• Episode 10: Devil Worship in the Desert •
• Host ~ Shea Bilé •
• Guest Co-Host ~ Luzia Lowe •
– On this episode of Deferred Gnosis Podcast:
• Recorded deep in the Piute Mountains in the Eastern Mojave Desert, moments before engaging in a ritual evocation. A candid and intimate conversation on the realities of devotional Religious Satanism and Devil Worship. We also discuss our personal evolution within this discipline, ritual asceticism and blood-letting, transgressive sexual expression, and the self-overcoming nature of the mystical practices that drive our personal religious praxis, as well as our devotional ritual project, Cabal Diaboli (IG: @cabal.diaboli).
• Guest co-host for this episode: alternative model, pro-dominatrix, and ritual performance artist, Luzia Lowe (IG: @the_luzia_lowe).
– We discuss the role of devotion within Religious Satanism:
• The purpose of our venture – on-location in the Eastern Mojave Desert.
• The origination of Cabal Diaboli – a personal history. Transgression and devotional Theistic Satanism.
• A discussion on Satanic film.
• Body modification, blood-letting, self-mutilation, etc. within Religious Satanism.
• Luzia’s history – becoming a dominatrix, BDSM, body modification, and Satanic devotion.
• The realities of edge play – transgression and sexual expression.
• Departure from atheism and embracing devotional Satanism.
• Transgression and asceticism within the occult tradition, the Satanic tradition, and our personal praxis.
• What is mysticism without transgression?
• The need for a system – practice without discipline or belief. The need for painful conviction.
• The question of legitimacy and authenticity within contemporary mysticism.
• We share details and few stories about our previous ritual operations and our magickal practice.
• We describe and discuss the ritual operation we are about to perform. An off-the-grid ritual evocation, isolated completely from everything but the work at hand.
