As of late people have gotten into these highly intellectual discussions on this board and while that is all good and great it really is just talk. Talking and reading aren't doing! As an alternative I shall present an open challenge: For one week MAYBE this week do one of the following:
1) Engage in a taboo activity. I don't need to know what -- I don't even care what, but it can't be something you can tell your closest friend or it doesn't count. It has to be socially unacceptable or potentially damaging to your reputation if found out. The purpose of this is to expand your perception of the human state in a very real way and violate your own preconceived notions. For best effect it should be something you fear yourself -- anyone whom says they don't fear anything at all merely lies about it.
2) Offer to do a ritual for someone in need. Why is this here? Most so-called Satanists are pretty damn selfish and cowardly. This combats both ideas and teaches about selflessness and empathy. You will be aiding a friend and likewise demonstrate what is enjoyable about your path directly to them. This CANNOT be someone that accepts your path at all -- close friends, wives, girlfriends, and boyfriends are out. True Satanism is about being a value-added religion not about preaching. Show, do, and demonstrate your worth. If you cannot reward the worthy with your power you have nothing at all. One cannot lead from the back of the line -- if you truly are powerful you can understand my point completely. If not then consider this lesson your most important.
3) Revisit something you enjoyed in the past that you no longer do for some 'reason'. Ignore the reason and for the next week act like you never left it. Fully engage it and be consumed by it. Regardless of what you choose the results should be pretty cathartic. The purpose of this is to sort of re-live that period in your life for the purpose of determining your path now. Sometimes due to the nature of life we get distracted from our core -- consider it a self-bonding moment designed to purge the worthless traits of your being.
4) Embrace chaos --- do exactly the opposite of that which you would normally do for a week. This one can be really fun sometimes, but also fear and thought provoking. If you are a Satanist you have no limits... set yourself free... experience your humanity to the extreme... If you drink, smoke, or do drugs stop completely for this period. Destroy your coping mechanisms so that you can truly savor the spoils of this act. If you are highly logical and calculated do everything with impulse. See where it takes you and ride the wave...
The true nature of the left hand path is in these experiences -- in the joy of chaos, destruction, and rejection of the mainstream influences in your life. The real silent goal of Satanism is to reject your humanity and personality -- trivialize it basically... and thus become as a god, but by polarizing your experiences you truly can understand the hidden meaning of every action. By removing yourself from your own natural order you exalt yourself toward the daemonic and strengthen your core since you are not merely clinging to illusions. I think I gave you enough to chew on... As far as comments on this post please keep them just to reports or questions -- there is no need to debate the nature of these experiments just do them or not at your whim. Most of these are things I've done myself or I am working on so I am merely sharing a bit of my own process.
In nomine domini dei nostri Satanas Luciferi excelsi. Amen.
