Hi, I had a question. Has anyone had success with reaching their higher self? Personally I adopt the luciferican perspective of philosophy and application of Magicka, I know there is lots of talk if the higher Daemon or GA aka higher self. And apparently they can have their own name, I was wondering about your experiences with that. Can a GA or higher Daemon be the same as a infernal deity or something akin to that? Or do you think it’s more Individualistic? And can take on many forms similar to that of a mask of a deity? Kind of embodying the energies in that representation? I heard some people even have their names. What’s your thoughts?
No. In my opinion, I think there is a lot of confusion in regards to the concept of a “godself.” Some people like to claim various popular demons as their own, even though that kind of misses the whole point. A godself is supposed to represent the divine aspect of the human, not something external.
I think names are just for the ease of communication. It is easier for humans to externalize something in order to talk with it, than to talk directly to ourselves. This is why humans anthropomorphize natural phenomena into the idea of gods. It’s far easier to pray to Zeus, for example, than to try and talk to a thunderbolt. It’s also why we name and talk to our machines and other objects.
The Godself/Higher Self is supposed to be the individual writ large. It is not separate from you but a higher dimensional YOU with a capital Y. It is different from the idea of a guardian daemon or angel in that it is not an external being so much as it is a representation of the full expansion of your individual soul.
Sounds wonderful, I was thinking along the lines of that with the conceptualization of embodiment. Cause the more I dive into these concepts the more I realize the energies we embody are natural forces at heart, but I’ve also had encounters via dream with a conscious force of that symbolic envisionment guiding me, it could be the higher self embodying the elements. But I don’t really know. I guess time will tell
