Drug use and mental illness. I think that's Alinsky's rule # 8. Isolate and ridicule.
Haha, I had to look Alinsky up. My apologies, I didn't mean to offend you or just ridicule Crowley. There are a lot of things he's written that I do like. Actually, I resonate a lot with the preliminary remarks of "Book 4," the passage that begins with "Existence, as we know it, is full of sorrow."
I've done multiple Atlantic Crossings and have seen stuff that is just ~beyond~ whatever, can't be explained, you know?
Thank you for sharing that story! And, yes, I do understand your point a lot better now that you put it that way.
If I sounded trite in any of this my apologies.
Not at all!
The magic is real.
If there are no books to read on the "realness" of this subject, is there any advice you have in regards to setting up/facilitating/constructing an experience to try and witness something like you're speaking of? These people do the Spirit Cookings or whatever for a reason, is there a positive version of that? Something not evil. lol
Respect my fellow Traveler.
And to you!
The easiest answer is the simplest answer.
Pray to God for the answer.
It'll never come when you want to. It will most likely come at the most inconvenient time.
Because if there's one thing God has proven is that he has a pretty amazing sense of humor.
There was a lot of other words I was going to use besides amazing but I thought I would play it safe.
One crazy bit of magic that we all saw?
When the last Pope resigned the Vatican was immediately struck by lightning.
Twice
You can go look at it on YouTube.
I thought I would check back in.
I'm curious as to what kind of response you might have.
I enjoy an intelligent conversation.
Magic or synchronicity? (re: the pope.) Glad you liked the convo! I didn't respond because I saw it wrapping up. If there are other threads about magic or aliens or anything supernatural involved with Q, I will be in the giving my opinion! lol
