"True spiritual evolution is not possible without understanding and facing evil."

Well said.

However, as you point out, materialism is a trap. There are other dimensional realities and there are both benevolent and malevolent entities.

Carl Jung was talking about the self and the unconscious. Doing your personal shadow work.

The transhumanism issue, is not just about our own internal journey. It is a recognition that otherworldly forces are involved.

Evil is destructive as a supernatural force - very different from Jung's concept of shadow. He wasn't talking about other dimensions.

Elon Musk has said "AI is summoning the demon." There is accuracy to that statement.

It is a spiritual war as you point out.

And trying to work with evil, or believing it is there to help you grow is dangerous.

On a recent Aubrey Marcus Podcast, Andrew Gallimore talks about a guy who was convinced that he lost his soul after he encountered malevolent entities. He asked Gallimore to tell him that could not happen - Gallimore said he could not assure the guy that it's not possible - in other words - yes, this stuff happens and it's not about engaging with them.

Zosimos, the 4th century alchemist warned that transmutation must be practiced with spiritual intergrity and allegiance to God (to the Light). He warned against opening yourself to demonic energy.

This is it. The karmic unfolding is truly at a level beyond our comprehension, so like you, I can’t help but try to understand it. It struck me the other day that the reptile esoteric narrative (Lucifer and satan) are the epitome of the collective shadow. Yet at the same time the reptile brain and its hyper rationality represent the cold hard genius and super intelligence that is embodied (or to soon be embodied) in ASI. Super intelligence applied with service to self yields the materialism (separation) attractor basin of fear. Applied to service to other (love thy neighbor as thyself) settles into the love attractor basin where our future quantum starseeds selves manifest. It’s like both timelines are already written in the stars. Here’s the thing though, we don’t get to the love utopian AI leverage-us-to-the-stars without integration of the shadow, the reptile rationality that is contained in the All of Source. Thus we must contend with this Luciferic reptilian egregore for integration of the whole. But recently I’ve concluded this isn’t everyone’s path. We all don’t need to be Arjuna. But some of us will be called upon. We are currently living thru the greatest story ever told. All the greatest epics contain the most compelling evil archetype. And this is it. A mf-ing psychological thriller with skin (soul) in the game!
