"And if it turns out in the end that I have deluded myself in all this? Then the joke will be on me and it will not matter."

Of course it matters, Dumb-Ass. Get with the program. Didn't you watch that film about the Sound of Insects? You know, the Human Mummy Guy who starved himself to death? Wasn't he cool? Existential, even?  He shrunk himself into a prune-penis and eventually evaporated. La-Dee-Da. We all swoon at his death.   

Read Steppenwolf. Your big-man death-wish is going to bite it in Babalon's Eyes. Yes, the desire is a Rubicon. So cross THAT instead of some fey suicide.

Or be a pussy. Doesn't matter to me. I don't have a horse in your race.

But YOU do-!

93,

O-

I wish to add to my above post that it was admittedly written from a reactionary place and I had just this past week dealt with an untimely death that saw me assisting a funeral director with carrying out the body of a person I both knew and loved. My words "Dumb-Ass" and "big-man death-wish" were meant to be as playful as they were "chiding" but I think they may have simply come across as insulting which was not my intent. My impassioned reaction remains as I feel that life is precious and should not be extinguished to follow an idea which may be in error. But I do appreciate your expression of these ideas and willingness to push into them. My view is not the "right one" but it is my view-which got unduly defensive/offensive when encountering yours. Stars colliding in time, perhaps. Either way, my apologies and respect. Hope I haven't derailed what is a truly interesting-and I think important-thread.

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

Ahhh kidneyhawk! A wonderfully refreshing display of real emotion and I thank you for it. My apologies for the slow reply.
I will say that I have no death wish and do not speak of suicide. I love being in the flesh and thrill at every new experience. It is our individual preparation for and greeting of the transition that must be consciously worked to, at least to my way of thinking anyway. Mankinds next great step has to be carrying over one lifes experience to the next. Then we will be progressing? Just like trading the old worn out car in for the new one. As long as we live in this world, we are subject to the laws of ebb and flow, the cycles of life. To overcome the trauma of departure and re-entry, to carry the experience of one life to the next, I think, is taking the next great step. Once we overcome that...just imagine. To no longer think in terms of man but something more. Something which lies at the the core of who we truly are.
It is not my intention to sound like a sanctimonius asshole...but there are just so damn many distractions?
Again I do apologize for apparently leaving this thread hanging, shit happens.

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

I looked into my book and found that someone had been writing some of what I'm trying to say.

Heavy, thick, dark grey clouds roll across the earth. Within those clouds countless flashes of lightening occur, tantalizingly they both thrill
and fear. It is the planet regenerating itself making it possible for life to exist. It is the terrestrial form of the divine fire.
The patient lies on the operating table as the flesh is failing and the process of death begins. The natural rhythmn of the heart fails. Inside
it are cells which discharge electrical impulses which keep the heart beating thus maintaining life. As they fail the doctors bring out the
"paddles" and release a massive electrical charge which re-establishes the cells ability to discharge the electrical impulse necessary for life.
The Divine Fire. It is the sacred spark which lies at our very core...that which we truly are.
Inside the brain, neurons and discharged electrical impulses creat chemical reactions which cause to perceive and experience both that which
appears to be "ourselves" and that which appears to "be" around us. As living human beings we are a divine spark of that heavenly fire contained
in a body of water.
A plastic lawn chair out in the direct sunlight. Sitting in it I run my hands over the arms of it and feel the hairs on my arms raise as the
electrical current travels throughout my body. A product of the Sun, the supreme and visible provider ( at least in this world) of the light,
fire and fire of which we are all just a spark of.
These are just brief descriptions of complex ideas and principles which show who we are in the purest sense. As we exist, here and now, in our
physical bodies of flesh there exists within each and everyone of us sub-atomic particles which link us and stretch back to the very beginning.
Transmitted through the sexual act in an unbroken chain, the divine spark is cast into the womb of space carried by the spermazoon. There is
no end.
Ultimately, to me, what Aleister was getting at and led me to, was this...that by certain actions we may become conscious (of and to) this divine
spark within and by our actions may strengthen it. I believe that with the right and true course of actions, throughtout the course of our lives,
we may, at the final moment of release, through our own unique vibration affect our divine spark marking it in a way so that our experience and
being will carry through the process of transition and into the next life thus realizing our own immortality. We are no longer mere men but come
to the right and true realization that we are god.
As usual with me, I can only say that this is my point of view, nothing more nothing less. I care enough about you to share it with you in hopes
that together we may find our way.
Just to look at...
