NOTE

Seek Meaning, Not Attention

A deep yearning for connection can lead individuals to create personas based on fleeting moments of insight or achievement, particularly within philosophical or spiritual contexts. This behavior, driven by a desire for validation and attention, often results in a misunderstanding of true practices, such as the difference between theurgy and goetia. Instead of striving for social positioning, it is crucial to focus on the deeper significance of ideas and experiences, ensuring that engagement with these concepts isn't merely self-serving but rooted in genuine understanding and intention.
