Comment on Magic P-Orridge by mahalia

They were a fine series of books & they deserve to be more widely known.

I’ve always felt fate to be an as yet undiscovered natural law, actually most comparable to gravity – we feel ourselves pulled towards certain moments as all moments of space/time are one, & have to be, simply to hold the physical universe together. Every moment has always been. Fate, or Destiny, or whatever we want to call that phenomena, is just the felt awareness of that fact.
Magic is the attempt to unify through intention the individual will of the smaller part with that of the larger will, that of what we might call the universe. And also to attempt to perceive what ones own individual will truly IS. The more you do this the more you realize that your deepest, truest will, & that of the universe are one & the same & always have been. And that they have to be.

Comment on Dream conference in The Netherlands by Ryan

I’m hoping to go too!

one correction: in 2008, the IASD conference was in Montreal. Still in the new world, but it was robustly international in attendance.

Comment on On nihilism and enthusiasm by Gyrus

I think you’re opening “I don’t agree” should have been “I’ve got some interesting extra information”!

Oh I don’t agree. When I hear the term ‘enthusiasm’ is straightaway tells me its connection with the very Greek term it is translation from enthousiasmos, and its main definition of ” Ecstasy arising from supposed possession by a god.” And we know this means *eating* the ‘god’, the entheogen, and enthusiams has been translated as ‘possession’/being possessed by the god
And for those of us who have had psychedelic experience, we know what we mean about being enthused….Your eyes become the eyes of Medusa, as you draw in the magical energies and souls of sensual reality
N O T H I N G is insignifianct in that state of enthusiasm/possession even the shadows, so in that respect we agree then ;)~

Comment on The crass realities of Avatar by Merrick

Thanks for that, Gyrus. Personally i loved those one-liners about the only thing worse than looking bad for killing the indigenous is having a bad quarterly balance sheet. On the 'killing the indigenous looks bad', it reminds me of something in corporate Watch's Corporate Law and Structures report: For most people, economic values are secondary, and social and to a lesser extent environmental values come first: making money is good but only if it doesn’t conflict with believing it’s wrong to murder, steal or cut down virgin rainforest. For the corporate ‘environmentalist’, profit is absolute, social and environmental values are relative: their first aim is to make as much money as possible, but given two ways to make that money they choose the one that requires the least murder, blatant theft or environmental destruction. Then they pat themselves on the back for being so responsible.
