Mathematics Has Peaked

I’d ask for a definition of mind, but I realize it may then be ‘the faculty that allows for the law of identity’. Might we phrase it like that?

In this case; “a mechanism with which to predict.”

@Fixed Cross

An occult act, as what it means to me, is a creation of a thought-form that except by experience of it in the terms of ones subjective being, can not be identified, has because of its subjective context no sufficient definition by which to communicate it. It can only be approximated through “poetry” in the etymological meaning of the word, from the greek verb poein, to make.

“Occult” means a hidden/secret culture from “ocularis cultura”; Cabal, Homeland Security, Satanism, Magi, Ahdam and Eve…
You are thinking of “cultism” or the development of a culture, a modality of thought, a “mindset”.

@Fixed Cross

It’s about as great a challenge we can realistically face, and by all existing standards unrealistic.

Not all standards.

Let me add that my violent objection to antisemitism is result of having seen too deep into the eyes of the will to power.
It may not in all cases be rational - but I know now that my most basic value is on the line - Mercy.

Both what you hate and the cause of hating are fathered by Presumption.

What you mean is “black magic”, which as its aim has personal power gain, and is irrational, antirational even.
Rational manifestation of occult method, or “white” magic, has as its aim to enlighten people into self-attained positions higher service, so that gradually darkness (presumption, confusion, dissociation, conflict, dishonesty, hatred) no longer holds sway in mass decisions.

The beauty of it is not the service itself but the requirements it makes of the adept - that he learn to see and eventually also think in terms of energy. He no longer needs language, Babel, to form his ideas - there is not a single lineair logic to them, but a symmetry - to put this in word is something few occultists have managed. This is of course why it remains such an obscure subject, and why the lower and the higher forms are not easy to distinguish from one another from the outside.

adj.

1. Of, relating to, or invoking the supernatural: “stubborn unlaid ghost/That breaks his magic chains at curfew time” (John Milton).
2. Possessing distinctive qualities that produce unaccountable or baffling effects.

“Black magic” == deception used for bad.
“White magic” == deception used for good.

If magic is your aim, deception is your game.
Enlightenment is never the goal, merely the carrot.

Forget I mentioned it.
