Who/what is/are Dynamis?

[Burgel]

In NAP there is a spell for controlling others, and in it, help is sought from a spirit called “Dynamis.” The name is definitely Greek, and I found it strange since in all the other spells, help is sought from angels with obviously Hebrew names. When searching for information about this Dynamis (whom the book seems to refer to as a single individual, although I cannot be sure since Old English is not my strong suit), I find things like that it is actually the name of a type of angel (or another kind of spirit) or that it is a type of energy. This has confused me quite a bit, and I would appreciate it if you could clarify things for me, since I am translating the spells into my language for my personal use and when speaking I have to differentiate between whether I am referring to one or more individuals. And by the way, this has nothing to do with Dynamis, but since I’m talking about NAP: Does anyone know if the “magical mentor” referred to in the book is the HGA?

Dynamis is not a spirit per se, like an angel or a demon, but more like a universal force. There is an older post here about it:

Dynamis : The Spirit Of Fast Results

Dynamis is a force/spirit I recently worked with who’s concerned with dynamism and the acceleration of magickal progress and results, and the short exercise below may work for anyone whose practice has been interrupted, through everyday life, illness, even burnout, and you’re finding getting back in the flow harder than it should be. I also hope this spirit will accelerate other work, when called on first as the gatekeeper of the pace at which something manifests, but I haven’t tested this so I’m just mentioning it as something to try. Important: because, as far as I know, this is an untested spirit (see footnote), it’s best to do a reading first to check if this is advisable for your situation. Buy a yellow tealight, or small votive lamp, or spell candle, or regular candle - it must be yellow wax, and the faster it’s consumed the better, so something like a tealight (they’re usually like 4 hours and safer to leave burning non-stop) is ideal. Take a match or taper, or lighter, in your right hand, point it at the candle like a wand and call upon Dynamis to accelerate your progress and overlook your lapse. Keep it simple, don’t offer excuses, short-sharp-sweet is the way. “I call upon you, Dynamis, to accelerate my progress and overlook my lapse” - that’s plenty. Light the candle and then let it burn completely - don’t, unless there’s a real emergency, extinguish it and come back later. Ideally, fill the time with at least some magickal study, exercises, practices, etc. …

It helps to think of Dynamis in a way similar to how people speak of the spirit of a sport or an event. Comments like “That’s the spirit!” or “Get into the spirit of things” don’t refer to any particular being but to the force or energy of what is happening.

No, the magical mentor is a thoughtform you create. It is not the same as the Holy Guardian Angel.

Pls any tips on how to get fast results while performing the NAP wealth incantations and what to do after the ritual to appease or please nitika

One last thing what ways hasten the outcome better than offering sexual energy to nitika

[DarkestKnight]

NAP is meant to be simple. Don’t overthink it. And Nitika doesn’t need any sexual energy to do the work.

Well, it’s the second day of my NAP ritual (this should actually be the third day, but something came up yesterday and I couldn’t do the ritual). I must say that it feels quite strange how quick and straightforward this is, and I feel a bit dumb doing the bornless ritual, but I guess that’s normal and happens to everyone at the beginning, right?

Yep, completely normal. I often feel like an idiot when I’m doing rituals because it feels like I’m just talking to myself and I can’t help but wonder what my neighbours are thinking about me lol
