Thelemite greeting.
And yes, I'm a lifelong student of esoteric studies. Although, public discussion and debate about it is not really allowed on the forum.

Good to know. I got it.

Meaning, they second guess everything. Not take every answer they receive at face value.

Gotcha. What would you recommend to begin with?

So, offended could be one way to view it because I might be a little. Confused is most of it though. So, yes you did answer 2 of my questions with very short answers. Then you listed some things and when I asked for suggestions I got crickets. Cool cool but, you made a comment to someone else that you understood where I was coming from in regards to questions not being answered. So, see I was totally cool with you not wanting to suggest any French authors because this is not Goodreads but then I saw that comment and then today you, moments ago actually, answerd, not necessarily in depth, but definitely less vague of an answer you gave me as to why you liked those authors. Obviously you don't have to explain your reasons to me but I genuinely was interested in your answers.

Important lesson in life - stay under the radar. Never draw attention to yourself, never succumb to arrogrance, greed or delusions of grandeur. Follow these rules and you'll be amazed by the honeysuckle you'll be able to get away with.

"And now he knows there is no death, because wakefulness can never be destroyed.
When death comes, he watches it too. He will die watching, but watching will not die.

His body will disappear, dust into dust, but watchfulness will remain; it will become a part of the cosmic whole. It will become cosmic consciousness."

~ OSHO

It's not always about giving people what they want.
Some prefer the bitter truth
Rather than sugar-coated bullshit.​
