Ganymede progression

There may have been some confusion about what you were able to view, or about how the information was conveyed to you. In this thread, i haven't posted the actual text of the lessons only because I don't want to tread on Steve's toes. But it's by no means a secret.

The only thing I think that's weird about it is the name. The rest of it seems pretty standard, I mean half the IP is basically 'write about your thought and feelings on *insert topic here*' :laugh:

Well yeah, stuff like that is in the IP... but I've been against such things in the AP and beyond for a while now. I dunno, just feels way too low level for knights and knights-in-training.

I've done stuff like it in my apprenticeship, with the chakras, but it isn't just my "thoughts and feeling about x topic", but a in depth analysing of my emotions, stresses, ect ect. That seems more on par of the higher standard that should be set beyond the IP. To regress down into IP level stuff after the IP just feels... meh.

This is by no means IP level stuff. Unless one's responses to it are IP level. But that's not baked into the program.

I guess. I just see people working through these lessons and their responses aren't really what I'd consider good enough. But oh well, prolly why I'm not in charge of education here.

If the Ganymede Progression is something you choose to adapt with your own Apprentices someday, or choose to tackle yourself, you'll have the benefit of seeing the entirety of the work and the conversations about the work, rather than just what is recounted in a semi-public journal. My own journal doesn't adequately convey the depth of the spiritual awakening I have found here; even my capstone document is pretty much the 10% of the iceberg that one can see from the surface.

I've been tempted to try it, but I'm not sure if I'm ready for it. It's a lot of work and a lot of effort and a lot of potential navel-gazing i might not be prepared to handle.
