The tendency towards “black magic”

[Minyatur]

I actually never really resonated with comments of the world being "inherently sts" (at least not in a positive way)

The only reason I posted this was because Blavatsky's words seemed to potentially speak to what others may have referred to as an inherently STS society... or whatever. I'm not saying Blavatsky is saying that this world is inherently STS. I'm just saying, these statements were made on this forum, they didn't resonate with me in a positive way, and after finding this Blavatsky quote, I feel I have more of an understanding of where a "world is inherently STS" statement may come from.

Again, I don't think the world is inherently STS, I don't think Blavatsky is saying that. It just feels to me that she's potentially speaking to where some folks might be coming from when they say the world is inherently sts

i hope thats clear

To me that is somewhat the fallacy of seeking magic and why I've never had a great interest, it felt like it would hinder my path rather than aid it.

My path revolve around my ability to become transparent and selfless within my reality, so what is sought is to transform myself foremost and from there become an opportunity through which other things may find to be transformed in healing also. As I walk this path, I become more resonant with higher aspects of my reality, which are expressed through my being because I am transparent to them. Usually someone will seek magic to transform or control something external, which is the exact opposite of wanting to perceive the total unity of their reality.

In a way, it's a bit like how you could judge our societies as more negative than they are because of how they are managed. What is actually seen is that a position of power attracts the few who seek and thrive in power. In the same fashion, magic is a concept of power and so will be mostly be sought by those who seek power. Those who do not seek power, which is the vast majority of everyone, do not seek neither positions of power within society nor magic.
