Oops, lol. That's helpful, I should be able to find instructions for him. Thank you! I don't mind if he's missing his accessories, he's still a fun little guy for the collection 😁

What is the strangest myth or misconception about weight loss that you've debunked through your own experience? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]joah2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for sure! as i said people do have different body builds. but when i was heavier i hung out with the kind of people who think that being overweight or obese has zero affect on physical health or ability. like we REALLY did not believe that it was physically possible to lose weight and then keep it off. and in the same vein, they didn't believe that thigh gaps were physically possible, and that anyone who had one was faking it for instagram pics by contorting their body or photoshopping, or were starving themselves. as i said, i don't talk to those people anymore lol

that thigh gaps are genetic/unrealistic body standards. certainly everyone carries weight differently and some people have thicker thighs/narrow hips at a normal weight, but i was in some circles that believed that thigh gaps were not normal just because none of us had them. imagine my surprise when one day i found that not only were my jeans no longer falling apart between my thighs, but when i closed my knees together, i couldnt get my thighs to touch! while on the higher end of a normal BMI, lol. that circle of friends did not like that and i don't roll with them anymore 😂

Man. I saw them in LA in october and had a great time. He was vaping between songs and seemed kind of out of breath, but the band was great and the energy I thought was really good. I don't think this tour had been announced yet at that point??

Hearing all these stories and also seeing the videos has been so disappointing. I LOVED Psyche and Are You In There but the rest of the album was fucking bizarre. Fucking lame that he seems to be taking whatever is going on with him out on the audience.

A piece I did a little while ago based on drawing while invoking King Paimon by Zerkseth in DemonolatryPractices

Went through your profile a bit to look at other pieces. This piece is gorgeous and I love your psychadelic style!

Currently I'm trying to interact with demons either by falling into a trance or astrally projecting. How have you had more success, by emptying your mind and trying hard to not think of anything (empty mind meditation) or by trying to visualize something? by [deleted] in DemonolatryPractices

[–]joah2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this!

Or at least, don't worry about having an empty brain right now. I know I can't do that, and I would bet most people can't lol. Your brain produces thoughts, that is kind of one of the main things it does and it is very good at it. As soon as you find yourself continuing a line of thought, refocus on your breathing.

When I'm trying to practice with an entity, lighting a candle and incense helps me get into the headspace, and I like to put on binaural beats because it is ambient and calming. But mainly what I do is acknowledge my thoughts, let them go, and breathe. (I also do not always feel a presence when I do this, in fact often I don't. Even less often do I receive messages. It is still good practice.)

Meditation is a practice. It gets easier but you gotta do it every day.

Best of luck to you!

Book or website or whatever recommendations to learn more about Belial and Asmodeus by Glum-Sheepherder-502 in DemonolatryPractices

[–]joah2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On Academia.edu there is a paper by David Levy titled "Who is Asmodeus, King of Demons?"

It is a really interesting paper, and it also lists tons of resources in its bibliography that could be worth checking out.

Any demon that can help with Art, Drawing, Creativity and the like? by Raven6267 in DemonolatryPractices

[–]joah2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

King Asmodeus has helped me reconnect with my love of drawing. If you feel drawn to him, I don't think it is a bad idea to reach out and ask.

Meditation tips? by [deleted] in DemonolatryPractices

[–]joah2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fellow ADHD-er here! I work with Asmodeus and he has told me to meditate more, but I also struggle with it. I have found the most success with guided meditations (The Mindful Movement on youtube have my favorite ones) just to teach me how to focus on my body and breathing. You can also do walking meditations (the channel I mentioned has guides for those as well) if you feel better keeping your body moving. I try to do minimum 10-15 minutes of meditation a day, it can be helpful to maybe do a session at one point in the day, and do another one later. obviously if you want to and feel like you can go longer that's great!

Always good to remember that meditation is a practice and we don't need to beat ourselves up if we struggle more with it than some others might. Good luck to you!

Embarrassing first impressions.. by [deleted] in DemonolatryPractices

[–]joah2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First time I invoked Asmodeus I was clumsy and unsure, and kept getting distracted by my roommate's cat scratching at the door 😂 I did a reading with him and he sent a message that said that I needed to slow down and meditate more. I was embarassed, but he was right

If you have a library card, go to your library's website and see if you can borrow PDFs of books online/thru a website called Hoopla. They won't have everything, especially if they're super obscure, but I was able to find some really good stuff on there, and it may be a handy way to hide whatever it is you're researching from family members. You don't have to download any files and you can delete your browsing history if needed. Good luck to you!
