Former Buddhist here (family’s religion) and I’ve always doubted the whole karmic retribution thing until I’ve seen what happened to people who wronged me (in this life, current timeline). Mom was extremely abusive and violent towards me and my brother, dies in a car crash. Ex gf who was abusive, triggered my panic attacks, and mocked the people with mental illnesses now has developed anxiety and has panic attacks from time to time. Do you think these are legit examples of karma irl?

I don't rely on karma. If it's worth it I'll try to have my revenge, if it's something petty I'd rather forget it, why waste your energy on dumb shit

Uhh alright, I shall humbly share some of what I know:

So the word Karma, comes from Kar(action) and Man(to think). What does this mean?

As it's known, in many creeds there is the idea that God is everything and everyone, and so we are god experiencing ourselves. That would also mean that we have the ability to co-create the world together.

And Karma is exactly that: The result of our thoughts in the world. So if for example one says: "Oh I want a house", well because of your own divine ability to create (although most are unware of it while living human lives), you will start shaping the world so an opportunity of getting that which you wanted, comes. Now we tend to think of Karma as some divine judgment, because everything to exist needs it's positive and negative. So you get to have a house, but now you have to take care of it, so if something breaks, you have to pay. If a better job opportunity comes in another city, you have to stay because your house has a heavy tax connected to the bank, and all the many chores that owning a house can entail.

And all of this comes from a single thought. This is why they say "Becareful of what you wish"


Now you can learn to better handle your ability to create by becoming conscious of your unconscious thoughts, and that is when you transform your Karma in Dharma, from Dhar(to hold) and Man(thought), so it's basically the thoughts you are already aware of and thus are unlikely to come bite you later like the unconscious ones.

I think I am being humbled by the universe. For saying and doing bad things. I believe this is part of everyone’s path. Little instances only known to them. There is not a single bad thing I’ve ever done that hasn’t come back to bite me somehow. Gets me to get my act together. I feel so embarrassed of myself.

I am currently in a bad karma cycle. I am washing away my sins of a bad karma that I am facing for things I did/said. Similarly, I recently put out some bad energy into the universe that I know will cycle back to me eventually. I just want to start my good karma cycle. I am ready to wash away my bad karma and start fresh again.

my Christian faith leads me to believe God did not create aliens. He created us, the whole universe, everything in it. Feel like He would say something about aliens idk

>>9767
do you listen to redscare nona

I'm confident there's like bacteria or viruses or similiar microtiny lifeforces are out there. Not sure about any intelligent lifeforces. And tbh idgaf. As long as aliens aren't paying for or threatening my basic needs/existence it's completely uninteresting to me wether they exist or not.

Absolutely.

>>9767
Aliens and demons are the same thing. I mean what do you think are beings that possess, abduct people, and reveal them secret knowledge?

There's probably alien crabs somewhere. Look up carcinisation.

cc moves slow as a glacier, why not bump old threads? topic is still relevant and i thought it would be fun to discuss since it's been so long

are we really gonna pretend like elite men don't look out for each other? we literally live in a patriarchy. we know low-ranking moids will band together to cover each other, why would the ones with power be any different?

the body they dragged out there doesn't even look that much like Epstein, it was such a low effort fake

these responses are silly as shit

>>5866
"elite" (barf) moids only give a shit about other "elite" moids when they benefit from them in some way. if they're a liability or could potentially blackmail them, they'll be the first to stab each other in the back, or tie the noose, as in the case of epstein. males are psychopathic bio-robots who don't give a shit about anyone but themselves, and rich ones are no exception.

all I know is that when his client list is about to see the daylight, THATS when "aliens" will come

It would absolutely work! You can manifest anything. I’ve never personally tried that. I’ve written down certain features and interests. That’s worked for me.

Can you provide a link to the YouTube guide please?

Anon I need you to post that guide.

I'm Reading Temple of Cosmos by Jeremy Naydler, it's a good introduction to Ancient Egypt's cosmology; theogony; how people experienced religion/magic back then.
However, it's worth mentioning that many of his interprations are just interpretations, not hard facts, and Naydler's thoughts about the restoration of ancient religions are not very favorable.
I plan to read Faulkner's translation of the Book of the Dead; Pinch's Egyptian Mythology; Wilkinson's Complete Gods and Goddesses.

Where you should I start with learning occultism, at least the concepts and themes. I know this a broad question, I'm not much interested in practicing as much as it's more of an academic venture. I've been thinking of taking on a psych degree and I always thought my interest in occultism, symbolism, folklore, and drug use would help with different perspectives on the state of human consciousness/unconsciousness.

>>9584
Since you are interested in psych I might recommend you check out Carl Jung. He wasn't just one of the fathers of psychology, he was also very big into the occult. Reading him (or other Jungians) could get you an entrance to occult themes while relating to your field of interest. Marie louise von franz might actually be a better place to start. She wrote about fairy tales and alchemy from a psychological perspective. I'm pretty sure I linked one of her books in the OP under 'alchemy'. if youre not already familiar with some jungian basics, you could read Man and his Symbols to get started.
Personally, the corpus hermeticum was my intro. I think it is a fantastic place to begin. It is also in the OP under 'hermeticism'.
Since you are not really interested in practice, you could probably do without Crowley, Dion Fortune, and other more modern occultists that people usually tell you to begin with.
What type of folklore/occultism interests you?

>>9563
>translation of the Book of the Dead;
Nooo, don't do it. It's really long and repetitive. It's not meant to be read like a book. Just skim through. Best part is the poem that inspired the Song of Solomon btw.

Please make me a millionaire as soon as possible please. I want to get out of this house and maybe even this state. Leaving isnt cheap and I don't want to get raped at a homeless shelter or stay here anymore.

>>9564
That's it nona, thank you, i actually never read this document i only read about Aquariumgate via 4chan generals but this is so much better for people that want to understand it.

>>9564
not to play devils advocate too much, but those barn stars are very common in texas. If they were different colors like the link said it would be a different story, but pretty much everyone keeps one (or more) of these as yard and house decor. the house on the bottom right with the star inverted is definitely abnormal.
The aquarium thing is very scary though. TX is a bit of a hotbed for human trafficking.

>>9433
Holy crap, could they be secret locations for human trafficking or Illuminati hideouts?

>>9591
It's human trafficking shit for sure.

This one's not creepy, just an awkward music video some woman made that I stumbled upon. It has 1.4k views right now. I feel like someone here might appreciate it.

check this thread since it has some links that could be useful

I would start with reading material on the worship of the deity you're drawn to. Some deities were worshiped in different ways so it wouldn't make sense to treat them all the same just because they come from the same pantheon. Some of them may be better for a relaxed approach while others might require a very structured form of worship.

Read things like Homer and other works from that time for an idea how people saw the gods and how they fit into their daily lives.

You might find Helen of Troy by Bettany Hughes interesting too as it goes into detail about how Helen of Troy was worshiped as a sort of god.

>>9680
The first poster has it right, usually not all of the Gods and Goddesses were worshipped simultaneously or the same, especially the Greek ones. They were often divided into "cults" (not like how we define cult today) and had different means of worship. So you might want to choose the few you want to worship first and then study how their cults worshipped them. Usually with specific offerings.

a highly useful resource, it's been inactive for a couple years, but still the best blog I know of on this subject. the author is a lesbian, apparently.

>I have a couple of friends who experienced similar, but for them it was a family member who was watching over them.
Interestingly enough, many of the cases involve exactly that.

>In his case, Hillary knew the entity which appeared to him and guided him: it was his late mother, who had died in a car crash more than 20 years earlier.
>'It was like she'd come out there to keep me company,' he said.
>In a similar vein, diver Stephanie Schwabe escaped certain death when she heard the voice of her late husband and diving partner Rob Palmer.
Whether is the actual person or just whatever it is using an image to motivate and get you to trust "it" is another question.

Yes and yes. I see angel numbers all the time and still no angel boy. Not yet at least.

Have anything interesting to share?

It’s easier to traffick people without arson. Brings too much heat.

heh

Why would we need to covertly steal the land when we could just do it blatantly?

My mother practices witchcraft, and knows how to read the tarot , when I was young she used to do limpias to me and my brother all the time , as a child i believed all the witchy things she did where kinda dumb until I was a teenager and saw how the rituals she did where working , or the things she said will happen happened, or how she would cure other people , I asked her to teach me some stuff and she told me all women can make witchcraft because we are connected to nature and life (because we can create life) and that give us power and intuition that just needs to be acknowledged, when we learn this fact we can make witchcraft

Really looking forward to celebrate the autumnal equinox this year. I always fail to make preparations and end up doing almost nothing. This year I am buying pumpkins grown in the area, actually, I will buy anything interesting enough I can use in my cooking. I also have to find a discrete place outdoors to spend the afternoon.

idk if your still here but this folder in the 4moids occultism library has lots of books.

It is a blue moon tonight, what magical ritual should I do?

>>9676
depends on what you want to accomplish. might be a good night to try astral projecting somewhere or at least tracking dreams. You could meditate on an entity or maybe a tarot card and see what it says to you in your sleep.
