Singular Focus, Magick and Gung Fu
“For I am I: ergo, the truth of myself; my own sphinx, conflict, chaos, vortex—asymmetric to all rhythms, oblique to all paths. I am the prism between black and white: mine own unison in duality.” Austin Osman Spare (Artist and Magus)
Close your eyes and focus on one task, object or state of being to the exclusion of all other thoughts. This is the essence of singular focus (a.k.a. Gnosis); a fundamental tool in the practice of Chaos Magick. It is the state of mind required to influence the Universe, to create the correct spiritual environment that allows your ‘Will” to operate.
Take the same state of mind. Exclude all other thoughts. Focus on your opponent. Anticipate his movements, deceive him. Hit him, move. Finish him.
