what the... why did it just keep the quote and not post my actual response? [confused] In fact, I only used the quote tags and copy and paste for what I wanted to reply to for my responses! That's just plain weird as it had shown up properly on my computer when I posted last night [confused] Now I have to rewrite everything I had before [bummed]
Anyways, I am curious as to how the void differs from before the First Moment (which I have called the Initial Action before) to how it is perceived now as I have some experience with it (though I haven't yet gone back to the first moment myself) and I do agree, it shouldn't be compared to cartoons... or even contemplated lightly. The unprepared mind will have a bad time if confronted with it, to put it lightly.
My mind contains all of time and space. So everything really is within reach.
That's why Remote Viewing works.
Frankly put, I can bull on this. The mind cannot take the entirety of space and time. In fact, the average mind can only store approximately 400 years of experience and memories, some more, some less. And if you think being more magickally inclined expands on this, I would say you are wrong. It would actually fill it faster, atleast in terms of physical storage within your brain. Etherically, it can only hold what you yourself experience as an impression, so while the potential is theoretically limitless in that regard, it is based off of what you yourself experience.
However, to contain all of time and space would mean you have every possible moment in your mind, every possible variance and instance, every alternative for every action, every event. Every timeline, every facet of every possibility in the multiverse. Every possible life and every possible path every possible life can take in all of this, as well as every thought they have. I could go on, but I'm sure you can see the point
Anyways, one thing (and this is the part that I am most perturbed about losing as I don't want to reexplain this) is that Space and time, while having a symbiotic, or rather relational relationship (odd phrasing, but it's about the best I can think of right now) with eachother, they are distinct concepts within themselves. This is seen with it taking different times to travel same distances, or the fact that you can stand still in one place and let time just move forwards. This allows you to remain where you are and see through time, forwards, backwards and even laterally while staying in one place and not having to traverse the distance with traversing the time. It also allows the traverse of distance near instantly (psychically).

I'm trying to become an immortal magick user.
To do that I need to transform my body into beautiful.
So to do that I need to be better at math which means I need more available syntax[complex terminology and usage of language]. Wordmath.
Because existence is a paradox, magickalmath is unstuck[it can be put between any other magickequation while simultaneously being on the other side of the equation]. Stacking magickmath is what I'm learning now.
The only thing simple is because existence is predestine I will always be presented with the relevent thing or spell I need to learn next.
Umm... I am guessing you mean
physical immortality? While there are many theories as to how to accomplish this, there is no one (that is known nor confirmed) to have bypassed the main issue of the body breaking down on a cellular level. However, even if you do manage to bypass this issue, you'd have to then contend with either your neurons shutting down as you get older, or your head filling up with too many neural pathways and synapses causing an overload. Beyond all of this, you must find a way to allow your body to evolve and adapt to new environments and keep up with the human race's evolution, let alone find a way to replace lost limbs and fix severe injuries. Plus, there is soul weariness to take into account, and perceptive time. Very, very few people would be suited to being immortal without going insane or stagnant. Quite frankly, there are so many variables that have to be taken into account that I doubt that anyone can think of them all.
I'm confused to what you mean by "magick math"... is this the "equations" used for determining magickal components and instances and their various effects and variables in order for spells to work, much like how astrophysicists use mathematical equations to explain the phenomena in the universe?
Also, existence is not predestined. To believe that is to believe there is no free will, no choice in anything. To keep the mindset that everything is predestined, that things will just fall into your lap because it is "destined to be", is actually a hindering mindset, and a stupidly dangerous one to hold onto. As it was said before by Shinichi, you have to empty that cup of yours first.\
You seem to have some very contradictory views on existence here RaineAshford, first existence is a concept that can be edited via magick, next it is a predestined fact... you can't have it both ways. Existence isn't something to be edited via magick, magick instead elicits change by manipulating a set of parameters allowed in that aspect of existence, following specific rules and laws that exist along side of the understood ones of science and physics.
Neither is it all predestined. The mere fact that you have choices and must learn things is evidence of it. If it was all predestined, then you would have all the knowledge you will ever obtain automatically at a certain point no matter where you are or what you are doing. Instead, you have to search and find it, you have to work things out for yourself, you have to experiment and see what works, what doesn't, and simply just see what something does. You would simply do things like an automation, you wouldn't question because there would be no point of questioning as there would be no free will!
While there are certain... aspects and events that I believe are focal points destined to happen
in some way, this would not take away from free will as the choices made can change the how and the where and when of this focal point from taking place.
