Purpose For The Hga Options

So as I was theorizing on this very subject after reading The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage and doing a bunch more research on this notion, it left me to wonder if contacting your Holy Guardian Angel (HGA) was the main priority or top goal to achieve through one's spiritual journey and if not, then why not? Maybe it's a notion interpreted differently by others or perhaps unbelieved entirely, although if one is to entertain the ideas of what occurs after contact with the HGA, a new life so to speak, would be introduced for the individual as well as sharper and a more accurate ideology of their life.

I can't imagine it would be an easy task to gain 'the knowledge and conversation of the HGA' but had someone successfully accomplished it, wouldn't that person be quite different and significantly more competent in certain areas? Not to mention more in control of their own lives, actions and morals?

What are you perspectives on the matter? Have any of you ever undertaken the task to contact your HGA, if so what happened? Did you succeed?

Any input whatsoever considering the idea of this topic would be beneficial to hear! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mf_popcorn.gif)

that's a lot of dropped names...

I'm really not even sure where to start in addressing your comments. you say I am mixing things too much, I would argue that you are failing to draw obvious parallels... but what's the point of such a discussion? It is possible, though not common, to fall victim to the fate of reading too much, and thinking too little. Not that there is really such a thing as reading too much per say, but that one can fill themselves with facts & figures and fail to see any forests.
but then again, it's all a matter of perspective.

anyway, we differ in viewpoint probably too much to actually go over it on a point by point basis. But I am vexed by trying to figure out what you meant in this comment:

How ever, nowadays, in Crowley and Chaos most of the Archmagus explain that what you call the great work is in fact a magnum opus.

what does translating things into or out of latin have to do with anything?
