Zevism unlike many other "paths" is not empty and therefore is a path that requires walk and effort. When it comes to empty things, we either have unending obligations that make no sense, or we have nothing at all, ie, just idle mental faith into "something".
When the Gods are real and everything is real, one has to behave accordingly. Most people tend to believe this in a theoretical level at first [which is alright] but when you walk further into the path you start understanding and comprehending about the undeniable existence of the Gods and also slowly you start understanding your relation with them that slowly forms.
The recognition and direct knowledge of their existence brings peace in life and gladdens the heart. Simultaneously, when you know this, you cannot really revert back to ignorance anymore. You can try to move away or whatever, but you will never forget this, and your soul won't. Eventually one will return to the seeking, no matter how life might try to sway you left and right.
Life is supposed to be lived for sure; that's what the Gods tell us to do too. Yet, if one lives a life devoid of spirituality, you will not find a real meaning to it all. You will look left and right in all you are doing or experiencing, going from state to state, but you will never be settled inside. Humanity was made to actually eventually long for this seeking.
Life with the Gods versus life without them, is literally going from living in the pod to the Matrix, to actually waking up and starting to recognize the real world of the spirit; this can be an arduous process but its a honorable process, especially when done with a honest heart. It is the heart that sets you upon the clear path.
Don't worry for people who don't have or display this need yet, they too seek "God" in other ways, which are now related to their level of spiritual development which is low or close to none. One must not compare to others in this path, above all towards external people, but see where one is for themselves and move forward.
The only meaningful way to compare in a way that advances you in this path, is to set a high bar of people who are good into this, and have done a lot of good; and try to follow this example in your own self, to follow a higher quality of existence and life. That will be the only healthy "comparisson" and the above is not called comparing, it's called following what is good.
As we can to improve our spirituality, comparing with the unspiritual people is not going to serve anywhere. Perhaps one of the biggest enemies in swaying you from the path is comparing to other human beings in a negative or unproductive fashion. These forces of emotional response must be used positively to help one stay on the path.
Over the years one of the things Zevism did for me, is that it freed me from idle comparison to what is wrong. Before I joined, like all other human beings I was drawing errant and uninformed comparisons and judgements very constantly. Over the years, I have been liberated by this through knowledge, understanding but above all self knowledge.
It's way a more productive and peaceful way to live that way; you can still compare things, but you are not bogged down by this massive constant pain of errant judgement. That's one of the gifts of this path and proper consciousness. This also gives you a newfound care for other people, which is different than emotional love.
As you start to self develop, you see other people as also developing beings and individuals, and when the negative aspects between these relations are turned to positive, this is where you start to understand the meaning of life better.
Finding your way has one aspect to do with others, and this does not have to be comparison, which has only to be seen as a measurement of necessary affairs in order for us to be realistic. It has to rather be self understanding. That's why Azazel/Apollo told us to "Know Ourselves" instead of comparing to others or doing anything of the sort.
In real life, comparison is unavoidable, but past a point, this mechanism should be turned to a positive mechanism that shows us only a measurement and keeps us close to our own path.
Everytime and everyday you go to meditate and you go to do good things that bring you closer to the Gods and higher to the path, you must understand that you do this for "others" as well, but you also do it for your very own self and for the salvation you bring to your own mind.
The social and communal aspect of Zevism is why we hold strong community, but this path will be a solid and clear highway to the spiritual heavens regardless of how "many" people follow it; that integrity is more important to be remembered than the social aspect, because society comes and goes, but the souls of the wise stay forever.
After a point in this unique and godsend path, you can only go forward, never backwards; into self understanding, evolution and moving upwards with your spiritual quality.
We must thank ourselves, in a world where few things take you down that road, that we have spiritually settled into a path that takes us higher and higher, instead of eventually returning us to the level of worms like the Abrahamic programs.
No matter what happens today or tomorrow, in the Spiritual Satanic mind, it's yet another opportunity and incentive to achieve a greater growth opportunity. Life then becomes more beautiful and always gets this taste of sweetness, instead of major bitterness than the life one had before when one was not awake, when one didn't know that one can always go higher and that one can deny actively of going backwards.
