This is my latest paradigm. It's not an original idea though. As I remember, Alexander the Great used this paradigm to empower himself politically and maybe spiritually.
Anywayz, here it goes. To make the Man-God Paradigm work, one must actually believe that he's a man-god, a human incarnation of the divine. I could use the more traditional terms "demigod" or "avatar" but "man-god" sounds more macho. If the practitioner is a woman, she could refer to herself a "woman-godess". One must let himself in this paradigm even to the point that he'll actually convinced himself and proclaim to anyone that he's a man-god, flawed yet perfect. A man-god imposes his influence on the world even in the face of ridicule. In fact, be it negative or positive, any attention further empowers the man-god. Even if no one pays attention to him, it's still a win-win situation. Whether they deny it or not, the idea of the adept being a man-god is imprinted in their minds. Unless they rid of themselves of the influence, they are , technically and subtly, under the power of the self-proclaimed man-god.
Spread forth and be man-gods and woman-godesses! IDDQD! IDDQD!
