Faith vs. Delusion - Adonai One - 07-28-2013 The pathes of most aspiring adepts will end not in the darkness of corrupt power but the darkness of delusion, of the deception of the universe itself. Fantasy, magical thinking will cloud the minds of most that are able to pursue the impossible, the mystical and the mysterious. One either becomes consumed by their personal fairy tales, false gods and hallucinations or has the dedication and honesty to see the reality that resides in the inner-mind -- which is very rare. The ones of the left-hand path often seek order in the universe and as such they are able to see the order that exists. To an extreme at times but at least to an extent to where actual work can be performed. The right-hand path, often embracing of the freewilled nature of mystery, mysticism and loving worship of supposedly powerful entities, will often become distorted to the point to where they deny the existence of order itself. Both pathes have their own form of insanity. One being a desire for the deletion of self and the other an ever-expansive cancer of pure fantasy without structure nor intention, often being a positive-inverse of the negative path: The worship of false gods and deities in the name of "good." The sacrifice of self in the name of "good." Really all forms of insanity in the realm of the arcane arts are of the same nature: The practicioner loses their concept of self completely and it's sacrificed to delusion. This is the religion of most of humanity. When humanity can let go of fantasy and start having faith in sound axioms that originate in the self rather than silly books and drug-crazed, delusional states of mind, then we can pursue true knowledge. Faith as a concept at this time is diseased. Faith does not mean you should believe in everything you could plausibly resonate with. Faith means believing in what you know about yourself but don't fully realize. Quote:49.4 Questioner: Well, please… will you go ahead and comment on it?

Being a connection to spirit, faith is primary to belief. Faith supports the beliefs about what you know about yourself. That is, spirit = infinity, ergo the suggestion from the connection due to faith is one of self-realization. RE: Faith vs. Delusion - Unbound - 07-28-2013 Don't you have to have faith in knowledge to find "true knowledge"? Like, you still have to have faith in your own ability to receive knowledge from yourself. RE: Faith vs. Delusion - AnthroHeart - 07-28-2013 I know I was delusional when I saw Ra. RE: Faith vs. Delusion - BrownEye - 07-28-2013 I see faith as 'knowing'. Even if you know very little, you have faith in that. The rest is just belief. Seeking should be the attempt to know more, rather than a way to add filler to belief. You could say that faith is knowing that it is possible to know more. I think Quo said it best.

Seems like another delusion, as people who "know" are also quite dysfunctional. I think this confusion comes from the fact that faith supports belief and thus faith+belief=knowing. Very few actually have workable mystical gnosis. RE: Faith vs. Delusion - Adonai One - 07-28-2013 Is faith a function of intention as belief is? RE: Faith vs. Delusion - zenmaster - 07-28-2013 (07-28-2013, 10:14 PM)Adonai One Wrote: Is faith a function of intention as belief is?Faith is a resource which is made available through acceptance. It is of the spirit. It is something which once revealed, can not be denied and sort of guides and supports all thought and intention. On the other hand, belief is some specific structure of thoughts which has limited application. Belief tends to support a particular desire (which here in 3rd density is an "as-if" treatment), whereas faith supports any desire and does not depend on such limited conceptualization. RE: Faith vs. Delusion - Unbound - 07-29-2013 Faith is the charge and beliefs are the conductors, mm? RE: Faith vs. Delusion - reeay - 07-29-2013 insanity and delusion are rather clinical terms that apply to small populations... and it certainly is not the opposite of faith RE: Faith vs. Delusion - Ludi - 07-29-2013 "Delusion is to believe there is no illusion"-Siren You gotta stop fancying yourself as a scientist man, you sound like a euphoric fedora wearer. "Insanity" in adepts is usually caused by energetic imbalance due to lack of discipline. I just had a cup of joe with a goblin while discussing Chaos mathematics, this 'fantasy' is confrontation with the self (as is every situation/catalyst). Seeking an objective "ULTIMATE REALITY!! WE ARE THE HARBINGERS OF PURE KNOWLEDGE! LIBERATORS OF THE MIND AND HUMANITY!" is not something I would advise lol "Sound axioms" oh boy this actually grinds my gears you're a fan of Nietzche aren't you? What happened to "There are no facts, only interpretations"?? If you build a line of reasoning built on a flawed foundation Ie. EVERYTHING CONCEIVED BY ANYONE/ANYTHING the conclusions you reach are going to have an element of distortion. NO entity escapes this. To have no distortion in understanding is to be nothing. Implying that "drug crazed delusional states of mind" are something to be completely disregarded is soopa silly XD ZOMG I'll add this cos fink itz imortenrt This "corrupting delusional darkness" that adepts often encounter on their journey are simply parts of the self not acknowledged/accepted. Also the reason left hand entities seek order is because order is a form of regulating power, they manipulate the universe to serve the self thus the name service to self lel There's gonna be a time you find out just how "insane" this place really is lolol One more thing "insanity" is when there is a tangle of thought processes, a disarrangement if you will. An "insane" persons' thoughts often make plenty of sense to them but to no one else because no one shares that particular system of thought filtration. If you met Tesla while he was alive you would probably label him (a pointless practice) as insane. Let people put their views across if you want "progress" regardless of label.

To limit belief to finite aspects of our lives... I find inaccurate but I see where Zenmaster is coming from being "Zen" and all. Faith is more like spark and beliefs are the flame.

RE: Faith vs. Delusion - Unbound - 07-29-2013 Who decides galactic law? RE: Faith vs. Delusion - Adonai One - 07-29-2013 (07-29-2013, 05:58 AM)Tanner Wrote: Who decides galactic law? The intention set by the logos? RE: Faith vs. Delusion - Ludi - 07-29-2013 Lol like what? What 'galactic law' am I denying? Your way too attached to the notion of order. The only 'galactic law' I can think of is that there are no laws in y'know cos of freewill lol omg XDD RE: Faith vs. Delusion - Adonai One - 07-29-2013 (07-29-2013, 06:03 AM)Ludi Wrote: Lol like what? What 'galactic law' am I denying? Even interpretation itself is governed by the fact that it's very conception exists. The principles of perception cannot be denied as even insanity has its order. RE: Faith vs. Delusion - Ludi - 07-29-2013 Logos: "lol du wat u lyk guize" Pls tell me more about the principles of perception oh wise harbinger of truth lolol You're going all linear man, srsly you need to learn to control this, it's a bad habit. lol you gotta break up these lines and i'm gonna help you for the cheap price of my valuable time Ok here I go, wish mi luck ![]() NO.1 nothing exists, stop creating a dichotomy within your mind of things that do and don't. Now that's delusion! *ba dum tss* NO.2 As I've said before singular cause/effect is the way to go if you're into not understanding things NO.3 Replace that "governed' with "influenced" remember that you have freewill my little creator But back to your confident assertion: If you take time and read my words I do suggest that insanity does have an order, it's just a different order than what most people are used to. Ok, friend, just remember you are not the chosen one and the responsibility you heave upon yourself is your own (poor) choice, also stop calling faithful ppl diseased its not very nice ![]() RE: Faith vs. Delusion - Unbound - 07-29-2013 Quote:Ra: I am Ra. The answer is to redirect your thought processes from any mechanical view of evolution. The will of the Logos posits the potentials available to the evolving entity. The will of the entity as it evolves is the single measure of the rate and fastidiousness of the activation and balancing of the various energy centers. Quote:Questioner: I guess, under the first distortion, it was the free will of the Logos to choose to evolve without free will. Is this correct? Quote:Ra: I am Ra. As you have noted, the creation of which your Logos is a part is a protean entity which grows and learns upon a macrocosmic scale. The Logos is not a part of time. All that is learned from experience in an octave is, therefore, the harvest of that Logos and is further the nature of that Logos.

Very few actually have workable mystical gnosis. Not sure what you mean by mystical gnosis. You could say that this is what I mean by 'knowing'. This would describe the Sacred Heart, the High Heart, the Rose chakra, the Thymus. And yes, very few activate it. Quote:The heart and the knowledge of the heart is the higher knowledge when compared with the knowledge of the mind. We do not wish to denigrate the knowledge of the mind or the process of investigation of that incoming information which is precisely what the mind and the intellect were created to process. Indeed, we encourage the natural functions of the mind and would only suggest that the mind be honest with itself and not indulge in sophistry and shallow thought but go deeper and penetrate, to the best of your intellectual ability, the tendency towards shallow analysis as opposed to a deeper and broader point of view that shall bring you more information at a level that shall be helpful to you. Quote:Now, the faith, when taken hold of by the seeker, creates an area of control in all situations within this or your illusion, indeed, within any that we know of. How to lay hold upon that natural function? How to encourage it? We have often said that faith, when first chosen as a way of living, is nothing more than a leap into space. Faith creates itself in the mid-air, when the will of the seeker has been surrendered. That first so-called leap of faith is a beginning. It could be nothing more than the conscious decision, the promise to the self, “I will live by faith.” This is a good beginning. This might interest everyone.

It's the first vibration which allows transpersonal awareness. It's part of a cycle of orientation: in->out->in->out, or me->we->me->we. Higher still is a "temporal" view, then formless. Each corresponds to a "body". Interestingly it is this introduction combined with the uninformed mind (i.e. promoted by various memes, such as the new-age magical meme) which encourages reversion back to pre-rational treatments which of course is usually confused with trans-rational states. Such confusion is enthusiastically demonstrated in these channeling sessions - esp "Qu'o" . Even Jung fell prey to the fallacy.(07-28-2013, 10:08 PM)zenmaster Wrote:(07-28-2013, 09:58 PM)BrownEye Wrote: I see faith as 'knowing'.What does "knowing" mean?
