Hehe, glad I give off the aura of someone that would be able to help with that, but I have no clue!.. First thing that comes up:

What is their motive, what do they think they're going to get out of it?
What energy are they really summoning by channeling into the archetype of Merlin the Magician?


You see, I did bring up the archetype of the magician within my last post, but I referenced it in tandem with the joker. One may see a magician from many different perspectives, all depending on their current struggle.


Though, I'm curious. Why does it matter to you? How does it affect you in your growth // how does it affect you in your emotions?

Well I guess we can wait and see. But I am curious and yes the energy will reflect something pertaining to his own creation and magic perhaps..hehe

Curiosity is what bought me to you to ask. When someone moves from channelling, AA Michael to Merlin one has to be open to curiosity I would think..

Never said asking was bad!! :P

Interesting, AA Michael to the Magician. Alright, well, as there is always the underlying archetype of the Magician...

My guess is that they went from trying to protect themselves from the space that they're in - from the energies around them, to trying to get to the source of that energy and turn it into something they'd rather have.


The path between Binah and Kether (tree of life) are associated with the Magician, bringing life into understanding.. Seeing why things are the way they currently are, seeing the cycle of conflict that one has been in without necessarily realizing... Interestingly, similar to what I was saying - the game behind the game.

Is there a difference between any one of us to you,
a difference that stems beyond meaning that is held
and as easily stripped from all of us?
I just aim to have a right answer. Brief answer because
That's my acting on, that i'm not talkative.

Regard,

I think I understand why the Buddha somewhat stressed letting go of concepts, beliefs and ideas as when, quite a good long while ago, I stumbled into what could be described as all potential and it looked as if everything that ever was, is and will be was there... forever. Later I realised that was my own perception, and it's limits as it were (as a reflection), based on the ideas, concepts and beliefs I still held gave me that view whilst also realising that the feeling within that stumbling into, the absolute love, peace and stillness, was actually much more abiding.

In this respect I feel we reflect our own highest tendencies on that which is ever more higher, wider, deeper etc and therefore, almost logically, it is the dropping of tendencies which might be of import to being higher, wider and deeper.

True. Yet not everything is sweet. That's probably the start of complication. Are
we more up up than Kids to answer as should, so we are going to try up as grown
ups, are we going to cherish the higher, wider and deeper and non the tendencys
as much, tendencys that could be humanship. Yup.-

I feel so fortunate to have been schooled in Buddhism - experience first, words later. So much more beautiful and lessens the chances of being fooled (not completely of course )

They then ask "What is the meaning, when it is all devoid of meaning?" They hear no answer, so they begin to beg, "Take me back to the place before this suffering". And in those words, they hear the answer from within them, the breathing that wasn't breathing they've ever noted.

A game within a game, a life within a life. Continuously breaking into deeper meaninglessness.

drugs are fun. prob best not to post online about drug induced experiences tho
