Many souls have sought the path to immortality. Generally, we are already immortal.

It is the ego that dies, and dies pathetically. Why so pathetically? Well, it believes it is alive, and believes it can extend itself into all futures. With regards to the type of ego here, it is the one attached to the mechanical body. The one that keeps the body moving, going, thinking; albeit shallowly. It gets programmed, it gets pushed from here to there by outside forces and ideas. It seems to have a will of its own.

As soon as you die, it dissipates and all you have left is your actual thought processes. Additionally, these are the thought processes that were heavily influenced by the level of control the ego had, or hadn't. 

Now what if the control was minimal and someone could control it from the top level - down?

I had attempted to refresh my perception of concept riding the pendulum. I understand there is a significant accomplishment in being able to move it at will to where you want to be. I have attempted to describe this process to others in the exact metaphor being used as a swinging pendulum swaying back and forth. Although, for one reason or another, that visual description seemed to only work to confuse. Perhaps a pendulum is too old an artifact for the present. The present ideals move from up to down versus left to right as far as preference.

My own experience has shown me that servitors, the word itself, can have a variable number of meanings to the practitioner. To define servitor here, It should be said that a servitor can be an emanation of the Magi to do an automatic or manual process separate from the practitioner or in conjunction with. Some may liken them to tulpas, but there is a stark difference.
