I'm just curious -- because all of my friends who practice tend to dabble and believe that all beliefs are legit -- what have been your path experiences. (I'm guessing many of you have "played the field" and still do?) Any "bonded for lifers" out there?

My past explorations (and I have affection for all of them -- as a Chaote I still tend to practice ALL of them) were, all of the above, but aside from Chaos, my biggest journey has been (and remains) Tantric Buddhist Magick and Taoism (Daoism).

Philosophy > Deism > Humanism > Martial Arts/Chi phenomena > Eastern thought > Introduced to Necronomicon > Sumerian Metaphysics > Demonology/Satanism > Demonaltry > General Dark > Chaos > ChaoGnosis (damn, that was a trip) > Christian Charismatics > Mathematics/Einstein's view of Existence > Gematria > Open Hand Chaos Magicks

I never really knew what element I was, when it came to general metaphysics. Now that everything pretty much went towards Gematrics, alot of my energies that I utilized were open-handed magicks. Instead of doing the LBRH with the god names, for example, I would conceptualize chanting pi to 1080 places- 360 degrees for each circle (That kept it powerful, neutral, and still correct). Or, sometimes when trying to imagine the change of the elements, I think of the quadratic change of the number i.

All my magicks have now become Cosmic/Math/Chaos... Because I know that anything found with the neutrality of gematrics and mathematical metaphysics would be a finding free from arbitrary bias that other energies may cause. It's really useful when working with energies of Order, Law, and Judgment.
