Why do people who possess "esoteric" knowledge not use it in any meaningful way? - Why do they spent their time posting on obscure websites instead of getting a job in the field they're interest in?

Do you mean like Zohar/Kabbalah/similar topics? I'd be interested having that info shared if I do make a general esotericism thread for both academic and schizo shit as @AMHOLIO suggested.

Hey if you get the paperwork done for it we can sell the Kabbalah jew-jeet soul manifesto part of my Jeet after Man series.

It will involve plenty of Metzitzah B'peh and Visnhu, aligning the chakras with YWH for a quantum dark matter singularity of brimstone that killed the 'Arty.

People who claim to have hidden or esoteric knowledge are just trying to sell you something or grift. Once you understand this, you will see the pattern every time someone pops up with “one weird trick to [insert subject here]!”

I promise it will be funny. It maybe the dumbest "booklet" you will ever read, but it will be funny.

The story is in my head, with the main beats ironed out. Lots of spoilers and twists so I don't want to skizo the spoiler millenial twists out.

The story starts with a deep Kibbutz doomsday bunker built by an eccentric jewish billionaire under the Himalayan range, an AI called Zrok, and WW3 starting in the 2500s.

All tomorrows, Man after Man, a pinch of Fallout, and a lot of Codex Pajeet and Scrotie McBoogerballs. Maybe it should inspire Bibi to think smart and all that artsy self bloviating bs, change the world etc etc, but nah if I get a few laughs out of a few chuds on the net it will be worth it.

I am just stuck a bit on how the geology changes in the next billion years and how it would effect the future creature's evolution, empires, and so on. The metaphysical 2nd half will need the protagonist, a rabbee of the Chosen species, to be separated from his jeet slave train in a land where he can wander alone.

Looks like it will be 250 million years and Pangea Ultima, too hot for mammals. Looks like my work got 50% smaller.

The Upanishads mention that those nearing enlightenment/ Moksha do receive magical powers, but it is conveniently considered a folly to actually utilize them as it will hinder your growth.

You are gifted magical powers you aren't supposed to use as a sort of shit test by Atman.

Of course, these are magical powers in a layman's sense. Lots of esoteric cults view "magic" from a "whatever works" perspective, so it's mostly techniques to lie and manipulate people, including yourself into doing what you want, no different from secular self-help and "how to make friends and influence people" slop.

>Be esoteric

>Esotericism teaches one to transcend this world to achieve enlightenment

>Includes transcending money and social connections, for mental and spiritual enrichment

>Why are they all broke NEETs?

Gee, I wonder. Sounds like they're doing exactly what they were taught. Oh well, you can't tell anyone how to live their life.

>Esotericism teaches one to transcend this world to achieve enlightenment

I mean, that sort of teaching is more on the exoteric side of things, esoteric / tantric traditions is stuff more akin to "it is permissible to murder a mixed race person for the purpose of meditation upon their corpse, in order to blur the line between what is filthy and what is pure, in this way you transcend Maya and come to understand the oneness of all things."

The Western esoteric secret societies of the past ( with some vestiges left now) largely had a humanist doctrine where the rich / elite sought to legitimize their place in society absent coherent aristocracy by making themselves self justified as Gods... Lots of these were just good old boys clubs though with maybe the occasional orgy. Epstein Island type stuff.

They aint got shit. Their autistic obsession with Jewish texts, weirdly enough, is not applicable to the real world. No, retard, Superman's fucking letter on his fucking spandex is not a Jewish letter, nor would it matter if it does, ever heard of a fucking coincidence(that's a real schitzo post I saw on Twitter one time)? This is a greater phenomenon, noticing things that just dont really matter. It's right wing midwittery. Instead of le heckin science, it's le heckin Kaballah. Great intelletual evolution, guys. Keep up the good work.

Monetizing conspiracy theories is certaintly possible and there are plenty of youtube channels doing it. These channels never get big because the main weakness of conspiracy theories is that any sufficiently motiviated midwit is able to tear apart the basic assumptions that hold most conspiracy theories together. Well-researched conspiracy theories seem to be extremely rare and pretty much impossible to find in the sea of incoherent rambling and chuds enlightened by their own intelligence (they figured out that typing "gas the jews" upsets some people). So the audience is quite limited.
