/sunflower/ - Sunflower

Any questions?

>>105

For the start up part of the session you don't need to close your eyes as long as you can visualize and receive images and interactions. During the "dive" part of the session when being lead on the tour, you may find it easier to follow along if sitting down in an armchair with head support and eyes closed, or lying down. After the intense part of the visit there will usually be a cool down part of returning to the gate and some leisure interaction, during which it's suitable to write down important things from the guided part.

During the first visit or before you've made your own local body, you may need to be able to go deeper into a half trance state than later when you have your own body. When you have your own body from the corresponding world, you will be more or less forced to use it when entering, and as this will locate your spirit to this body, your focus and awareness has automatically shifted. You can still control your human physical body to move from your computer, handling your phone etc, it's not a trance making you immobile physically.

You'll get it when you experience it.

When visiting Gensokyo you will find yourself in any suitable kind of form, which may be anything from a yokai to a human witch or an animal like a fox or cat. There are few restrictions here, as long as your mentality matches theirs.

Japari Park requires an anthropomorphic animal form, which will represent your personality. This form is not likely to carry over to Gensokyo, so you may find yourself appearing as two different kinds of animals.

I performed the Gensokyo visit and it worked smoothly. Linking up was intantaneous and I was aware of at least one other person by the table.

Here follows my notes from the visit:

Flandre picks me up by the gate and we fly over a sunny forest, landing in a field of tall grass. We run through the grass and reach a huge stone. We climb onto it and start running along what appears to be an old stone wall or road raised above the surroundings. We reach the end and walk through a stone portal. On the other side is a huge dark valley with swamps and mist. It's a steep drop on the other side and we fly through the cold mist reaching a small forest clearing. There inside is a magic field protecting a magic circle with some stones raised around it. Flandre picks up a big leather bag from the middle of the circle and empties it on the ground, revealing a large white crystal ball. We sit down on each side of the ball and use it to produce a small crystal ball based on our own energy. We each make one. I put mine in a small leather bag carried in a string around my neck.

We return to the stone gate and halfway back, Flandre leaves the stone road to take a shortcut through the grass. We get attacked by goblins sending pointed logs flying through the air and landing all around us in perfect rows. Flandre says she's wanted to do this for a long time and uses her white crystal ball to destroy the goblins. We then continue to the village and go back to Flandre's home, which is on the second floor of a small house by a cobblestone street. We enter the room direction from outside by a staircase on the outside of the house. Alice Margatroid comes for a visit and we have tea. After this I'm lead back to the entry gate by Alice. We fly high up into the air standing on brooms. I ask why we use brooms and Alice tells me it's faster, she says she wanted to show me the view of the city and the world of Gensokyo. We look at the world from high up in the sky and then Alice drops me off by the gate.

Japari Park visit 7 feb 2020

Some of the girls from Whitechapel joined this session.

We land in the same place as before. It's a sandy area by a stream, with grass and some reed around it. The place is somewhat elevated from the surroundings, there are large boulders lying around and waist high shrubs growing. Serval meets me and we climb up a hill into a cave which is a tunnel leading upwards. We exit on the top of the hill at a plateau with grass and a view over the park. Mountains and water can be seen in the distance. We climb up on some large stones raised like a dolmen. We sit down on the flat surface of the stone which is warm from the sunlight. Serval starts drawing a circle with symbols inside using red mud from a small glass jar. Otter joins us and sits down on my left. Serval is across on the other side of the circle. We form a triangle by placing one finger each on the circle. A large pink diamond shaped energy formation appears in the air above the circle. I see clear and lifelike memory images from a city, which appears to be from a past life. We end what we are doing and Serval erases the circle, which has now dried and returns to dirt. Something has changed within me and I now have a red tattoo on my left forearm similar to the red circle. Caracal meets up and takes me on a tour to her cave. After this we return to the sandy landing area, where everyone else is gathering. We return and end the session.

>There is a reason why commonly baths and stuff like that are seperated for men and women.

So far it seems there are only females living in Gensokyo, visitors if looking at themselves will also find themselves in a female form, so you can relax.

>it would be good to include what you think about them and what you learned or something like that. And maybe any negative stuff like doubts or fears that may have arisen during the sessions.

For me the sessions have been guided tours with a purpose. Each visit has had a symbolic meaning in the events and I've been given a grimoire or magic artifact as a result. They somehow aid my personal development. The same rule seems to go here as with angels; the libraries of Gensokyo only open to those who can understand a specific book, and by helping a visitor, this book becomes available to the locals as well. They are often mere keepers of knowledge which they cannot access.

The experiences for me have been completely positive. Some other participant earlier reported finding Gensokyo to be a scary place with creepy stalking girls giggling but hiding out of sight and unnamed monsters in the woods.

This may be a matter of your compatibility. If you are let inside this way the world overall can't be hostile to you since the gate is safely shut and won't easily open, so a scary experience must have something to do with your own way of interpreting things in my opinion.

Feel free to try it yourself and see!

>>144

>in a weird dream I had even before this board opened that felt very real and was of the "special" kind, with which you just know they mean something more than usual, I can't help but be sure that I already was in Gensokyo once. It was a very cool and pleasant dream and lots of fun.

Dreams are a way to receive communication so at least they're showing you something. Maybe you're just not ready. Were you able to at least meet Yuuka by the table? Try playing around with the artifacts provided to tune in more.

>Maybe I'm just too degenerate to make this work

Read on and we'll see. Contemporary values don't apply here.

>>145

>But it did feel negative as in dirty energy, so I wanted to convey that negativity.

>I work with all kinds of beings, and most things out there (or rather “down here on Earth”) are rather fucked up. I have no negative attitude towards that in principle.

Without saying too much there are actually two people in the group with a crooked spine irl, and this has shown on their astral appearance. But I didn't see any of them by the table, I only saw one other who looked kind of regular. I wouldn't describe myself as tall, crooked or ugly physically or astrally, but if your vision is a reflection of your own values and perspective, showing you things in a symbolic manner from your own view, maybe that's how you'd see me?

Let's just bring this up, we shouldn't be hypocrites here. We're dealing with yokais and real witchcraft. Just looking at the general lore we can see the meaning of this at once:

https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Gensokyo

(also the screencap)

It's openly stated that yokais eat humans and this is present in the games early on as well. Sakuya being originally human would then engage in cannibalism.

You can bash the church for killing witches and that's right to do so in my opinion since they were attacking a functional and ancient occult practice. But we shouldn't hide the fact that witchcraft often does involve human sacrifices and cannibalism. It's not pretty from a modern view. The Order of Nine Angles and the Current 218 both mention it openly and are deemed dangerous extremist movements for this reason.

Meanwhile you have liberal atheists defending routine abortions and christians performing the "holy communion" ritual in which they symbolically drink the blood of Jesus - their savior - and eat his flesh.

Starting to see the level of cognitive dissonance in modern society?

The inhabitants of Gensokyo can afford to look cute and pretty, and they can keep a beautiful environment, because they are powerful enough that no one can harm them either way. They don't need to scare someone off by looking evil or monstrous, but the reason for this is that they, in modern human terms, are evil and monstrous, they openly practice witchcraft with no hypocrisy and they eat humans. If you have a problem with this, value wise, anyone agreeing with them would look "dirty and ugly" to you because of your own moralism.

I'm not convinced this is the reason, and maybe you just saw someone else, but it's still meaningful to bring this up.

>>147

>I visualized her but I think she had no life of her own, that means it was only just visualization

The treshold issue here could be that your visualization wasn't "open" enough and unintenionally included a fixed personality which didn't match the real Yuuka. When I meet new entities I use the attitude as when meeting a person I don't know (this may not be how people normally do but anyway) which means to project a positive view based on their appearance and giving them at least a chance to confirm this view. If the person at all has any of the positive qualities I projected in my image of them, they'll be glad to play along. If the person doesn't have any of those qualities, and they have others, they'll then correct your image by showing who they really are.

It comes off as saying

"Hello, I think I know you from somewhere, you're that [inserts positive features] person, right?"

If that was all wrong, at least you showed them you're willing to see them in a good light, so then they'll correct you and say

"Maybe I just look like someone you know, I'm actually good at [insert actual positive features]."

If the other person really has no positive qualities at all, well then maybe you should end the interaction anyway.

This is one reason anime style images work well with entity interaction, because they usually show them in a positive way.

It's a new week and two new slots for sessions will be open, one for Gensokyo and one for Japari Park.

Follow the instructions above and post your notes by the end of the week for discussion.

>I have daemons set up to instantly kill me if anything messes with my head

>your Innermost will basically suffer the tollbooth tax of a murder

This post has a faint scent of insane asylum. Feels just like good old fringe. So nostalgic…

>>164

>I'll ask any unrelated questions on a more appropriate thread, likely tomorrow.

I'll be waiting for it.

>I have daemons set up to instantly kill me if anything messes with my head, so your Innermost will basically suffer the tollbooth tax of a murder.

???????

Leaving aside the obvious lack of logic in that statement, you need to understand a few things:

Taking part in these sessions is for your spiritual growth. This means you need to work on your mind, and the entities you interact with will help you with this, because they see it as a possible investment. They will mess with your head, to raise your awareness and point out your flaws. You're inviting them to do this in a controlled setting by taking part here.

About the karma stuff, you're basically threatening man eating witches that you'll kill yourself. The law of threefold return and other karmic stuff doesn't apply here.

I cast lethal hexes with no negative feedback because I don't submit to this kind of thinking. The idea that your actions would bring negative results implies you somehow think you're doing something wrong and still go through with it. Don't do something if you think it's wrong, it's pretty simple.

The girls have already neutralized your demons for your safety, so feel free to take part!

Gensokyo 14/2 2020

I land in the clearing and am clearly aware of my shape being that of Sakuya. I run a bit on my own and then I fly quickly forward along the road leading into town in an upright position. Flandre suddenly appears from a road to the right which is very "black" and has a "depleted" feeling.

She leads me onto this road to a house which seems to be her house. Everything looks more real now than earlier visits and the "cartoonish" feeling is gone. I see different magical artifacts in the house, among them voodo dolls. Inside the house is the same feeling of blackness and the smell of moist earthen floor.

Flandre draws some kind of witch sigil which forms in the air all over the cottage, it looks "extreme" and "violent" and forms into long lines of dark energy as if someone had cut the air with a knife. It partially looks like a pentagram or the ONA emblem. I also see how the kitsune sigil looks similar to a vampire sigil.

We perform a group exercise (only us two) and I form my magic as a red energy by following the witch sigil. After this I return to the clearing and we end the session.

Japari Park 16/2 2020

Participants: me, a vampire, a poltergeist, a wind nymph, an italian, one Whitechapel girl.

We link up and are lead to the landing area by Owl. At once we are picked up by birds and fly in a group towards the large volcano "Sando Star." We sit on the birds' backs in the same way as you would sit on a horse or similar.

We land on a flat partially seethrough floor by the top of the volcano, but about one meter below the edge on the inside. In the middle is an opening where a "flame" of magical energy is escaping. We sit down in a circle around this flame and join hands. Through this circle and the flame, a personal type of energy is drawn up from inside, which is formed into a pink field of energy in the lower abdomen area (dantian). This field represents the individual characteristics of each participant and how they're being opened up to become an energy which peacefully cooperates with everyone else, which is the the meaning of being a "Friend. We can after this learn the characteristics of others through their essence, and for each type learned a tattoo appears on the body, corresponding to the characteristics learnied.

We return to the landing area and end the session.

>>214

My overall opinion so far is positive, since my last proper attempt at AP was around 5 years ago, and I doubt I've done it more than three times in total, if memory serves. The constructs, or artifacts provided certainly help with perceiving everything, and having a guide ensures nothing significant is missed.

I like how the format includes a 20 minute time limit, as it compresses your visit to the most important points of interest. You only really have time for a handful of meaningful interactions, and this way you can remember them in full, and focus on interpreting their meanings much more deeply afterwards.

When it comes to the world of Gensokyo itself, there were a few issues with my perception, mostly to do with my own subconscious biases. For example, the city I arrived in appeared to be made entirely of gray stone buildings, much like the city I live in currently. From what I read afterwards, the architecture should actually be mostly wooden, in traditional Japanese fashion.

Again, the differences were mostly in the specific flavour of my perception, and anyone informed on how the Astral and other Internal worlds function, will understand that you need a LOT of detachment and emotional mastery to perceive anything objectively. The physical world is also like this, but in subtler ways, pic related.

Both in my preceding dream of the place, and the visit session, I saw quite a few people going about their business. I had the sense the majority were visitors as well, and I'd say there must be at least 50 people using the world. General attire was very stylized, in what I can only describe as an "anime witch/sorcerer" look. Lots of pointy hats and colorful accents.

Overall, I'd rate it a solid 8/10, but I'm sure my experience would improve a second time, since I'd like to see places outside the city. I fully intend on participating again this coming week, if the slot is still open.

>>219

Right. This is a misunderstanding, I meant slots as in two new sessions because it's a new week. A reminder.

We are only doing one session each week for each place to make it work with the time correction crystal. So it's a "time slot" not a restriction of participants. Theoretically any number of people can join, but only once per week for each world.

Come to think of it I had an experience of a large yellow snake pressing up on my left side (its head was as large as mine almost) after the Japari Park session. It was moving and lively with its tongue breathing and felt "funny" in some way. It looked like it would be a poisonous snake but it felt very friendly. At the time it didn't really stick to my mind, I just assumed it was kundalini related, but I figured I'd ask if anyone else experienced something like this?

It's now monday which means a new week!

The sessions for this week are open until sunday evening. Your notes from the sessions should be posted sometime before the end of the week, preferably during the weekend so as not to create a bias within those who have yet to do their session and can't remain neutral after reading someone else's notes.

You can do either one of them or both, it's your choice!

>Gensokyo, the world of the eastern way (touhou)

or

>Japari Park, the world of animal girls also known as Friends

Both worlds offer a path to ascension within their own field of knowledge and a wide range of ancient magical teachings for its members and allies. The sessions are free because this is treated as an investment, if you learn from them you will benefit their worlds later on.

Anyone can join as long as you are compatible and friendly!

>>226

I didn't experience anything exactly like this, but I did notice a few strange things after the session, mostly in the form of an unusually large amount of energy parasites. I dealt with them the usual way, which was effective as always. Thinking the problem solved, I went to sleep, and, thinking about how hindering all my physical drives and instincts are, in a slumber state, an almost robotic voice asked if I wanted them taken away. I accepted the help of this unknown, potentially dangerous entity, and went to sleep.

The problems only got worse afterwards, and rapidly. While I noticed a complete lack of physical temptation for anything, I was unable to sleep, and partially even to feel tired. This was a problem, because after three days I still got the mental instability that comes with sleep deprivation. Naturally, I took extreme measures, filling my bedroom with sulphur fumes, then taking out my wand for the first time in a couple of months. I was able to find a foreign entity lodged inside my subconscious, and managed to keep it from getting away, killing it for good instead, then re-cycling its energy to make sure no left-over intent remains. I still had corrupted memories afterwards, but I managed to replace them without losing any information, which was nice. No massive memory gaps spanning multiple years, this time.

I'm not sure this incident was due to the session, but it happened exactly after it.

Pic unrelated.

>>234

Diseased and deformed babies and fetuses are often a subconscious representation of seminal waste, and sexual inequity.

I hope you're stocked up on sulphur, frien. Fumes released from its sublimation over time make short work of these parasites, but I'd burn it for instant effect.

Pic very related.

>>236

Depends on what you're trying to do. Masturbation, as well as any kind of seminal release, forces a downward flow of energy, sapping your emotional and rational energy, cutting off the influence of your conscience, and developing the infernal, qlipothic faculties. It's entirely beneficial to the development of the animal mind, and a pretty central component of black magic. The Drupka clan even has techniques to recover the infernalized semen, demonizing the mind even more. Neat stuff.

If you're in any way inclined toward spiritual development, immortality, and not being a literal husk of a person, masturbation is pretty bad, though.

Just remember that these parasites spawn naturally around masturbators, and actually encourage constant temptation, in the same way gastric bacteria give you cravings. If you've been doing it regularly, I recommend you do the sulphur thing, as it prevents a 'relapse'.

This is getting pretty off-topic for this thread, so I'm saging this post.

>>241

That's pretty much ideal. Even if you do masturbate, you probably want the energy for specific purposes, so not having any larvae is still important.

I'm curious about why they were in Gensokyo now, though. I'll either do my session later on today, or tomorrow morning, so I'll make sure to investigate. I'll AP wearing a paperboy hat, so I can enter full detective mode. I am fully prepared, and ready for whatever I may find.

>>241

Looking at the images of your descriptions

>>232

>>234

I don't think these are parasites or even real beings at all, rather it looks like it would be the effect of some kind of artifact like a mirror used by someone in Gensokyo to show you something in your own mind in a form that would make it easier for you to spot the issue with it. That's the feel I get.

I'm well aware of my own dark and violent sides (mostly past lives' stuff) and it's constantly with me so they wouldn't have a reason to show it to me.

>>243

That does make sense, since I directly accessed the library's archival crystal, the (at the very least) perceived entities manifested themselves well after the session, and responded to the usual measures against parasites. It's possible they were there all along, and through some effect I was better able to perceive them.

After some consideration, I believe the offer to cut off my physical drives was the Guardian of the Threshold manifesting itself, and had nothing to do with the mental corruption, which was likely there all along. I ended up contracting that very same Guardian to help get rid of it without losing any memories.

Still, unannounced enhancement of the consciousness, be it by an entity or artifact, technically violates my NAP, so I'll use Skeletor as an avatar until the end of this week, as retaliation.

>>244

>violates my NAP

Principles are the budget alternative police force of cheap dictators. Don't keep things like that in your mind, it'll only make you look silly.

And they won't protect you.

>>245

I was only joking, friend. I'm actually planning to do just that- destroy any principles I might have had. I assume that's what red light districts are for.

I'll still avatarfag Skeletor, though, just because I want to, and there's not a single authority in this world that can stop me from doing it.

>>253

I've noticed something of the sort during my first visit as well. It was just a hint of mischevious and only slightly malicious intent while I was taking in the sights, but it was noted.

I've just finished my session for this week as well, after writing the above paragraph. I'm going to share my notes at the end of this week, but, I did ask Yuuka about the baby thing before we started, and it seems she saw nothing of the sort during that session. Her impression is that it might have been entirely in that anon's perception (not sure if you're the same poster), possibly induced by something outside Gensokyo.

If the parasites are actual, energy larvae, the diseased babies may have been induced by them either being removed, or simply noticed. I can't comment further without directly observing the anon, but I'm pretty sure if I scan a spooky imageboard wizard, I'll get killed in some horrible way by them.

Also please don't post notes before the week is over, spooky imageboard wizard.

>>256

I've left those parts out because it's just social stuff to them and not really important but they can get pretty intimate if you're ok with it. They'll go by your own values and will stay in the role you expect for the most part, only revealing the side of themselves you can accept. The less prejudiced your mind gets the more truthful the world you see will be.

>>253

>We sat at a wooden table and Yuuka, with a huge mouth, swallowed me whole.

They do eat humans, as the wiki says ;^)

It's my understanding that the touhous are just like humans, they have the side you see physically which is all cute and normal, then they have the darker hidden side behind, which is the shadow of the human mind or what's on the astral behind a person. When you go there you'll see it all in full view if you look. They look pretty because they like to, but they also often have a monstrous side, manifesting large sharp teeth and a meter long tongue and other details which would be scary to most people. If you would be scared by that, they won't show you. I suppose that's the difference between civilized beings and the monsters scaring people, the civilized know how to behave to not cause any culture shocks.

>>257

This explains a surprising lot of my session for this week. I was genuinely unsure whether I even performed the visit correctly due to how different the experience was.

Here's another pre-Gensokyo snippet from my notes, after talking to her in the waiting room. My own insight and investigation skills scare me.

"The other question I had, which was about her mischevious, if well-hidden aspect, yielded an answer along the lines "It's only natural for yokai."

I'm genuinely surprised I could hear that, given that in the previous session I heard all names and foreign terms as static. It seems all these creatures are naturally on the playful-murderous side, and Yuuka is probably incredibly well-tempered for a 'yokai'."

>>258

The youkai are essentially demons, although in Japanese animism there are a lot of nuances. I suppose you could compare them to djinn.

See under “Concept”: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yōkai

Anime and manga does seem to be full of them for some reason. I have noticed them in the work of Junji Ito. Just reading one of his short stories will get you in contact with monstruous and fascinating things. Maybe something similar happened with Lovecraft.

>>257

>They do eat humans, as the wiki says ;^)

Was there a point or a deeper meaning to this?

>>260

>Was there a point or a deeper meaning to this?

Yes, and Yuuka brought it up in a mischievous manner by swallowing anon. There are so many aspects of this, that this little act became a multifaceted statement in my eyes, on more levels than I can explain right now.

One of my spirit waifus who's a vampire was born 439 years ago and was a witch in Japan during her life. She was cast out from the village for practicing witchcraft and lived in the woods where she seduced, killed and ate lone travellers. She followed the only way she knew, which turned it all into ritual sacrifices of a rather high level. Her magic power increased and her ritual knife became an artifact of power also exising on the astral. After dying she became a yokai and formed a coven with other cannibalistic witches, now referred to as vampires.

Through these acts she left the reincarnation cycle permanently and remain on the astral as an entity of the kind known in japanese folklore.

This is what many yokais are like. They respect magic ability and power and they like themselves, they like being pretty, they like other pretty beings, but they don't have human morality.

It really can't be overstated how important this last bit is: a lot of the things which give real power on the astral are almost always shunned by human society. You think people with religious beliefs are being attacked and persecuted today? Really? They practically rule the world. Try practicing real witchcraft and you'll see the meaning of persecution. Breaking the human consensus and hypocrisy doesn't mean to act according to existing societal values and ideas of "right and wrong."

Really breaking them would indeed result in things like Jesus being crucified; what he did counts as a witch's sacrificial ritual unintentionally - he sacrificed himself. Christians won't agree but my opinion is that christianity is like any occult practice, they draw their power from sacrifices and it only works for this reason.

>>264

Go and ask? AFAIK you can visit the pavilion thing at any time, independently of the 'guide' sessions, so there's nothing stopping you from popping over and asking her directly.

A bit of earnest conversation is worth more than a thousand years of speculation.

Pretty sure BO isn't sharing a hive mind with Yuuka, so anything they can do, you can do yourself in 5 minutes. Worst case scenario in any situation, you'd find out the being is entirely hostile and out to get you, and you'd take appropriate measures. Perhaps the reason you're often in the dark is that you rarely search for the light.

>>262

>they don't have human morality

Neither do we, by 90% of historical standards. Morals change constantly, and are closer to conventions than to rules. You can often distinguish between morals and ethics by the reaction they instill in you. A moral conflict induces stress and fear, since breaking moral laws can lead to social exclusion and punishment. An ethical conflict usually doesn't happen, since ethics manifest as an intuitive 6th sense, so you either 'get' them and follow them naturally, or you don't perceive them at all.

I'd describe the feeling of the ethical sense as very alike to clairvoyance, you simply understand at a supra-conscious level that something is ethical or not. And very often, morally outrageous things are ethical, and ethical things are morally reprehensible.

I'd say virtually all people alive right now don't even know ethics exist, and simply equate the term to morals.

>they practically rule the world

This is a very complex issue, different parts of the world are ruled by different coagulations of pseudo-esoteric currents and groups. In the UK, Scotland is controlled entirely by Freemasons, while Britain is owned by the Jewish banking cabal. In the music industry, you get many songs with deep, esoteric undertones, and many which are just pure materialism, and designed to keep people asleep. Witchcraft, and authentic left-hand practice, is an easy way to get yourself killed, if you're not careful. So is right-hand cultivation.

The Templars were all hunted down after cultivating the Alchemical gold, even though they had control over a big chunk of the world's finances, and had managed to gather a comprehensive collection of all the world's mystical and occult knowledge.

I'd say this trend, of groups and organizations from both paths being erased, is actually due to the natural will of the world.

The Demiurge is actually planet Earth's super-consciousness, and, like any living organism, it doesn't want its cells transcending their function. Humans have a very well defined role in converting energy in the Earth's organism, and, while one or two transcendent souls leaving the cycle of re-incarnation isn't a problem, a large group doing the same becomes a cancer, and is dealt with as ruthlessly as we deal with our own cells going rogue.

Unconscious, automatic people, act naturally towards this end, without even realizing.

I'd also like to clarify for anyone reading, that left-hand and right-hand development are extremely different in method and end goal, but they're basically identical to the will of the world, in the way they remove cells from their natural function.

>>267

Space is created naturally and automatically by the process of individuation. Space existed in an abstract form since the first "other", or chaos, became individuated.

Time as a fundamental principle is based on the law of gyration, on the music of the spheres. The spheres are the 7 principles descended from the Absolute.

By your definition you might as well consider the acausal principle, the Absolute, to be the Demiurge. That doesn't make sense, since there is nothing to escape into beyond that. If the Demiurge is being itself, you might as well call it God.

>I can't hear

>I can barely see

I've quickly thrown together this sigil to help with that. Stare at it for a few seconds, then mentally chant "parte" before your next AP exercise.

It mobilizes your energy in order to separate your emotional intelligence from the physical body, substituting the astral body for the physical one to some extent, and placing your consciousness in control of the physical senses (both internal and external, since AP perceptive problems are more often internal in origin).

>>272

Generally speaking, if they're after energy, they'll hover around your physical location.

Group AP like this, though, does bring its benefits. Many groups have central hubs like this, with various services offered, and the whole point is to get people using them. The attention creates/strengthens a central egregore, be it the location itself or more generally just the group's "identity", which is very much an egregore, and strengthens magic within the group the more it is developed.

Since the pavilion is accessible directly, and has several points at which you synchronize yourself with other members, and offers services, it's likely an astral egregore, and the more people that use it, the more useful it becomes. In this case the end goal is likely to get more people visiting that Gensokyo place. as well as the other one, since they are linked to the "succubus collective" mentioned once in a while, and likely furthers their end goal in some way.

>>273

The Succubus Collective is not involved with this in any specific way other than me being their prophet. Although they do want to create a super religion including all spirit females, so the two worlds we work with here are to be incorporated in the collective later on through some kind of pact, if it hasn't been formally done already. I don't get involved with the details.

The egregore here is intentionally formed to be open and useful and to act as a learning ground for occultists. It's resting on the top of the Tower of Babel, which is the astral formation of all the existing levels of the Elysian fields when viewed from outside.

The modern interpretation of this old testament/torah story is completely off, it's been understood in reverse.

While you are within human physical reincarnation, you pass the Elysian fields in between incarnations, and depending on how you acted in your life you move up or down between the floors. If you drop down all the way you are disqualified from behing reborn as a physical human and will be an animal or plant or an object like a rock. If you on the other hand move all the way up and transcend humanity, you will be moved to spiritual reincarnation or turn fully immortal and have a stable form with no periodic reform.

The yokais were are dealing with are all entities who ascended humanity and are no longer part of the Tower. It doesn't matter that they're violent psychopaths, they still qualified because they moved outside of this structure.

This is what I meant when I told anon before that this, the Sunflower Project, is much more than it seems from the mere visuals of the board, or even the visuals of the meeting room. We're doing this here to pick up the few people who can make it out during this period of a few years. After this, if all goes according to plan, the Collective will take over and the new religion will spread, but that won't be the same thing still. It will be something more like christianity in the sense of being a massive soul farming scheme, even fewer people will be able to ascend later than on this board currently. That's just how it is, the universe creates gatherings for important people and they show up.

I made pizza and as I just started eating I began having quite disturbing and violent thoughts out of nowhere, until I finished the first slice. I said to myself

>what is this, it's as if I didn't even eat that slice at all!

Rumia then appeared sitting on my lap with a mischievous smile making a typical yokai joke

>you want some 'pizza' for that pizza?

then turning herself extremely young and cute and moving around on my lap.

I didn't get it until I finished eating and realized if I had eaten this much under normal circumstances I'd feel like I ate too much, but this time, it felt ok. Rumia somehow physically possessed me and ate the first pizza slice (I do allow possesion since they're friendly). The extreme thoughts entering my mind was her! It was real nasty stuff like the worst kind of gory cartel vids posted on imageboards, people being tortured in extreme ways etc, things I never think about. I then recalled talking to one of the japanese vampires and them saying they see the worst kinds of violence all the time because everything humans do is visible to them from the astral so these things are nothing to them.

But all other things aside, I think that perspective explains why they think the way they do, humans pretending that humanity isn't violent as a race are pretty naive and sheltered. If you mention morality and laws to them they'll ignore you completely because it'll only look silly to them. "Humans kill each other in violent ways all the time. Morality? What a joke!"

>>275

I don't think a new super-religion will happen during this current epoch, since we're approaching the end of the Aryan race. The Age of Aquarius has been, in previous ages, the climax of all influences and astral tendencies experienced over the rest of the age.

I believe the religious scene won't change much, with existing groups simply developing into their final conclusions. We can already see this with various churches taking their previous tendencies to new extremes.

The best way to capitalize on this age, I believe, would be through small, secretive cults. If there's any age in which you can hold massive human sacrifices and crystallize intent into blood-consuming omnicidal super-entities, it's the Age of Aquarius. That's pretty much how Atlantis ended, as well.

>including all spirit females

Afaik all souls are invariably female by their nature.

>if you drop down all the way you will be an object like a rock

I am fully prepared and willing to accept that destiny.

>it doesn't matter they're violent psychopaths, they still qualified

pic related.

Heh, initiate.

It's now weekend in the majority of the world, so here are my notes from the week prior.

I've opted to place them in a pastebin, since they're getting fairly large, and I don't want to take up all screen-space on this thread.

Ah, Junji ito. I love his mangas. In fact I think his mangas are the best of their genre. My favourite work of his is Tomie. A very inspiring character, I have a strange fascination with her.

>Just reading one of his short stories will get you in contact with monstruous and fascinating things.

I can only agree, it can instantly hook you and there is the feeling that there is more to his stuff than mere manga. It's the same as with playing Touhou.

Junji Itos stuff also came to me just after receiving the vampire spell just like Touhou and my overall fascination with Japan and it's culture (and also Babymetal with wich I cannot help but believe there is also more than just kawaii metal music). I wonder how it's all connected. I believe there are strange workings going on. After getting the spell it all came into my mind and into my life and now I'm reading about all of it here all over again.

For this visit (and the last) I attempted a way to get a more natural syncing, which seems to take some practice to get right. I waited until late night when really sleepy to enter an actual dream state instead of being in a waking state of controlled trance to let the images just flow freely. I lay down in bed, went to the meeting room and linked up, then fell asleep into the gate as if dropping to the floor from standing. The style of the visuals was lifelike with no trace of cartoon, but after the initial scene of the forest and Rumia as a small girl, I was pulled in very deeply and quickly and from my perception blacked out and was pulled back almost at once by the alarm. At first I only had an unexplained feeling of being "motivated" and positive and a vague awareness of having had long conversations with different touhous in the forest. I had to actively reach in and recall what had taken place after.

The reason is quite easy to explain, the direct connection is free from human concepts. Unless you actively "interpret" it with your human mind as you go along, it just flows on at an extreme speed with no limitations and your human side doesn't pick it up because of the change of speed. Alternatively it can just be explained as an effect of the time correction.

Gensokyo 21-2 2020

I am led to the edge of a thick spruce forest by a five year old wearing pink winter overalls. A scene image in anime style showing Rumia in front of a dark forest appears.

When I later recall the memories from the visit I see a wooden palisade with a watchtower and a passage with an office for control of entry and exit. Many kinds of forest nymphs live on the inside.

I meet three of them in large bird's nest in a pine tree outside the palisade and share my magic essence with them. In return I'm given a ring. The three nymphs change their appearance and their dress to that of a mahou shojo style similar to Moetan.

Haven't shared the previous experiences and I won't because of various reasons, I'll just say that this week was the first time I went off with Yuuka after entering Gensokyo though it wasn't like I had much of a choice. She grabbed my arm and dragged me with her to a different place instantly after entering. She then showed a more monstrous side and acted accordingly. Afterwards she said she wanted to see how I would react to it,but I remained calm and there weren't any problems. More happened but these are the parts I wanted to share for now.

I've left out the details here because they could be misinterpreted and sharing them wouldn't be useful for anyone anyway. All I can say is the Friends have a very functional way of performing magic which is extremely powerful. This'll be a short note of an important step.

Japari Park 23/2 2020

Alpaca leads us to the landing area, I follow her into a cave located a bit upstream behind the area. Fennec, Lesser Panda, Tsuchinoko and some members of PPP joins us. We perform a ritual in which the collected power of all participants gather in my abdominal area and opens up all of my body's meridians at once, as elixir is said to do in qigong. We return and gather by the landing area to close the session.

It's a new week and the sessions are open!

You can do one group visit to Gensokyo and one to Japari Park throught the instructions in this thread. Post your notes sometime during the weekend before sunday ends, so as to not disturb those who haven't done their session yet.

Visiting Japari Park is mostly relying on your ability to reach there, which takes energy and direction. Doing this as a group will both make it easer to build up the energy needed for the travel and it will make it easier to find the location as we have a deal with them by which they send a guide to pick us up.

Gensokyo is more difficult to reach because of the double barrier blocking both entry and exit from the human word. Humans intending to keep yokais out created a barrier which stops around 70% of yokais from passing. The barrier isn't extremely strong and can be forced through by a single skilled entity or three average witches linking to form a magic triangle. This has created a market for human goods inside Gensokyo, keeping the prices up and for this reason the stronger members have no intention of bringing the human barrier down. They're making money off the now rare goods being brought in by themselves, and want to keep it this way. Among humans today only a handful have the ability to gather the power needed to pass this barrier, and few of them even want to enter as they'd become prey the moment they set foot in there.

The yokais played along and created their own barrier to keep the few hostile and skillfull humans out, who could have broken in to cause harm. The barrier on the Gensokyo side works by the attitude of the being attempting to enter. It feeds off hostility and will become increasinly stronger the more hostility the intruder carries in them. On the other hand, those sympathetic of the world will easily sneak past and enter.

When we link up and let Yuuka guide us, most of the energy is used to brute force through the human barrier. The rest is a matter of attitude. By linking up our minds are syncronized and hostilities can be minimized. This opens the yokai side of the barrier.

Upon entry we are treated as paying guests or as recruits, and will be protected by a guide during the stay for as long as needed.

You are free to attempt personal visits to either world anytime you want, but keep the above in mind when doing this!

>>373

If the human barrier is meant to keep yokai out why would we need to break through it? As far as I'm aware yokai means monster/demon.

>>400

To me that's proof the barrier is working. When you can no longer sense Gensokyo you will not attempt to interact with them in any way, you will not give them attention or energy and the humans who created (and who are maintaining it) have achieved their goal of keeping yokais out of the human world by purging them from your mind.

This place itself is resting on the top of the Babel's tower so it's easy to jump from here to anywhere mentally. If you didn't come on here first you wouldn't find it so easy to pass the barrier even with help from Yuuka and the group.

Eventually your conviction comes from yourself and your own experiences, you have to make your own choices on what to invest time and effort into.

It's saturday now so here are the notes for Gensokyo.

Entered Gensokyo on a mountaintop. Yuuka was lightly teasing me but then cut her own finger and wanted me to lick it. Reason for this unclear. We flew from the mountain over a forest and descended into a clearing where we dove into a small lake. After getting out of the lake and sitting against a tree I saw that there were a lot of fairies. They seemed to leave us alone. Before the time was up she suprised me and took me to a/the scarlet mansion. There wasn't much time left so she only wanted to introduce me to Remilia and Sakuya before the session was over.

Gensokyo 29/2 2020

I am directly picked up by Flandre who is partially dressed like Reimu. We walk away on to a narrow road covered in tree bark and dead leaves. The sun is filtered through the branches of the trees. We stop behind a rock and do some warm ups before walking further along to road to a clearing. In the middle of the clearing a large bonfire is burning. It's very hot and its color is white and yellow. We walk inside the fire and stay there to be cleansed. I can feel the white hot fire on my body but it isn't painful. Outside the fire, yokais are standing in a circle around it.

We move forward along a corridor inside the fire and reach a small study room. Flandre brings a book from a shelf which is about the concept "suki", love. After some studies we are done and walk back out again. The fire suddenly cools off and the flames dissappear leaving only a few flames no bigger than a large candle arising from the grass. All the yokais are now applauding our success and asking us to show them what we learned. After this we return to the clearing by the portal.

It's a new week and we are once again organizing sessions for Gensokyo and Japari Park. Follow the instructions posted earlier in the thread to participate!

Seeing as there hasn't been a lot of interest in the group sessions here, we may call them off after evaluating this week. The purpose of holding them as open group sessions itself is to aid those who can't organize on their own, but if no one is using the opportunity there is no point. The core members here can already do this by linking with their spiritual companions in their own time.

The artifact shared for this purpose will still be available and usable even if we don't officially schedule a session, so nothing changes there.

I was lamenting my inability to draw the visuals I see, particularly my inability to draw Remilia as I saw her, but I very quickly found a picture of her in a very close approximation to my own image of her. Two differences, one in the color of the eye, the other in the absence of a red jewel ornamented on her dress. Her eyes are a much more striking bright red.

Also interesting that one of the posters here meets with Flandre more than Remilia, where it's the exact opposite for me. Flandre is something I have to remind myself exists, otherwise I forget of her existence. Might have something to do with my extreme leanings towards intellectual pursuits rather than social ones, I've only ever interacted with Gensokyo out of curiosity rather than real interest in the inhabitants. Remilia isn't bad at spell craft. Posting in this thread since it was an entertaining read.

I'm aiming to do sessions for both places shortly. Anyone interested can join by using the time correction crystal.

>>685

When should the session notes be posted?

Haven't done this for a while but just had a vision of Flandre (despite never having met her during the sessions, only dreams) where she was sad that it's been a while and that she prepared something special for me but I didn't return.

There was too much text and I already shorted it as best as I could without rewriting the whole thing. To the pastebin it goes.

Gensokyo 28/3 2020

I arrive directly to the clearing in the forest. The trees look more ancient and realistic than before, also darker. I am picked up by Flandre and Tewi who lead me to a place with two small cottages. They dress me up as Marisa and ask me to watch the fire which is burning in the yard between the two cottages. I see some kind of tool inside the fire but can't understand what it is. It looks a bit like a hayfork. I enter a state of trance as a result of staring into the fire and strange scenes appear in my mind, of a nature which makes it impossible for me to retell them using language. I now understand the meaning of the hayfork and its magic is formed in my mind. It appears as a dark red tattoo of a hayfork with two points aimed downwards, placed below my navel. Reimu leads me back to the clearing and the session is over.

Japari Park 29/3 2020

Serval leads me into a large cave which is sealed with two large round, flat stones which are rolled to the right. We pass an outer cave before entering the inner cave. While there we perform a ritual by forming a circuit with me (Snowcat), Serval and Margay. At a later time, Snow Leopard joins along with someone with red fur I do not recognize, possibly a kind of raccoon. I get to learn a kind magic through this. The ritual keeps going for a long time.

It's been over a month since I last participated so I figured it was time to do it again. Here are my notes https://pastebin.com/Y8AGTHeh

In all honesty I don't know what that ritual was for but the pattern of how the candles were laid out reminds me of past life ritual(s), magic circles were involved as well but this one was different. Haven't studied up on magic circles or their dynamics but I assume they're essentially bigger sigils with more preparation.

>>831

Remilia has shown me something similar. "Pour blood out onto the floor and watching as it dissipates and dies, losing the vitality of it's creator." Is what she responded when I asked her. From what I take it it's how normal people view the world, specifically what gensokyo does to abuse this concept. It's deeply linked into the idea of deception. The human mind works off of deception, no truth is without a foundation of lies, the attachments to the points between truth is all we can see, etc etc.

>>834

I'm not very good with metaphors so to my disappointment most of that passes me by.

>>833

Thanks for the insight.

I had a short visit with Japari park. I will keep most of the details short. I met up with Serval and what I believe to be the leader, or the closest thing to an owner, of japari park in the temple. Here I was prompted to make a different version of the energy sharing device. I did so, that device had a very powerful effect. Connecting ourselves to the device, those present except Yuuka, and headed towards the park after the leader towards the library. I had more control over the entire group and felt the need to instead lead them in guidance, for reasons I don't understand, this is something not new put to this extent of clarity, is. We went into a private room and I picked out a book to read. Here lies my reasoning for posting: I was allowed to write down the contents of the book and share them here. I could have done so before, but these words were written with a clarity I only find in dreams. So I did.

On the book of truth. The words on this page will be spoken thus: without lie or error shall they be trusted, without honor and friendship these words be known. The first lie will then be trust.

The text of these books will be read as such. This book made to enforce the bonds of trust, so that endless oblivion will not be spent alone. Then the first truth shall be spoken, that no lie is without falsehood.

This book shall be written and said, so no man should read it. The next falsehood, he who "lies within the bottom of deceit where light has fled and only screams are heard."

On the subject of life, in it's complexities and myriads of shapes, lies the bottom of a swamp eternal.

Within this swamp lies life and death, joy and happiness, friendship and ally.

The first deceit then thus. That man will fight man for goods and honor.

The second deceit thus. That woman shall give birth to beings who bring war.

Let those two be known

>She lead me up the stairs into her room

>Flandre's room

Do the beings running this fake Gensokyo really see themselves as good at it? Or do they purposely stick to drawing in tertiaries because they know the illusion quickly falls apart otherwise?

If anyone feels like joining in this week for easier access I plan on doing some visits. Including to the nekopara.

>>940

>>2326

I'll join in. I don't have much success with telepathy or spirit contact yet but I'll use the additional sigils for that in addition. Maybe you'll be able to see me at the table at least, even that would be a success.

I have performed 2 out of 3 sessions while using the meeting room crystal. I will do the last one and then post my notes here tonight or tomorrow. If anyone wants to join in for this window there is still time.

Nekopara

I land directly into the inner garden, wearing a yukata or similar. Another cat leads me through a gate in a wall. On the other side it is moist and smells of earth and plants, like inside a tropicarium. I see an oni-mask, a red devil, on my right side. It's dark and the atmosphere has an air of something mystical. We arrive at two japanese tea houses. They have platforms on the front with some steps. The cat says they're our houses, and that we can unite them and live together. We perform a ritual on the platform, then the houses are one big house and we are back in the light filled inner garden again. Our house is in the far end, to "this side" and a bit to the left. There's dry grass and some sand in front of the house, and a small dam in between our house and the big house, which has to be passed to enter the garden. The cat refers to the moist garden as "Garden of Creation."

Gensokyo

This time I'm told to perform the visit on my own, using my own power and finding my own way there to pass the barrier. I land in the forest with my back against a vertical rock wall. Below there's sand and smaller stones in an empty lot. I feel a diagonal energy which ends in the point where the ground and the rock meets, inside the 90 degree angle formed there. I decide to fly up the rock wall and land in a higher part of the forest. It seems to be at least 50 - 100 meters higher up, with a view over the pine forest. It's warm and sunny and smells of forest with a mild breeze. A bit further into the sparse pine forest up there is a small log cottage. Chen comes to meet me and invites me. After some socializing I notice Chen has a dagger. I ask to see it, it has a green snake crawling around it in a spiral around the blade. We learn something from each other and my knife gains a new aspect corresponding to Chen's dagger, her dagger gains a new aspect corresponding to my knife.

Japari Park

I arrive together with the group at the usual location, the sandy piece of land with some high grass around it, by the stream. Caracal calls to me: "Snowcat, come with me!" We run outwards and upwards along the mountain until we reach a sandy limestone surface by the far end, which forms a peak. From here we have an overview of the eastern side of the island and see the sea and other islands in the haze further out. We sit down facing each other in north-south direction, I look at Caracal sitting south of me, she looks at me sitting north of her. We sit with legs crossed and hold our palms facing forward towards each other, then we join hands. After this follows a shared meditation with several steps. It ends with an energetic opening of the friend-body, first mine, then Caracal's.

We run back to the landing area and play in the water until it is time to end the session. I gain an insight on how distant and safe the island is.
