Good to have you back, @'Amir Alzzalam!
So you're more into parthenogenesis, in your path? (ducks and runs)

A rabbihole starter kit.Quite insightful

As I peruse I contemplate the connection between mithraism and gnosticism with Christianity and wonder about a similar chart of native American religions. (North and South)
Well first off the subtitle is 'Šayṭānist' which is different than 'Shaitanist' (which I assume you meant).Hello Amir
When I first read your name with the subtitle "Shaitnist" I thought that you are worshipping the evil and that you must be somehow mentally ill. Meanwhile, I have learned that my image of what you think was wrong. Still, I wonder why you invoke that name. What's the reason behind?
Which one is considered the Greater Self?Iblīs Šaytān is the Supreme Model of Separation between “I” and “Consciousness” which is a predominant concept for us on the western Left Hand Path.
Consciousness/PsycheWhich one is considered the Greater Self?
I would say that your Consciousness is everything about your individual, unique Self.Interesting, the experience I call "consciousness" is profoundly lacking any individualistic aspects. Maybe we call different phenomena "consciousness"?
Could you elaborate on what you mean by "lights up to perception"?How do you call that which "lights up" to perception the Psyche/Soul/Greater Self?
I would call that consciousness, but that's different from the phenomena arising in it, such as the Self.
Ok thank you.My usage of these terms:
Perception is a rather mechanical process, sights get processed by the nervous system, or a memory or thought is apprehended, for example.
Consciousness lights up these perceptions, they gain significance, they are observed.
The perceptions which, when made conscious, make up my sense of who I am, my sense of Self, are in this context perceptions like all the other perceptions.
That's what I meant when I wrote that consciousness lacks individualistic aspects.
A very Buddhist way of using these terms, but it fits my observations well.
Sounds like it, though we seem to draw different conclusions.Are we saying the same thing?
Perhaps it is!Sounds like it, though we seem to draw different conclusions.
Awareness by the mind of itself - the "itself" seems to imply a kind of loop-back which may just be a manner of speaking, but which to me is incidental.
Maybe this is where our world-views differ?
In other worlds we call this egoism ... or self-delusion ... the subjective Universe speaks for itself as a psychic confinement.The idea that we all have a Greater Self/GodSelf (Higher Self/Soul/Psyche) is the dominant feature of the Western Left Hand Path. It is the foundation of the praxis, becoming aware of one's GodSelf, opening avenues of communication with one's GodSelf, and bringing more of one's GodSelf into one's mundane existence. This is referred to in The Sect of the Horned God as Sinister Illumination (apotheosis).
In my Work with the Æ0N 0f IBLĪS ŠAYTĀN we embrace the praxis just mentioned as well as a LHP form of Phowa whereupon physical death we transfer our Consciousness to our GodSelf and enter a Subjective Universe that we have been designing and creating for ourselves where we are the Deity.
