i noticed that a lot of people here are trying to "improve" themselves. myself included of course. everyone wants to either find that magic spell, or accumulate energy, have OBEs, ascend to the next density, or simply make sense out of all this nonsense. (just a few examples).theres lots of good info here, plenty of book reccos, people dropping little bits of info, instructions on how to practice different methods, but one thing i rarely ever seen mentioned is self preparation.before beginning anything, its important that youve done self work first. i know its unpopular, and if anyone actually replies to this, it will be to insult me. but idgaf im sharing anyway. lets get to the point.cont...
>>427470091. meditate. learn how to control your mind. learn how to enter different mind states, on command, and to be able to sustain it. the ability to focus and empty your mind (two very different things) is a superpower.2. ego. learn to control your ego. my fav example: your ego should be in the passenger seat, or the backseat. fuck, stick him in the trunk if you have to, but for fuck sakes, not the drivers seat. it goes much deeper than this, but i think you get what im trying to say.3. shadow. learn to face your shadow. know thyself. dont pretend that nothing is there. everyone has skeletons in the closet. you need to see yourself for who you truly are. only then, can the work begin. again this is an oversimplification. if these prerequisites are not met, the way forward will be very difficult. sure you may still see some progress, but if you are honest with yourself, not to the level which you desire. many "traps" lay ahead on the path, and if you cannot "see clearly", you will get lost. sure some people can find their way without doing any of these things, because of natural talent, but they will never be able to move forward, to accomplish what they want. think of it like a musical instrument. you need to tune it, before you play your piece. in this case, its your mind you need to tune. you need to keep emotions in check and you need to know yourself. any progress in these areas, will turbo boost any other work you try. take it or leave it, thats my two cents.

>>42747012not fake but ultra gay
>>42747012Meditation (+visualization) and shadow integration is basically the foundation of all magical and spiritual practices. Know thyself and control your mind. If people struggle with regular meditation they can try adjacent things like the Silva mind control method.
