It's been few years I'm reading stuff , and I sometimes find my self wondering choose of my reading habit between
Reading lists I found over the internet
Or reading based on my own reading list

Is that really matter?
For example :
some books have requirement of reading other sources for better understanding or before going to next book or this thing does not exist at all! Lol
This can be confusing...
Any ideas?

Currently i can't read anything at all due to this situation 😅

maybe consider doing some practical magic?
I really want to do that but never done before or at least I don't know where to start,or even I'm believing in magic or not,
I tried banishing ritual of the pentagram but even I do it wrong, I could not memorize the Hebrew words or lol

I always considered myself :
A musical mystic??
Or finding meaning of life by music?
Mysticism of the music
Salvation thru music?
🤣

I'm with you, I used to do the same, and found two resources of mine drained as I was working full time and had commitments and such.
Now working pt, I have more time but less.money. and gave all my LHP and RHP books away, and was graced with six rhp books given to me by a neighbor.

I honestly recommend the side reading.
This is what I done
I'm going with a reading list since 2019? Maybe and at the same time I do side reading of books i found interesting,
I read everything! LHP or RHP
I found my answers on both or one of them,mostly
My biggest plan is to read the fourm's whole grand library! Hahaha maybe I would found the ultimate realization😅

Read whatever book you picked first, then go read the other resources later and if necessary, go back to the previous book.Makes notes if you feel like it.

This way you won't get stuck "waiting" and also will be able to see a book at two instances(once without the required knowledge and then when you acquired the required knowledge).
It will only work to help you understand better.


I read everything!
Same here.Although I do have my own focus, I like to read a bit of everything in order to expand my understanding of reality and myself.
There isn't "useless knowledge", only knowledge that you don't know how to use(at the moment).

One thing Id like to add, are don't be afraid of generalist books like Secret Teachings of All Ages, nor to read their list. Look into zlibrary, sacred-texts.
Secret teaching is the first book I ever read on this matters!
Manly p hall is my homeboy!,hahaha
I enjoy his writings and I do listen to his audio lectures sometimes...

Nice.
What books have you struggled with?
In terms of Magick, a good generalist book might be Magick in Theory and Practice, and quareia books.

Good for you.
If there are any other books please ask, because you never know when someone might have what you want.
True that. Several things ive uploaded and several I've come across and held back from uploading not sure regarding copyright. A lot of good books in the library.

Even books about History or Philosophy can be helpful if you know where to look at.
Exactly. The Scientists. Mathematics for Non Mathematicians. Holy books of world religions. A book on World Religions. Anthropology is great for our practices, because many of the practices are mirrored in current and or ancient cultures. Even a concordance can be interesting to a non Christian. Dictionary. Encyclopedias. Thesaurus.

My philosophy is , if I ever searched so hard for something hard to find I will share it to avoid the next searcher struggles,
In terms of copyright I can't tell(I don't understand it), there is nothing wrong with helping people of the same interest ,
