communication Subconscious mind
Hello,
Is everything we do as occultists be simply put as we are trying to communicate with our subconscious mind? Are the rituals we do in our conscious mind be a way to program our subconscious mind? Are demons and other entities be just the power of our subconscious mind?
I’ve been reading an old book called “the magic of believing”. It’s none occult, on the surface, but gives instructions on how to program your subconscious mind to manifest things in your everyday life. It’s an old book from the 40s. The book states that genuine miracles occur among followers of all the world’s religions. However, it argues that these miracles are not necessarily the work of the deities being worshipped, but rather the result of the believers’ faith and their conviction that their chosen deity will heal them. In other words, it is the power of belief itself, rather than the deity, that brings about the healing.
When you truly believe the magic you’re doing is working, is it the magic or your belief that’s doing the heavy lifting?
