Working with demons

 

An interesting sneak peek into the world of demons from the anonymous magician whose YouTube channel is named "Lifting the Lamp". He has previous experience of the OTO and is currently practicing some form of Golden Dawn system. 

He refuses to discuss the deeper nature of demons (let me guess: the Lemurian deviation?) but he does say enough to scare the hell out of you, if you happen to believe in the paranormal! The demons really are out to get us, and they have increasingly started to reveal themselves and influence the world at large. The bizarre polarization and fragmentation in the current body politic mimics the chaos of the demonic realm and might tell you who is pulling the strings...

There are two main ways in which a magician can work with demons. The "classical" approach is to command them in the name of God to follow the orders of the mage. Compare the legend of how king Solomon built the Temple with the aid of demons! The problem with this approach should be obvious: unless you are, well, Solomon presumably, the risk is that the demons will escape and start wreaking havoc in your house or your life (or the Temple)...

The other approach is just as bad, and includes rituals involving voluntary possession by the demon. Lifting the Lamp tells a terrifying story of such a possession.

Mr Lamp admits that working with demons *can* be effective in the sense that they do have a certain control over material things and therefore can be induced to give the magician money or worldly success, while angels usually don´t care about such things, their goal being to lift up the magician to higher elevations. The problem with the demons is that they are animalistic, threacherous and that there is always a serious price to pay. Also, the demons somehow use the power of the magician to lift *themselves* up from the demonic to the material, with detrimental effects for the latter. 

More info is promised on the content-creator´s Odysee channel, but I haven´t seen anything there...yet.
