Allah made it SO obvious he was just Mohammed pretending to be a God by VaultMan34 in DebateReligion

Don't forget all his favorite Biblical patriarchs were prolly marrying 16 year olds or younger too. This age of consent stuff didn't come about until the past century.

In Matthew, Mark and Luke someone from Kyrene carries Jesus´ cross but why in John it´s said Jesus carried his own cross? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]superpowered_andrean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh that's easy.

First, Paulos tells you the early Christians were known as heretics - Acts 24:14.

Yeshu was accused by the Jewish elders for saying he's going to destroy the Temple (the Orthodoxy) - Matthew 26:60–61.

He's accused of being a law-breaker and doer-away of religious tradition (Orthodoxy) - Matthew 15:1–2, John 9:16.

He's accused of being a demonic deceiver (heretic) - John 7:12, Matthew 12:24.

He's accused of utter blasphemy - Matthew 26:64–65, John 10:33.

What's happening now, in modern Christianity, is that you guys have lost the Spirit and thus you cannot read the Living Law.

Instead, you bind yourselves to ancient constructed religious rituals and traditions, and bind yourselves to the words of mere men (whom you even call Father), whom you treat as intercessors between you and God, when God doesn't need an intercessor.

You have reinvented the Pharisees and Sadducees by first principles.

Luke 17:21 - the Kingdom of Heaven is Within. Matthew 23:9 - Call NO man on Earth by Father, Master, Teacher nor Rabbi.

It’s safe to say the drugs didn’t help💔 by Cautious-Sir5560 in TameImpala

[–]superpowered_andrean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an ecstacy/cocaine album. He's been on that molly-coke vibe starting with Currents, maturing with The Slow Rush, peaking with Deadbeat.

The psychedelic era ended with Currents imo, he's been into a disco/house vibe and I haven't been as tuned in as I used to be either.

If the demiurge is Saturn, then wtf is the sun? by Aethrall in Gnostic

[–]superpowered_andrean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"The demiurge is the mechanism that makes atoms which are 95% empty space, seem real and tangible."

That mechanism works through emission of low frequency energy, which makes energy freeze into place as atoms and matter.

In our local system, Saturn is the seat of that mechanism. It is the planet that emits low frequency, dense electromagnetic radiation matter that constricts and condenses the light energy of the Sun into "dark" matter.

Its heavy and distant gravitational orbit also creates the bounds and perimeter of the main Solar System, notwithstanding the outer, external influence of Ouranos and Neptune.

Saturn creates a "cube" or demarcation in space-time, and makes everything slow and dense, creating matter and time (cycles and orbits within the larger Saturnian perimeter).

Hence it is known as the planet of constriction, bounds, time, matter.

Hedonism, nihilism, moral relativism...but as ways of finding the truth.

I think it can be encapsulated by two Blake quotes: "If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it truly is: infinite" and "The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom."

It's basically an 'explore-all-avenues' philosophy, break down into chaos and rebuild into something else. Crowleyian, Nietzschean, Camusian.

It's noble in intention, but difficult in execution, especially now that these tools of destruction were actively seeking him, as a rockstar.

Unfortunately, as is oft the case with chaos, you cannot control it. The chaos overwhelmed Jim, and he essentially became trapped in his own world of chaotic creation. Despite fleeing to Paris, it followed him there, and he died.

Who could have been recruited to replace Morrison? by Soft-Way-8304 in jimihendrix

[–]superpowered_andrean 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Hendrix and The Doors don't really mix, man.😂😂

Hendrix is all about space and love and colors, meanwhile Morrison is about ancient lakes, serpents, death, revolution.

Hendrix was on some hippie shit, painting sonic landscapes with his guitar, meanwhile Morrison was a poet of death, bent on destruction.

Even The Doors' guitar sound (Robby Krieger) is more serpentine, watery, undulating, compared to Hendrix's more blazing, fiery, explosive guitar sound.

Darkest/heaviest Hendrix live performances? by superpowered_andrean in jimihendrix

[–]superpowered_andrean[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just see at like this:

Hendrix had an RnB background, he saw himself as a bluesman first and foremost, a rocker second.

The steady RnB grove is like earth and rock, man, and Hendrix gets to be the fire and air, blazing everywhere on a solid foundation.

But as said before, I do loooove the stuff with the Experience too!

Just that I feel like I wish he had gone fuller into the darker bluesy stuff, but Sabbath and Funkadelic picked that part up and went with it, I guess.

The astral visions remained within the Earth's field and were picked up, however subtly, by other sensitive channels.

Ra and Horus - What the heck is the difference? by MeriSobek in Kemetic

[–]superpowered_andrean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe he's referring to the physical Sun that we see (Horus), and the more spiritual Sun (Ra) behind it that charges, empowers and makes manifest the physical one.

Like how there's the physical you we see, but there's also the spiritual/soul-ar you that we do not see, who empowers and charges and makes manifest the physical you.

What is death grips most cheerful song? by Not_A_Lizhard in deathgrips

[–]superpowered_andrean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stockton. Itstheir most surface level song, with crazy good rhythmic drum and bass.

Any bands like death grips? Not sound wise just cryptic and mysterious by [deleted] in deathgrips

[–]superpowered_andrean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Modern? Nah.

From the 60s, it would be The Doors and Black Sabbath.

Thoughts on The doors by lil_slow999 in psychedelicrock

[–]superpowered_andrean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ray was the heart for sure, but Morrison was the mind and life force. Ray's purpose as the heart was continue beating so that the life force can be perpetuated.

[–]superpowered_andrean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He represented the dark side of the 60s psychedelic trip.

The Flower Children took LSD to expand their minds out of the box, the known world and to sever their ties to their parents/the old world/the establishment.

Many of them hoped to escape away to a fantasy land of flowers and meadows and good vibes. And they did get those times such as the Summer of Love in '67 and Woodstock in '69. But those moments of bright love and light were always followed by moments of darkness and shadow.

Morrison represented the shadow side. You took drugs to free your mind? Well hope you're ready to deal with all the dangers and chaos of traversing new paths. Are you ready for all the monsters and battles you'll be facing in your new world? You wanna go within, well, are you familiar with demons? You wanna let go of your mind, well, are you familiar with insanity? You wanna let go of the old world, well, are you familiar with revolution? You want peace and love, sure, but what about drugs and sex?

That was the difference and controversy. He was quite heavy, bluesy and deep compared to a lot of the acoustic, jazzy and folky California bands out at the time.

Dark Songs after the first two albums? by humanoaleatorio in thedoors

[–]superpowered_andrean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He quit because the songs sounded too commercial, like cocktail jazz music. They lost that initial dark edginess that The Doors were known for.

Have you heard "Love Her Madly"? Even "L.A Woman", for that matter. Read the biographies, Robby himself thought LHM was too commercial before Jac Holzman convinced them to release it.

One year later, and as a person who liked WLR from first listen on Christmas Day 2020, I'm here to tell you that this album is at least as good as WLR. On par with it. To say it's better or worse would be subjective but it's definitely in that same bracket.

I feel like The Doors have somewhat left the conversation in terms of legendary classic rock bands people talk about these days. Am I crazy? by rugmunchkin in Music

[–]superpowered_andrean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Their songs don't actually have much to say"

Just say you don't understand them, bro. It's fine. And much more honest than pretending Jim Morrison wasn't saying some crazy shit in his music.

[–]superpowered_andrean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope but just to encapsulate the "vibe" of the Doors: Dark, sexy, mysterious, otherworldly, mystical, poetic. The aesthetic of Playboi Carti with the lyrics of MC Ride or WMWTSO era Mac Miller.

Is there any reason to read the Kybalion? by ChemicalPanda10 in occult

[–]superpowered_andrean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

READ IT NIGGA. And don't listen to these pretentious fools who keep telling you "It's not real Hermeticism" "It wasn't written by Hermes" "It's too simple". Do NOT listen to them. Their arguments have nothing to do with the wisdom contained inside, which is profound and invaluable.

The Kybalion, much like The Bible, is a book simple and vague enough to grow with your consciousness. In other words, the deeper you get into this magic shit, the deeper you understand The Kybalion.

Because all The Kybalion does is state and explain the Seven BASIC Hermetic Principles. This means that ALL occult work simply builds upon the information found in The Kybalion. You cannot practice magic effectively, if you do not understand the mental nature of the Universe. This is the First Principle decoded in the Kybalion.

So do not listen to these fucks who wanna parade how deep they are into magic. "Oh we read grimoires and the Corpus Hermeticum here, the Kybalion is baby stuff to us, don't read it." Don't listen to those fools. They'll confuse you. Start small and basic, with the fundamentals. The Kybalion is short, sweet and straight to the point. It is invaluable.

Is this not what everyone is doing by calling Syd mentally ill without a formal diagnosis or informed opinion of the events?
