So what? That’s his articulation of what he experienced and not your business.
I think you’re trying way too hard to interpret someone else’s psychology, and you don’t even know if they interpreted it themselves completely or articulated it fully.
Why can’t you respect his UPG for what it is - UPG. There’s no rule that’s days you have to accept it as true in your worldview.
You expect us to accept yours at face value, such as saying you can control fire… how about you do the same for others and lead by example?
We are not going to be able to explain someone else’s experience. We are not the them. They are not here, they cannot defend themselves and here you are discussing them behind their back. This is not making them look bad.
If I told you half the things I experience in ritual, you’d say exactly the same things to me, I guarantee it. I actually do have posts on here detailing how I nuked every archon in my universe, how I’ve been surprise-posessed, and what I think of “god” snd what it is. So I’m not in a position to point fingers and I know it - why don’t you?
A lot of folks here are probably thinking the same thing. If you can judge one person, in public, you will judge them too. All that will result in is people dismissing you as a skeptic who thinks only their weirdness is ok but nobody elses is.
This is just making you look judgmental and it’s not just you. it causes amages to stay silent and not share their experiences as they also judge themselves as well as fearing judgement That’s a shame as so many people question and want to know if that crazy thought they had meant anything, and they end up not sharing for fear that they’ll be judged as larpers.
That’s why this forum respects UPG, because there’s not always an easy way to tell if an experience is honest or storytelling, and I for one cannot play thought police. It’s not our job to tell others what is truth, you already know this doesn’t work for you so why are you walking time letting this guy live rent free in your head?
It’s literally a rule on this forum that if you don’t like a post, you absolutely do not moralise or naysay on a working thread, you say nothing and you move on.
That courtesy extends to external providers. I’m letting this post stand as it’s about a specific concept and not reviewing the service provider in general, but if it went there I’d have to close the thread. We don’t bring drama here we just discuss the magick.
Honestly, let people be to do their thing and they’ll let you be. It’s the journey not yours and only they can walk their walk. You do you.
