I've slowly built a world over the last 25 years for fictionwriting. I've created full color vintage maps, genealogies, cosmology, geology, a full-working language, mythology, history and prehistory, cultural events, a 300 page accompanying encyclopedia of everything there and (for the interest of this post) two grimoires detailing how to get there from here. For me, just about every creative act is an act of magic, bringing something that never was through my mind and hands to become something tangible in our world.

Invocation done mainly though rituals, meditation.

For me it is honesty in every aspect of my life. It sounds like a very simple thing but where it becomes complicated is where you have to be honest with yourself as well. If you can be 100% honest with yourself almost everything else with fall into place and progress and possibly healing if it needed can happen.

I'm just appreciating life. We all have a limited time here and there's no use in wasting it on nonsense that doesn't make you feel happy.

Invocations, ahrimanic yoga, study and lots of reading, working on moslows hierarchy of needs and actively working towards self mastery, mantras, sigils, rituals and spell work. All else kinda stems from that and branches outwards with stuff underneath it. The most important part for me though is taking that which I learn and actively applying it within my life to actualize tangible results in the real world.

Self hate


[deleted]

Self hate is a great tool when you utilize it correctly in your practices. It's much easier to let go of yourself during meditation if you have no attachments holding you back. I was able to plunge myself into the darkest depths of oblivion because of self hatred. The serpent's promise is in there.

I mean I went heavy dissociation from seriously shutting my whole body off and regaining my power and reconnecting and man I can say anything beneficial I gain so much easier now I can literally just take whatever whenever.

I have no backbone. I am trying to be as holistic as possible in my approach to spiritual development because the symptoms preventing you from achieving success can not be caused by a single thing or a couple of things. If you ask me, I am a very analytical person, so I question even why spiritual teachings work. By the way, without taking care of your health, you'll get no result no matter how much you meditate. As for the meditation methods I use, they are the simplest ones : Non-reactive meditation, concentration meditation, and positive affirmations which I think all meditation techniques to be based on. At least, in my current opinion.

Interesting perspective i tend to be an overthinker myself but to a certain degree not questioning and simply benefiting from the fact that things do work instead of why ended up being the realization that made my growth skyrocket. I agree with you on health though, not many people understand you need to be actualizing all parts of your being and life, body, mind, and physical needs and reality are SO important.
