Satan is "Reason"
To hold something up against all probability
To accuse of all possibility
The adversary of all consideration
Satan is asking yourself "Am I good person?" and being truthfully and brutally shown all your own shortcomings
People mistake this function of conscience, for being something named, rooted outside of themselves
But it is you. You are it
It is the necessary reflection of perception (Persephone) ... Without which, there could be no distinction between what is right, and what is wrong
Kore (Core) needed to be taken by Hades (Radius), to return as perception (Persephone)
The balance that brings the seasons. The leaves fall, so more can sprout
The day end, so another can begin
Within Illumination we say
"Without having tasted lemon, could you still say sugar sweet?"
The point being, that without pain, there could no comparable height to love. Thus there could be no loss, and there could be no joy
Lucifer is the "sun/son of the morning", because without comparative darkness it breaks through, the light itself could not shine
So many people want to explore their own goodness, but so few are willing to meet the depths of their own darkness to do it
Lucifer and Jesus Christ are the same person. Two sides of the same coin. Which you receive, depends on how you live, treat life and the world around
you, and the manner of pain/regret, fear and impurities you allow to exist within your own form ...
Or, that you choose to repress and/or ignore
Within initiation, we are confronted by all manner of the darkest entities and experiences. The most horrific and terrifying things that can be
imagined
In my experiences, a goat-headed Baphomet, asian Baphomet sitting on a throne made of human bodies, Ishtar and her "pets" (two barking owls) that
followed me everywhere watching me in the real world
Within the experiencing and comprehension of the concept people often refer to as "evil", there exists the choice to submit, or hold yourself before
the wrath of pain
To become equal to, and exceed its measure
This is the essence of what is referred to as Illumination
It is no different to light overcoming planetary atmosphere
You either submit to be absorbed within the light
Or you exceed the resistance to burn as the light itself
These "evils" have nothing they can use against, which you do not submit to within your judgement of self
If you see yourself as inherently flawed and incapable, so shall you be
Again, it is your own pains/regrets, fears/inadequacies, impurities/blockages, being used against you
If you remove these things, they cannot hurt you
More so, you can look right into the eyes of the most terrifying entities you can imagine, with a soul burning with the righteousness of creation
itself
It is like delivering fire through your eyes, into the soul of the eyes you look into. Hard to explain, until you have experienced it personally
Things will come to look you in the eyes to scare, or judge you, and instead a fire from within you ends up burning directly through the centre of
their soul
One thing I can tell you from all my experiences with this ...
Is that none of these terrifying and horrific entities I have encountered are actually "evil" once you look deep into the centre of what they are, in
this way
There is no hate. There is no rage. There is no evil
There is only pain. Or the absence of love
Most of my experiences with entities who have come to "judge me" in such a way, have ended with a mutual feeling of sated peace
And trust me, there have been many. A virtual checklist of boxes that needed to be met, to satisfy every different type of belief system
It always ends with a feeling like they came looking to target darkness within me, but they instead left, with no contest
Like they were testing to see if there was any darkness or parts within me that need be dominated and subjegated, for my own good, to teach me a
lesson
But what they found instead was fire, equal to their cause. Which leaves us in a type of respectful stalemate
They know that they no more need to hurt me for my darkness, than I would them for theirs
There is no need to judge or hurt those, who would already judge and punish themselves just as harshly
The fire that pours through you in these experiences, feels like the fire of creation itself
My point is, that in many years and experiences seeking out entities and dimensions darker that most people will ever know exist, let alone experience
...
I have still yet to find anything even close to true "evil"
I've met the entities people call Devil and Demon (as well as God, Jesus, Mary and Angel) and all I found when I looked into their eyes, was the
deepest pain I've ever experienced
A pain which felt like falling into an unfathomably deep hole
And behind it, at the bottom, was one of the most beautiful souls and lights I've ever encountered. Broken and pained
One prepared to take on all the pain and darkness of the world, and let the world despise and hate them, so that the world can know peace, safety and
love
A soul buried under the crushing weight of all the darkness and pain it was willing to endure, so that others did not need to carry that weight
Weight that lazy people are all too willing to blame and dump on someone else, rather than take personal responsibility
Though they may appear "evil" upon the surface of all fear and pain, under the darkness, they are as far from evil as any I've ever encountered
They are by far the most beautiful soul I've ever looked into
To me, it would actually seem ...
That the truest form of "devil" or "evil" the actually exists in this world, is not within the temptation and selfish opportunities that are offered
to people ...
Nor is it even within those that submit to such things
Rather, it is within those who would see their own darkness named and blamed upon something other than themselves, in order to liberate themselves
from any form of self-responsibility and the cost they may need to pay for the choices they made in this world
The Devil as a concept, is little more than a scapegoat
