DWQA QuestionsCategory: High Level Psychic Attacks, CursesThe questions for this episode are derived from the book, The Black Arts, by Richard Cavendish. He writes, “The driving force behind black magic is hunger for power … Carried to its furthest extremes, the black magician’s ambition is to wield supreme power over the entire universe, to make himself a god.” What is Creator’s perspective?

This is quite telling because it is showing quite clearly that the absolute extension of the power of the "black magician," so-called, is the antithesis of the divine, an opposite energy and intention to have total power for itself, and that implies taking power away from everyone and everything else, the divine included. This is always a slippery slope, to honor the self too greatly compared to others, let alone the divine; it is typically a pitfall of the ego to seek ever-greater power. In actuality, that is a reaction to an inner fear, an inner insecurity that one is somehow vulnerable and lacks something it needs to acquire. That uncertainty, and at times feeling inferior to others who are perceived as having greater power or authority, spurs on the mind of the magician to seek a redress for what is perceived as unfair status. In a loving universe, power and privilege are earned and, in fact, granted to you by others based on your merit, your stature, your degree of divine alignment, and all that entails including morality, ethics, character, and wisdom. It will be true and evident to all that any would-be unitary power will fall short, because the very notion and desire of being an ultimate authority and source of power is a selfish act by a being deeply flawed to not realize their own limits and inadequacies, and therefore not in divine alignment. The desire for power is an impulse arising from a recognition of the self being somehow incomplete and is therefore a diagnostic indicator of a flawed being.
