Does magic work?

By which I mean, does the concept of "As below, so above" have any veracity?

Of course, the answer is unknowable, but intuitively, I think, yes. It's just that we don't have a lot of control over the 'as below' part. Which is to say, practical magic (is that an oxymoron?), the creation of models to influence the larger case, is in my opinion, nonsense.

On the other hand, I believe that if you change yourself - I will leave the discussion over whether or not that is possible for a later time - you change  the world.

Because, of course, your view of the world is highly dependent on your mental/emotional/rational view of the world, something that exists only in the subjective Universe. If you change the way you 'see' things, you change what you are seeing.

  1. How do you change your view? If your view is nformed and dependent on your mental/emotional/rational, then to change your view would require independence from your mental/emotional/rational,wouldn't it?
    Coincidentally, I watched a video from that documentary channel you turned me onto.I enjoyed it, so if you want to check it out, the address is -
