THE BOOK OF SIN
I. Find your passion. Will is driven by passion; in a word...Its
driven by LOVE. Find what you love the
most, and allow it to compel you forward. We fall in and out of
Love and often. Place yourself in an
environment which teaches you how to Love even if only for a
reason or a season: Master empathy in
favor of apathy. Apathy leads to nothingness, to inactivity, to
death.
II. LIVE. Live each moment. Live it on your terms. Living your
life, on your own terms isn't as easy as it
sounds. It may take work, opposition and being adversary to
anyone and anything that attempts to
break your natural spirit. Enrich your life with Death, to
remind yourself that today could be the day you
die. Live each moment, as if the next will never come. Memento
Mori! Carpe Diem!
III. Remember yourself. Remain aware. Recognize when you are
mechanized, and rage against the
machine. Work at it, and never relent. It is through awareness
that you become. Become something
more, than you are today: Something more than a machine
following your programming. Be the
formless chaos!
IV. Be not the Story. Every person has a story, identifying with
the story makes YOU disappear. Ask
yourself every day: WHO AM I? If you can only express who you
are by your story, you do not exist.
Only your story exists.
V. Strive towards becoming. Contentment leads to stagnation. If
it takes a complete destruction of
your current self to find your way to becoming more:
Self-destruct. Tear yourself down, and build it
again. Be the architect.
VI. Follow not a commanding Master. Be not a slave. Surround
yourself with inspiring people, allow
them to provoke you, challenge you, and become your muses.
Inspiration leads to growth, and
productivity. If you cannot provoke the slave to free himself,
leave him to his service.
VII. Create. Always create. It is through the process of
creation, that you may understand the human
potential, and its divinity. Man creates, not just with his
hands but the landscapes of his mind. The
creation is merely the by-product of creativity. Creativity is
the Will in motion.

VIII. Express. Express yourself in any medium possible, as a
social creature to know a person is to know
the expression. Language is but one avenue to express or lead a
person down a rabbit hole of truth and
lies. To know me, is to know my expressions.
IX. Achieve gnosis. Be in the Know. There is a distinction to be
made between education and learning.
When you are educated, you follow the current of a curriculum.
The knowledge you obtain from
education may become your programming. Learning may force you
against the current, and lead you to
gnosis.
X. Explore. Achieving gnosis, does not mean that you know all
there is to know. Explore by hobby,
connect with diverse minds and create total environments to
foster a change in the lens in which you
view the world. Experiment with method. Be the anthropologist,
the archaeologist, the sociologist,
the mad alchemist and the tomb raider!
XI. Dissolve Borders. Step outside of yourself; put yourself in
the shoes of another. Step outside your
peer group, your community, your country, your continent, and
your time period. You invent your own
prison. Whether that be the borders of a conceived comfort zone,
or the limitations of ideas you will
consider.
XII. Be the Beacon. Be the call to action. Inspire others to
find their passion; to live as if there is no
tomorrow, to remember themselves and be not the story. You may
be the spark that compels them to
strive for more, to shake free of their masters, to create,
express, achieve gnosis, to explore, dissolve
borders and be the beacon themselves.
