I’ll tell you a little about one of these basic things in magic, which, in principle, allows the magician to develop and move forward. We are talking about a certain attitude towards events and situations. The magician perceives all events in his life as certain consequences of the state of his consciousness and his life choices. And this allows him to always bear one hundred percent responsibility for everything that happens to him. The magician never assumes that he has encountered some random event, some injustice, some situation that is superfluous here. A person may say: “I don’t need this situation, but I need others.” A magician will never say that. He clearly sees and understands that his own consciousness interacts with the outside world and, as a result, different situations and events arise. And if a magician wants to change something on the outside, he looks inside himself, sees where resonances arise and what settings of consciousness generate them.
We have two zones in consciousness: the zone associated with the current personality, and the zone associated with past incarnations. And a lot of resonances come from the subconscious. A person does not see all these things, and for him everything that happens to him really seems illogical and random. The magician's personality penetrates the subconscious, and he sees what is happening there and consciously controls it. You can imagine certain strings of the soul that reach out into the outside world, resonate with something and create music. And then the person himself will represent a certain melody. This melody can be harmonious, or it can be disharmonious. Any situation is connected with this melody, with the strings of the soul that emanate from consciousness to the universe. Magicians see them, but people don’t.
Moreover, these strings, these resonances for people of the first three castes operate at a low frequency, and everything that happens to their consciousness is reflected not in situations, but in their body. Harmony is a healthy organism, disharmony is a sick one. And based on the state of health of a person from the first three castes, you can immediately tell whether he is thinking correctly. And the situations that arise for him are connected not so much with what he thinks, but with what he does through the physical body. For magicians, thinking is action. In the fourth caste, the very process of the work of consciousness leads to interaction with the system, and some situations immediately arise. I thought something wrong and got hit on the head. And by the situations in which a person of the fourth caste finds himself, we can say whether he thinks correctly or not. If he has situations in which he experiences great stress, it means that he is simply thinking incorrectly and he needs to change something in his mind. These are the criteria.
The magician looks at his situations and what gives rise to them within him. He will never run to blame the president, neighbor, relatives or friends for what is happening to him. He will go to sort himself out, and this leads to him changing and moving somewhere. At the same time, there is a vertical development, and it is accompanied by a growth of consciousness: the volume of consciousness in the contract increases. The magician's situation also grows, expanding like a kind of spot. The situation of a first-level magician is some small cells in the system in which not many elements are involved. Let's say that for a first-level magician it is measured in tens of elements, and for a second-level magician it is already in the hundreds. These could be some large, complex processes in which the magician’s consciousness serves as a controlling element. And according to the state of the situation, he adjusts his consciousness.
