Do we actually know why anything happens and is there any use at all in trying to argue with people about why stuff happens?

I know that mental influence is real and that objects in this universe all exhibit mental properties and that mental laws govern everything; that all is mental. Beyond that I cringe at myself trying to explain too much, again & again. I want to elaborate on what has already been taught and try to make people understand the principles of Hermeticism better but it seems to be an impossible task. You either fully grasp and understand the principles in their true significance, or you don't, and you go back to normie shit.

My best bet at making another human being appreciate what I am into is to practice theurgy for them (and never saying a single word to them about occultism beforehand), stunning their mind by producing the undeniable phenomena of occultism for them to witness and experience for themselves. However the people I've done this for have become no less enlightened (and rather have actually become even MORE annoying and problematic) and I am reminded again of old scriptures where ancient monks had this exact problem and were reprimanded by their teachers for showing off powers.

A normie exposed to theurgy tends to derp-out and start talking a lot of New Age bullshit and falling into thousands of other mental trappings that keep them away from full understanding and power. Lets not even get started on alchemy though, I've already got so panicked by the reactions of normies who think I should make them alchemical potions and give them gold, that I just went into SHUT IT DOWN mode and tried to do everything to get them off of the subject. I've been offered everywhere from $50 to about $5,000 dollars as well by normies attempting to bribe me to do things for them.

I would really like to try and justify and summarize what I believe and WHY I devote my life to philosophy and occultism but I feel myself cringing so many times as I try to do it for other people. If I stick to stating only the principles of occultism and leaving it to them to seek the proofs (through experience) then I will end up saying nothing wrong but I won't be convincing in the least either. I've tried telling people "this is what I've experienced and this is why I take it seriously" but then they need proof and then when they get proof they continue to be pests. Any kind of modality I might put forward (and we all know there are many and that they all work in practice, though they are nothing more than models of the actual truth) will never be adequate because each one depends on subjective tastes / preferences.

Well anything that constitutes the perennial philosophy, the original teachings "in their pure form", would also correspond with Hermeticism. Every religion becomes degraded with time.

Also every single Buddhist I've talked to here in my country that came from Asia doesn't even have any fucking scriptures and has their own different thing going on that was passed to them by their parents. They are pathetic. Buddhism is just another crap religion when in the wrong hands (that of the masses).

There isn't any disinfo really in his books and some are stretched out too much but others are quite condensed.

Well there are a few a zen stories which I think make for a very good point on this subject… The only problem being that I always forget the names of the people involved in the stories and that makes it pretty hard to find them again.

But the gist of them are that the kindness of the master is found exactly in his harshness to his students, in him not giving away the answer. The act of giving it away not only lessen it's value as it also breeds weakness and dependence on the part of the student, as such your interference should always be minimal. If you wish to do good you should really give no more than a few hints and sugestions that can meet them at the place they are, not some grand demonstration of power as they can't even interpret that in a meaningful manner.

There's no point in suggesting an advanced book to a beginner, and equally there is no point in demonstrating something that is way beyond their understanding. I know this means almost everyone you meet will have no idea about your path, but that's just how it is.

“The problem with explaining complicated systems to the layman is this: it’s easy to simplify a concept to the point that that it’s no longer true.”

This is why Hermetic Science (magick) will never fall into the hands of normies because, as much as you'd like to simplify, as much as you'd like to make it easy for others and help them advance even faster than you were able to; there are no shortcuts in the occult.

Anyone who is inspired though, who intuitively or otherwise grasps the real significance of what we are doing, would desire nothing else than to walk the path though. They would rightfully see that is entirely worth doing so and that all the other stuff that keeps them in ignorance is a big waste of time. It is worth dedicating one's entire life to the magickal path and applying oneself full-heartedly to it.

This entire post is why you're all failures. If you can't explain things to people who ask, then attempt to and fail, then make excuses that it's way to "learned" and "hidden for you simple mind" it's because you don't know what the fuck you're talking about at all. It's like a terrible mexican mechanic who can't explain how he broke your car, so he just acts like he can't explain the complexity of it in english.

>Hermetic science

It was science, now science is science and you're a bunch of Christcuck level NeoPlatonists who ruined philosophy and have finally been pushed to the fringe of society because you can't produce a simple explanation as you don't KNOW ANYTHING. It's all fucking larping here

You're walking into a classroom that teaches calculus when you barely know arithmetic and you expect "clear explanations". This is highly EMPIRICAL knowedge. It's based on the most direct kind of experience. I can't reproduce an experience for you, you have to seek it out for yourself. That's why the motto of Hermeticism is "to dare, to will, to be silent". You need the cojones to go out and try for yourself. Words can never be a substitute for experience. The word "table" is not the same thing as an actual table, it signifies it. Hermetic science deals with consciousness itself as well as other "things" which are even harder to approximate in words. Hence the need for a highly symbolic language. There is a great deal of "larping" on this board, but no more than goes on in /pol/, just of a different kind. Some people like the image that is conventionally associated with "wizards" or "magic". It's just a question of personality. Some people are more theatrical or superficial.

[Your in a dream arguing with other people about being in a dream. Some, if not all, of the people you are arguing with are being put in your path just to distract you and make you doubt the path your on.]

The dream doesn't want you to wake up.

You are alone in your quest, surrounded by mindless zombies who have mastered the art of pretending to be alive and who function solely to keep you distracted while you run on the hamster wheel.

You can gain knowledge but the real truth is hidden inside yourself. You are a god caught in the trap of an illusion, and the illusions only power over you is keeping you from remembering who you are.

So here you are buried deep inside a labyrinth of your own making.

When your ready you will wake up.

I usually have pretty cool conversations in my dreams.

The entities are generally pretty understanding as long as I'm not being a butt. Getting explanations about this reality are difficult though, since we're communicating at a sort of crossroads of consciousness.

>>88627

That's not a claim. The "we are all one" is true. We are a singular being existing beyond all of this. the Ain Soph. We differentiate to create this illusion of separation. All of it, plant, animal, mineral, spiritual, etc. is just us pretending to be separate.

It doesn't make the illusion less substantial, less complicated, or any easier to solve and escape though. But part of the path of return is becoming aware of the fact that we are indeed all one, even while believing we are separate entities.
