「How to know you are spiritually protected ☥

My own insights into spiritual protection- Amaryllis

1. This is going to sound weird but… feeling invisible when you go outside in large crowds. Sometimes it will literally feel like you’re gliding..and some people can���t see you at all. Some people seem to look straight ahead completely unaware of your presence..and the people who look, turn their heads to look again to make sure they’ve seen you correctly. Because your auric field stands out so much…

2. You are safe in situations most people wouldn’t be. This is not by any means an invitation to try this out because if you F* around you will find out! - Spirit. But maybe you end up being in certain circumstances where you have to walk alone at night on certain streets that may have a certain negative reputation and you always end up being safe. Like having to take a certain particular way home everytime you come home from school or work and other people have horror stories about that road/street yet you don’t and you’ve always been fine.

3. Learn to see the hidden blessing behind rejection. You get rejected by many people, jobs, “opportunities”…this one sounds strange again but it goes back to what I said in point number 1 with somehow being invisible to certain people with negative energies that could possibly harm you. Sometimes when it comes to romantic relationships especially…we have short term contracts with people..but staying within that connection any longer would be harmful so spirit encourages us to sever that tie or to let go because it served its spiritual purpose. Maybe that person suddenly decides they want to break up or don’t like you anymore. Rejection is Gods protection. I’ll say that again. Rejection is Gods protection. Whatever is meant for you, will find you and be with you.

4. You have some sort of extra sensory gift. With power comes responsibility. If god gave you some sort of intuitive power; one half of the reason as to why you have it is to protect you and warn you about certain dangers.. to help a seasoned soul like yours navigate this life.

5. You are able to sense when something isn’t right with people.. this goes back point number 4. But sometimes you will get chills or feel like something isn’t right with certain people and you don’t know why. Even when others seem to gravitate towards that thing/person. You can see behind the veil very well.

6. An obvious one but getting warnings in dreams, having a strong connection with the dream realm and understanding the spiritual significance behind it.

7. Your friends/family let you know they’ve had dreams about you and you often know what they mean/what they’re referring to, and know to take it as a sign.

8. Another strange one.. not being able to sleep…not knowing why you can’t sleep sometimes for several days in a row and then you’re fine and able to sleep normally again. Sometimes the astral realm is murky. Spiritual warfare is real. And sometimes not entering different realms and dimensions full of energy harvesting, demons, malicious entities, means not being able to sleep that night. That’s your higher self and guides protecting you.

9. Getting chills/realisations reading this post ;)

That’s all folks

"In 1955 in Hungary there lived only one single person who could have not only conversed but actually exchanged views with Heraclitus, Buddha, Lao Tse and Shakespeare, and that in each one's mother tongue. If these four prophets of the human spirit had gotten off the plane in Tiszapalkonya, and if they had addressed the first laborer they came across, and if this had happened to be B��la Hamvas himself, after talking for three nights straight - during the day Hamvas had to carry mortar, but perhaps his guests would have given him a hand - well then, what might they have thought: if in this country the unskilled laborers are like this man, what then might the scholars be like? But had they looked around the country, they would have understood everything."

Géza Szőcs about Béla Hamvas¹

"Kierkegaard's study "The Critique of Time" came into my hands. No society, no state, no poetry, no thought, no religion, what is there is a corrupt and lying confusion. That's right, I thought. But it had to start sometime. I started looking for the dark spot. The proton pseudos, or the first lie. I went backwards from the middle of the last century to the French Revolution, to the Enlightenment, to rationalism, through the Middle Ages to the Greeks, the Hebrews, the Egyptians, and the primitives. I found the crisis everywhere, but every crisis pointed deeper. The dark spot is still ahead, still ahead. I made the typical European mistake, looking for the dark point outside myself, even though it was inside me."²

Béla Hamvas (23 March 1897 – 7 November 1968) was a Hungarian writer, philosopher, and social critic. He was the first thinker to introduce the Traditionalist School of René Guénon to Hungary. One of the greatest metaphysical thinkers of the 20th century, Béla Hamvas, due to his wide range of interests, studied literature, cultural history, history of science, psychology, philosophy and Eastern Asian languages. He was a non-conformist, whose aesthetic views were attacked by the Marxist ideologist György Lukács, resulting in the banning of his works from publication after 1947. Most of his writings were published posthumously, beginning from the early 1980s.

Short biography

1897 - Béla Hamvas was born on 23 March 1897 in Eperjes, Sáros County, Kingdom of Hungary (present-day Prešov, Slovakia). His father, József Hamvas was a Lutheran pastor, teacher of German and Hungarian, journalist and writer.

1898 - The family moved to Pozsony (Bratislava) in 1898, where Hamvas completed his basic studies in 1915.

1915–1917 - After graduation, like his classmates, he entered voluntary military service and was sent to the front in Ukraine. He was sent back to Budapest for hospital treatment due to severe traumatic shock, but just after recovery, he was drafted to the front line in western Italy. He never reached the battlefield, as his train was hit by a shell, and the wounded Hamvas was discharged.

1919 - In 1919 his father refused an oath of allegiance to the new nation of Czechoslovakia, whereupon his family was expelled from Bratislava. They moved to Budapest, where Hamvas attended Péter Pázmány Catholic University.

1919–1923 studied German and Hungarian Philology at the University of Budapest

1923–1926 - After graduation he became a journalist at the newspapers Budapesti Hírlap and Szózat. Hamvas considered this job shallow and menial, but he had to support his family (although his father received a pension from 1924). Three years later he quit, as he had found a better job in the main library of Budapest. He was appointed as a senior librarian in 1927.

1927–1948 librarian in the Central Library of Budapest. By this time he was writing articles, reviews and essays for 25 different journals.

1935–1936 together with Károly Kerényi, founded Sziget, a journalist and intellectual circle

1937 married the writer Katalin Kemény. (He married Ilona Angyal in 1929, but divorced in 1936 to marry Katalin Kemény in 1937. She was his partner in founding the Sziget circle, a literary group which later gained prominent members like Antal Szerb, Károly Kerényi, László Németh, and the composer Antal Molnár.)

1940–1944 drafted into military service; posted to the Russian front in 1942; managed to escape. Nearly 20 years of library work was ended by World War II. Hamvas was drafted for military service three times. He continued his literary work while on the front lines - translating Lao Tse and Heraclitus among others. His first essay collection was published in 1943.

1940s - A creative friendship develops between him and one of the greatest poets and thinkers of our time, Sándor Weöres. They become pen pals, master and disciple, and between them they have a significant influence on several of their works.

1945 - The couple survived the siege of Budapest. Their apartment was hit by bombing, destroying his library and manuscripts. Despite the Soviet siege and repeated harassment by the authorities, 1945 to 1947 were his most fruitful years.

1945–1948 editor of the Leaflets of the University Press

1948 - In 1948 he was placed on the B-list⁴ (banned from publishing) by the Soviet installed socialist government, and was forced into retirement from his library job. Although he had published more than 250 works before his ban, most of Hamvas's body of work was written anonymously later on. He got a licence to farm in the garden of his brother-in-law in Szentendre, and tended plants there between 1948 and 1951, during which time he also completed Karnevál, one of his major essays.

1948–1951 officially qualified as a labourer

1951–1964 - Between 1951 and 1964 he was employed as an unskilled worker in power plants in Tiszapalkonya, Inota and Bokod, under harsh conditions. Whenever he had spare time he translated from Sanskrit, Hebrew and Greek, and wrote about the Cabala, Zen, and Sufism. Between 1959 and 1966 he completed Patmosz, his last major work.

1964 retired from work at the age of 67

1968 - Aged 67, he finally received a pension. Béla Hamvas died of a hemorrhagic stroke on 7th of November in 1968. He is buried in Szentendre.

1990 - In 1990⁵ he posthumously received the Kossuth Prize.

He was a great thinker and essayist who integrated Eastern and Western traditions as well as posing many serious questions about the modern age, together with the possibility of resolving them. According to one of his central thoughts: "The present eon, since 600 B.C. stands in the sign of personal salvation. Only since this time is there a notion of humanity, because there is only one single collective category of personality and this is humanity."

Béla Hamvas found his form of expression in the essay, a genre at once literary and philosophical. His early essays were published in Magyar Hüperion (1936, Hungarian Hyperion), marking the end of his first period of thinking, to be followed by Szellem és egzisztencia (1941, Spirit and Existence), an essay discussing the philosophy of Karl Jaspers, one of the main inspirations for Hamvas’s thinking. He published a selection of essays on literature, psychology, philosophy and cultural history in A láthatatlan történet (1943, The Invisible Story). Analyzing the spiritual crisis of the age, Hamvas read himself into the metaphysical tradition, the collective spiritual knowledge of humanity conveyed by sacred books. His collection Scientia Sacra (the first six volumes, 1942–43) served to direct the attention of the age towards the philosophy of the Far East (The Upanishads, Tao Te King, The Tibetan Book of the Dead and others) and European mysticism. From 1945 Hamvas belonged to the spiritual renaissance for three years, during which he edited the series Leaflets of the University Press, held lectures and published the metaphysical Anthologia humana: Ötezer év bölcsessége (1946, Anthologia Humana – The Wisdom of Five Millennia), the fourth edition of which was banned and pulped by the communist regime. His essays written together with his wife on the history of art Forradalom a művészetben: Absztrakció és szürrealizmus Magyarországon (1947, Revolution in Art: Abstraction and Surrealism in Hungary) survey Hungarian art from Károly Ferenczy, Tivadar Csontváry Kosztka and Lajos Gulácsy up to the activity of the “European School.” Hamvas saw in surrealism and abstract art the heritage of magic, the “tremendous presence of a higher existence”, and opposed “realistic” art. This concept of modern art was attacked by the Marxist ideologist, György Lukács, and Hamvas was dismissed from the library and silenced for the rest of his life. His writings were published in samizdat.

‘‘ᴛʜᴇ ɢᴏʟᴅᴇɴ ᴀɢᴇ ɪꜱ ɴᴏᴛ ᴀ ʜɪꜱᴛᴏʀɪᴄᴀʟ ᴇʀᴀ, ʙᴜᴛ ᴀ ꜱᴛᴀᴛᴇ, ᴀɴᴅ ɪꜱ ᴛʜᴇʀᴇꜰᴏʀᴇ ᴘʀᴇꜱᴇɴᴛ ɪɴ ᴀʟʟ ᴛɪᴍᴇꜱ; ɪᴛ ᴊᴜꜱᴛ ᴅᴇᴘᴇɴᴅꜱ ᴏɴ ᴡʜᴇᴛʜᴇʀ ᴛʜᴇʀᴇ ɪꜱ ꜱᴏᴍᴇᴏɴᴇ ᴛᴏ ᴍᴀᴋᴇ ɪᴛ ʜᴀᴘᴘᴇɴ.‘‘⁶

His essays are grounded in tradition, their sense of humour is granted by knowledge, and humour, in turn, grants their freedom. Unicornis, Titkos Jegyzőkönyv, Silentium (1948–51, Unicorn, Secret Protocol, Silentium) were published as late as 1987, but were written alongside Hamvas’s great novel, Karnevál (1948–51, Carnival, published in 1985). This Magnum Opus, also called a “catalogue of fate”, a “human comedy”, spans continents and ages, Heaven and Hell. Hamvas’s three shorter novels, Szilveszter (1957, New Year’s Eve), Bizonyos tekintetben (1961, From a Certain Aspect), Ugyanis (1966–67, Therefore) were published together in 1991, followed by his collection of essays, Patmosz (1959–1966; Patmos) in 1992, whose title alludes to John the Apostle’s exile to the island of Patmos, and the second part of Scientia Sacra: az őskori emberiség szellemi hagyománya II. rész: A kereszténység (1960–64, Scientia Sacra – Spiritual Heritage of Mankind, part II. Christianity) published in 1988.

⁴ The B-list covered the public employees and state officials in post-war Hungary who had become politically undesirable from some point of view. About 100,000 people were included in 1945-6 as the Ž Hungarian Workers-Party (MDP) prepared to monopolize power. The mass dismissals that occurred were intended primarily as a political cleansing process and only secondarily as a way of reducing public spending. The screening process was conducted by a three-man committee, which sorted public employees and state officials into categories A (reliable), B (to be dismissed, but re-employable within a year) and C (to be dismissed as politically unreliable and not re-employed).

⁵ In the late 1980s, Soviet control began to slacken, paving the way for the change of political regime in 1989, with 23 October marking the birth of the new Republic of Hungary. The first democratic national and municipal elections took place in 1990.

Being a Metaphysician in Today's World

Metaphysicians today deal with the root cause of ultimate reality, knowing that common sense and only what is seen, often is not always the whole story. Metaphysics delves deeper into the impetus seedling that can grow into mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual dysfunction if left unbalanced. As Dr. Edward Bach, Madame Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, energy workers and I have discovered, not all…

I love metaphysician and his works but I find it HILARIOUS that any time I come on here???? Alagadda. Like everywhere. For you tab? Alagadda. Following? Alagadda. His reach is far.

most people need to realize that freud, all the post-modernists, and like baudrillard too is not for real life. It's for having fun while watching movies. no one actually believes that people are in love with their mothers or whatever but will there ever be a less crazy weirdo explanation for why that movie slasher guy did that? I'll wait.

Making Money: How to?¿💸

After many years of listening to spiritual teachers speak on the art of acquiring money, I want to share some important lessons.

There’s a few themes which seem to be relevant amongst these teachers. Here’s what I have come across.

2024 is a money year , number 8 year. So in honour of that I create this post.

1. Money is an exchange.

Money is an exchange of value. In order to get money, aka in order to receive . You must have something to give first. The more value you are able to offer, the more you will have to give and therefore will be able to receive more.

2. DESIRE- doing what you love is a key and an important factor

If you don’t truly want to work towards something, you will eventually quit. I’m not telling you to let of your part time job, in fact keep it for a sense of security which is vital as you’re cultivating your individuality and raising your vibration. As long as you have enough time to give to the new reality you want to create, all is well.

Connecting to your heart and finding out what you want to do, even if you don’t have the whole picture of you what you want to do.

You may have an idea as to what the next step is. So dedicate yourself and commit to it to the best of your ability. If it TRULY generates joy and you BELIEVE in it, you will keep going no matter what.

But having a sense of direction is crucial, because even if you realise you don’t like something, it helps you figure out what you do want. And you may have to do certain things for a temporary while in order to build you up to realise what you are truly meant for. LIFE IS A JOURNEY. don’t rush. Just enjoy the process.

3. Something bigger than you.

Connecting to your true purpose means seeing beyond what your dream can do for you, but what it can do for others. Many of you will be resistant to this because you need to heal your heart chakra. Giving and receiving are both acts of the heart.

4. In this reality, you will either serve the dark or the light forces

Seriously, it’s time to choose. Do you want the easy way, and bargain with the devil like these celebrities do, even if it means losing connection to yourself for material gain.

Or are you going to collaborate with God, and take the road of personal growth and transformation while serving others by living in your highest truth. The path of light means first finding your truth, then seeing how it can benefit others. It’s accepting that life is a co creative process, it’s about surrendering and having a healthy relationship to yourself so you can then be in healthy relationship and viewpoint to others.

You can be a “bad” person and still make money. Companies make money off fizzy drinks and crisps because people value it, but they continue to sell it because they know it sells. It’s a vicious cycle.

But yeah, who will you choose to serve, your lower or higher self?

But honestly, a big part of making money is healing your attachment issues because they take so much energy out of you.

5. Believe it to see it

Change your beliefs in regard to money. If you think money is bad, it won’t come to you, because you’re unable to receive it, and the universe wants what’s best for you and free will exists for a reason, so we can decide what to accept and reject.

We have been manipulated by people to believe that money is bad, because that means more of it flows to them, because they are choosing to receive it. But yeah, money has had a negative frequency attached to it up until the recent years because the bankers and politicians and people who are in charge of money( the Elite families,)work with the dark forces.

In this new age however, more people are choosing to revolutionise how things are done, and are choosing to be conscious agents of the Light. Meaning this has an impact on how money is made too. Meaning money can be made through unconditional love. Rather than fear, and doing something you don’t want to do to make a living.

Which side of history will you be on.

6. External influences.

My post on “ how to make it while living in a toxic environment” covers my opinion on this point. But even so, most people don’t make a lot of money, most people don’t believe in themselves and their dreams. So they won’t believe in you. Be realistic as to how people perceive you and release the expectations you have of them to perceive you a certain way. It will make people uncomfortable to see a new version of you, it will make you uncomfortable too. But guess what, stepping outside of the “follower” box into the “creator” box is a big step.

There will always be positive and negative consequences no matter what you do, so do what you truly want to do that is in your highest good, follow true joy and long term fulfilment.

7. 3 feet from gold

One of my favourite teachers, Bob Proctor, has a saying that people usually give up just before they accumulate something. This is why it’s so important to do something you love, because you’re doing it for the love and joy of it, with no expectation. People who do something just for the results tend to give up , they don’t savour the journey which is the longest part of the process. They give up when the results are around the corner, 3 feet away from gold. Connecting to your heart again , is super important. Healing and authentic desire will make it so that it doesn’t matter what the outside world is saying, you no longer give up because now it’s about your journey, not what you externally get but what you feel.

And ultimately we need money to survive, but money is a means and a gateway for us to gain external experiences. Feel the joy of being alive without attachment to it. You can be happy just because. Train yourself to be that way. Feeling happy just because you’re alive is the biggest respect you can give to the universe and also yourself. It’s a great day to be alive, why? Because I just am.

“I am that, I am”

Don’t let circumstances dictate how you feel, but if something is negative and you can get away from it, by all means do so. Because if the environment becomes stronger than your willpower, that’s when you want to give up.

That’s why I’m so keen on keeping things to yourself, because you don’t attract dualistic energies onto your goals.

8. ACT AS IF

Acting as if you have everything you need is what will attract it. Becoming the person who has those things is an important part of the process of transformation. What would someone who has their needs met, act, think, speak, sound, behave like?

That means your goals, your routine, should implement some of that, bit by bit , eventually it grows, and before you know it, you’re wholly embodying the experience which you intended to experience.

Start off with visualisation, familiarising yourself with the frequency. And as I said before, if 90% of the time you’re in survival mode, that 10%, that 10 minutes you spend in complete immersion and sacredness, it will make a huge difference. Because quality over quantity.

That’s all for now folks.

I will link two of my videos which may help you further in your metaphysical understanding of this. I understand it is complex, but I believe you’re all capable to step outside of your comfort zone and into your personal power.

Hello feiend, what's sarkicism?

I know i can google it but i want to hear the answer from the horror expert

Okay so Sarkicism is an SCP thing that connects to like SCP-610. The Hub is Here. So you can read and fact check me (but i'm right, goddammit!).

The gist is that you had the Daeva who were doing magical cannibalism and blood sacrifices of their slaves in Siberia and Ion (who was born to a Daevite mother and enslaved father) was like "Well that's less than good." And so Ion took off to go do some quests from the Archons (who are Yaldabaoth's dudes who do stuff) and overcame them and learned how to do Fleshcrafting. It's p much like "all organic life stems from one source so you can fuck with genetics to grow new limbs or whatever you need." And Ion went "Sick." and then had his four Klavigar (who're basically the Meat Saints) help him overthrow the Daevite Empire who, iirc, had a small enclave go "Fuck this" and go into a pocket dimension.

So the Sarkic Empire ate up all of Siberia and went to the Mediterrenean and were like "Oh hey new neighbors we just overthrew the Daeva lol." And the Church of the Broken God (who're all into metal over flesh) saw the Sarkite Empire and went "Oh fuck that's the for-real devil." And went to war and that started the Bronze Age Collapse. Whoops.

Then Sarkicism Broke. You had the neo-Sarkics who became Court Wizards for rich houses in Europe and embrace new technology and also are Selfish Pricks (the needs of the one outweigh the needs of the many). And your proto-Sarkics who were predominately Indigenous communities who shun new technology and use fleshcrafting for the benefit of everyone (we love that!!!).

So now every Sarkic group has their own practices and beliefs but In General they all do fleshcrafting, which leads to a lot of body horror.

“Even we knowers of today, we godless anti-metaphysicians, still take our fire from the blaze set alight by a faith thousands of years old, that faith of the Christians, which was also Plato’s faith, that God is truth, that truth is divine.”

Nietzsche

[aboutbirds]

It comes about that the drifting of these curtains Is full of long motions; as the ponderous Deflations of distance; or as clouds Inseparable from their afternoons; Or the changing of light, the dropping Of the silence, wide sleep and solitude Of night, in which all motion Is beyond us, as the firmament, Up-rising and down-falling, bares The last largeness, bold to see.

Wallace Stevens, "The Curtains in the House of the Metaphysician," from Collected Poetry and Prose
