Phaneron vs Solipsism
Phaneron= world filtered by our sensory input wikipedia
Solipsism = is the philosophical idea that only one's own mind is sure to exist wikipedia
" If you ask me to tell you anything about the nature of what lies beyond the phaneron, my answer is, “How should I know?” I am not dismayed by ultimate mysteries, I can no more grasp what is behind such questions as my cat can understand what is behind the clatter I make while I type this paragraph. " — martin gardner
Egocentric predicament
Egocentric predicament
is the problem of not being able to view reality outside of our own perceptions. All worldly knowledge takes the form of mental representations
that our mind examines in different ways. Direct contact with reality
cannot be made outside of our own minds; therefore, we cannot be sure
reality even exists. This means that we are each limited to our own
perceptual world and views.

black magic
Black magic is not a myth. It is a totally unscientific and emotional form of magic, but it does get results — of an extremely temporary nature. The recoil upon those who practice it is terrific.
It is like looking for an escape of gas with a lighted candle. As far as the search goes, there is little fear of failure!
To practice black magic you have to violate every principle of science, decency, and intelligence. You must be obsessed with an insane idea of the importance of the petty object of your wretched and selfish desires.
I have been accused of being a "black magician." No more foolish statement was ever made about me. I despise the thing to such an extent that I can hardly believe in the existence of people so debased and idiotic as to practice it.
Article "The Worst Man in the World" in The Sunday Dispatch (2 July 1933); quoted in The Magical Revival (1972) by Kenneth Grant.
