The Role Of The Real Magician

Author: Mukul Sharma Source: India Times

Title: THE ROLE OF THE REAL MAGICIAN
Magic isn’t just what P C Sorcar or David Copperfield do. That’s the kind of stuff that Aleister Crowley defined as “the science and art of causing change to occur in conformity with the will.”
This suggests a very materialistic view. The real view would be that the human will should be aligned in such a way that change occurs within the individual as much as in the external world. This distinction demonstrates the two forms of magic or transformation: the way of dedication and service of the world and the way of personal power and self-aggrandisement; the right-hand path and the left-hand path. High magic versus low magic.

I was always under the impression that High and Low distinctions were about style (High = elaborate ritual vs. Low = simple visualizations and projection of Will) , and Right and Left path were about purpose of one's workings.
Clarify, anyone?
