Woops, I missed this.

I imagine we would. God knows I've felt like sometimes, except for a few relapses here and there, I've got most of the phonemes of the Secret Name of my animal desires down pretty pat.

Like I said, the only and truly earned whitepill I've ever encountered. I suppose I came to the intuition a little later than you did, but as soon as I saw it, everybody seems to be saying it.

I gotta go with Mulla Sudra's concept of the Imaginal here to explain your suspicion of worldly practice. Not that isn't unfounded (read UG), but... anyways, Mulla Sudra says we can access the noetic realm with our imagination. Our imagination, although rooted in material faculties, nevertheless achieves some kind of congruence with the realm that transcends it... imagine it as the pisces vesica produced by a venn diagram. I think it would be helpful to consider worldly practice like this.

That said, waiting on confirmation from the World that you've Done It is also a dependency and an attachment. What we're waiting on is a reflexive signification of something that, in-itself, is kind of "void." I remember reading Lacarriere after spending years struggling with my own animalism. Anyways, he talks about how the Gnostic lightens his ontological mass by refusing heavy foods, sexuality... and I was like, jesus man is THAT what the fuck I've been doing all this time? A Gnostic praxis? You see? I didn't need to know what I was doing to do it.

As long as this doesn't justify complacency, I think you're fine.

>Why does this not apply to meat?

Well, the substance of animal are literally dried demon coom. I believe the Manichaeans were content with waiting for the light locked in the dense carbon shells of animals to get recycled into one of their bodies naturally than inflict suffering on them "for their own good." A Manichaean could never reconcile killing with an act of mercy. Them niggas don't even walk on the grass.

>The Bardo isn't a post-death state, it's the falling apart of reality as you approach the horizon of Being.

oooh, very nice. It's all about magnetism, with the bardo deities being the most potent magnets. Please post the book(s) you've been reading. In return, I'll post my favorite movie. Pic related.

>We've been talking about this stuff...

Yup. I get it. We can leave it at that. It's honestly been a pleasure.
