"Magnum" Opus

"Read lots of books on the subject to get in the mood. Talking about magic with non-magicians is like talking to virgins about shagging. Reading about magic is like reading about sex; it will get you horny for the real thing but it won't give you nearly as much fun.

Reading will give you a feel for what's crap and what can usefully be adapted to your own style. Develop discrimination. Don't buy into cults. Aliens. Paranoia. Or complacency. Learn whom to trust and whom to steer clear or."

“Simple. Declare yourself a magician. Behave like a magician. Practice rnagic every day.

Be honest about your proogress, your successes and failures. Tripping on 500 mushrooms might loosen your astral sphincter a little but it will not generally confer upon you any of the benefils of lhe magic l'm discussing here. Magic is about what you bring BACK from the Shining Realms of the Uberconscious. The magician dives into the lmmense Other in search of tips and hints and treasures s/he can bring home to enrich life in the solid world. And if necessary. Fake it till you rnake it.”

Não resta dúvida de que, mesmo no que consideramos “um alto nível de civilização”, a consciência humana ainda não alcançou um grau razoável de unidade. Ela ainda é vulnerável e suscetível à fragmentação."

Assim são os momentos escatológicos da História...

Enquanto para uns o mundo se acaba em conflitos cada vez mais destrutivos e complexos, para outros é o momento ideal para simplesmente lamber a própria caceta, como o faz o gracioso doguinho desta pintura.
