What is baffling is that his exposure is only the quotes in my signature. A lot of inferred rationalizing, zero context.

 

I could quote a line out of context referencing the AMA summoning a demon in the Illuminatus trilogy and someone might use that to justify their belief RAW was a demon summoning Satanist.

what book would you recommend from Robert Anton Wilson? i am interested in reading some of his books

@Kojiro Prometheus Risin Illuminatus! and Quantum Psychology are good starting points for RAW

I told this to a Christian Gnostic. He told med "Do what you should"

Do what thou wilt doesn't mean do as you like, it means do that which is in your will to do. I think deeper than that it refers to a rite magicians take when they declare their will to the universe

My own view is that multiple wills exist in the human format.  For example, many have difficulty stopping eating a favorite food.

 

Others are greedy for power.

 

At a more abstract level, it is useful to distinguish the personal will from the transpersonal will

I don't think this is a good example of will, that is more an example of lack of will.

So what is the nature of the urge to keep eating well beyond necessity?
