How is lysergic acid on a tab of paper an 'engine'? How is a global data-storage/transference system an engine? Crowley's comments on that section ...

Ok, on like, minimum wage I guess or not?

This was a planned temporary stay then back to work in the American movie industry? She wasn't working in Italy, right?

Thanks. 10' means 10 minutes I guess. 'Yel sq' will be Earth Tattva. "First 10 good, regarding square with my right side". I don't understand tha...

Was she ascribed the Liber E exercises specifically? She did all of the pranayama work in there? Does it mention her Dharana breaks?

How did she do?

But Kether and the nine other Sephirah are on each of the four worlds. When you say 'Kether' you mean Atziluth?

Guph, physical body. What, attachments to Ruach? What is that place? Its a movie but whoever wrote it has done their research. It's a...

However, to be blunt, I'd also say that the Tibetans would agree that getting a grip on asana, pranayama Dharana, Banishings, Skrying and the Rising ...

I think you misunderstood what I mean by 'journey'. I meant vis a vis The Tibetan Book of the Dead, the Bardos or planes that the dying person astral...

Astral Projection and Skrying in the Spirit Vision? No, not the last time I checked. Having your journey talked through by a Buddhist monk when you...

When I say the taxman 'takes it' they take at a % of the sum that goes over the threshold. Can we get back to Old Aeon funerals and Pagan funer...

I meant 'taxman'. You're only allowed to leave a specific amount to the next of kin, any over that, the government take it.

No but it's a shrewd move for some specifically if they don't want the tax payer to take their assets that would otherwise have gone to their offsprin...

Sudden is better but not for those who get the news by phone call or being in the same place as them. My friend dropped dead in front of his mother a...

Not We Will Fall by The Stooges (and with pungent incense)? How are they going out? Long illnesses? Which illnesses? Are they goi...

What I'm asking is, you think that egotistical gurus have some sort of Circuit 6 malfunction? I don't get it.

I reckon you know who he was. Actually I was going to ask if you think he's an example of Circuit 6 guru-,complex (Leary and Crowley related). He do...

Siddhi or not siddhi, that is the question.

The demon Barter appears to be paranoid. They use the term "gears" to describe how the circuits work. Looks like you didn't know that. I...

Leary. Go read. End.

I gave a stark example but any of Christ's parables are lessons. Lesson. Noun; 'Something that serves as a warning or encouragement.'

13 “You are the salt of the earth,kbut if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored?It is no longer good for anything except to be ...

Would your Circuit 6 "tripping" gear be in full effect at that point?

I forget if he put his own unique slant on those methods. For example, the counting whilst holding the nostrils, did he devise it of his own ingenium...

All this fuss yes. Fuss off! That is, fuss is over with. Now, back to the OP I guess.

That's a no and a 'How would you even think that from what I wrote?'

In and of itself there is no difference between what I called 'Thelemic pranayama' and the pranayama demonstrated in the text books or teachings which...

You're right, if I'm staying at a friend's place and we go shopping and I buy a tin of spaghetti from ALDI and one from ASDA and take them back, I'm ...

If you can show me that Buddhism (not Tibetan ) has ever advocated alternate nostril- closing/opening pranayama then ok I learned something. Over t...

So you should know that Tibetan Buddhism is it's own maverick thing, right? Was the OP discussing that?

To keep the biological metaphor going, don't you think that Buddhism is the skeleton of Thelema and the skryiing and Cabbala rituals etc are the organ...

Bit of a difference in that Crowley used Hindustani asanas and intensive prana-yama. Furthermore where is the Skrying, Rising on the Planes in an ast...

Pity is patronizing, egoic and rigid. That doesn't describe you, right? Compassion is not pity. Now, if AC meant that to be compassionate is to in...

.,..much like Thelema and Marxism? I asked you why advocate Marxism, maybe in this long thread I can't remember, you cited the fact that your ...

Don't want to discuss something so resort to your 'You’re on drugs, right?' response. What are you missing? If you think I've made a wacky statement...

That's right they being the two subjects at hand.... are related y'know they way the subjects of Faraday and Tesla....are related or e.g. likewise wit...

Like they're not related.

Haven't you noticed that Christ's teachings seem to be warnings?

Well, I didn't bring 'Trances' into this thread, I was responding to Katrice.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Crowley's trances' i.e. Dhyana only followed a very long linear process of mastery of each of the preliminary factors invo...

Yes, not Palin, corrected. Yes, they're different I see.

Double Post apology but I must add that I'd say that most martial arts classes employ cushions under their bottoms for their version of Crowley's Drag...

Are you on a weed come-down or something? I'm asking Shiva if he ever tried The Dragon Asana (and was going to go on to ask if it was his favourite a...

It's not about actual Kings and slaves or constitutional democracies as such..., it's metaphorical.

We're discussing another thread, Katrice's introductory thread to be exact.

Have you ever tried it?

Trance of loathing etc, I've found it thanks.

I didn't find it to be hostile, I genuinely don't know why you're saying that, I can't find your introductory post about what your interests are/wer...
