"@Rhoda Wandaka; meditation is a discipline, and must be practiced consistently. Good sources on the subject are Aleister Crowely's eight lectures on yoga (raja yoga that is), and Jason Miller's take back your mind course."
"@Rhoda Wandaka; why did you choose to meditate? And for how long, and how many times?"
Notes from a Cave
The importance of developing an "observer" mindset can not be understated if you truely wish to make change.We are all "addicts".Addicts to habit.

"Only you carry the bags, and it's only you who can put them down."
I Conduct
So if we go back to this analysis of literalism, and the definition, we are led to consider the "imaginative" path of interpretation of words.These individual interpretations of word, have many levels. And this is dependent on the reader.But at what point does the individual become the word?This event is occult, in that it is "hidden" from the interpreter.I will not use the term "reader" because that implies individual thought, and consideration. "Consumer" is somewhat accurate, but it lacks…See More
I Observe
It's funny how much information we take in, even more so than that, how much of that we accept literally.A simple example of this is advertisement.We (the company) have this great new product, that, well, frankly, we know you want.To some degree this an inversion of the process, in my opinion.From a pure Hermetic view point, this inversion, probably doesn't even matter as long as it is observed and brought into conscious awareness.I think that's the point.To recognize the process for what it…See More

Stagnation, Bodies, Wounds
In the Christian faith, there are many prayers and mantras which contain the words (or concepts) "mercy", "blessing", and "forgiveness".I wonder if the basis for this observation is that, generally speaking, we lack the ability to do this for ourselves.If you consider the physical body, the subtle body, and traumatic experience, you can see, if you look carefully, that these are all interrelated.I would venture to say that the majority of issues, whether physical or mental, are the result of…See More

Emotion is a tool to pierce through that fog of equanimity.
To initiate change is a powerful ability.
The rip is not the point.
It's a step into something new.
On the other side is responsibility.
Not more rips.
Take care in the exploration of ego dressed in balance.

I've had this meme in my "Celebrity" file for months and not known where to post it. I think you'll like it. We have to understand though that very few are either just part of the problem or just part of the solution. Black and white do not shine that brightly when kindness creeps in to relatively bleak scenarios. We need not support a myth that stunts anybody's will to improve their lot from whatever glue they may be stuck in as dealt. Thanks for all the posts. Breathe and laugh!
