A thelemic view of consciousness (part 2)

Will is the force of manifestation and Love the force that relates (unites) the manifested.


Will & Love are complementary and thus the strong force of ConsciousNess.


The force of Will & Love expresses as harmony, beauty & joy – the lack of it as discontinuity, sadness and filth.


The force of Will & Love might be measured through weaknesses, but woe him who tries to measure it.


Where Will is divided, weaknesses arise.


Will cannot be willed, as there are no two Wills.


Will has no cause, nor can it be deduced from effects – Will is cause and effect, both are united through Love.


Will is absolute – unless subjected to moral & purpose, or otherwise fixed in time/space.


Seeking the origins of Will and the construction plans of creation is seeking to avoid self-responsibility.


There is lots of talk about free will – probably motivated by the hope to get wishes fulfilled – but where there is Will there is neither wish nor hope.


Will & Love is also the force of imagination & inspiration – both are essential for self-design and have to be – as Will & Love – unlimited.


Everyone is (or should be) his own creator and has thus infinite self-design possibilities – each of them having, when motivated by the Will & Love to realize oneself, the potential to bring about a self-image wherein all creations complement each other.

There is active and passive self-design, the active projects and the passive reflects a self-image, both complement each other through Will & Love.


In the reflection Will & Love may be localized (reasoned, moralized, etc), but that brings about reaction-images which are not complementary.


In the projection is no space for reasons & morals – however there might be a lack of Will & Love that weakens the reflection.


To weak self-images, strong projections may appear as a threat– but that should not restrain the projection, otherwise the force of Will & Love gets dispersed.


The same happens when the projection is tested, since the test affects the reflection - moreover, there is no test for perfection.


Nor is the projection to be charged with expectations, since they get amplified by the reflection, causing divisions & multiplications which interrupt the interactivity of micro- & macro cosmos and fracture the self-image.


The projection has to be free of expectation, reasons or other restrains, in order to enable the reflection to complement the self-image according to its Will & Love.


Self-design enhances the awareness of the Selfrealisation process. The awareness gets impaired when the self-image lacks lust & joy, is loaded and distorted with emotions, mistreated with causalities & moralities, subjugated to parasitical Selfrealisation-attempts and/or infected by the possession virus.


Disorder arises when the Self-designer, instead of exercising his will, represents and executes the wills of “others” – adopts handed down identity rites – or subjugates himself to commercial, religious, ideological and collective identification schemes.


Self-design is subject to Love & Will, the strong force of ConsciousNess. The lack of it could be regarded as a personal debility-period, were there not the many representatives of the weak forces who, for lack of own orders, attach themselves to those of the strong. A relationship (in collective-images represented by rulers and serfs) that seems inevitable, since the strong and the weak forces are complementary and attempts to change this relativity are its balance-mechanisms in order for everything to remain as it is.


But the self-designer ought not to rely on such “auto-controls”, since he is responsible for every aspect of his order – and his weak and their weaknesses are part of it.


One manner of self-design is to arrange the components of the self-image according to their capability to complement each other. In such case it is of little consequence what its reference points are called, or which shapes, scales & quantities they present, since every unity is infinite. Nevertheless, it is recommendable to keep the reference points interchangeable and in small numbers, in order to obtain a flexible and clear self-image.


In rigid structures a reference point might receive disproportionate attributes and thus a priority that provokes comparisons which impede the interactivity of the components and the harmony of the self-image.


Ill ordered self-images may be rearranged with sex and drugs – but with care, as sex can alter the pole positions of the psycho-somatic relativity, whereas every drug has a particular potential and amplifies the intentions it is taken with.


Drugs can also be used to stimulate the imagination that helps furnishing the self-image – which ought to be splendorous, as it intensifies the awareness.


When motivated by the lust & joy of existence, self-design takes place Here/Now and has thus unlimited possibilities.


To claim a self-image being objectively true, is a lie and a fatal one, not because it hides an objective truth – as some of its gurus claim – but because it paralyses the creativity and makes the creator a victim, or prisoner, of his creation.


Self-design with the help of teachers and teachings seems to be the easiest, but is more complicated, since most of them have rules & restrictions regarding Selfrealization, not to mention, that every teacher has & represents a particular self-image. Moreover, how is one to realize oneself through the images of others, if ones does not know one’s own? And there is of course the risk of getting caught in parasitic images and in the traps of self-denial – that is: to be something else than one is.

One cannot change oneself – but one can realize oneself.


The notion of changing oneself is self-denial and most common in Dualism, because of its presumption, that the viewpoints which relate its manifestations, are having different time/space positions. A misconception that leads – due to the counter-dynamics of the (dualistic) R/P fields – to the assumption that one could be different than one is, and that one state of existence is imperfect and another better – or at least: more advantageous.


There are more perverse ways of self-denial, like the Judaic/Christian concept of Homo being the crown of a creation whose aim it is, that he subjugates its manifestations – and thus himself.


Another currently popular self-denial is the Occidental evolution- & selection dogma – despite that it should lead, according to its own logic, to the realization that every man & woman is what he/she projects/reflects and that therefore no one can be elevated or put down, improve, worsen or otherwise be changed.


The, in every R/P system common (because most simple) manner of self-denial, is the causality concept, according to which a manifestation is either the cause, or the effect of another manifestation. A notion that not only undermines the self-response-ability of Homo, but makes him to a victim as well, even more so, when he tries to find causes for his existence and begins to reason it – and thus himself.
