he had a number of paranormal experiences, including being invaded by some sort of being that he sometimes thought was god, aliens, or the soviet union testing out telepathic transmissions on him
"I experienced an invasion of my mind by a transcendentally rational mind, as if I had been insane all my life and suddenly I had become sane,"
here's an interview where he talks about it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=af2q_u0Fu8I
thoughts?
He's one of my favorite authors of all time. Love all of his books. He wrote three books regarding what you mentioned. The first is called "Valis", and it's really good.
He really did keep a huge journal about his experience. It's brought up a lot in Valis as Horselover Fatts sort of self written bible. He based that character after himself.
I believe what happened is he had a weird vision (in Valis he seems to think that it's some sort of god like super computer or God itself) where he was told his son had a certain disease or ailment. His son had been sick for a while and the doctors couldn't figure out what he had. Turns out his vision was correct and saved his son.
Really interesting stuff. Good post. Anyone into sci fi paranormal stuff should read a few of his books. They're all really good.

yeah that's stuff I've read/heard about him. It's all really fascinating honestly. heard another story about a time when he was young (20's I think) and he woke up to see an older man standing over his bed. He told his wife at the time (I think it might've been Kleo) not to worry, because it was him. Far later he had a dream where he was standing over the bed of his younger self.
there's a guy doing a graphic novel biography about him right now that I'm really excited about. I think it's supposed to come out sometime next year, not sure though
>>18352705
he might have got a upgrade. these things cause instability in most. if he managed to keep his shit together he might have gained some insight or become more articulate, maybe his long term memory became sharper who knows
maybe he was just crazy
I wanna make a new school of magick.
who wants to help me?
>>18352559
I want to base my school of magick around economic theory and money.
I want to incorporate elements of both chaos and order.
we could make a lot of money selling our books to people looking for deeper meaning in their lives.
>>18352584
Interested, how will you utilize this for magic?

If you are fucking yr gf and you both cum at the same time does that mean that it's true love or that yr soul mates or something?
Happened to me last night
>>18352322
Come on guys. Ik you dont have gfs but what do the freemasons say abt shit like this
>>18352398
Yeah I'm pretty sure that's what it means. I've been seeing off and on for a year who is my soul mate but neither of us is quite ready for a relation ship yet.
We still hang out and messaroubd though and we cum at the same time. She can sense when I'm about to aswell, weird stuff.
I would like to learn sorcery but I am also very curious about Black Magic
" The Sorcerer is characterized by an inherent need to explore the deepest, darkest parts of his or her self. Few are willing to do so, and even fewer can readily accept what they find when delving into the hidden regions of their own psyche. The Sorcerer, however, finds the pain and effort to be well worth it. The realization of one’s primal desires, obscure passions, and emotionality brings great power, and raw power is what a sorcerer strives for. As such, most Sorcerers adopt an aggressive stance in their magical works. They tend to ignore whether or not they use their power for “good” or “evil, and often dismiss such concepts from their lives altogether. "

Go to /pol/. They worship the fallen chaos god known as kek, he has prevailed over the Satanic gods used by the elite.

When confronting a ghost, strip naked and masturbate furiously to gain and maintain dominance.
>>18352234
thats a brilliant bit of info
any particular porn type anon?
>>18352238
If you can't even masturbate without porn how can you hope to gain dominance in the heat of the moment?
Can anyone help me design a saucer craft? I know almost everything about them, but if there is something I don't, I feel I may find it with interaction here. Thank you. Also, the image is of an ARV model which was one of the earliest designs utilizing spinning superconductors to make the counter gravity. They are for the most part decommissioned now.

>Some useful tips before posting:
-New readers should post that they're offering readings and what information they require from a querent.
-Look for their posts in the thread to determine what's needed and before posting, check if they finished reading already.
-Some readers will refuse to do certain readings - respect that choice. Also, bullshit queries will get bullshit answers.
-An "air query" can be made to no one in particular, but no one in particular may answer!
-Avoid making the same question over and over and/or to different readers, this may lead to more confusion than clarification
-Please refer to the Dream General threads for dream interpretation

AIR QUERY
What the fuck kind of entity is around me, can anyone see anything.
What the fuck is it up to. Please.

First for eternal Hijinks :^)
I'm surprised someone hasn't posted this yet.
What do you think /x/?

>>18352037
As much as I want this to be true, it seems like just more clickbait
>>18352037
Neat source.
>>18352094
Maybe.
I checked out the website, and it's not some tinfoil hat conspiracy site. Pretty much just run of the mill news; entertainment, politics, sports ect.
Hello /x/,
Just a few questions from someone just beginning to find interest in hermetic philosophy.
I started by reading the Emerald Tablet of Hermes then immediately picked up The Kybalion.
My question is what can I expect about the other three starter books in pic related? Does anyone have a recommendation on reading order?
Finally, is this stuff relate-able to Buddhist spiritual practices and Meditation?
Messed up picture use this one
>>18351966
>Emerald Tablet of Hermes
Must have been a quick read it's only like 14 lines long.
>Kybalion
Not Hermetic.
It would help if you didn't post a thumbnail.
>>18351976
It says Hermetic the cover. Like I said I'm just starting with this stuff
What are /x/'s thoughts on and experiences with ESP/telepathy.
Sometimes im thinking of a certain topic, and my brother would bring it up later that day or viceversa. Of course, i have no control over it. Or it may be explained because we're brothers and think similar things
>>18351936
I have ESP myself.
Once I thought about shoving my balls down your mother's throat. And the next day it happened! Crazy right!
I don't know if this is the board to go to ask this stuff about but here I go.
I 'inherited' a rock collection from my great grandfather some years ago, and it has some cool stuff in it.
Over the years, tho, it seems that my family has been plagued with bad luck.
We have lost jobs, lost family, through death or feelings.
I found this in the collection, and I got paranoid, just a silly vial of black sand, right?
>>18351933
Then I took a look at the label.
Guess great grandpappy gave me his chicken scratch writing skills.
>>18351940
oh shit...
book a flight
>>18352348
Is it really that bad?
Is there any objective and demonstrable proof for the existence of the supernatural?
Objectively prove that you exist.
Protip: You can't.
So how the fuck you gonna ask dumb questions?
>>18351939
I think therefore I am.
>>18351916
Everywhere you look.
So what's up with these clowns? Is this a cult of some kind or social experiment?
... or something more, *ahem,* paranormal?
copycats who want to get on the news or scare people

Copiers of what? DmPranksProductions?
