==Notes==

It is important to note that the old world is not a "natural" world in the sense that it is outcome of natural selection or cosmic prerogative. Rather, the old world (like all worlds) is a designed world. It is the result of a conscious application of creative principles and techniques developed, arrayed, and aligned for specific purposes. In the case of the Old World, that purpose is aggrandizement of a few, and global enslavement for the rest.

<blockquote class="definition">'''Ego Inflation''' is the over-inflation of the [[Bodily Ego]] that occurs when a damaged [[Bodily Ego]] with unmet love and self-esteem needs make a strong [[connection]]. An individual who experiences ego inflation comes to believe they are "special" or "chosen" in a way that elevates them to special status. Ego inflation is represented by unwarranted beliefs in one's intellectual, emotional, evolutionary, or spiritual superiority.

When speaking about the significance and reality of mental influence over a distance, one researcher, Jule Eisenbud, U.S. psychiatrist, noted that his success at the experiments has "triggered infantile desires for power, for omnipotence, for control over others..." <ref>Vasiliev, L.L.

Aleister Crowley is a classic example of ego inflation, which moved him from reasonable interpretations of spirituality, connection, one's [[Highest Self]], and so on, to claims made later in life that was a new Messiah spreading a new religion in a new Aeon.<ref>For some discussion of this see Pasi, Marco. “Varieties of Magical Experience: Aleister Crowley’s Views on Occult Practice.” In Aleister Crowley and Western Esotericism, edited by Henrik Bogdan and Martin P.
