Real Magic
Svetodar
So, I was taking vocal lessons, and they told me: “Imagine there’s a piston in your body; when you inhale, it moves ’like this,’ and when you sing, it moves ’like that.’” I tried to visualize it, I breathed, and—lo and behold—I sounded better! What kind of magic is this!
Imagine that instead of a
piston, there’s a chakra in your body, like a flower with petals…
I worked with the petals, and—lo and behold—I feel better!
Imagine your spirit animal is approaching you…
We met, we worked together, and—lo and behold—I became healthier and more active.
This list could go on forever, but the point remains the same: it doesn’t really matter how ‘real’ or ‘unreal’ the magic is. What matters is that it works!
Once you’ve felt your “piston” and trained that control to the point of being automatic—voila! You are on a different level of self-mastery and a different level of interacting with the World. The level of magic.
After all, it is our own responsibility to make magic real for ourselves.
I remember a person who, while studying astral practices, reached a certain stage and declared: “This is all nonsense.” And with that, he ended the “nonsense” in his life. Now he’ll never sing an opera—because without the conscious control of the piston, the result is rather weak.
