Darkness practices on youtube?

Darkroom Practice u/AllThingsFTW 2022-06-26 14:30 UTC 20 points

Hello all, I am making a video about moving the assemblage point for my youtube channel "All Things Perceptual". I would like to introduce the darkness practices to my viewers as part of the video (with your blessing). I have a lot of curious viewers who could benefit from the excellent methods that you all have developed here, and well, some people just don't go to reddit, but I feel like they are missing out. I know you don't need a lot of idiots in here wasting your time, so I don't have to mention that the practices came from reddit. But if I could just present the basic idea on my channel, it would be appreciated. If you don't want that, then I will feature something else in the video. Thank you for your consideration. - Henry

I imagine having a YouTube channel gives you a front row seat to the differing varieties of idiots in the world 😏.

Even more than stumble thru here, on occasion, I'd suspect (^cough YouTube comments ^cough ).

Yeah youtube is filled with trolls. Lucky for me, not too many are attracted to my channel. 😁

Mentioning this subreddit in the video description could actually help, both you and the cause, as it were.

If I were given permission to mention this subreddit, I would only want share it with serious practitioners. But that's up to the moderators as I respect your wishes absolutely

It would be far better that anything you make points people here if they want to go further with it, than to strand them in limbo, with no knowledge of where to go from there.

Hey thanks. Been busy with a nasty petty Tyrant so, haven't made many videos lately. Working on some ideas now.

@AllthingsFTW … when you mention ‘my viewers’ are they like your customers?

u/AllThingsFTW 2 points 2022-06-27 01:04

No, I don't sell them anything. It's kind of like a community, like here but a little less personal interaction

OP seems to not be a 'total' shitbag

u/AllThingsFTW 2 points 2022-06-27 03:21

I am missing the context of your comment. I can't seem to work out what OP means...

u/lurklops 3 points 2022-06-27 03:32

OP = Original poster.. comment meant I didn't get a shitty impression off you

r/castaneda

The Sorcery Lineage of Don Juan Matus & Carlos Castaneda

The purpose of this subreddit is to aid in the pragmatic application of the works of Carlos Castaneda, Florinda Donner, Taisha Abelar, & Carol Tiggs to how we experience existence. Core topics include: sorcery (a.k.a. the mastery of intent), awareness, & non-ordinary reality (magic). Here, you can: learn ABOUT sorcery, what has and has not worked over thousands of years, decide to empirically embark on your own "definitive journey," and altruistically document your challenges and discoveries.

r/castaneda Rules

Accounts newer than 10 days old cannot comment, and must reach 21 days before posting is allowed.

4 commenting upvotes (in any subreddit) are also required in order to post after those 21 days.
Do your best to tag new posts with a relevant Flair category. Otherwise, select General Knowledge.
Please be familiar with the terminology used in here before posting. See the Wiki's Terminology page

Astral Projection is the most problematic term, along with OBE. Please use Dreaming Double, or Dreaming Body instead.
Any post that diverts away from the implied purpose of this sub, will be marked SPOILER or removed.

The stated purpose of this subreddit is to aid in restoring the reputation of Carlos Castaneda and the knowledge he imparted, by pragmatically applying that knowledge IN PRACTICE. This means that we are sticking to what really works, as proven by direct experience by long-practicing members.
No low effort posting, pretending, or wasting people's time.

Especially problematic posts, ex. questions that could be answered by either practicing or by reading more posts or from the books, will be removed and users who make similar repeated posts will be banned for a minimum of 3 months. Pretend sorcery which does not emphasize silence, and is based only on thinking and mood, will not be tolerated.
Self-centered promotion, jockeying for a "top-dog" position, & grandstanding are bannable behaviors.

Persons promoting behavior over effort to get silent and the necessity to move the assemblage point, and who won't give up that activity, are likely to be banned for a minimum of ONE YEAR.
Those being overly disruptive will be temporarily or permanently banned, at the mods discretion.

This is a blanket rule, meant to give mods a more broadly applicable option for a ban or content removal. Banned users still have access to the subreddit, wiki, and all its resources (except the group chat).
Please report content in violation of any of this subreddit's rules to the mods to be evaluated.

This will make it publicly unviewable until it can be assessed.
