As you all know we are living in a "galactic night".
Age of Aquarius was supposed to kick in...
We all waiting for cabal to let us revive the Illuminati and then launch planetary ascension
Im not sure what we supposed to pray for ... something along these lines: God let these days be shortened, let those in high power places to see the real truth and go ahead with cosmic evolution, lunch new protocols and bring Kingdom to Earth

The Devil apparently relishes his existence, enjoys power, abhors love in any sense. I'm speaking metaphorically of course, but you know, like the Rothchilds who are worth trillions and own the major banks and even whole governments, allegedly. Sharing the wealth is not an option because wealth = power and power is never shared, it is seized by force.

My prayer for the shroomery is that we shall all learn to be blessings in our each others lives and allow that to be more important than our petty gripes with si kfetj
Speaking of the devil Markos, if you feel his evil and wicked hand on your shoulder (speaking metaphorically of course) what should you do? Should you resist it and try to think of what is good or is it better to just sit back, relax, tell the devil to go ahead and do his worst and then simply obseve what happens?
Like for example, every now and then especially if I have eaten some psilocybin containing mushroom i will become aware of the presence of evil in me and in the world. If I think about Jesus, the evil usually will go away but i am wondering whether it is better to really look into and face this evil (like how it is better to face pain than try to run away from it).

Working backwards, I'd say that the avoidance of pain is what Epicurus taught, and he spawned a lot of philosophical considerations. Too much embracing of pain, pain was masochistically and therefore pathologically raised to some divine status in Christianity. Some was taken from Pseudepigryphal material (e.g., Tobit). This engendered the idea that martyrdom was the way to go, by confronting evil directly in completely polarized fashion. The result was that parents and their children marched while singing hymns to the Coliseum, to be covered in pitch and made into human torches for night festivities, or smeared with blood to entice big hungry felines, to devour them alive - Christian-on-a-stick. These unspeakable atrocities were the result of polarizing the relatively evil Romans against the good Christians, but that style of parenting - sacrificing one's children to unbelievable torment is usually overlooked as being an evil that the Christian parents refused to see in themselves. And of course, those who only see the courage and bravery of these parents also fail to see the evil in their child-sacrifices which did nothing to establish the faith anyway. The one-sided appreciation of foolhardiness as courage overlooks what today would be viewed as a cult of death and child sacrifice.
The Gnostics took another tack, one that involved what Erich Neumann called "a new ethic" (in Depth Psychology and a New Ethic). Instead of maintaining the polarization of evil in oneself and in others, Neumann put forth the more complex issue of integrating evil into our essentially good nature. So, in the case of the Gnostics, not all Gnostics. The Cathars surrendered to Catholic authorities and refusing to convert, marched as martyrs into bonfires. But other Gnostics simply worshipped as a silent 5th column next to their Catholic neighbors, repeating the creeds but understanding them inwardly in typically Gnostic fashion. Some might say that this was cowardly, but only those people who never actually have to worry about being burned at the stake. I for one do not announce my sacramental use of mushrooms to the authorities. We're no different than early Christians practicing their faith in the sacrosanct catacombs beneath Rome. We, like the Gnostics, have integrated a degree of necessary Shadow material as deception. Have we become evil in such practices? I don't think so. I for one have more often than not kept greed and lust and the rest of the Cardinal Sins out of my personality. The sacrifice of NOT integrating more of this stuff makes me too honest to have ever been a good businessman, for example, and unable to have lied to get girls while growing up, as well as many other worldly perks. Regardless, I am primarily a benevolent individual while having learned to integrate necessary amounts of so-called evil.
