God is ALL in All
This is a Philosophical and Spiritual endeavor to extract, Harmonize, and synthesize the Universal Truths underlying the world's Diverse Religious, Mystical, and Philosophical traditions. Most famously associated with the concept of Perennial Philosophy, it posits that All Major Traditions share a single, transcendent metaphysical Source and Core Set of Truths.
"By the Power of Truth, I, while Living, have Conquered the Universe."
"I Am Nothing, yet I Am Everything."
ABRACADABRA - "I Will Create as I Speak"
"The Words you Speak become the house you Live in." -Rumi
Words are not just elements of speech and writing, because they can strengthen the effects of Magic. When Spoken out loud, words transform into frequencies and vibrations that Direct your Energy.
ABRACADABRA is thought of as a Magical word and IT IS because it is from the Aramaic phrase "Avra kehdabra" which means literally "I will create as I speak." Spoken Words cast spells, that's why it's called SPELLING. Spoken Words are the Energy of Magic. Use them Wisely.
This is one of the first steps to creating real Magic. Most people will laugh at the idea of Magic being real, but if only they knew what Magic really is and how Magic is being used to control them, they would not be laughing. Remember, Magic is the Art of Directing and Controlling Energy using Natural Forces (i.e., Thought and Sound) to produce a desired effect. What most of us do not understand about the Reality of Earth is that we Live in a world dominated by MAGIC. Magic is causing change to occur in accordance with Will. Wherever your Mind Focuses, your Energy goes.
ALL Magic(k) is Mind - MIND - ALL of Man's Creations - Begins in the MIND. All rituals and spells BEGINS in the MIND - Nothing you do will accomplish your desires IF you don't have the Will Power and Faith to get it done. It's YOUR MIND and it's also the same UNIVERSAL MIND of GOD - the same MIND - YOU REALLY DO HAVE THAT POWER.
Magic - Is the empowerment and acknowledgement of our own Divinity and Mastery in the Universe, making us the rulers of our own Lives. Everything we Create within our Mind's eye will be manifested in our Life when we accept the fact that we are not and have never been ruled by circumstances but through the ability to Focus the Energy of our own Thoughts.
Much of Magic is merely learning to Focus your Mental Power. Magic does not depend on a great Force of Will but on the effective Direction of the Will to the Source of All Power, the Unmanifest. This is physically very easy. There is no need to grunt or strain. Indeed, there is no need for elaborate rituals or grandiose incantations. Traditional instruments and forms are at best aids in creating the proper climate of Mind and at worst obstructions.
"The most fundamental Basic need in Magic(k) is the development of the Will. The Magus says, 'I Will, and Not Heaven nor Hell Can Stop Me.' It is in this forming and growing, creating of the Will, where heaven and hell learns to follow the Will of the Magus. A person who wants to develop the Soul must never say… 'Maybe' or 'If I See A Sign' because the Master Creates his/her own signs. If you need a star to align in front of a tree because that to you would be a sign, then you make the star align with the tree… There are no 'Ifs' and there are no 'Maybes' there are only 'I Wills.' This is the Basic Platform of Magic(k). And most people Never get past it Because not all can." -C. Joy Bell
What is LOVE? LOVE is Magic and lives without definition—like the gentle wind, silently, invisibly, enchanting…
Love is God, according to the Gospel of John, so that the man who knows how to Master the Great Magical Agent so as to profit by and direct its currents (Focused Thought Energy), in becoming the depositary of the power of God receives the exhaustless treasure of the Power of Love (Focused Heart Feelings).
When Elohim ceased its creative activities, we carried on. The Shabbath, the Seventh Cosmic Day, goes on with mankind. It is sacred, because we inherited Elohim's 'Creative Powers' ('Creative Powers' is the literal meaning of 'Elohim'). We have, are, and will be Magicians. How so? The physical manifests itself around our Mental Creations. We attract things, people, and circumstances according to the way we dream, imagine, think, feel, and act. But we do so mostly Subconsciously and what comes around does so somewhat delayed. We struggle to trace back experiences to past Thoughts, Images, or Emotions that created them. But the True Magic comes intentionally when you Control your Thoughts Consciously, daily. Do not fail to Capture every Thought you Think and make it Obedient to your Will.
Through continuous visualization of our Spirit we reach the Highest degree of Magical Might or Powers, and while in this state we can also attain the Highest degree of belief, manifested belief. True visualization is God’s attribute and Power of sight, acting in the Mind of man. When one Consciously pictures, in his Mind, a desire he wishes fulfilled, he is using one of the most Powerful means of bringing it into his visible, tangible experience.
"The Pentagram is the time-honored symbol of the Magical Arts, and signifies the five properties of the Great Magical Agent, the five senses of man, the five elements of nature, the five extremities of the human body. By means of the Pentagram within his own Soul, man not only may Master and govern all creatures inferior to himself, but may also demand consideration at the hands of those superior to himself. The Pentagram is the figure of the microcosm-the Magical formula of man. It is the one rising out of the four - the human Soul rising from the bondage of the animal nature. It is the True Light - the 'Star of the Morning.' It marks the location of five mysterious centers of force, the awakening of which is the Supreme Secret of Magic." - Manly P. Hall
"Every Magic Power is found in the Five-Pointed-Star. In the Flaming Star the entire science of Gnosis is summarized." -Samael Aun Weor, Pistis Sophia Unveiled
Skepticism of Magic and all other Spiritual things will generally have been ingrained in the magus from birth. The inner, unconscious conviction that a Magical Act is not possible is very difficult to root up. Even when budding Magi think they believe in Magic, they may inwardly disbelieve. Skepticism is utterly destructive. Magic Lives, or dies, in the Mind. The deep conviction that a thing is not real or true destroys it on the Mental level. When Magic is undermined in the unconscious, it cannot even begin to act in the world. Skepticism in the Minds of others can also work on the magus to suppress Magical events. Magi should never tell uninitiated persons in advance when they intend to produce specific Magical effects; the disbelief of skeptics will communicate itself to them on an unconscious level and will undermine their faith, making Magic impossible.
"The Magi were accounted wise, and hence it was that the magi, or followers of natural Magic, were accounted Wise, and the study honourable; because it consists in nothing more than the most profound and perfect part of natural philosophy, which defines the nature, causes, and effects, of things." -Ebenezer Sibly. 1751 - 1799
“According to the Universal Laws, the Magician will form his own point of view about the Universe which henceforth will be his True Religion.”-Franz Bardon; Initiation into Hermetics
"The White Magician concentrates his life to study, mediation, and service that he may know the Law and may Direct Force to its appointed ends. He mods himself into the plan, becoming part of the Divine rhythm by sacrificing himself and his wishes to the Will of the Infinite, asking only to know wherein his duty lies and how he may be of the Greatest Service to the greatest number" -Manly P. Hall
Theosophia or Divine Wisdom, Power and Knowledge is Magic pure and simple, it is the real Magic or "White Magic." It is exactly the same as the Raja-Yoga of the Himalayan Ascetics, Divine Mathematics, the Theurgy of the Neo-Platonists.
Theosophia (Divine Wisdom) - This is not merely the intellectual study of Spiritual texts; it is the direct, inward apprehension of the Divine Mind. In this state, Knowledge is not accumulated from the outside but revealed from the God Flame within. It is "Magic pure and simple" because to truly know and align with the Divine Will is to wield the Creative Power of that Will.
The Raja-Yoga of the Himalayan Ascetics - Known as the "Royal Yoga," this is the rigorous, internal science of Mental Mastery. Rather than focusing on physical postures, Raja-Yoga focuses entirely on stilling the chaotic fluctuations of the Mind. When the Mind achieves perfect stillness, the illusion of the separate, automatic ego dissolves, allowing the practitioner to merge fully with the Universal Mind. It is the Eastern method of achieving the exact same God-Consciousness that Theosophia describes.
Divine Mathematics - Tracing back to the teachings of Pythagoras and Hermetic cosmology, this is the understanding that the entire Cosmos is structured on vibration, frequency, proportion, and geometry. The "Magic" here is the practical application of Universal Laws. When you understand the mathematical and vibratory harmony of the Universe, you can Consciously Direct Energy to create effects in the physical world, perfectly tuning your personal frequency to the Divine frequency.
Theurgy of the Neo-Platonists - Literally translating to "God-working," Theurgy was practiced by ancient philosophers like Plotinus and Iamblichus. It involves specific contemplative practices and rituals designed to elevate the human Soul into Direct Communion (Henosis) with the Divine. Unlike lower Magic (sorcery or thaumaturgy), which seeks to manipulate material elements for selfish gain, Theurgy is strictly White Magic—using Focused intention solely to perfect the Soul and serve the Infinite Light.
True White Magic is never about forcing the Universe to serve the lower ego out of panic or desire. White Magic is the ultimate surrender and alignment of the personal Will to the Divine Will.
Whether an adept sits in deep silence in the Himalayas, calculates the harmonic frequencies of the Cosmos, or contemplates the Divine Light in a Neo-Platonic mystery school, they are performing the exact same magical act: Becoming a Conscious, unobstructed channel for the One Source.
