Criticism and Feedback: How Can We Improve?

AvatarHigh Priest Zevios Metathronos3 min to read

After the recent post and the overwhelming positive and necessary points about future goals and advancement. That has been an impressive post.

I marvelled reading the many positive comments, especially those who mentioned how much Spiritual Satanism and the Gods have changed you and improved you. We must build further on this.

Most of the things mentioned are already under way. Admittedly that is very positive. The communal value is supposed to increase all the time.

Part of this is dealing with potential mistakes.

Now, it would also be a good idea before the end of the material year, to start another conversation.

This would be over things where you think there should be improvement or constitute mistakes.

Here, we might speak of mistakes or even criticism, but we must focus on this: It has to be functional and of use, and presented properly.

For useful conversation, even if this is aimed at other members or the community, it would be a good idea to express in a respectable manner. Among kin and like minded people with a common mission that is important.

If someone also has negative feedback or even very negative comments, I am open to listen to these of course, but I would request to treat other JoS members with respect, especially people who toil for everyone else everyday.

That is not a question for infiltrators, but for members. Except if maybe you are lukewarm infiltrators who are actually with us but you still say bullshit to yourself that you dislike "us" while you actually do not fall in this category in the end of the day.

That is not a post to isolate a member and start judging them, but rather for community improvement.

The degree of tolerance for error must be understood as being part of nature. We are disgnosing to raise the bar here, not to break people who already want to give.

Further, if one is new or one has not much to point out, then maybe one could write about how they would expect to have a better experience. Or what made you struggle in learning or something similar.

Recognition of errors must happen on a basis of experience. But all opinions welcome.

Example: There has been a lot of editorial errors in many posts or even webpages. There were mistakes. We located them and fixed them. The outcome is that through pointing these mistakes and doing the proper criticism, then putting the work, the errors are being more and more fixed. The aim is to remove these mistakes.

The aim is this: To find out potential areas of improvement and have an upwards going trajectory for the good of the Gods and the JoS community, to reflect this back on members, for our collective growth.

I had a message all typed out but it's gone. Zevios. I ask you not presume to my potential nor my contributions, I won't pretend to know how you have played a part or the work you have attributed. The jos says you shouldn't reveal your connection to certain Gods or share spiritual awakening with just anyone.

Sorry for the late reply but I just finished a week of exams where I passed my diploma (and on top of that I must have covid).
...

It may be childish. I'm not old enough anymore but it's the reality. I fight against these fears. I needed your help.

Congratulations on your diploma, hope the Co-Vid thing passes quickly.

I understand, just make sure to exercise a bit of emotional control. Trolls do not matter. They just try to make themselves a negative presence due to trolling and nothing else. No further attention is deserved.

I will not say there are not cases of Zevism who do warfare, anonymous work, or any other things. These things are observed by the Gods. But there are cases and it's more often the case than not, that people who do nothing at all just invent a soap story on how they do things "For the Gods", while in fact, nothing is done, as almost always the Gods direct people to act for the sake of others, to evolve us in that manner.

The problem is that most of these cases you describe rely on complete subjectivity, ie, mental dross and imagination, and nothing is reflected on the help of others, which is nothing but an egoistical extension of a defunct inner self.

This translates itself in what you state, but it's very dangerous as it does not really mean advancement for one's self and others, it simply means one is in love with the lower samsaric ego which pressuposes to only verify things by it's own self and uses itself as the solitary judge. In short that is egotism on steroids. People who do absolutely nothing at all commonly write this.

Inner work like meditation etc, needs to be verified by one's self. Yet, if there is nothing else besides this, here is who one has benefitted: One's self and nobody else.

Despite of any "inner" or "invisible work", in my personal case, the attribution is the obvious and the necessary repetitive work and service. This does not require any knowledge only basic logic as it's in front of everyone. To become complete, all layers of this work are required.

Yes, you are right. When the emotional overload takes me, I lose my mind. It is a very big weakness. May the Gods help me to overcome this to be stronger. I am ashamed of it, it is true. But I can't say anything but the truth of what I feel.

I have graduated! I got the answer yesterday! On the anniversary of my Dedication! I am so happy :D

Yes it's the covid, I'm very tired, a huge headache, coughing like crazy, but it will do. I can barely speak haha but I'm going to do the 3 days of rituals for our Beloved Father and the wonderful Gods 😊

This is the targeted message.

Embedding media, as shown here: https://ancient-forums.com/app.php/help/bbcode#f6r0
does not seem to work for me. It just says "You cannot use certain BBCodes: media."

So fixing this would be an improvement.
