A critique of Stephen E. Flowers' Lords of the Left-Hand Path is that his emphasis on "becoming" could lead some readers to misunderstand the process as striving toward a future state of being, implying that we are not yet fully realized but will be someday. This perspective risks overshadowing the deeper truth: we already are, in our essence, fully sovereign and divine. The journey is not about becoming something we are not but uncovering and embracing our true nature by removing illusions and limitations. However, I have not spoken with Flowers directly, so I cannot say with certainty whether this interpretation reflects his true stance or simply a misreading by others.
