SOME BASIC IDEAS FROM "THE ART OF THOUGHT MAGIKS" BY NICOLAS GOLDENBERG. PART 1.
POSSIBLY THE LEAST WRITTEN ABOUT AND MISUNDERSTOOD, BUT PROBABLY THE EASIEST AND MOST EFFECTIVE WAY OF CASTING SPELLS THOUGHT MAGIK MAYBE THE CENTRAL FORCE FROM WHICH ALL OTHER FORMS OF MAGIKS LATER DEVELOPED. NO PROPS CEREMONIES OR FANCY WORDS ARE REQUIRED TO CAST A SPELL, JUST A STRONG WILL, BASIC APTITUDE, AND EXTREME . AT ITS CORE ITS THAT EXTREME CONCENTRATION OF THOUGHTS THAT GIVE THOUGHT MAGIK ITS POWER. ITS BASICS ARE SIMPLE; STRONG THOUGHTS, BUILDING TOWARDS A SINGLE SUBJECT, CONSTANTLY BEING REPEATED SLOWLY GAINING IN POWER, TILL THEY BECOME STRONG ENOUGH TO EXIST BY THEMSELVES. THEN THEY CAN BE RELEASED, TO BECOME A FULLY FORMED SPELL, SOMETHING POWERFUL ENOUGH TO LEAVE THE BODY TO JOIN THE GREAT ENERGY FIELD THAT MAKES UP THE UNIVERSE. IF DONE PROPERLY THE CONCENTRATED THOUGHTS REACH OUT TO ACHIEVE ITS PURPOSE.
ONE MUST BE CAREFUL WHEN USING THOUGHT MAGIC THAT THEY HAVE PERFECT CONTROL OVER THE SPELL. IF NOT THE SPELL, MIGHT NOT HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO SURVIVE THE RELEASE, OR WORSE MIGHT BREAK FREE OF YOUR CONTROL AND BECOME A TULPA. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO REMEMBER IS THAT YOU ARE THE ONE WHO GIVES IT BOTH POWER AND PURPOSE, ANY DOUBTS OR FEARS YOU MIGHT HAVE REFLECTS IN THE FINAL OUTCOME.
A TULPA IS A CREATION OF THOUGHT THAT HAS GROWN TOO POWERFUL, AND BROKEN AWAY FROM THEIR CREATOR. IT IS A CREATION OF ONE OR MORE PEOPLE, THAT TAKES FORM, AND ONCE IT HAS OBTAINED ENOUGH POWER FORMS A INDIVIDUAL EXISTENCE. IT IS CHRONICLED BEST IN THE CLASSIC BOOK "MAGIC AND MYSTERY IN TIBET". IT HELPS EXPLAIN THE EXISTENCE OF GHOSTS, SPIRITS, ETC... ACCORDING TO THIS THEORY ALL CREATURES LIKE THAT ARE A CREATION, CAUSED EITHER WILLINGLY OR NOT. ACCORDING TO THOUGHT MAGIC IF ENOUGH PEOPLE USE ENOUGH ENERGY IN TRYING TO SUMMON A SPIRIT THEY MAY ACCIDENTALLY CREATE IT.
