Essential to Witchcraft

Post # 1
Here is a question for all those who are interested:

If I asked to you what reality was how would you define it?

Is it what we see, feel, smell, touch, hear? Is it beyond us or reachable to us? And if you were born with none of these senses would that mean you have no reality? Is it our perception? Or possibly unexplainable? Is it what we make or is it set in stone?

In my opinion and experience I have found those that can figure out this question have a much higher chance of successfully spell casting. I'm interested in hearing all of your thoughts and theories. If all magick revolves around reality, wouldn't it be a good thing to figure out what reality is?

Have at it :D

I feel like reality is different for every plane of existence. On the astral, things are much more different than the physical. While their reality would be more "feeling" instead of other sense, ours is more of all the senses, but less feeling. I suppose reality is our perception of things, and it changes as we change. When I was younger I thought reality is the life I'm living with seeing things, and now i see it depends on the person and how they feel about everything that's going on.

I hope that made sense, as I'm not the best typer sometimes.

So if we had no senses would we have no reality?

That's not what I had said. Everyone has the sense of "feeling" but if it was gone we would still somehow know. I guess you could call it "knowing" which isn't a sense, it's just a thing we all have.

A true reality doesn't exist, it is an illusion. Each person has their own unique reality due to their perceptions of the world. Some people agree on what reality is because they have similar views, others do not. The only way to become closest to finding truth is by knowing themselves so completely that they can see past perception. But for the 99% of the rest of people, perception colors their world so very much that there is no escaping it.

As cliche as it is reality is what you make it, so if it is an illusion then so be it. If is "hard life smacking you in the face" so be it. My reality? Whatever I feel is emotionally, spiritually, physically, and mentally right. That's just me though... Sorry if it sounds a bit fortune cookie-ish.

All my Love,

as your friend stated, it is a feel.. a taste.. and not everyone have the capacity to reach it.. not everyone is destined for it.. and actually how strong do you hold your truth? how do you know what you reach is the end goal in spirituality? what does your heart says?
spirituality is not a doubt.
it is a certainty.
when you reach there is a certainty.
dont be confused of doubt and certainty when it came on your mind, you do know the differences. search, and if you find a path.. take it till you reach the top.. if it doesnt take you anywhere.. it is a false path..

of all in the world.. there is many path to spirituality..
but the reality is it their end is only "soul" ..
find one that surpass that :)

the path.. is too many.. but a searcher is helped.. he is not alone.. just go with the destiny..

a hint.. i am sorry if i offended some of you.. but hear me this, some path locks you in demons way.. which is actually lower than spirituality path..

while in spirituality, there is a path taking you to your "soul" as the end of path and there is also some path taking you higher than that..
why would you go there? well it is a secret.. :)
you yourself would know what your heart wants..

sure some of demonic ways and spirituality is combined.. or swayed.. as demonic way can unlock you to your soul.. or spiritual path swayed by demons..

a demonic way actually uses the help of demon..
while spiritual path use the power of human and universe..
and actually human is more powerful than demon and the universe, its just that we dont know how to use our power..

find the light.. what light? if you ask the genies user/demonic ways.. they sometimes see someone/something looks so bright.. that is a living saint..
why do they look so bright? it is because they are on a level higher than those who see them.. eventhough they were unlocked to the spiritual world.. they are lower and hopeless

Reality is what YOU make of it NOT what others define it as. Magic has 'nothing' to do with reality. Magic is the 'essence' of the supernatural, that which lurks beneath the surface of what you see, hear, touch or taste. Magic is that force that is here and can be 'tapped' by those who can 'feel' the power beyond the eyes, ears or touch....
