out permission. Want a serial killer in your head? (extreme example) Or an iob that wants to control your body all the time? Lots of folks over in that sub, literally give the Iob or split personality turns driving their body during the day.
Anywho, interesting but a can of worms.
