If you don't comprehend the power of belief I don't really know what to say back lol. Have you ever known someone that just needed to be believed in or who didn't believe in themselves enough to get a job done?Â
Would you expect a stranger to help them if you don't even believe them to be real? Let alone a spirit? Do you think a higher life form on the other side is going to waste its time listening to you if you don't even believe in it's existence.Â
Each of us has a Daemon, guardian angel, higher self, soul.... Etc.. without the belief of something you will be too full of doubt to discern with consistency, and untill you believe(know it in your bones) you will always be separate from your true self and wander the earth like a modern materialist that BELIEVES this is all there is.
We all have our own journey and some would prefer to think it ends at death, that's fine. For those who believe otherwise there is a massive and beautiful world out there to go and explore.

Also comparing mateys experience with mine I would say belief is the only reason Im having such a great time with this, if I didn't believe/meet demon girl half way it wouldn't be as powerful because I would be doubting my experience, the lack of belief would make it less vivid, less real, less fun and less scary lol

That's definitely getting into a completely different conversation, but in short it sounds like you are describing religion lol.
It's only as real as you let it become. Most, if not all of it can be explained by our brains and senses.

I mean if you look at the esoteric side of every religion all over the planet since the dawn of man we have always been aware of the other side, all religions are the same when you pull away the silly historical interpretations and read between the lines instead of thinking they are literal. The very recent and small blip of materialism was born out of the monotheistic religions, i.e. dualism. The belief of man as separate from the whole and that we are not all one is what gave birth to atheism, which even Darwin the genius who proposed the theory was way beyond, just look at all his other works school didn't teach you, and even still we are now moving on to breakthroughs in physics on a quantum level, we can create life like virtual realities, there are drugs that can send people to seemingly alternate realms where time is suspended, people can achieve similar through breathwork, the CIA worked with Bob Monroe in astral projection, so outside of materialism and dumbed down religious views we have always been aware of other dimensions and still are. Neuroscientist agreeing with the ancient teaching of Buddhism, UFO sightings, and the thousands of other things that would tell anyone who questions things that there is more to life than brain and senses, the only people who really believe in materialism and a lack of a spiritual existence are the poorly educated people over the last 100 years, all the elites believe it, the celebrities, the royal families, the richest and most powerful people on the planet all go to clubs and lodges where they engage in ritual work with ancient godfroms etc.. atheism is just the end result of 2000+ years of dualism (the new monotheistic faiths. Just my opinion though lol

. . .
atheism is just the end result of 2000+ years of dualism (the new monotheistic faiths.) I was going to agree, then to disagree, then checked WiKi ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dualism), and understood why. What do you mean under dualism? As there are many concepts (even contradicting each other) called dualism. E.g. subject-object, body-soul, physical-mental, good-evil, consciousness-nonconsciousness, direct and indirect, etc.

No, but on an esoteric level, the mystical teachings of Jesus are the same as the Buddha and the others before. It's the same message with different language, culture, symbolism etc.. Same underlying message, though.
None of those are contradictive, they all imply separation which gives birth to dualism, the external world mirrors our internal one because they are one and the same, there is no subject or object. We are confusing our reflection as something separate. The mirror is an illusion, yet while we are here we need to live life and engage to the fullest, but to believe this is THE reality is like someone believing they are their reflection and forgetting there is a mirror in front of themÂ
How often do you doubt the strange nature of a dream that upon waking from you know to be an unreality.Â
It's your belief that the dream is real (material) that dooms you to be pulled around like a puppet rather than take control. Buddhism recommends lucid dreaming because when you become lucid in a dream you are like a god and can do anything u want. It's amazing and feels more real than this reality, and you start to know how much like the dream world this life is. Dreams are dreams within a dream. This is the collective dream of the collective consciousness. When we die we enter into the waking state, u can either learn to lucid dream and understand the other side while u are here, or you will wake up confused and believing your bardo realm to be real and thus being pulled around like you are dreaming.
A better mode of duality would be samsara/NirvanaÂ
But outside of being in either they are both the same, just as left and right are two hands if the same body, the unconscious mind and conscious one make up the mind. Countries make up the world, life and death make the circle of life. The underworld and this world are only separate based on each individual's vibration. But vibration is vibration. A character in a book may believe it's life to be free, and it's ken, but the author knows they are all part of the story and exist really only in the creator's mind

Do you believe in magic 100%, the past experiences with succubus I described at the time I wasn't fully sold on it being real, but too much stuff has happened to me for there to be any doubt left, I've fully immersed myself in the world of the occult and magic etc.. it's definitely real. (My opinion) For years I was always skeptical even though I'd seen things that should of been proof enough, but always doubt myself and reality, always have, then you realize this reality is such a tiny part of our life and our soul and then the mind rips open and can never be closed again lol
This life is the land of the dead, the word tomb and womb are interchangeable, our higher self(the daemon) is who we really are, through meditation and the building up of and then dissolution of the ego you can hear it, rewire your mind, release trauma stress and past experience, undo habits and then you will hear who you really are, not what the dense plane has made you. But don't recoil and hate the place or yourself, understand that you (your true self) wants everything and enjoys everything. You are getting off on your misery and on your happiness, you are a kinky fuck that out yourself in the dream like world for the challenge of becoming lucid, so learn to lucid dream (Andrew holecek has in my opinion the best books on this is. Dreams of light and dream yoga, he also has a lucid dream guid book). When you have had a few lucid dreams your ready to get into astral projection and can see thhe higher planes and your true self, plus spirits and all kinds of shit. U will become aware there are many planes we cannot taste even in our light body, there are truly levels to this game of life and death. Sorry for the rant I just felt to share lol. But yh like in Peter pan, if people don't believe in magic the Fae disappear and we cannot even see then let alone work with them
Yes I'm with this but still in the learning process I Agree here

I could not explain consciousness other than the input from our sensory system.
And then of course the self-awareness aspect of it.
What I am mostly trying to say is that I do not believe there is actually another entity, not in the same concept of you and I being humans, or living creatures that have a physical form.
I don't personally believe things like egregore's actually exist outside of psychological human tendencies to be a part of groups, however large, and "fit in" etc.Â
In short, I guess you can convince yourself that there is some "spirit girl" entity that is taking you over, but I don't think there actually is one, not in the same realm of someone legitimately taking over your neurons and firing them and you are incapable of controlling it.Â
I don't want to derail this thread too much lol, it's way too easy to do when talking about these subjects
