In the process of embodied existence, a creature accumulates a fair amount of unfulfilled promises, unfinished deeds, suppressed desires and other empty experiences that are of no interest and serve only as ballast

In other words, instead of passing Light through itself, only coloring it with the tonality of its individuality, transforming it from “Blue” to “White,” a disharmonious consciousness “loses” part of the Light to disharmonious and unfinished affairs, and thus “throws away shadow". What restrictions and problems will arise in the “next” life are largely determined by what kind of Shadow was created in the “past” life

Shadows exist in a separate state of the universe - Hela, they need the energy that supports their existence, which they draw from the gaps in Adira, which arose as a result of the very disharmonious actions that gave birth to the Shadow. Thus, it turns out that the Shadow is a kind of parasite that siphons energy from the creature associated with it

Magic has developed two approaches to get out of this situation. Firstly, the magician must avoid generating Shadows in his existence - his affairs must be completed as much as possible, and his connections must be effective. It is this kind of existence that is called flawless. Secondly, the magician must, if possible, withdraw support and neutralize the Shadows created in previous incarnations of his Monad. This can be done either by distributing debts (at least in a symbolic action) accumulated over “past” incarnations, or by melting or unweaving your soul

However, regardless of the chosen method, the influence of the Shadows on the magician's stream of consciousness must be stopped, or at least minimized. Without this, it is extremely difficult for a magician to achieve high efficiency of existence
