Oneiromancy: Form of magic that assert this world as an illusory dream, imagined by the consciousness of the reader, reality being a product of one's own volition. Anything related to this form of magic, from metaphysical and mystical experiences, to changing yourself and changing your reality, goes here. Relevant Terms:>Idealism: Idealism is a broad philosophical view asserting that reality is fundamentally mental, immaterial, or spiritually constructed.>Mysticism: Assertion which posits that unity with God or the Absolute, who is a surveillant of mysterious power affecting the universe or the ultimate cause, or any kind of ecstasy or altered state of consciousness, cannot be realized by rational deduction and is only possible through contemplation and self-surrender. Mysticism involves communicating with or directly experience the divine. Monks and nuns have often used meditation and prayer to induce mystical states but it can also involve esoteric practices like rituals or energy work.>Magic: Magic is the art and the science of causing change to occur in conformity with will.>Apotheosis: Refers to the theological and metaphysical concept of human transformation into divine state, encompassing both deification (becoming divine) and the soul's ontological ascent to higher being.>Nondualism: The recognition that apparent dualities are ultimately unified, interdependent, or illusory, such that existence is fundamentally complex and/or interconnected, even when it manifests as distinct principles.>Monism: Assertion that the fundamental principle of a concept, such as the universe, is only one. All is mind/spirit, and matter is manifestation of consciousness.Resources:>The Oneiros Archive, John Paolucci & Triumphant Georgehttps://mega.nz/folder/tFNnAALT#MZP_PJyXnhYnHu5RnrGiqQ Mirror 1https://archive.org/details/jp-tg-oneiros-archive_20260624 Mirror 2>Philosophical conceptshttps://philosophyball.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Pagehttps://iep.utm.edu/
How is this any different from Satanism?Are you too scared to do "evil", even though you think this a dream? Again, if you're beyond duality of subject and object, how is this any different from the traditions that we already have?
>>42623002>how is this any different from the traditions that we already have?It's really not. If anything, it evaluates ancient texts and mystic traditions in a non dualistic interpretation. This is what actually ancient traditions were talking about. "The One God" or any representation of totality (Tao, etc) being consciousness itself (indivisible, always present, without beginning or end, and so on). They were metaphors to refer to it at the time, but most people never draw the connection because it won't occur to them to identify themselves with God and the world it creates, and if that was the intention from the beginning, institutions subverted it later on. I think every single "religion" (or the scriptures from which religions originates) it all makes sense like this, and also becoming aware of what we call "magic". If whatever dreams are, reality is as well, then metaphysically speaking it's all "real", and pointing at the same core.
