Uniqueness, All Magicians are unique Options

Remember in magic ... no two magicians realities will be the same. What we perceive in our own unique reality is how the world around us reacts to our own consciousness and to our own 'magic'. Thus the resultant outcome of any working will always be different to each and every one of us.

What is perceived as fair, right, necessary, mandatory, unimportant for one magician may be so in his or her reality but it doesn't necessarily follow it will apply the same to another magician.

The only common/same/recurring variable between two magicians in everything is the visual reality which we all reside in ... the reality we call planet earth/the earth plane ... the interface which all human consciousness is connected to. The interface which has the visual and sensory appearance of being the same to all who are connected to it.

However, two magicians could evoke the SAME entity in exactly the SAME way; using the SAME ritual with the SAME tools;using the same evocations/banishings/invocations/whatever ... speaking the words exactly the same ... connecting with the same entity and asking the same thing of the entity ....

But the results can be totally different .... and often are.

Thus, all rituals/spells/whatever could best be described as guidelines only ... outcomes could best be deemed as being unpredictable. We can only anticipate/expect a desired finale ... but we should be prepared for anything happening ...

That is the true 'magic' of experience.

Then when you have a result and it is written in a journal you would be foolish to expect the exact same outcome the next time .... applying the same principle it is likely the unexpected will call at the door again.

No need to apologise ... it's not a hijacking ... you've made a very relevant point about the ego and trying to lose it ...

I 'reduced' my ego a few times too ... a path fraught with danger and trapdoors ... as I found that my 'seperate ego'/ego was aware what I was trying to do and the more I tried to reduce the ego ... the more it created cunning diversion which led me further away from the goal!!!

I have since given up ... and have decided that to live in this mad, crazy world and interact with others ... you must have the ego. I try to tether it ... and use it as it uses my spirit!!!!

It is possible to gain snippets of the oneness ... but as for having the oneness 24/7 until the day you die ... I think you need to be on a mountain/away from other humans/away from technology!
