Question on thinking.

As every alchemist knows, thoughts are things you become. Things are thoughts you have manifested already. You are a thing. It is a thing. The no-thing is Self.

The thinking of magic is secretive and persuasive... Charmed, I'm sure. BUT! Could there be another problem than evil? Absolutely not. Being charmed, by definition, is being at peace with the stuff that works and ignorant to the stuff that won't. So I say - think of what you love.

What do wiccans/pagans really love about their happy times? For an alchemist it is sensory pleasure. Just throwing this out there... Please consider.

Thankfully not everything we think of becomes manifest, or we'd be in a world of hurt. Could you imagine? Really, then Trump would have been dead several times over by now.
I am indeed a thing surrounded by things, yet are we talking living things? Or the things we have attachment to, like a home or clothes on our back.
The thing about no-thing is more like the void in which we wouldn't be, at least not in this plane, yet if you consider the word "no" to be the remover, then you are only left with thing.
Sensory pleasure is great, but what about too much of a good thing? Crowley thought if you could satisfy all earthly desires that then you are open to spirit, frankly if I had all the sex, food, drink and drugs I could partake of, sleep would be next before I could connect with spirit, yet then I would have to start over, lol and may never know spirit.
Thoughts of bliss should manifest bliss, so why does it seem the majority of people struggling with health, finances, housing etc ... are still doing so?
I am that I am

Thought can be deceptive and go in circles of habitual patterning, recreating the same self myths. Awakening breaks the cycle.
