witchcraft?
« on: November 14, 2009, 02:51:44 PM »
What do you think about witchcraft. It can turn you into a psychic or merely a spiritualist? I think if you maintain a proper balance in this practice, it can turn you into a  true spiritualist while an extreme results in psychic behavior.

I think that the concept of witchcraft is normally treated as a cultural ideology, a means of explaining human misfortune by blaming it either on a supernatural entity or a known person in the community. The behaviour depends on that only.

I think that witchcraft is probably a good stepping stone to learning more about magic. I think I've read that the art of witchcraft is like a lower level on the ladder of knowing spiritual and mystical things. But I imagine the average witch is probably eons above your average person is understanding a little bit about the way things work.

I think unexplainable power of the mind/nature or unexplainable misfortunes and occurrences are coined as witchcraft even in the old era or old times. It involves rituals and uttered words and even some potion making as it is usually shown in the movies and explained by those who claims to be practicing it.

I feel personally that witchcraft should not lead to spirituality but the other way around. Christianity, Judaism, Paganism, and lots of other religions have a form of "witchcraft". Witchcraft, mysticism, and many other terms that explain the same types of practices normally come through the study of a spiritual path. I do not really like the idea that someone who is not spiritual can study these practices.

Yes i think some things or happenings that can not be explained fully are called differently such as miracles, mystery or even witchcraft. Religious beliefs could affect how people will see or call an unexplainable things.

For me witchcraft is a kind of activity were dark forces ride so people can see how powerful it is. It is a super natural power in the sense that spirits is involve in ritual. I personally know someone who practice such things and I saw things moving, etc. It is a common practice here in some part of my country in the past few years and many people believed on it. But lately, people were influenced by technology and slowly disregarded the witchcraft things. For me, it is not good as I read in the Bible that God condemn such kind of works because it belongs to the dark forces and evil.
