From incarnation to incarnation, from life to life, consciousness is under the pressure of parasites and predators that prevent its effective work, and therefore the being develops like a sprout growing in darkness and dryness, sometimes taking the most unsightly forms, sometimes it changes not in the direction that is required based on the very logic of its development, but in the one that where there is less pressure from predators
This uneven development leads to the fact that usually the human Psychocosm is a set of infrapersonalities that do not fit well with each other, “islands of consciousness”, between which normal communication is often disrupted - a conflict arises, and to the total war of consciousness with the Parasite is added a civil war in the consciousness itself
At the same time, most of the life force is spent on keeping such "inner demons", which in fact are the same parts of consciousness as the rest, suppressed and oppressed. In fact, the key difference between Magic and psychology in this matter lies only in the fact that Magic claims that not all "inner demons" are clogged and suppressed "complexes", that there are real enemies inside the Psychocosmos
The task of a Magician is to achieve the totality of his being. In other words, he doesn't just have to reveal his subpersonalities, he has to integrate them into a single system, filling the gaps between them or at least building bridges between them. At the same time, it is very important not to integrate predators, separating the "wheat from the chaff"
