A very cool piece on the topic of Magick and mind. Exactly why we are here!

I was lucky enough to sift through r/occult to come across this boon of a perspective. The author has wished for anonymity and I will honor it. The body of the post will be in the show notes below. Thank you for your written word and your wonderful point of view.

This particular piece drew me in partially due to the engagement with Neville Goddard, Joseph Murphy and all same/similar information and experiences circling around these topics.  Within the author breaks down quite well an overview of why magick always works and the implications of it. 

we find that:

-magick is real

-Magick always works

-The all is mind

and more!

A laser focused beam of thought to ignite a fire within so we may cook a feast of a life throughout. 

Thanks for the light.

Body of the post Below:

This is gonna be long. buckle in.

So let me first address the big thing:

yes, literal magick is real. yes, things like sigils can make it so that you can find money on the ground. I've accomplished intents like finding fast money, and the next day i found both a $50 bill AND a $20 on the ground in the same evening. Literally in the most unlikely of ways, it was crazy.

So this tells me, anybody who tells you that magick is "purely psychological"(meaning it doesnt affect anything outside of your apparent body) is either weak-willed, ignorant, misguided, or trying to suppress your abilities for whatever reason. Straight up.

Remember that reddit is an open forum, so all KINDS of people with no standard training can just waltz in here anytime and say anything they want, on top of the fact that they filter their opinions with strong biases. If I would've listened to all the close-minded fools, I would've never learned what I learned. I had to become confident in my own ability & had to learn to not give a fuck about anybody else if i wanted to experience the truth for myself.

The only person who can confirm all this is you, and its through your power alone that you find the Truth in yourself. Why do you think so many powerful spiritual figures in history went through a "hermit" stage where they isolated themselves from everybody & went off to mediate in a cave for years? because the nature of the real Truth is hidden IN you. Yes, conceptual frameworks can help guide you, but the REAL truth? its unspoken. its not something that can be "figured out" intellectually with other ignorant people. Eventually, once you reach a certain point, you have to not give a fuck what Aleister Crowley, Peter Carroll, Don M. Kraig, or even what S. Buddha said, and realize the taste of the truth experientially for yourself, to the point that its unmistakable what it is.

but you have to genuinely be open-minded to discovering it. Tilopa, one of the master founders of Mahamudra Buddhism, and a powerful mahasiddha, gave his Six Precepts of Advice for starting your path to finding the truth:

1. Don't recall. Let go of what has passed [mi mno]

2. Don't imagine. Let go of what may come [mi bsam]

3. Don't think. Let go of what is happening now [mi sems]

4. Don't examine. Don't try to figure anything out [mi dpyod]

5. Don't control. Don't try to make anything happen [mi sgom]

6. Rest. Relax, right now, and rest [rang sar bzhag]

When you genuinely let go of all the ignorant conditioning thats been hammered into you, the Truth starts to appear and you can see the nature of reality for what it REALLY is.

Now, here's the thing about magick:

I've noticed many people tend to ask whether their spell "worked" or "not." this implie
