Elison, please… not again. I understand your position, but and that is fine. Do you, I’m sure you are doing great with what you are feeling, and I personally feel that it is no less valid than anyone else. But like the evoking Abaddon thread, you are getting to a point where you are priding your experiences over others, and that your experience is the “true” experience. That might not be your aim, but that is exactly what you are doing here. You’ve stated your piece, and the folks here want to test the waters despite your experience. At this point, what else can you do that is helpful or worthwhile? Folks took what you said into consideration, made their assertions, and are deciding to pursue what they are going to pursue. So unless you got info helping that exploration, why are you continuing to drive a point that the OP has already taken in, and decided his own path?
I’m not trying to bash you, but this is the second time where you start spitting out authority messages without even giving something other than opinion. You talked to spirits… so have a lot of other people. Many of us getting info from entities that is perfectly for us, and I have yet to get someone who has ever got info that is “universal” for what is and is not possible. But somehow, you got that universal info… I’m not saying it’s impossible, but I’m certainly not convinced.
I respect your position man, but when it isn’t helpful, and turns into a pointless debate, it really is just becoming foolish. I am the last person here who takes EA’s words just because he is a well-known “authority” on magic. Hell, ask anyone who knows me on this forum, and I am constantly criticizing many of the views. But goodness… at least people are doing things that work with his methods, and they work where their previous, more traditional stuff failed. But so far, you are just throwing out opinions like someone with an authority that honestly would make his presence here completely pointless. So rather you are wasting your time, because you are too powerful to really need to be on this forum, or you are a practitioner with a lot to learn just like everyone else here. Either way, these blaring statements about “true spirits (most of which aren’t even “spirits”, but varying entities characteristics and realities that are completely sensory)”, “real reality”, “this impossibility”… c’mon man.
I’m not going to entertain any of this stuff anymore, and I may have wasted my time entertaining it now. But I feel you can do better than to just keep throwing this stuff out where it will literally only cause useless, and extremely flawed debates. I would also ask that folks stop entertaining this type of stuff here, because it’s really starting to look like evocationmagic and other perpetrators of baby-dick egotism and head-up-the-assery.
