What are the path of light and the path of darkness? What path do a majority of religions follow and where will that get you? Is it the destiny of every soul to be the God of their own reality?

In this episode, Melektoth and Elinara discuss the difference between the path of light and the path of darkness, why most people will not choose to step into their godhood, where free will fits into the picture, and delve deep into the idea of self-deification and godhood.

Notable Quotes "There's not really a middle path because the end goals of both of those paths are totally at odds." "Being a God is about a lot more than just, 'How do you manifest this one desire?'" "Almost all religions are on the right hand path and they say that they are of the light." "All of these religions have the same end goal, which is the diminishment of the self, of the ego, to such an extent that you dissolve into the all, into God, into the Divine, that you are subsumed into that totality." "If you look at any part of these religions, they are basically causing you to sacrifice yourself." "If you're on the right hand path, if you're on the path of light, you are beholden to some higher laws, some higher being who is saying this is what you do or this is what you don't do." "On the left hand path there is no higher being, higher force, than yourself." "If reality is perfect as it is, what's the purpose of your free will? Why have free will if you need to make no decisions, if reality is as it is, and you shouldn't want to change that?" "There is no morality besides what you dictate for yourself." "You get to dictate how you are going to live your life." "It's a huge amount of power that you have at your fingertips, literally, and that's scary to some people." "People would rather everyone be weak than a few people be strong." "Attachment says, 'I want this and I don't have the power to get it.'" "On the right hand path, it's THY will be done, and on the left hand path, it's MY will be done. You get to choose." "People would rather be a victim and complain about the injustice of life than take power, take control, and change it." "In the darkness, you are ascending into your own godhood." "You can't take total control of your own reality and at the same time say, For the highest good of all." Links

Does it seem like negative manifestations keep coming up in your life? Are you overwhelmed by things going wrong and don't know how to change them? Our negative manifestations can be quite persistent sometimes and hard to remove from our reality.

If you could just learn how to stop feeding these negative manifestations, then they would simply disappear. In this podcast, Melektoth and Elinara will tell you exactly how to do that.

Episode Highlights

• [01:10] Our new dog, Gino
• [02:22] Your manifestations are like seeds
• [04:48] Just thinking about your negative manifestations will not make them grow
• [08:01] What is the current state of your garden?
• [09:51] Life is responding to you, not you to life
• [13:26] Your negative manifestations beg for your attention
• [15:11] There are no lucky breaks
• [17:22] Stop looking to God
• [20:58] You are the God of your reality
• [23:13] Life is not cruel
• [24:47] The power of non-reaction
• [29:14] Your negative manifestations will try to scare you
• [30:58] The Anatomy of Resistance

Notable Quotes The garden of your soul or of your mind is reflected by your outer reality. You have to take responsibility for what's going on. Once a manifestation gets going, it really gets going, and it demands attention. If you keep responding to life in the way that you've always responded to life, you will keep watering those same seeds, and you will keep growing the same things you've always grown in that metaphorical garden. You will keep getting the same manifestations you have always gotten. You have to change on the inside for anythin gto change on the outside. No God is going to give us blessings or take things away from us. That's up to us. It's not God. It's you. For me the law of attraction is about responsibility. It's about you being the God of your reality, not giving over control to some other God. No one's coming to save you. As long as you maintain your current attitude, life will maintain its trajectory. Sometimes the Universe has to slap you across the face. You can't just hope for good things. That won't work. You have to stop reacting to the bad things, for them to stop. Links

There is a power that if used, would completely free you from all resistance. Unfortunately this power is so simple, something you've probably heard countless times before, that you will reject it off hand as something you already know.

Yet if you aren't applying this simple idea, then it's just intellectual knowledge. The true application of this power— the power of acceptance— would truly free you from all suffering, all pain, and even all negative manifestations.

Despite what seems self-evident to our ego, if you were to completely accept what is, your life would change virtually in an instant. You would begin to get all the things you want.

Press play to learn how this power can be used in your own life.

Episode Highlights

• 01:36 – Acceptance is counterintuitive for the ego
• 05:02 – What you push against, just gets bigger
• 07:17 – Acceptance weakens all problems and moves you towards what you want
• 10:03 – Acceptance is an instant key to the present moment
• 15:06 – It's OK to feel good about the future or the past, but all power is in the present
• 20:21 – Am I accepting what is?

Notable Quotes When you struggle, what do you get? You get more struggle. When you accept that which you don't want— that which you don't prefer in your life— it weakens. Acceptance is really powerful because it just unravels the knot of the undesirable situation in your life. It is in the present moment that all your power rests. By resisting, you are stripping yourself of your power. Pure acceptance— there's no pushing, there's no pulling— it's just this silence, this stillness, in the moment. Links

Read the Transcript

Notable Quotes I believe in the Law of Attraction. I believe that you get whatever you put out there but I also believe that we have influence. If we are all one beneath the surface, then it would make sense that we can influence someone else. Everyone has been able to do it since the beginning of time… so to say that you can't do it, goes against all of human experience. Our thoughts are so powerful. We can do good or ill upon another with our thoughts. As long as you are in the positive, as long as you have a positive intention, then you are not going to be harming someone else. All too often the poisoner becomes the poisoned. The poison you deal out to another is often put back on you. How you approach others is how your life will be as well… The more positively you approach others, the more positively your life will turn. Links

Are you calling the shots in your life? Or do you feel as though life keeps happening to you and you're constantly putting out fires and dealing with crises? Are you placing your happiness on conditions that are continuously moving just out of reach?

In times gone by, it was forbidden to utter a word of darkness or talk about the influence that Darkness has on the world at all without being punished in some way for doing so. Times have advanced and the world has moved on. In recent years, Darkness has become popularized and in some cases even glorified by the media, and various others who practice elements of darkness without the knowledge or understanding of what they are truly doing. In this week's transmission, Melektoth and Elinara bring us along an observational journey spanning multiple religions and time periods to demonstrate the wide acceptance that Darkness has found among the people of today. Take one more step into your Dark Ascent.

In This Episode

• Why hearing "I Love Lucifer" took Melektoth by complete surprise.
• From historical steps toward acceptance to mainstream media popularizing dark beings.
• The trend you cannot ignore.
• The two places in which Law of Attraction followers get stuck.

 

"I think it's intriguing because I don't think we would have seen this, like I said, even a few decades ago"

"I had been led astray by Satan and that I had lost the truth"

"The old Aeon was all about Good and Evil, and this battle between Good and Evil"

"You cannot just have light. You must have light and dark"

"Any kind of magick for material purposes was sort of seen as Black Magick and evil"

"You can have what you want and it's okay is now a very popular idea"

"The universe is not going to give you things if you lie to yourself"

"The Darkness doesn't tell you how you can be happy"

This transmission will bring you ever deeper into your Dark Ascent. This week, our hosts Melektoth and Elinara plunge into the topic of "The Veil". What is the veil?  It's the thing that distracts us and shrouds our deepest desires in secrecy. The area of our mind that has us worried and anxious over superficial things while real meaning and purpose escapes us. It's a curtain that very few are willing to move aside and step beyond. It's made up of our thoughts, emotions, ideas and perceptions. It feeds us fuel that shapes our opinions and reactions. Does it control us? It doesn't have to. Click play and tune in to learn how to look beyond the veil, and even how to step over to the other side and begin finding the answers you've been seeking for so long.

 

In This Episode:

 

• What does going beyond the veil actually mean?
• Does more positive thinking actually equate to being happier?
• Every man and every woman is a star.
• Controlling behaviour will not get you what you want.
• Seeing through the veil.
• You are that which is beyond your thoughts and feelings.

 

"If you need something, you're not going to get it"

"Let me try to get more of the positive thoughts and fewer of the negative thoughts and I'll be happy"

"It's really hard, if not impossible, to control the mind"

"Can you be happy in the meantime?"

"You can't magick or LOA your way into controlling any person"

"Happiness doesn't come from these surface level experiences"

"The trick is to not be attached"

"Emotions are not you, they are not who you are"

"Belief is one thing, but truth is another"

What's the point of religion? Does it matter? Does it actually make a difference in your life? These are questions you might hear other people asking. You might even ask them yourself. In this chapter of your Dark Ascent, Melektoth and Elinara discuss organized religion and whether or not it still has a place in the modern world. Each host shares their experiences with religion throughout their upbringing, and shed light on similarities between religions from all over the world. Ever our guide, Melektoth explains the role of certain members of religious groups who are put in place to help guide you through various transitions that will occur throughout your life, and describes the times and events in which belonging to a church or religious organization, or at least subscribing to a belief system can be a positive thing. Whether you value organized religion or not, this transmission is an important one. Tune in and continue your Dark Ascent.

Welcome to the Dark Ascent Podcast, where we illuminate the path to finding your True Will. Have you ever wondered why the number of people attending church is dropping every year? Or why we are pushing toward having more rights and freedoms than ever before? As time ticks away, the beliefs of old are becoming outdated, and the more we move toward a future based on individuality and liberation, the more radical the response is becoming from those who wish to keep things the same. As one Aeon ends, another begins, and Aleister Crowley wrote about this exact thing in 1904. In this episode, Melektoth and Elinara discuss the differences between each of the 3 Aeons: Isis, Osiris and Horus. They delve into what characterizes each, and how it can be observed in our current reality. The shift is happening before our very eyes, you just need to know what you're looking for. Take one more step toward your Dark Ascent.

• Existence is all joy and sorrow is an illusion
• The 3 Aeons: Isis,Osiris, and Horus

Have you tried living life the way other people have expected you to, only to feel dissatisfaction or even resentment as the result? Have you subscribed yourself to the ideals and steps someone else used to attain success, only to fall short? No matter what spiritual pursuit or teacher you follow, they all have some version of this message: your life's journey is different from the rest of the world, and it's supposed to be. Your purpose on earth is to find out what your purpose on earth is. That sounds crazy at surface level, but it's true. The longer you continue on the path of self study, and exploring your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual gifts and preferences, you'll become ever more clear on who you truly are, and what your True Will is. Stop pursuing a path laid out for you by someone else. Start discerning what your own path looks like, and where it leads. You're one step closer to your Dark Ascent.

In This Episode

• What happened last Friday?
• Who are the OTO?
• Your True Will doesn't contradict.
• When the student outgrows the teacher.
• Being successful doing what you want to do.
• Avoid making decisions out of ego, let life unfold.

 

"The whole thing was really powerful"

"It's important to have practices that meet us where we are"

"You should never do a ritual just because someone tells you to."

"If you're following your true will, you are in perfect harmony with the universe"

"If you hate what you do, it is not your true will"

"If you know the next step, that's really all you need right now."

"If you have the desire to do great things, then you will do great things"
