Faith vs. Delusion

[Adonai One]

The pathes of most aspiring adepts will end not in the darkness of corrupt power but the darkness of delusion, of the deception of the universe itself.

Fantasy, magical thinking will cloud the minds of most that are able to pursue the impossible, the mystical and the mysterious. One either becomes consumed by their personal fairy tales, false gods and hallucinations or has the dedication and honesty to see the reality that resides in the inner-mind -- which is very rare.

The ones of the left-hand path often seek order in the universe and as such they are able to see the order that exists. To an extreme at times but at least to an extent to where actual work can be performed. The right-hand path, often embracing of the freewilled nature of mystery, mysticism and loving worship of supposedly powerful entities, will often become distorted to the point to where they deny the existence of order itself.

Both pathes have their own form of insanity. One being a desire for the deletion of self and the other an ever-expansive cancer of pure fantasy without structure nor intention, often being a positive-inverse of the negative path: The worship of false gods and deities in the name of "good." The sacrifice of self in the name of "good."

Really all forms of insanity in the realm of the arcane arts are of the same nature: The practicioner loses their concept of self completely and it's sacrificed to delusion.

This is the religion of most of humanity. When humanity can let go of fantasy and start having faith in sound axioms that originate in the self rather than silly books and drug-crazed, delusional states of mind, then we can pursue true knowledge.

Faith as a concept at this time is diseased. Faith does not mean you should believe in everything you could plausibly resonate with. Faith means believing in what you know about yourself but don't fully realize.

In your illusion the unbridled predominance of intuition will tend to keep an entity from the greater polarizations due to the vagaries of intuitive perception. As you may see, these two types of brain structure need to be balanced in order that the net sum of experiential catalyst will be polarization and illumination, for without the acceptance by the rational mind of the worth of the intuitive faculty the creative aspects which aid in illumination will be stifled.
