The traditional view of Magic is that being a magician and doing magic are not the same thing. This does not mean that magicians do not practice magic. But this means that not everyone who practices magic (that is, performs a certain set of actions) is a magician

For a magician, the real purpose of the ritual is, first of all, the possibility of accumulating Power (or Authority), and only then - a specific result. That is why traditional training in Magic is aimed, first of all, at making a magician out of a person, and after that, teaching him the actions of a magician

If a person behaves half the day like an ordinary stupid person, feels and thinks like a person, and then in the evenings “does” magic, “works” with “techniques,” his path leads to a dead end. He will spend his strength and end his life the same way he led it - at best, like an ordinary person - and then only if in his “activities” he does not confuse his wyrd

Only if the Traveler constantly and carefully checks himself, his thoughts and actions for “magic”, and “practices” for harmony, compliance with his Path, does he have a chance to win the battles that fate has prepared for him and realize his Orlyog
