If the consciousness of an ordinary person is asleep due to being bottled up within the ego, how can any black magician have an awakened consciousness?
"...there are several types of awakened consciousness:
1. First: the awakened consciousness of the innocent creatures of nature.
2. Second: the awakened consciousness of the devolving humanoids of the abyss [black magicians, witches, sorcerers, etc].
3. There is a third type of awakened consciousness. I am addressing the consciousness of Masters, the Gods." —Samael Aun Weor, Hell, the Devil, and Karma
