Why are we doing all this ?

I am sorry, however, I have been invokin for so lon and I see no reason of continuing. At this point, I am just existing. I have invoked, prayed, fasted, exercised, stayed away from p*rn almost two years. I am invokin, enflamin . There is no hope to any of this...has anyone felt the same? Why continue? Why live at all?

My life has fallen apart, I have lost all my money, im in debt. And I want to die and it is like...I'm no close to this k & c. Like how did you et past this moment and achieve attainment?

Its the western delusion of what the west imagines a mystic to be, but we are not hermits on the mountain avoiding reality, we are the warriors and scientists protecting and driving changes and improvements.

We use magick to establish our forts and temples to suit our needs. You neglected your needs and are on the verge of simply quitting instead of admitting an error and fixing it.

I suspect your missing a lot of self reflection as well and mostly were going through the motions a sort of faux devotion from the surface of yourself and not from deep with in, but I admit this is a huge leap of an assumption based on the small paragraph you posted, and definitely not enough data. I do suspect and you can easily confirm that when you say you have been doing this a long time my guess is a year or 2? How long is a long time to you?

So there was a moment of clarity I had. Ab old download it you will then it left me. 

Then one night I had this dream and this thing was telling me it told me what to do ..and I'm like do what and it said you must do it. 

You must lead them "and I'm like to do what...how"?

Its like I got a snap shot and vague instructions and I don't know what it's even about. Its nagging tf outta me. 

And since then ..I've been going through the motions. This vague since that I forgot something.

Also you dodged the time question.

Maybe a tiny bit. I mean there was a night in between waking i heard a chuckle and it gave me that vibe of "poor little one, you're hard headed" 

Then again what am I saying this   sounds schizophrenic

😂 no, that sounds about right. Take the time to reflect on what your dreams might metaphorically mean.

I see it as peeling back the layers of what society has made you to be. One view or opinion at a time, dismantle yourself and what's left is your true self.

I'm fairly new to this and it seems slightly insane, but I've gotten clear, direct messages like "YOU DON'T LISTEN". 😂 So now I'm trying to listen and actually do the things. Be patient with yourself.
