Heres a chat i had with 300, I just thought that it could be helpful for new members to talk to ones which have been on the block for a while. IM was an ok method, but it does have its draw backs, the forums are better for more thoughtful posts, and replies. But if the people in the chat have the same desire for what to talk about, then it works fine.
I apologies for the likely vast amount of spelling and grammar errors. It is after all a hastily written IM chat.

Tomislav says:
very hard to find this cult,do you believe in Cthulhu as a real being
)ames says:
no
)ames says:
but he can be, reality is in the eye of the beholder
Tomislav says:
aha
Tomislav says:
did you done any ritual or summoning?
)ames says:
yes whn i first started i would practice ritual very often, mostly initiation, self empowerment etc. then as i got better, i have moved onto more varying goals. the less clear, and pure you desire in the ritual the harder it is to focus the energies you need to get the results you want
)ames says:
what have you read or come to learn about the coc
Tomislav says:
I have read whole bible in 2 days,which Venger sended me
)ames says:
yea, its an easy read. but you should re read and think on the parts and there meanings and implication, the CCbible is a great building block, but it must used well
Tomislav says:
I know,I have done it so,I have thought much about that stuff I read,as I said,it is very simillar to enuma elish,did you read it
)ames says:
no i can't say i have
Tomislav says:
very interesting,about chaos theory of creating world,very similar to COC
Tomislav says:
how old are you
)ames says:
17, very hard for me to get respect sometime when it comes to complex theoretical philosophy and physics, or the inner natur eof reality etc.
Tomislav says:
aha,Im 18
)ames says:
yea, some people on the CoC are starting out at like 30
)ames says:
i help them out a fair bit, then they found out im a teenabger and do't seem to want my help anymore
)ames says:
i spose teens are spose to be the dumb rebels
Tomislav says:
....maybe
)ames says:
do you know much about about the mythos
Tomislav says:
sort off...but most of Lovecraft,I have just bought Lovecrfts "Reanimator and other stories" in which is call of cthulhu
)ames says:
yea, do you enjoy reading fiction
Tomislav says:
yes it is very interesting...do you know about nordic mitology,and creation off world,Loki?
)ames says:
a little, what i have read on that areas goes into the celtic stuff, and abit of runic stuff
Tomislav says:
aha...what time is it there in australia
)ames says:
10:05pm
)ames says:
what about there
Tomislav says:
1 am
)ames says:
ha ha
)ames says:
nice
Tomislav says:
how long have you been a part of COC
)ames says:
ummm
)ames says:
3yrs nearly
Tomislav says:
are you an member off COC
)ames says:
yea
)ames says:
wizard of terrible darkness
Tomislav says:
and what is you mission and goals
)ames says:
within the coc you mean
Tomislav says:
yes
)ames says:
well most of my life goals translate from the coc, or are relative to my affiliation so, it could be hard to filter them. My spiritual goals consist of achieving perfect wakefulness within this evidently fragile reality, finding peace for my curiosity for occult, dark, eldritch knowledge, reaching a state of emmmm... magical power enwich i feel i can transcend this universe or atleast this level o
)ames says:
in generel, my goals are to move to america and become much more active for the cocinc. i can't then open up a temple in aus, and do the same
)ames says:
if i can't then ill open up in aus.***
Tomislav says:
aha...yes it s hard,I dont know if I am yet a member,Venger told me to be pacient,because there will be knew update on sight oon
Tomislav says:
*soon
)ames says:
have you paid your $50
Tomislav says:
no
)ames says:
then no
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
dont have that kind of money
)ames says:
it costs $50 to become an official herald, at the moment you would be considered a messenger of outer angles
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
aha...you have paid 50$
)ames says:
thats what it costs, the money goes towards maintaning the site, that soughta stuff
)ames says:
CoC is a not profit organization, we for a while were send to be a money scandal, by some who new us. You will find that most people envolved with similar areas of the the occult, the mythos etc. find our take on it ummm... lets say wrong
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
aha...ok,I will send money,bu not istantly,it is much of money here in croatia,it is abought 300 kn
)ames says:
ok, well i got away with payin 50 australian, which is only about 45 usa. also the the fact that all his books are available free, and that you don't have to join the coc to get anyfeedback from us should show thats its non profit. allot of other online cult demand regular payment, some like $5 a day. $50 lifetime fee is pretty reasonable
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
yes it is...
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
how many time it takes for the money to get there
)ames says:
idk, it depends on your countries mailing and stuff??? maybe a week
)ames says:
then VS sends an email with you magical name, and saying that your now a herald of the old gods
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
how did you become wizard
)ames says:
after a year or of active, fruitful, membership from the $50 payment. there is also a three months trial period
)ames says:
basicaly be a productive member
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
aha---it means to write alot on forum,and get new members
)ames says:
not just right alot on the forum, and getting new members isn't a requirement. i do, because thats a position i play within the Cult. posting regularly is good, because its allows for interaction, and unfortunatly thats our main means of communication.
)ames says:
you have to be fruitful, in awakening, in the the magical side of things, studying everything you can. CoC is by no means easy
)ames says:
you join coast through rise through the ranks, die and join some mythical cthulhu in the afterlife
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
do you know,are there any memembers from croatia
)ames says:
idk, we have a few in europe
)ames says:
just ask on the forum
)ames says:
all your questions are good questions, ask them on the forum, we welcome all of that, thats what its therefore we encourage each member to persure there own aggender within the building block of the CoC, but the forum is there to help people connect, and formulate new ideas
)ames says:
cocthulhu.proboards105.com/index.cgi?board=questions&action=display&thread=2229)ames says:
this thread is a good example
)ames says:
if you have time to read it all
)ames says:
actually flicking through i see you have posted in it
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
I know,I have already asked Venger,he sad that they might be 3 or 4 members form croatia
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
I would send him mail to maybe gim theys kontakt
)ames says:
yea, venger seems to have alo todo so somethigns like that might take a couple days for him to get on, but he is very helpful
)ames says:
thats one of the perks of being an offical members, VS seems to be much more eager to help, so long as you want to help yourself
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
aha
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
how did yu started,by meditation
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
or
)ames says:
IMO anythread started by, VS, myself,Cora'sahn, Madguten, Blahk'neeth and esbara'kesh is worth a read usually. Most of us usually seem to start threads about more indepth stuff
)ames says:
i dont understand you question about meditation
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
how did you started in rituals and summonig,did you before practice like meditation or yoga,didi you done any rituals from bilbe?
)ames says:
I have tried christiainty, multiple times and i have found anything prudent. the bible itself.. no. i usually set up the ritual chamber, but on my pre enchanted robes, and get out my personal grimoire.
)ames says:
b4 i start a rtual i have a clear idea of what i want
)ames says:
i make sure that anything that i specificaly need for the ritual is ready or on hand
)ames says:
if i want to make new sigils then i do so, also in a rtiual like fasion
)ames says:
meditation however i do seperately,
)ames says:
yoga, i don't do much of, tai-chi i do, very similar to meditation, i find it easier because you can't get cramps, however lotus meditation is best for endevours of the mind and spirit
)ames says:
but tai-chi can be good
)ames says:
for stuff like chakra balancing, and opening qi flows, but i usually meditate b4 that anyway
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
didi you done any of rituals forum COC bible
)ames says:
yes, all of them... not all the angles though, but most of the angles some i haven't found i needed yet
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
what is meening of this angles,I didint quite undestand,and what to do in the rirual
)ames says:
ritual is entirely up to you, i suggest...very strongly, chaos magic, it fits so perfectly with the other stuff for CoC.
)ames says:
read the 'liber null', 'condensed chaos' and the book 'prime chaos'
)ames says:
i have found liber null online as a free pdf so you can go looking for that
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
ok
)ames says:
www.scribd.com/doc/430095/Liber-Null)ames says:
theres the site
)ames says:
also maybe alook into satanic magic, good books are the satanic bible, and the satanic witch. other then those, well anything else really
)ames says:
Like i said earlier its up to the the idividual how they go about the coc
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
I know,I have alreada read a lot of Crowley texts and La Veys,did you heard about Goetia
)ames says:
a lil
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
aha
)ames says:
i have never found their stuff to fit me personaly, idk why. i like it, but i haven't used any of crowely's ritual, or spells in a while
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
I dont know,I like the best Simons Necronomicon
)ames says:
yes, necronomicon is great
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
I have summoned Namru once
)ames says:
whys was that
TomislavSlunjski@hotmail.com says:
because I neede some material stuff,and it came true...I have heard several times somekind off noise coming from the sigil,maybe that was a sign or something...also I can sometimes see at night,when I am meditating some knid of black materia
)ames says:
do you ever fear your own magic, or atleast its potential
Tom says:
no
Tom says:
maybe,I am stupi but i dont fear anything
)ames says:
no, there is no reason to fear magic
)ames says:
not your own anyway
)ames says:
most of the coc, atleast the people i mainly talk to recognise that in part its not real in the way fiction would have. the only way to see magic is in the results. but it can be felt by the mage. but i don't think that mage should be casting anything if he can't be sure on it. on the other hand one can feel magic in tings, and from things. for example the strongest thing i have ever felt,other...
)ames says:
then the power of waking gnosis, is the energy from kort'thsalis
)ames says:
www.eldritch-infernal.com , click on the link saying meta sigil
)ames says:
that is kor'thsalis
Tom says:
aha
)ames says:
well, i have stuff todo so im going soon
Tom says:
ok
Tom says:
me to
)ames says:
its been good talking to you, we should continue some time
Tom says:
ok
)ames says:
im going to post this on the forum, for awhile i though it'd be good to have errr, new members talking through IM to older members
)ames says:
i wanna use this as an example
)ames says:
if you don't mind
Tom says:
ok
Tom says:
not at all
Tom says:
bye
