93,

I follow - to an extent and in my own way - the tree of life as a guide to training my mind and reaching my idea of enlightenment in general keeping with Thelemic belief. Tipharet is about the halfway point, about the time - for me - when knowing one's True Will and listening to one's HGA (higher self / daimon / voice of god / etc as metaphors) becomes much more commonplace. Essentially I have seen the universe as a hyper interconnected place, have enjoyed the "hippie" stage of ones spiritual journey, and have become successful in the practice of magick. I still am battling my egoism and semi-trained mind and have a good distance to go, but - in keeping with my system - I'm farther than the average Joe.
