Life's Problems

*https://www.tarotcardmeanings.net/majorarcana/tarot-death.htm

 You have a problem, and you seek a solution. A secondary problem is generally associated with the definition of the problem. Your tertiary problem is the inability to see that a well-defined problem is instantly solved. Then, a problem is just a mode of being. You are at the receiving end of both joy and pain with your own choice. Pain cannot be avoided without giving up on pleasure. Most think that there is a causal connection, e.g. the pleasure of drinking will cause the pain of hangover. This is not the mystical essence of being. The essence lies in the function of pleasure and function of pain operating through the same nervous channel, hence enjoying one always brings the other closer. Seek liberation, and fall in captivity. Buy new shoes and start sobbing for cartoon characters. The alternative is Death. Death well before the death of the body, if you are interested in any meaning. Karma dictates anything realized after physical death can only be subtracted from Karmic debt though action, i.e. another miserable life. 

The equation set like this, your only bet is to Love others. To love the World is to extricate yourself from its rewards and punishments. To fail in this is to become very demanding and competitive. What about loving demanding and even rude people? There should be no annoyance from others when the Spirit dissociated from the Soul and seeks its authentic journey. 

Indulgence is not a vice. If you can indulge, you should indulge. Free up your spirit. There is no perpetual indulgence. After the necessary experience you will find yourself ostracized and confused. Freedom leads to growth, growth leads to awareness. Sooner or later you will start operating in your Soul with a new outlook. Spirituality is not the exclusion of Indulgence, but a natural consequence of Will. You might ponder submitting your Will, mechanically manipulating the world, or blaming others. At the end you are the World, so long as you meditate on Death. 

There should be an affirmation. Something to lead the way. It might be positive feedback, such that Intelligence would bring earthly delights on your doorsteps. Karma loads you with a history of failure to assist you as a compass in your journey. You make your own tools from your own misery. You know you have transcended the Ego when you feel secure and safe again.

When In Doubt: Relax

-

Relaxation is the most important tool of the Aspirant in making progress on the Path. Face all the unconscious material that surface during relaxation, and do not change focus due to pain or anger. Let life flow within you, instead of outside you in a materialistic way. Don't count the hours or days. If you are in doubt, if you feel like you have lost the meaning, just relax. Let life provide the answers, motivations, situations and the new questions. Manifest your Spirit by relaxing. You will be amazed at the new Force this will bring to your Life, which will organize your Life, as well as protect it. Let submission be your rebellion.  'The Lazy Mans Guide to Relaxation' (1983) by Israel Regardie is a good resource for studying relaxation techniques.

The Two Worlds - Part II

 The continuation of my hypotheses on the Theory of Magic. The Organized World I don't want to sound like a control freak, but there really is a Divine Will that gets reflected on the World through the mediation of the Magician. In Fig. 1, I have attempted to give an outline of the 3 main states of the Magical Mind. The most common Magician in our age is the one which has completely identified with the 'I'. The 'I' is the rational problem solver part of the Self. The problem solver acts as a fountain of Divine Wisdom, thereby creating 'Intelligent Chaos'. Intelligent Chaos can be thought of as the Chaos community that takes shape from the fragments of wisdom spilled out by the Magician tuned to the wrong frequency. This happens completely in the unconscious, but can be traced as some part of it is verbal. I term this as 'Black Magic'. It also explains why 'Black Magic' is always an attempt at it, but never the accomplishment. If the Magician

Relaxation and patience through pain without seeking any cures will resurrect our self-object. With the self-object intact, you will gain the ability to care for, understand, protect and love yourself. You will feel whole and valuable. Your creative and social power will rekindle. Your seeking and loving instincts will be transformed to intellectual and will power. As you merge in awareness, your life will gain more meaning and momentum.
