eBook of Shadows.

Electronic Grimoire / eBook of Shadows suits a Computer-oriented Magician / Virtual Adept / that i am.

... it's a black Kindle 10, with a green/grey case and touch-pen.

... i'm storing there documents & media related to Arts & Sciences, to Buddhism & Esoterics.

The magick-related files on electronic devices connect (symbolically) computers/devices to magickal lore, magickal art, magickal symbols & magickal power. This is also example of use of Correspondence Sphere (idea from Mage: the Ascension, from which term: 'Virtual Adept' originates). When symbols representing objects are put close to each other, energy flows more freely, quicker, without disruptions, without unnecessary intermediaries or barriers. A lot of Correspondence work is just that - managing where symbols are put, designing energy flow routes, designing which objects should 'play' with which objects.

One of ebooks stored in my electronic book of shadow's memory is 'Ghosts & Spirits TAROT' by Lisa Hunt.

Unlike printed paper copies, which tend to be misplaced - .pdf files can be backed-up - for example: in cloud storage and/or usb pendrive.

Virtual Adepts, Reality Hackers.

Introduction.

Reality Hackers (also known as: 'Reality Coders' or 'Reality Crackers') is a subgroup of Virtual Adepts, computer-oriented magicians in Mage: the Ascension roleplaying game.

The Reality Hackers are a faction of the Virtual Adepts that focuses its efforts on the transformation of our current reality. They are one of the principal contributors to the project of Reality 2.0.


Metaphors.

My friend once destribed Virtual Adepts as magicians who use computers to 'code programs for stealing apples'.

... is it about stealing fruit(s) from paradise-garden's tree, or is it about hacking macintosh computers to steal control over them?

... or both?

Stealing apples is against God's will - as any stealing is.

Many think that changing Reality is defying God's will as well.

... ;)





How Reality Hackers change Reality?

Buddhists often say that 'Space is Information''.

One can perceive that every atom, electron, ... , or lack of such at a given coordinates is information.

By changing this information, one can change state of Space at given coords.

Space is at least part of Reality, by changing Space one changes Reality as well.

In theory - if computer is connected to Space - programs written on such computer can transform that information, can transform Space.

...

However, Virtual Adepts usually do not use coords in spellcasting, they use symbols related with objects transformed by their code. It's use of Correspondence, one of ideas in Mage: thue Ascension.

Virtual Adepts can change not only quantum objects (either individual quantum object or quantum objects in larger group(s)) with their Magick. Examples are: Manipulating Thoughts in Mind, Aligning perceptions to see Spirit World, etc. These uses can be perceived as high-abstraction-level instructions.

Can everything be reduced to mind perceiving objects in space - trying to see itself? Buddhist Wisdom tries to explore these ideas since time that has no beginning nor end.

... coords can be perceived as a symbol as well.


How to connect Computer to Space?

Computers can be connected with Space by - for example - symbols on Virtual Adept's computer's desktop screen.

Symbols can be images, or whatever representing ideas that connect computer to the Space.

M:tA & TAROT.

Not since today i am styling myself as a Virtual Adept, a member of one of Traditions in Mage: the Ascension roleplaying game.

... i've called art-style that i'm creating: 'Art of Magick & Light'.

Then i've learned from Leaders of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn that roleplaying games have uses in real magick.

... either way, i bought Mage: Ascension TAROT Deck.
