Master Shadow Kilo's Index and Explanation

[Lord Alucard Ere Casanova]

This thread is the index of all my lessons and a summarized explanation of the topics. As I post them I will post links here so that no matter what order the threads get in you will be able to use this index to navigate through the lessons in the order intended. In this way we may refrain from students* jumping to far ahead or falling to far behind. This way we may also refrain from having lessons lost or buried by newer threads posted over time. Each lesson listed is made into a link, for example if you click on "Lesson One: Light Meditation" you will be taken to the first lesson posted on the topic of meditation which happens to be how to do a light meditation. Some of the lessons listed are not links right now, they become links as I post the corresponding lesson.

*Students, for me, include anyone who is willing to read and learn from what I post. I do not require anyone contact me or request permission to learn, any information I post is free for anyone. There are some things I know of that I will not be posting publically, this is either because the information is to easily used incorrectly or it could be because I doubt the quality of my knowledge.

~Summarized Explanation~

This explanation is posted here because it does not refer to just one of my lessons, but to all of them. Any and all information I share is based on a number of things and sources may not always be provided. The sources, in short, include my own personal experience, the teachings of others, personal theories, the theories of others, and other people's sites. Whenever another site is used I will do my best to provide a link, I am strongly against plagiarism.

All information is based on my own beliefs. It is not strictly "Wicca," although some information may be very similar, nor is it "Paganism," although again some information may be considered similar. The religions I teach about will be taught to the best of my own understanding and limited to my own beliefs, I am sharing with you what I believe and not something I want everyone to follow. If you decide to follow any of these religions, please do research elsewhere as well or at least understand that a combination of those religions is what makes my entire belief system.

"Casting a spell," to me, honestly, is nearly pointless. I'll teach about it and explain what I used to do, but the entire point of "magick" is to make your own will become reality. Casting a spell is merely a way to focus your energy into a goal/location, boost your own confidence, or cleanse/block energy according to what you need. When you understand how energy works, you won't need to chant anything or what for the perfect moment. Tools will not be required at all. As explained in my Final Note on the Basics of Spellwork and Rituals, the key to magick is simply to believe.

Once on another site I was attacked for using the word "magick." So I will explain this here, "magick" and "magic" are considered two different things by the majority of the magickal community. "Magic," without the "k," is considered to be the illusions and stage magician's tricks. "Magick" is the act of making your will become reality and, to be a little more specific, to do so via manipulation of energy as opposed to physical activity. This is what was taught by Alleister Crowley, a magician with a high reputation among those I have spoken with, taught, and was taught by. That is why I say "magick" instead of "magic" and they are pronounced the same way.

While I am all for constructive criticism and beneficial replies, I will have any flaming, spamming, or otherwise negative remarks removed. Everything I post is with the intent of helping other people learn, not I nor they need any more negativity than this world already has. For that matter, you don't either.
