/lit/ - Literature

i absolutely despise my own being and contemplate the option of suicide on a daily basis, yet i have good friends that hold me in very high regard and even referred to me as their hero, as cheesy as that might sound. it's such a strange thing to experience, they don't know how weak i really am, which is a blessing that i do appreciate as well as appreciating their overwhelming love, but it's certainly awkward. i try (hopefully) to give them something useful and truly good because its what they genuinely deserve, but i am terrified of letting them down once they know what i'm really like someday. girlfriend gave up on me once she got tired of my pathetic shit.
im rotten.

But it's already I'm English??

Hello. I've read Evola's Introduction to Magic and I have some questions to the knowledgeable related to the practices of the book.

Why does Evola speak of "eyes of the heart" and why do we also refer to the ajna chakra as "third eye"? Are we supposed, during the practice, to visualize like if our vision was in the places of the chakras instead of being in the normal eyes?

>The historical context made it to where Sassanids couldn't win at that time.
What do you mean by this? it sounds interesting Also genuinely not trying to be mean but it sounds like a cope since the religion died out despite it being 'better'. Maybe I am totally wrong and you are right though. Can you explain further about the historical factors?

I wish i had the supernatural power of materializing every e-book i've downloaded over the years and build a nice physical library out of them.

Is it a cowardly thing to want to retreat from the world as a young person instead of actively partaking in it by doing your best to fight for what you believe is right, and daring to go through trial and error ? Basically preferring raw experiences to living a more observationist lifestyle. Any particular books that deal with this topic ?

psssh.... yeah... i only read non-fiction....... fiction.... is.. for.... babies..... i am CLEARLY..... superior intellect.... all these CHILDREN.... and their.... JUNK DATA....

Does anyone have a good resource on how to write fiction? I read, write, and try to think very critically about every decision I make - but I'm curious on the perspectives of other writers (rather than me trying to parse it from their works).

there is no peak, nor is there oblivion.
we adapt and that is all.
if you cannot attract someone in older years, you find other means.
pay a stripper 5$ to shit on your chest, who cares?
if many people are worrying about this, there are equals with you.
just let loose your heterosexual chains :v)

Are there any really good tips on writing fiction besides just practice at it?

How do I turn a two-sentence prompt into an actual story with a plot and characters?

>Pic related its how I see writers.

It’s really fucking good

How do you reconcile being a STEMcuck out of necessity (comp sci - my parents are poor proles) and having a passion for literature and art in general?

So, I’ve started with the Greeks. But I want to understand what I’m reading beyond a superficial level. What books should I read to really grasp the themes?

Who is your favorite Wizard?

There's no way to have knowledge of an external reality. Prove me wrong.
