You ascend and you can keep your identity.
Exactly… which is why I’m confused about the end goal purpose of vampiring that @N.D_Blackwood suggested
I still think there may be a valid point to the practice… I just wanna find what it is and disagree that must be it
End goal purpose is to ascend using that system. To keep your energy body from dying off after death using his instructions.
Sure… but say the AsetKa … who aren’t using @N.D_Blackwood instructions but would have had a purpose all the way back in ancient Egypt… what was their point? I don’t think it’s ascension as they knew imo all about other methods
There is not only one way to ascend.
Well definitely… so what’s the point in combining several if one works??
Comes off like I’m saying it’s pointless
I don’t mean that
I mean I wanna know the purpose
Different systems can grant different abilities.
As I mentionned earlier, I’m not fluend with Egyptian lore and order who use it. This type of stuff is totaly absent from my book. I have read the Asetian Work but I would not be able to talk for them.
So what other abilities does this offer?
@N.D_Blackwood Can tell you what abilities his book offers
Yes, I wanna know what vampirism could offer me that other methods cannot grant me those abilities I guess
You mean, the cult of the Undeads ?
An anchor for your astral body to be able to keep your conscience and powers after your physical death and avoid dissolution and reincarnation. An important boost of occult habilities, as the practionner will inherit the essence of his predecessors. Depending on the blood pool he will pact with, the habilities can vary. An augmented magnetism. The hability to drain the life of others, and manipulate their life essence, wich is used for banefull purpose, but can also be used for healing. A greater hability to Soul Travel and master this capacity, and a greater contact with your own shadow self (wich in some tradition, is done by the contact of spirit animals).
I still don’t think it cannot be acheived by other systems
But I think there must be a point, it’s found in multiple traditions
I’m looking for it and why other systems would incorporate it already having a method to acheive those things…
Only pursue this path if you resonate with it
Well I gotta find the point to understand why before I would persue the journey
Therefore hoped I might get some insight
Thanks I’ll go have a watch
It is mainly about the spirits in the path. Do you think you would be comfortable working with
and the cult of the undead?
I have zero idea
I just know I spot vampiric elements in many traditions and wanna know why it would be included
Even in my own tradition I was born into… I see vampiric elements. People would be horrified at calling it that… buuut…
Would this anchor help with soul travel before death as well?
