- this is the reality behind castanedan talk of holes in the aura, the
- left-hand tantrik avoidance of ambition, and much other denigration
- of materialism by many magickal traditions. carreers are parasites: they
- suck about 35 - 40 years out of your life (more intensely, perhaps, to
- fathers than mothers). whatever you were doing before, stops, and
- the job becomes the center of your existence.
-
- Just a reality check for the folks who aren't trying to have a life...;)
