I was quite shocked to stumble across a Chaote's blog, although I don't know if you call yourself a chaote. I have yet to see that word mentioned even once. You may have inspired me to resume work within myself again. I'll get back to you on if I actually go through with it, but thank you, in any case. I'm also curious how long you've been meditating, researching, and doing your own magick. You remind me of a good friend of mine when he was younger. What anthology was this included in?

I highly recommend it. Thanks :) My favorite anime is Utena, and my favorite book is Demian, by Herman Hesse, which is where the “Break the world’s shell” speech is adapted from.

Good luck to you in your endeavors!

This paragraph is now about science,
When darwin proposed the theory of evolution he observed correctly the phenonema of survival of the fittest, he also observed correctly the fact that living beings change and adapt, he could not observe a measurable and repeatable phenonema which predicted or explained this process of change so he claimed without evidence it was random, if he was true to science he should have stated that he could not find that source of the change.
In this respect indivudal scientists do overstretch their self defined boundaries, and as a result they have the effect of trying to rationalise parts of realty which are not rational and blind others who believe them from the magical reality. but it is not science which does this it is the human ego

when you can seperate the claims of science from the claims of scientists, you will be no longer troubled by either and then you will only have to battle your own desires in the search for a clear view of an unrestricted paradigm

Because there are words that perfectly encapsulate everything we know, like the exact feeling you get when you realize you fall in love with someone and it's totally different from when you fell in love with the person before that, or the sudden realization that everything is connected. Oh wait. It's nothing mystical, Krev. It's just wordless. Of course you’re right.

Nothing else. If truth were known, parts or even most of the modern world would know it. And truths are known, but nothing that is spoken in this wordpress blog. Odd, isn't it? You're the solely enlightened being who can't even say a word about what he knows? Sorry. You’re both nuts.

It's sort of a reference to the Schroedinger Cat thought experiment. At the risk of totally oversimplifying, basically imagine a closed box with a cat in it and a cyanide capsule that will be released if a certain sensor is activated. There is a 50-50 chance that a particle will strike the sensor. If you don't open the box, you won't know which of these two eventualities have occurred. If you don't know, then both possibilities exist at the same time. Therefore the cat is alive and dead at the same time. Quantum physics is such a messed up science. :D Kay:
