LHP overview

We did this in the Luciferian sub-DIR and it worked wonders. Perhaps it deadened it too much... either way, I propose the same thing here. While LHP is not about dogma or anything a logical line must be drawn. We chose to keep the DIR blue for a reason. Now obviously there will be bickering amongst us but it's different than the hardcore purist arguments and especially the outsiders. So why don't we try to get an overview out that works for all of us in the general LHP DIR? If it works out we can get it stickied and hopefully it'll work like it did in the sub-DIR? It'll also help for outsiders looking for a general overview rather than wading through our complex and personal symbolism throughout the threads. We'll run it just like last time.

Anyone interested?

What do you mean this is why we chose to keep the DIR blue? I noticed that but I have no idea what that is supposed to represent.

As for the rest I'm not sure, we work hard to attain and maintain what little knowledge and understanding we possess, why should we just turn it into a hand out for anyone who has the slightest spark of curiosity?

I've personally spent years researching the "LHP", one specific thread will never cover it. Just like you can't learn boxing, tae kwon do, or jiu jitsu over night, you can't develop flow or understand what its like to be water from reading one thread, seeing one perspective. This is what I believe sets us apart from other sections of the forum.

We really are own little family here, I prefer to keep it that way. We are unified through our individuality, and not necessarily our common beliefs, because each and everyone of us has different beliefs that can conflict and mend with others.

Its about being able to inflict a wound on another and know how to treat it. Its like how steel is made.

I think that being blue or whatever the other colour was has had somewhere between zero and virtually no effect. Notice any difference before and after the change?

I really have no idea what such an overview would say. The best I can come up with is to direct someone to the Wikipedia page for it. It's really such a nebulous term because almost every group or individual has a slightly differing perception of what it entails. At times, it seems almost meaningless.

This is kind of my point. With an overview there's a no need to put up with strangers inviting themselves over for dinner.

Side note: anyone else often think of our "family" in comparison to the Dark Brotherhood...?

It was blue before a bunch of other DIRs went green, so there was no color change here.

That is kind of silly, but I get it. Scotty was right, though its much like a comparison I observed in training in martial arts and instructors.

Some have a question only basis, and are more strict and impose discipline (because some arts require a good amount of self discipline to actually fully understand) while others are more relaxed and free with their expression. Some don't even like that you ask questions.

Its important to instill tradition while still remanifesting or spending in cycles and working with what you have.

Is there anything that the LHP is really about? If so, what is it called if you wish to not conform to even that?
