I'm bored so I'll release some info on this project, the goal of the 25th hour is to give this world a "magic system" why? Life is boring honestly, go to school, get a job, retire, die, mid honestly, magic could spice things up, so here are some things that I discovered that I'm too lazy to explain: the afterlife is reincarnation, no religion is completely right, the astral plane exists, and I'm currently doing research on qigong and cultivating it cause I can naturally emit qi out of my hands and figuring out how to weaponizing it. But anyways the main plan is to become immensely strong, take out a couple corrupt politicians, become famous, and then release the guide to use magic. Any questions or ideas

Even if you wanted to, you wouldn't succeed. When you create any tool, you can't be sure that if it is reproduced, it won't be turned against you or into some other evil or other undesirable application.
Given the number of people and the nature of power, money and human behavior, you simply won't be able to mathematically create sufficient impact or control over its application. For this, you either need some kind of system (and all systems controlled by people inherit their sins) or you personally will have to have the ability to be in all places at any given time on earth... which would rather resemble divinity, in which case you probably won't care about people anymore.
Or an even worse option - reduce the number of people to an acceptable level.

Magic is only hidden because people are waaaay too unprepared for it, they would misuse it until the government creates magic police and things are even worse than before
This world has magical systems, some existing since the dawn of time, but the knowledge is only given to those who can receive it without going insane

Thanks for giving me your views on it, it will surely be of use to me in the future

>the knowledge is only given to those who can receive it without going insane
Do you know how it's passed on?

>>40675798

Through lineages or for independent practitioners its slowly drip fed by spirits and diety.

>>40675798
It's what >>40675896 said: through lineage, slow learning during life, or also through sudden experiences
You can try to join on some esoteric group like the Rosicrucian Order, or a spiritualist group like the Kardecists
The problem is knowing if they are legit, I don't trust Thelemic or Chaos groups personally

The root of everything is the Initiation, if done right the person starts noticing some things they never noticed before
The problem is that the new reality might be too overwhelming, and cause psychological disorders or "poltergeist effects"
Having someone to guide you is important, so you have spiritual protection and don't interpret everything wrongly

>>40675896
>it's slowly drip fed by spirits and deities
Via telepathy and/or in dreams?
>>40675987
>The root of everything is the Initiation
Done in person, telepathically, and/or in dreams?
>things are even worse than before
How were things in the past?

>>40676021
Initiation for the mind is usually done in person, for the spirit it's usually in dreams
Both can be done by a spirit you can't see guiding you through a normal life situation however, or like I said, sudden awakening by your own realization

By "things are even worse than before", I meant in an hypothetical scenario were magic is inadvertently spread around, where you would probably have laws against it

>>40674086 (OP)
What about already existing magic systems? Why is this one better?

>>40675987
Why would you need a human guide? You cant be talking about another human guiding people can you? Thats fucking retarded

>>40679601
Someone more experienced, who may be dead or alive, and also have people more experienced guiding them
Let's say you want to go on some dangerous hobby like cave diving, wouldn't you need someone trustworthy and who's pretty good at it to teach you?

>>40681295
Your analogy doesn't work because cave diving is an experience that is palpable to everyone. Whatever the fuck we are talking about is not. Noone in this space has the answers. Its just a shitty analogy and argument for you to try to strengthen your case or resolve. However you want to frame your mind.

>>40674086 (OP)
It seems likely one of us is the mana and the other one is the user. We might have to conjoin our planets' solar system to utilize eachother to... overcome boredom and make weapons? Really tho?
Also politicians are typically more infantile and gullible than we are they aren't typucally the the ones to take out

>>40682836
>Noone in this space has the answers
To believe that no other humans can provide guidance to you is arrogance, anon
A lot of people have the answers, but they keep it a secret

>>40683008
No. No they do not. I know this. You know this. They know this.

>>40683432
Not all men are created equal, and you know this

>>40683541
This is just you opening up your air hole and allowing shit to fall out. Your usual moda operandi

>>40674086 (OP)
I wish everything goes alright.
I would miss you guys too much if it didn't.
See you space cowboys...

>>40674086 (OP)
>afterlife is reincarnation
You mean reincarnation is being born in another world, like Neville described.
I like your idea, but you seem to forget that the collective unconscious is the very strong thing that makes overt magic so difficult. It's not a matter of you being strong. Reality is a 100% cooperative psychic affair.

>>40674086 (OP)
Sounds like the plot of an Isekai anime.

>>40684192
I have tried to be a good person simply because it makes for a peaceful life, but if it also earns me a reincarnation on a nicer planet then that would be a nice bonus.

One of the 1st things you learn in driving is where the godsdamned brakes are.

One of the 1st things you "learn" in magick is how to defend yourself.
An "Initiation" is bandied about as a requirement to begin doing magick, but it's only the decision to pursue it!
>There's no "Mother, may I?" needed!
"But you need experience before you can have experience!"
>BS! Is there no HRMFers here stopping you from getting what you want, do, or enjoy? "Do what you wilt shall be the Whole of the Law; Love under Will!"!
"You need to join a group to learn their ways, and they may let you do Real Magick someday."
>BS!
"There is Only One True Right Way to do magick!
>More BS!
You must have a ancestral pedigree in magick or witchcraft to use it!
>Yes, commit organizational suicide because you're morons!

The Right Christcucks will tell you you're going to their Right Christcuck Hell!
>Just more Xtian FUD to convince you to Obey them! Only they go to their Christcuck Hell! More BS!

It's a lot like starting a newsletter. "You have no experience, so how could you possibly do it? (An employer attitude that employees absorb and come to believe in for everything in their lives)"
>You do it by doing it! Tell the World to go fuck off! So, you screw it up? You'll learn! There's no Devils or Demons to "Super Bat Snatch" you away to some hellhole.

Magick started when some Egyptian was royally pissed and needed any resuolution, and none was socially possible. This person took a cheap pewter plate, wrote someone's name on it, pushed all their emotional vitriol, anger, and hatred of the Intended on to it then threw it as hard as possible against a wall until it broke. Or s/he got a candle, wrote his name, and what s/he Intended happening to him, and let it burn down, or burned a paper written on it!

My god, it takes at least a PhD ("Piling it higher and Deeper!") and at least 5 years experience to begin that!
>Guess what my answer would be? Something like where to put it!

>>40686275
NTA, but it's more like learning martial arts than starting a newsletter: it's not like you can't learn it on your own, but that without sparring and guidance you are just cementing mistakes and putting yourself in risk

Magic was given to Egypt by the descendants of Atlantis, and if you tried to find where it started, it would go all the way back as given by the Self-Created God
