The technique involves the construction of an astral temple and an approach to it through a well-
defined route, which the magician formulates by using his visualization capabilities. This he gradually
establishes by going over the route with a close attention to detail time after time until it is 'inscribed',
as it were, on the astral and remains the same every time he traverses it. Once his temple is
constructed and he is thoroughly familiar, both with the route and the building itself, inside and out,
he may send out a 'call' for an initiator to come to him, and, if he persists, sooner or later a contact is
made with his Holy Guardian Angel.
First it is necessary to become absolutely familiar with the details of the route, which must be decided
upon before the operation. The magician can write his own, but to begin with it is useful to use a
description that has already been formulated, such as the following. But remember, visualize details as
much as possible and read and re-read the sequence over and over again until you are absolutely
familiar with it.
Only commence the practice after you have written out the description and are completely familiar
with every detail of the scene, from the type of trees encountered on the way down to the minor
details of the architecture.
A fairly extensive preparatory period (say two months) should be undertaken with the magician
regularly spending about an hour each day (15) (without missing a single day) going through the
following sequence:
a. Relaxing. To relax, one must be aware of tension, so the beginning of this exercise involves tensing
every muscle as hard as possible, and then, when fully aware of the tension, letting it go. Repeat
several times until you are sure that all the tension has gone out of your body.
b. 2/4 Breathing Sequence.
1
. Empty your lungs. (Don't force the breath out.)
2
. Breathe in to a mental count of four. (Use your pulse to measure the speed, and if you have taken a
full breath before the end of the count modify your rate of breathing.)
