Life ain’t existence and non existence that’s for sure because that’s the binary output of a created but lifeless biological machine which claims to be an illusion.

If you are not a physical existence, what are you? A spirit?

We are, in my view, cosmic consciousness temporarily localised in a physical existence.

Surprisingly, I agree with you — though it could be expressed much more precisely.

The Universe is intelligent — this is evident from the vast diversity of forms of thought and connection at the level of elementary particle movement. In other words, the Universe “thinks” through the velocities and interactions of fundamental particles.

Humans, however, are a unique instrument of knowledge — a way for the Universe to know itself. Their uniqueness lies in the imperfection of thought. Emotions distort reason and give rise to foolishness. And foolishness is something the perfect logic of the Universe cannot generate on its own, which is exactly why it uses human foolishness, selecting from it what to bring into reality.

Your concept of “binary thinking” is only the beginning of thought: “There is something — why not imagine its opposite?” Then comes structure, or trinity — as in: “Two define the One.”

The point isn’t illusion — it’s information, which can take the form of illusion as a particular case.

Your supposed “knowledge” becomes laughable. Sleep exists, but “survival” during a period of lost control — nonsense.

You are not paying attention - the core problem here.

Everything is possible — after all, I’m communicating through a translator. But here’s the question:

Did you grasp the core idea — that without understanding “why,” knowledge is illusory and insignificant?

If you truly want to understand something, ask the question: “Who benefits from this?” — and keep asking it until you hit something undeniably obvious.

That is the only way to reach real knowledge.

[abc1231 (Jupiter123)]

Binary software isn’t an illusion.It was created.Lifeless binary software computes that it exists and doesn’t exist.There is no life in a lifeless binary software processing machine which computes that it exists and doesn’t exist and is therefore an illusion.

This binary software operating machine exists because it needs to exist to claim that it doesn’t exist and it doesn’t exist because it doesn’t possess life.

Life and knowledge are different.

I think that most people who use their thinking apparatus knows that knowledge is fractal and that the larger implications overwhelm most of us. We can know that it is so, but cannot overcome the overwhelming. That is why we tend to specialise or focus narrowly, because the wider perspective is known intuitively, and gains no specific information.

The problem is though that to obtain meaningful perspectives, we need the wider outlook to put things into perspective. However, we will never have such a wide perspective that sees the interaction of planetary objects, or even the global interactions, because we are distracted by superficialities and we have people globally controlling the media to prevent certain information leaking.

My day-to-day language is also not English but German, but knowledge of “how” is never insignificant even if it is partial knowledge. The question that arises with your proposal is whether it is possible to know “why” on a significant level that helps us understand our situation better.

Your statement that you need to know who benefits from what you are observing may be applicable to what happens on this planet locally, and perhaps as far as their influence reaches globally, but if we are talking about existence, it doesn’t make much sense.

The planet mars isn’t alive. its a planet. Its a bunch of static rocks floating in space. It doesn’t have a mind. It doesn’t transform data. It has no functions. A function is something that transforms data. And it doesn’t have an image. its a giant boulder in space. a giant boulder doesn’t have communications or neurons.

What prevents us, for example, from asking the question “Who benefits?” and, through the stubborn repetition of this question, eventually coming across the concept of “God”? Then, by analyzing this, we can conclude who God really is and what He truly requires. Religions, atheism, theism, science, and even philosophy — all of them would disappear as if they had never existed. Only one thing would remain: magic.

Magic — the understanding of essence through the comprehension of meaning. Magic allows you to answer anything from the perspective of two measures — objectivity and subjectivity. Nothing else can do that.

[Kallikantzaros (Silenus)]

The Origins of Gnosticism & The Early Church

[Kallikantzaros (Silenus)]

Magic = corruption of words/symbols to produce a psychosomatic effect on the indoctrinated.
Magic is always semiotic. It has no effect on anything that does not understand the language being used.

[Kallikantzaros (Silenus)]

From first-person, to second-person and finally to third-person perspective.
Ascent from plant consciousness through animal consciousness and finally human consciousness.
A process of subjective gradations…reaching objectivity, but never completely attaining it. .

First-person = consciousness of other. No awareness of self, other than a grounding.
Second-person = projection of self-knowledge into another - sympathy.
Imagining oneself in another’s circumstances. Projected self-consciousness.
Third-person = projection of consciousness in an undefined local, perceiving self & other with relative indifference. God perspective, or theo-retical. Empathy…minus sympathy/antipathy.
Inherited constitution determine the levels of objectivity that can be endured…or how much objectivity a man can attain.

Third person perspective exposes the man to a new source of suffering, because now he can perceive himself as he is, rather than as how he wishes to appear.
This is where language is used to protect the ego from its own awareness - nihilism.
The very process of disconnecting ego from self, as a means of attaining objectivity, now becoems an end in itself.

Similar to the difference between nihilistic, e.g., Buddhism, Abrahamism, and Hellenic asceticism.
Nihilistic dogmas, ideologies, make asceticism the end…Hellenism or pagan worldviews make it a means of exercising the spirit’s endurance of the truth.

[Kallikantzaros (Silenus)]

The God Abraxas (Abrasax, Abraxis and Latin-Afipacrdl) comes to us from ancient Egypt and Greece. He is associated with the early beginnings of Gnosticism which would later influence many of the first Gnostics who had gone on to form the various Abrahamic religions such as Judaism and Christianity.

The famous Abraxas Talisman or Gem normally shows a man’s body with the head of a cock, one arm with a shield, and the other with a whip. It was engraved on many antique gemstones, called on that account, Abraxas stones which were used as amulets or charms during the second and third centuries.

THE SCIENCE OF ABRAXAS

Abraxas (Abrasax, Abraxis and Latin-Afipacrdl) is an ancient term associated with Gnosticism that had influenced much of what we know of today as the pagan movement and even various religions such as Judaism and Christianity. According to Gnostic principles, the number 365 and the seven letters of the name Abraxas correspond to the seven rays of the planetary spheres in which he is king of the heavens and earth.

The original Gnostic religion of Abraxas has its roots in the ancient Egyptian New Kingdon located at Thebes. It was here where they had proclaimed Jupiter to be the supreme ruler of both the AS ABOVE and SO BELOW, in which they had subscribed to him seven subordinate angels (planets). The meaning of Thebes is from the word Theba that signifies ‘Ark.’ The capital of the religion of the City of Light or what we know of as Luxor, where they had worshipped god Amon-Ra (Jupiter-Amon).

The seven letters of the name Abraxas reference to 365 is the number of days which the planet Jupiter rules the heavens as the Father and King of planets, and the seven letters correspond to the seven rays of the planetary spheres in which the name Jupiter also has seven letters. Since the most ancient times, the planet Jupiter has been worshipped as a god. In fact, there is not one planet or star on earth that has garnished as much adoration and worship as this one planet. Not Saturn, not Venus and not even the sun. The word Abraxas is just another code name like Amon-Ra (Jupiter-Amon) for this king of the planets that has a thousands names and symbols. Names that all represent the planet Jupiter.

In the sixth creation we learn from the Targura of Palestine that Adam, as the Adamic man, was created in the image of the Lord, his maker, with 365 nerves. According to the Talmud, the human body is composed of 248 organs and 365 sinews(a total of 613 parts). In Hebrew, this translates to the 248 spiritual organs and 365 spiritual sinews (under which vague term are included, as stated above, arteries, nerves, etc.), corresponding to the 365 negative laws, and representing the 365 days of the year.

These are governed by 365 angels, one of whom is Samael himself, who represents the ninth day of the month of Ab [the fast commemorating the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans]. The reason why the sinew of the thigh nerve was forbidden was because it represents Samael [Satan], who is one of the 365 angels, whose day is the Ninth of Ab” and(also, Sammael or Samil) is an important archangel in Talmudic and post-Talmudic lore, a figure who is accuser (devil), seducer and destroyer, and has been regarded as both good and evil. Rabbinical writings describe Samael as the guardian angel of Esau and a patron of Edom (or, the Roman empire).

The serpent symbology found on the talisman and gemstones of Abraxas actually represent the worm. In the Apocryphon of John, found in the Nag Hammadi library, the Gnostic Abraxas becomes Samael who is the third name of the demiurge, and whose other names are Yaldabaoth and Saklas. Hebrew names that mean “the blind god.” The theme of blindness running throughout gnostic works, and now appears in a new image of a lion-faced serpent. In On the Origin of the World in the Nag Hammadi library texts, Samael who we know also as Abraxas is referred to as Ariael, the Archangel of Principalities.

In the ancient Jewish Gnostic Mysteries, the serpent (worm) was a symbol of Samael, the archangel of Mars and the master of the astral light. One of Samael’s greatest roles in Jewish lore is that of the main archangel of death. He remains one of YHWH’s servants even though he wants men to do evil. As an angel, Samael resides in the seventh heaven, although he is declared to be the chief angel of the fifth heaven, the reason for this being the presence of the throne of glory in the fifth heaven.

Manly P. Hall had written in ‘How to Understand Your Bible’, “In the 3rd chapter of Genesis the adversary is Samael, the Serpent, and like Mephistopholes it is “a spirit of negation; part of the power that still works for good while ever scheming ill. The old Jewish Mysteries declare the serpent to be a symbol of Samael, the archangel of Mars and the master of the astral light. In scriptural writings serpents are frequently used to represent currents or waves of force moving in space.

The Midgard Snake of the Nordic Eddas, and the Orphic serpent twined about the Egg of the Year, are both symbols of the zodiac and the serpentine course of the sun. The erect serpent of Egypt, and the hooded Naga of India and Cambodia, signify the spinal fire in man. The winged serpents of Gobi, and the Taoist dragons of China, represent both the psychic forces of the soul and the initiates, or sky-men. The Indians of the Southwest of America have serpent symbols of similar significance; and the Quetzalcoatl, or Feathered Snake of Central America, is a symbol of the initiate or high priest. The Druid priests of Britain and Gaul called themselves serpents; and these too are the snakes that St. Patrick is said to have driven from Ireland.

This is the modern Gnostic theology and science of Abraxas.

Abraxas who is the heavenly worm of Jupiter sent from the divine universe to give to mankind the psychic forces to the light of the soul through 365 spiritual sinews (under which vague term are included, as stated above, arteries, nerves, etc.), corresponding to the 365 negative laws, and representing the 365 days of the year. He is the master of all initiates, or sky-men.

Abraxas is the astral serpent on the tree who hands the illumination of both good and evil to Adam and Eve whose eyes are then opened. The very king worm who rules this world, that is both our creator and destroyer. The maker of good and evil rolled into one persona, that being the human population in which Abraxas rules over the world like the great Gnostic Basilides described; “the greatest God” (De vir. ill. 21), “the highest God” (Dial. adv. Lucif. 23), “the Almighty God” (Comm. in Amos iii. 9), and “the Lord the Creator” (Comm. in Nah. i. 11).

Abraxas is the Demiurge and Archon Magnus.

The planet mars isn’t alive. its a planet. Its a bunch of static rocks floating in space. It doesn’t have a mind. It doesn’t transform data. It has no functions. A function is something that transforms data. And it doesn’t have an image. its a giant boulder in space. a giant boulder doesn’t have communications or neurons.

You claim that Mars is just a “chunk of rock,” without mind, function, or image. A lifeless object, nothing more. But let’s ask a simple question:
Why do you believe “alive” and “dead” are truly opposite things?

This dualism isn’t a product of reason — it’s the echo of fear, deeply programmed into your biology. It’s instinct, not insight. The fear of death birthed this sharp divide between life and non-life. But in reality, death is not the absence of life — it’s the continuation of transformation.

You see the planet as an isolated object. But one could just as easily point at a human hand, severed from the body, and say: “That’s not alive.” True — in isolation. Yet as part of a body, it was once fully alive.
Mars, like the hand, is only “dead” when misunderstood as separate. It is not a living object — but it is a part of a living whole: the Universe, which moves, evolves, connects, dies, and is reborn.

Here’s the core principle:

Magic — the understanding of essence through the comprehension of meaning.

And so:

Life is a conditional period of change, beyond which those changes are no longer considered meaningful by perception.

Your logic clings to form and function, but misses the deeper point:
Life isn’t just function — it is perceived transformation.
So your conviction that Mars is “dead” is not a conclusion — it’s a limitation.

You limit life by the form it takes, afraid to recognize it where it doesn’t fit the mold.
But true reason lies in the ability to see the nature of transformation, not in denying it.

The one afraid of mortality, claims its “unreasonable” to differentiate life from death…

He wants to believe that everything is alive…stones, clouds, rivers… projecting his fear as an accusation…and considers it “irrational” to differentiate life from the non-living…to udnerstand what life is.
He uses obscurantism to allude to what is insane…not merely irrational…desperate.

Similar to beginning with consciousness as a given, because you cannot explain it. You make it into a groundless grounding, to then proceed in fabricating a promising TOE.
A presupposed metaphysical fact…that ought to just be taken for granted, if these narcissists are to proceed to explain their TOE, hoping to string along gullible imbeciles.

So, why not make everything alive…because he cannot explain life.
It’s his metaphysical presumption…his groundless grounding.
Just take it for granted…take it on faith.

Magic is always semiotic. It has no effect on anything that does not understand the language being used.

Symbolism is a small part of magic — a part where not only are symbols studied, but also constructed.
Unlike linguistics, magic does not distort the meaning of words, because it studies their nature, fully accounting for the formality of every word.

Magic influences nature itself, not just psychosomatics, which is merely a domain within medicine — but not the whole of it.

You are unfamiliar with both essence and meaning — and that’s precisely why you have no desire to hear anything about magic.

It’s actually easy to test.

What is meaning? And what is essence?
Would you like to test magic on an animal?

Try cursing at a dog that is attacking you.
The animal won’t understand the literal meaning of your words — but in most cases, it will stop the attack.

Are historical figures — those who’ve “supposedly” died — still alive?
Are artists, writers, poets, political leaders truly gone just because their bodies have long since decayed?

The answer is: Yes, they are alive.
Their spirit lives on — in the memory of ordinary living people — and it undeniably shapes thoughts and actions.

This is something you not only fail to grasp, but something your envy (even if unconscious) pushes you to reject — hiding behind empty talk about death.

Faith is nothing more than a herd instinct.
Don’t force your own weaknesses onto others.

The Demon works with assumptions.

Yes, it does…it uses words to disconnect the mind form reality, and reconnect to other words…governed by emotions.

@Demon

Magic influences nature itself, not just psychosomatics, which is merely a domain within medicine — but not the whole of it.

Words have zero effect on what does not comprehend words/symbols…
Victims have to be primed, Pavlovian training…triggered by words/symbols.

@Demon

What is meaning? And what is essence?

This is the third Time i will define meaning…
Meaning refers to how phenomena inter-relate, interact.

There is no cosmic purpose…purpose is an objective.

Essence is one of these words charlatans, like you, use to pretend you have profound occult knowledge.
Objectively speaking, essence like spirit refers to mind/body synthesis - psychosomatic - connected by the nervous ssytem, including the brain.
It is where words have an effect..

@Demon

Try cursing at a dog that is attacking you.
The animal won’t understand the literal meaning of your words — but in most cases, it will stop the attack.

What a naive dolt…it will respond to the tone of your voice, not the words.

Scream, or growl…“I love you” and give ti a menacing look, and it will stop.

Words/symbols have magic because of the imagery they trigger, the emotions…and if delivered in a particular tone…a sequence…a rhythms…it all participates in the magical effect.

Try screaming at a stone, manchild.
Curse a cloud…

You want to pretend you know something profound…deep…occult…like Ollie and Iakob…and ecmandu…and every moron that comes here selling his metaphysical wares to gullible minds.
Another narcissist…looking for admiration.

[Kallikantzaros (Silenus)]

Animals feel your energy…they don’t understand your words, unless you’ve traiend them, or learned what they vaguely refer to, due to continuous use…like calling their name.
They’ve learned their meaning…what they refer to - inter-connection.

Animals are unaffected by the meaning of words, if they do not learn what YOU associate the sound of the words, with…
Meaning = inter-relation.
The word of its name, the sound of its name, is connected to itself…It learns this with repetition…and treats.

Animals that do not understand words are unaffected…they only react to the energy you exude…your body language…your tone, your pitch, the look in your eyes, your posture…
Are you naive?

Body language is a form of communication.
Magic is about using words/symbols to communicate ideas that trigger specific emotions, imagery, sensations. Therefore, how you deliver the words, if they are oral, is part of the magical effect.
That’s why magic spells always have a sequence…Abracadabra…a rhyme…hocus pocus…like a musical melody…
The associations are made in your head.

A hypnotist can’t hypnotize anyone…he selects the ones he perceives to be impressionable, affected by suggestion…like the placebo effect…then he uses his voice, his movements, his tone, gestures, rhythms, to trigger, in them, the process of self-hypnosis.

Why write nonsense — and worse, lie so openly?
Truth isn’t something your DNA strives for. It’s simply not in your nature.
You’re human — and yet you try to oppose the Demon, whose only purpose is to bring reason to humanity. Yes — even through manipulation, if needed.

Admiration? Narcissism? What’s the point of that when you’re hiding behind a username? It’s laughable.
If you truly mean something — then answer this:
Why are you trying to argue, instead of understand?
And don’t lie about seeking the truth.

Try yelling at a dog that’s attacking you. Of course, this won’t work on small dogs — they usually attack out of fear. Their tiny brains don’t have room for anything but fear. Still, this advice might save your life or at least protect you from being bitten.

Magic isn’t just about words and symbols. For example, I wear a “witch’s chain” — what do words or symbols have to do with that?

You simply don’t understand anything about magic, and that’s only because of a lack of knowledge. It’s like offering advanced mathematics to a tribesman — he’d cry out about “symbols” too. (Just a joke.)
