domwatts23 said:Your reaction to the video is also interesting and reveals a lot. I gave the link because it is entertaining and also informative. It discusses what sigil magic is and Grant discusses his incredible journey whilst writing comics, which many people would find intriguing. Yes, Grant is a practicing chaos magician - so what? Why does this elicit from you an 'eye roll' and snap judgement that, therefore, nothing he says might interest you?
Sorry but you seem to have quite an emotional reaction because I don't find the video interesting, although now I won't consider Grant Morrison as a very enlighted person, getting abducted (although he recanted it) & practicing magic are big red flags to me.
At DisinfoCon in 1999, Morrison said that much of the content in The Invisibles was information given to him by aliens that abducted him in Kathmandu, who told him to spread this information to the world via a comic book. He later clarified that the experience he labelled as the "Alien Abduction Experience in Kathmandu" had nothing to do with aliens or abduction, but that there was an experience that he had in Kathmandu that The Invisibles is an attempt to explain.[10] The title was not a huge commercial hit to start with. (Morrison actually asked his readers to participate in a "wankathon" while concentrating on a magical symbol, or sigil, in an effort to boost sales)
Seriously, a "wankhaton" ? sex magic anyone ?
Magic is magic and is not what this forum is about, it's about working on yourself, not finding shortcuts to create your own reality and fullfilling your own desires. Maybe the PTB thinks they do but it's full on STS and utimately leads to being swallowed up whole.
Chaos magic is linked to all those practioners of the black arts, maybe you could check for A. Crowley on the forum ? Just sayin'...
