First off, I have no idea whether those people really said that, but it wouldn't amaze me one bit. Secondly, I have no idea whether they were referring to the one-and-only-true-transcendental-Abramelin-HGA or the Crowley-HGA :) but I don't think it really matters in this context. <br /><br />So... idk what I was going to say further, but I'm glad I'm out of social media :DAlex Scaraoschihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08918705565881852467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7294505416127496842.post-10261393350097453142021-05-07T04:41:49.823-05:002021-05-07T04:41:49.823-05:00Aaaah, Lord Manticore being ever so funny as usual...Aaaah, Lord Manticore being ever so funny as usual :)))))<br /><br />On a more serious note, it is hard to make the kind of progress you're seeking because many of the public teachings today resume to pointing aspirants to books, classes, and many other things people who do the "teaching" usually sell. Alongside that, the narrow-minded view of many who dislike lodge magick for instance makes them way too rigid when it comes to interacting with someone who's using a system based on the latter, which makes it very cumbersome to make comparisons between results based on different magical methods. Stuff like "oh you don't need the MP" when someone asks (like the latest question posted in this blog) if using it can increased their success rate is highly detrimental for progress imo and sets the occult universe back hundreds of years. So according to your comparison we're not in the early-mid 1800s, but based on the many occultists with a narrow-minded view out there we're further back in time...Alex Scaraoschihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08918705565881852467noreply@blogger.com
