>Anon, do you have a timetable or something that substantiates I'm somehow 'late' to a waypoint?
Hey, i'm just asking because i am curious.

Usually. Nobody's above off days.

By 'that stage' I mean 'learning how to do it' since the contention was that I was unable to do it. It's one of the first things the young occultist learns, which I did alongside yoga, the LBRP, Agrippa that I printed off in my HS computer lab, etc.

>believing that you haven't had enough lifetimes to spontaneously attain
Did I ... say that? Rather, I'm only trying to distinguish between standard and nonstandard outcomes. I could attain tomorrow morning. I probably won't.


In good faith as opposed to all the other folks who ask that as if it's some kind of gotcha. Here, let's try this a different way. How old was Crowley when he allegedly received Liber L? When he realized it was a communication from his Angel? When he publicly activated the A.'.A.'.?

Here's more topical one, when was my last interaction with my own Angel, would you guess?

Hey Ape, are you experienced with the creation of elementaries, as described in chapter 7 of Initiation into Hermetics? I'd appreciate any tips on powering up an elementary to create significant material effects?

It's all the same sangha. A devotee of the Blessed One is a devotee of the Blessed One.

>Also if you think Theravada is cringe you haven't studied their esoteric practices


Great for it's time, a bit old and out of date now.


I don't work IIH. That said I've programmed some egregores. Sexual energy works great. Imparting that energy to a talisman or object like a vessel also works great. Contemplations subsuming yourself into the element works great. Sigilizations and creation of barbaric names works great.

Do you think a practicioner of Golden Dawn magic can use it as their main grimoire? Do you knowing anything like that is more updated?
gpt
Uh sure I don't see why not.
I know a lot of material that's more contemporary, I'm not sure how relevant it is to you or any other practitioners without playing twenty questions. It's a solid compilation just kinda old.

For the Lemegeton associated grimoires use Peterson. For Verum and the like use Jake Stratton Kent. There's a new translation of Agrippa from Inner Traditions, who is a sus publisher, but I know the translator and they're rock solid and the text is well constructed from the bookbinding. Just look around the community there's plenty of stuff getting re-translated and re released.
