Books moved out of the /fringe/ library due to huge filesize ☻ 04/07/15 (Tue) 04:39:22 No. 31562 [Last 50 Posts]
https://mega.co.nz/#F!K8wTjbiZ!mWFZsQRr2SZYC1AsoE6Shw Due to these books having an unnecessarily huge filesize they have all been removed from the /fringe/ library and won't be added back until someone makes much smaller filesize versions of them that are cleaned up. Please help make smaller and cleaner versions of these PDFs for inclusion in the proper library.
A few are shit books and don't matter and I'll probably delete them but most are really good books we should have in the library.

Deleting some Folder Notes... ☻ 04/07/15 (Tue) 06:07:38 No. 31581
This misc folder is for books that fit the following qualifications: - low quality - lots of disinformation - I hold the author in low esteem - I consider the philosophy to be flawed - or just does not have any information that is relevant to the practise of magic (The Swastika.pdf and Who Put Bella In The Wych Elm.pdf being the two examples present as of June/23/2014) Basically these are books that I don't intend to read any time soon or that I have read already completely (such as Seven Success Secrets of Hypnotism). Regarding that pdf on hypnotism I would like to comment the following: - I found it an interesting insight into how mainstream hypnotists practise - I found the recommendations about how you form the language important, however Lobsang Rampa already says a lot more on the matter, and so does Franz Bardon (albeit a bit more briefly, yet very concisely), and probably other authors will comment on the matter of giving instructions to the subconscious. If you want to give instructions to your subconscious you must not leave anything open to interpetation and must be very direct. The subconscious takes everything very literally. If you've read Initiation Into Hermetics then you do not really need to read the "Seven Success Secrets of Hypnotism" though it's not a very long text if you're interested still in reading it regardless. Those LHP books seem kind of shitty, I still have to look into them at a later time, but magic very obviously should be a balanced affair. With the capacity to heal and regenerates comes the capacity to disrupt and destroy them for example – so heal or curse it's up to the magical operator. LHP appears to me to be full of useless blather and weak magic. I don't know but those texts don't seem important to me, someone message me if you disagree. E.A. Koetting seems like more of a salesman than a magician btw. Enoch Tan - Mind Reality is just really poorly put together by some chink and I think has a heavy dose of disinfo and New Age nonsense. Everything described in that book, you will learn in a less confused manner by reading The Kybalion and several other occult texts in my folders or in Montalk's book recommendation list instead. >Updates June/23/2014 - first version of this note

The old Chaos Magick folder note ☻ 04/07/15 (Tue) 06:16:05 No. 31587
The Chaos Magic folder. Sorry but at present this folder is not organized, has no quality control, etc. it is just a collection of all my texts, pdfs, and documents that I have on chaos magick. I've read about half the material in here and a lot of it is redundant and low in useful information which is scattered in amongst a lot of reiterations of the basics of chaos magic as well as just random crap. I think it would be best we just take all the information from all these books and write our own chaos magick book which actually contains a comprehensive overview of every single technique and piece of knowledge you need to know and nothing more so that you can learn everything essential in just one book. A lot of these books says a "whole lot of nothing" unfortunately. If you are not patient and want to develop your magical power really quickly then ignore all of this for now until it's better sorted and everything. You should be reading all of the Fringe Essentials first regardless. I think a few of these books in here might not even be magic books but just some random junk that got in here somehow which is associated with the chaos magick theme. Most of this material is for occultists with a certain humour and a fondness for reading lots but if you are a neophyte and try to start off with this, unless you already have natural power that you just didn't know was active, you will probably not get results from doing this.
Most of the talk of sigilcasting on /fringe/ is from chaotees who've been reading about chaos magick. It's really weak if you haven't done a ton of energy work and meditation and other preparatory work in developing your magical capacities beforehand and it's also fairly unpredictable and can fuck you over. I personally would stick to working with thoughforms then using most of the methods delineated in these chaos magick texts as they can be more carefully constructed and are more powerful (it's what I do, I am especially fond of making orbs and programming various functions and sending them out into the world to do my will, while other wizards might use sigils to do the same). I've used sigils for some things but get unpredictable results and I know others who've fucked themselves over by using sigils (not necessarily from the chaos magick paradigm, more often from the Left Hand Path) where a text says it will do one thing but when they actually activate it and use it … it ends up doing something else. Using someone else's sigils is kind of like of like downloading random .exe files from shady sites to your computer and running them and potentially getting a virus.
I find it rather hilarious btw that "Chaos - A Very Short Introduction" is one of the biggest books in my folder here. Most of these are only about 10-30 pages long and some a lot less.
Check out
https://freedomboard.kirara.ca/chaos/ for discussion of these books and of chaos magick.
Here's an excerpt out of "APIKORSUS - An essay on the diverse practices of CHAOS MAGICK from the Lincoln Order Of Neuromancers L.O.O.N." which is very much worth reading (the rest of the book isn't really).
——————————
Common to the various systems/traditions/paradigms of Magick are certain key concepts. We urge the reader not to accept/reject these as theoretical constructs, but to try and verify them by personal experience.
1. The Whole is encoded within each of its constituents - "As above, so below."
2. The Whole is interconnected, and all relative wholes partake in consciousness to varying degrees.
3. The Whole is self-organizing, and the evolution of all forms is governed by similar principles.
4. By means of a trained and directed will, we can effect change (probability > possibility) at various levels of organization.
5. Change is the only constant!
6. The Whole is more than the sum of its parts
7. Our beliefs define the limits of our allowed experience
8. "Everyday Reality" is not the limit of our experience - by entering Altered States of Consciousness we can experience other realities.
9. The entities which may be encountered during our experience of those other realities are real within their own world. To question their relative existence is unimportant, since the universe behaves as if they do exist.
10. Magical ability is engendered through an inward, transformative journey.

here is a much smaller version of atkinsons Mysteries of Sex or Sex Polarity. Method: Copy all text from the PDF in Foxit Reader Paste all text into GoogleDocs Print the document - this will be printed as a PDF. Benefit - Took this 15 MB beast down to ~800 kb, took less than a minute Problems - 1. The copy didn't carry over the italicized portions, and there are several parts of the text that came out a little strange though it is still completely readable. Capitalizations and the like are fine still however. 2. Did not copy the image. If there are multiple images in a text, you would have to copy those over by hand which would increase the time required.

adonistische kabbalah I think is a big book of sigils with sigils on every page, not sure if it'll even be possible to reduce the filesize of it, due to the book consisting largely of images. It's not even English language either so I guess there's no point having it in the /fringe/ library. Please not also that The Swastika is pretty much the same, a lot of images, and also isn't really an important book and can be skipped.Who Put Bella in the Wych Elm is already optimized I think but it's a shit book that doesn't really belong in the library regardless. As for Michael Talbot - The Holographic Universe there is already a much smaller filesize version of it in the library with some of the missing pages included in it, it just needs to have its formatting fixed. The rest I think just need to be done.

Sorry, was busy. I can't do Magickal use of Thoughtforms - too much conversion errors and the effort in fixing them would be comparable to re-writing the whole book (also, it is readable as it is- I'm halfway through it, filesize sucks though).
Post which book should I do next (apart from Magickal Use… ofc) and I'll do it in a week as I will have more time, if it's conversable ofc.
Srsly, last few weeks were really hard, didn't have enough time to study magick/meditate/read/all-that-good-Neophyte-stuff not to mention working on pdfs. That gonna change soon I hope.

Are you sure you can't do something to remove that fuzz and then convert it and hopefully get less errors?

Can Evola's book be made smaller?

I really want that book done somehow… but if it can't be done play something else.

I literally don't know shit about how to do it in proffesional way. All I did was google for some conversion tool, than torrent it (ABBYY Finereader), use it, than fix most errors manually. Perhaps there are better ways to do it, but I wouldn't know anything about it. I'll research some more.
Also Smiley, I wanted to ask someone who knows their shit about one thread here - there was this thread about sth like "do you remeber how you died?" or sth like that (cannot find it right now, but am absurdally tired) and there was this anon who claimed to be some Chaos - possessed devotee and it got me thinking. He claimed that Chaos is everywhere, it's the most powerful thing etc. What's your insight on this? I thought that the Law was above All. Also what do you think about that "first world" and fake human beings?

Ah that thread, it was an example of channelling some entity and letting it talk through oneself.

We all died that one day and hardly anyone even noticed…

It was so sudden, so many lost souls. At best a very brief moment of recognition that the timeline collapsed and we were all transplanted.

Hi smiley, i would be Enthralled to help you in this Little task, but the Probability is that you Might not be able to compress any of the E-books without decreasing the quality.

You can buy them on kindle then use calibre to convert. This will get around compressing already existing pdfs reducing quality.

You don't need to compress shit, you just need to convert it from each page being images, into each page just being text (leaving only images where absolutely necessary).
By default, every single page is a picture of text.

I tried making some, adonistische kabbalah came out 20mb so still shit but then again it's full of sigils and images. Works of darkness came out 1 mb less even when deleting the cover so my guess is since it hasn't got many images it's the best you can get, maybe deleting the huge black borders of the pages would do but frankly I think it's too much work for probably not that good a result plus I feel like the book would lose its flavour.
The only really successful one was atkinson's The mistery of sex or sex polarity which came out 1,3 mb. Here's the link

Gonna try the other ones later.

Works of Darkness is a shit book anyways because of its author so you can ignore it but the reason the filesize on that book is so damned big is those background images that create the black borders.

Weird, I uploaded it to mega so I assume that's just a personal page or something. How do I put it public? I just see the page as I see other links only with the option to delete etc., what do you see?
