There's the saying, attributed to Arthur C. Clarke, that 'any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic'. It occurred to me recently that this is because people tend to think about magic as if it were an advanced form of technology. Magic is thought of as something that a person wields, like a tool. Magical people do things like shoot lightning bolts from a wand. I think that real magic is usually not so much like that, not so defined or easily controlled. And it doesn't depend so much on potions or incantations, it flows from who you are. Less like Harry Potter and more like Carrie, but a lot less conscious and obvious. |

You are not your thoughts...
Meditation + magic go hand in hand too. Control of the mind and inner peace is a good virtue to cope with having a higher understanding of the world. Especially when you abandon the flock and left to ur own devices in a sense. . . |

Magic is trying affect the world with our minds. I later realized there is a natural process that exists to achieve this, it is called "action". |

hihihi, that pun. It must be no coincidence to you that the buddhism term for 'action' is karma. |

hahaha. Indeed, black magic is synonymous with bad karma as white magic is with good karma. If we do good deeds in this life, we will better the lives of those to come after our death. |

^ Hehe, that is so true. |

^^ Well, if Manley P. Hall said it, and WakingNomad dreamed it, then it must be happening, right? |

It's soon only 274999 years left after all! You have to look at it from the bright side! |
