What is it with fortune telling or occult things that drive people insane?
When you look into the abyss, the abyss looks also into you.
>>42182547Why do people do it then? Isn't it disorderly?
>>42182507Are you open to considering that insane people are drawn to the occult?
>>42182507In case of Philip K. Dick it was actually mixing LSD with Amphetamine
>>42182557It's unholy
>>42182507I became unhinged because half of me is always hanging out in the astral now. I'm too aware of spiritual reality. >>42182557You don't get powers by being normie goycattle.
>>42182557>Why do people do it then?Knowledge is powerKnowledge corruptsKnowledge that I fucked your mother lol
>>42182507It's not because it's inhenerently wrong or unholy as christcucks would tell you, it's because most people are not prepared for it. It's an intense journey, one that stops being purely physical, and so once you start on the path you better be prepared body mind and soul.
>>42182507For normies it's usually being unable to spot or deal with looshers. Normalfag does a spell to get a gf, loosher reacts to intention, gets him a gf and orchestrates their relationship to maximize looshing potential. Depending on the severity of the situation the loosher may push further, destabilizing the normalfag, sometimes to the point of possession.For magicians it's either delving too deep into the spirit realm and getting wrecked by the locals (some myths, like the underworld journey, reflect that) or interacting with power they cannot handle (like seeing the face of God) which may damage the body and the mind.On top of that, in the old times there used to be rites and taboos regulating interactions with the spirit world, some of which have survived as ceremony and superstition. The modern man does not go into magic as any sort of defined entity, he does not have any magical connection to the land, or to his tribe and ancestors, no real experience with the other side, no knowledge or understanding of the rules, no one to guide him. It amplifies the dangers of dabbling should the dabbler succeed.
>>42183761Should you succeed, though, the prize is as magnificent as the stakes.
>>42182507the physical brain is not made to handle the truth, it shortcircuits
>>42183884This. You are more than your brain but while in this form you can only handle so much - the brain and body filters and corrupts most data bc we are not made to comprehend it all. And that's why it's a good thing
>>42182507It's not insane. It's a retarded viewpoint. Atheist materialism. I'm atheist, but you're retarded, especially if you have an education in scientific thought and history if you're a materialist. For one, physics (basic) support the existence of magic -if you know any magic theory-. There's alao the widely known fact that tv stopped airing paranormal stuff and sent retards over to fake atheism in front of a camera.
>>42182507mysticism is dangerous, 75% bad outcome. >>42182557desperation
>>42182507>... they stood within the temple's silent dome, and, as the young man paused abrupt, his gaze upon a veil'd and giant IMAGE fell:>Amazed he turn'd unto his guide—"And what Towers, yonder, vast beneath the veil?"
>>42182507I think it was Bill Bars dad that fed Philip his stores via a radio linked dental implant in some covert MK-Ultra project.
>>42182507It's the deities and skypeople, you put yourselves under their control and they fukk you over. You need spiritual independence, such as shamanism, mages, witches, etc, with your own power, many shamans draw the spirits from within, the inner worlds, for one.
>>42182507I’ve known many truly insane fanatics and all of them were some variety of Heistcuck,er, Christcuck ! One was a lady that was reduced to saying, “Deaf,, Dumb, God” over and over again. One celebrated his God by using a JW Bible for smoking papers. He is a JW. Another one was deduced to saying something liket, “Una petitio…” They were all Christcucks! I’ll take Ishtar, the Queen of Heaven, and the alleged Whore of Babylon instead of the Divine Zombie any day…
>>42182507People can't handle that sort of information
>>42182507Insane people are drawn to mystical explanations for their experiencesMystical people have beliefs that alienate them from people, the deeper they go into esoteric belief systems the more they risk running out of different people with different beliefs to get a reality check on what is real and not real to them People who experience something they can’t explain are told they’re crazy by most people but occultists or the religious might tell them they have divine insight, causing the same effect of alienation if they’re surrounded by too much of one or the other I’m sure if there were people who have actual psychic powers working as fortune tellers, it would have to drive you crazy with the work sometimes like any job and the fact that it’s special and magic is a risk factor for having a crisis about your purpose in life or something. Just from a mundane pov.
