Greetings to All

Greeting to All,

Just joining the forum and want to say hello. I am impressed with the way that everyone gets along without all the pushing of ego into the topics such as I have found in the Church of Satan forum (which I am not a member of) and also the hen peck order of the Temple of Set (not a member) and also the Temple of the Vampire (I formerly spent 5 years there as an adept). The last I found to be such as its description here. A self serving entity. The Temple grew from an order of education into one of cultism and control which is now laughable. I resigned and then was offered to allow me membership in any form I choose but then was kicked out.

So you can see why I say the lack of ego I find on this board is very refreshing and unlike that ot the TOV.

I am a seeker. One that will search for the truth of things all my life. I hope you are the same.

Notice to all. I do not put faith in Macho manners. The deadliest assassin is one that you least expect. Hence, big and pushy mean nothing to me even tho I am that appearance. The midget with a five shot .25 magnum is the deadliest attack weapon in bringing down the muscle man. Also the female. What I am saying is that things are not really what they seem to be. Hence, I am searching.

I greet all of you as my dear friends, even the one here I know to be undercover. All things will seek its on level.

I am open to any and all questions at any time and I hope all of you feel the same.

Again, thanks for a refreshing forum. May we all find what we truly seek.

Sincerely,

Maxx

Hello Maxx and welcome to this small but friendly community.
I hope that you can find here a nice place for debate, exchange of opinions and experiences.
We are all here to learn more and to grow, spiritually. We all seek knowledge, truth, and none of us claims to be the definitive expert in any subject. For the newbies can teach us many things, unexpectedly.

Looking forward to hear more from you. See you in the threads.

Em hotep Maxx,
This forum is unlike any other Occult forum, we are genuinely nice to one another, LOL. Siriusly, we are all here to study and discuss Asetianism and vampirism (other things related of course too).
I am aware of all three of the groups you have mentioned and we would rather there was no 'bashing' of other Orders and Groups while here (I think I can speak for my fellow Asetianists). So, be welcome, learn, teach us and Erta Na Hekau Apen Ast (May I / you be given the words of power of Aset)

Welcome to the forum.

I know exactly what you mean about some other vampiric places, as the ones you mentioned, being related with some of them along my path as well. Many online communities, especially when based around forums, tend to be overwhelmed by worship of the ego, and in some other cases, by mere fiction and role-play. It is highly motivating the fresh air I found in this place, where I could sense the intentions of truth and the seeking of that truth from its users, along with a general mature mentality. That was what brought me to register in the first place, given fact that on the first days after finding this place on Google, I spent them only reading and wondering if this would be worthy of giving it a shot. But as of yet, I am pleased...

I am thankful this place exists. And even though recent, I can tell it will prosper.

I was, however, intrigued by one of your comments on your presentation post. Who is the one here to be undercover? And undercover from what? I would appreciate some enlightening on this.

You are speaking of undercover. Not a big issue. The TOV has a project of sending out members to join and monitor all Vampire groups to blend in and then inject into the conversations things that would make them look good and to turn around any mention of them in a bad light. Designed to send new members into the group to ask questions and join their group. It became so much of a project that they could not keep a cap on it all. Too many people out there have found out the real operation. Actually, they have turned comical in their attempt to control even conversations on their own board. Anything said in a bad light is instantly taken off. You cannot have an open discussion about anything there any more as it is all slanted. A bad and closed situation now exists within that temple and it seems that it changed overnight for some reason. That board has become stagnant and has no education any more. Run like the Gestapo when the gang of ten, I call them, took over. Obsessed with power, this gang moniters the board while one individual and his son takes in the money each month as the method mentioned elsewhere on this board is correct.

But I can tell you that the kind of operation they send out will not work here because there is no reason to converse about them here. Seems like you are on a path to learn and discover and that will overcome all the negative aspects of their movement.

Actually, the dual member here may well be overcome with the sincere attitude here in seeking truth and be able to see the vast difference between these groups. That should be easy enough.

Hope I answered your question to satisfaction.

Sincerely,

Maxx

Em Hotep and be welcome here, Maxx.

I do indeed know of the situation of being corrupted with power and misguided. I've seen it happen to many people before.

I really enjoy this forum, being a new person to Vampirism/Asetianism/Ocultism I've learned quite alot here in my short time of being here. I also really enjoy the atmosphere.

I hope you can enjoy this forum as much as I do.

Blessed be,
Helliana

Welcome Maxx, glad to see more people from the US to join us, since the vast majority around is still from Europe I believe.

This undercover that you talk about, you seem to believe he is among us. If that's the case, can you give me more clues about who he is? I keep thinking and reading the posts around but I don't get it. Sorry.

Jonathan

As I stated, this issue is not a problem for this site.

Actually, forgive me for even a mention of it. The ones here connected are not even members of the OOPs that are directed to branch out into other sites. OOPs members are the overseers of that site and none show up here. Not to even be concerned about it.

Sincerely,

Maxx
