Everything changes as time goes by. Many things have come and gone over the years.
I do what I can to keep track of the best of what has been. Copies of websites and screenshots of things.
A lot of neat things were in existence from the 2000’s to 2015, and many can only be found on the Wayback Machine now. Lots has disappeared for good ever since social media became popular and a bunch of schlockmeisterism and crapola became the norm. Good things can still be found, but the entire internet has changed and a lot of noise and sub-par productions have taken over.
In many ways, it seems like the total transformed social millieu of this era has made it so that few things of great depth or high quality exist any more.
So, for me, I’ve attempted to preserve what’s best. I gathered pdf copies of Dale Power’s old websites and the essays there, combined it with notes from the enlightenedstates website and this forum and put it in a book that I printed out for myself and reference while training.
There are some things I hadn’t explored much, like ETs and ancient aliens. But, since they’re a portion of the culture here, I’ve picked up a book or so about them. I’ve looked more into Chaos Magick, and even a copy of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea sits on my shelf at this time— GIving me a greater appreciation of where we are at the bottom of this endless Astral Ocean.
Lots of nice lessons learned. Lots of many things to still explore.
We’ll see how it develops, but (even if you’re right and it dies) we can still keep the best things alive.
and has helped me realized I am in fact NOT alone out here. And there is greater support than I realized.
