Mysticism, Freedom, Karma, Destiny & Fate.

What is Mysticism?

It's listening to one's inner voice, and following it as one's morality dictates.

One can say that it's 'Way of the Doll' that dances as the Spiritual Authority(-ies) pull the strings.

Spiritual Practices can lead one to become a Mystic.


What is Freedom?

... i think it's the ability to choose one's Goal(s) and Way that leads there, accepting all of strings attached, even painful ones ... including limitations, hindrances and other things - good & bad - associated with the Way.


Karma, Destiny & Fate.

Karma is the Law of Cause & Effect. There's belief that certain practices can transform karma, that there's the Way to Freedom.

Destiny / pl: Przeznaczenie / is - or i think so at least - the strong Karma that dictates how one is (re)born, where one's lives are directed. By changing Karma one can challenge the destiny. It's possible but quite difficult to challenge the Destiny. One can also make karma stronger, harder to change by seeding the seeds of Destiny to protect the progress from changing direction in this and future lives.

Fate / pl: Fatum / is - or so i think at least - stronger form of Destiny. It's extremely difficult to challenge one's Fate. Fate can be used - and is used - in practices to protect one from detracting from one's Way, in this and future lives.

I think i read somewhere - in wise book(s) - that once a Buddhist reaches certain stage of development
/ thinking: Mahamudra /, the Buddhist Way for him or her becomes his/her Karma and Fate at the same time.

Terrible Karmic Consequences of Curses and other forms of Black Magick.

... i've had a chat with an internet friend.


... he warned me about consequences of magick abuses.


Then i remembered a buddhist tale, it arose to my mind from memory.


There was buddhist hero, Milarepa - who studied at youth black magic and on one night he used it against family enemies by wish of his mother.

His magic turned to be very effective, he killed many.

Then his karma detoriated, he practiced to purify it for whole life ... and suffered greatly.

... at old age he had purified it all and became hero instead of criminal.


... so black magick and curses have terrible consequences, one should be wary of that.


As friend summarized:

'Yes, you can see a lot of ruined individuals in newage circles, perhaps for that reason - it is sometimes the case you see their lives in tatters'.

Lucky Numbers, Karma, ... & Date of Birth.

My personal lucky numbers,

As told by Astrology & Numerology, are:

* 9 - as nine lives of a cat, as greater power,
* 2 - as a pair, of lovers, perhaps? two is not alone for sure,
* 14 - pair of sevens, lucky pair,

i think other lucky numbers apply to me as well,
* 7 - as to everyone,
* 108 - because of Buddhism & Kangyur, Holy Text.

... perhaps more as well ...
