Chapter 3 Beyond Death practice

So welcome to your next big step, to get this ready and mastered it will take quite a while. Do not think you are done within a week, this step alone can take months and even years to fully master, but once done you can reach the ends of the universe and multiple timelines, multiple dimensions even with different laws, its a great thing to do!
Also best part is, ITS FREE!!! No charge at all, so you can poor as hell while doing this. Also i will add in a extra exercise, wich will help you split off with your body more easily plus it helps your visualisation a hell lot!

Physical exercise

Well to start off with a bit of the visualisation and focus training before the meditation (wich will work quite well together as a follow up) 

I will use the practice i got from the book Initiation into Hermetics, why do i do this? Because it starts out helping you with making your mind more flexible and really improving your insight and it also helps out with your visualisation!

Another reason also for doing it, is to help you discover parts of your inner self, you have never seen or discovered before. It helps to also know yourself better in the long run.

So lets start up with the physical exercise, 

- get something simple to start out with, like a emblemless bottle or anything other simple that you like.

- Watch it very very carefully, every bit of detail and think of it that you really know how it looks like in the layer wich you like (some people even go to atom level with this, it does not make your better then the other if you can go deeper, it only helps you making your mind more flexible with images and it also really helps out with increasing your memory).

- After doing this, try to instead of directly remembering it, do something else for 5 minutes. (if you forget the time, just set up a clock or anything).

- Then come back after  your timer went off or you saw that the time was over (dont sweat if it took you longer then 5 minutes to come back, i mean if you can do this perfectly by then, then be proud of yourself) and start remembering every bit of detail that you have looked/checked before.
If you all remember correctly gratz, you move on to the next level and start doing things that are more difficult to remember and visualize.
Do not go to quick though, an student who is impatiënt will only meet half results. Take your time, there is no race, there is no hurry.
As you can see, you also with other things start to remember them more easily, because this also can function as a very well made brain training, screw buying games. You do this your own way and no cost with it!

BONUS Exercise

Recommendable to see this as the next step over here, also this will give you a very very new experience.
Lets rip off your arms and legs! No not in that sense, lemme explain first! 
What i mean with this is that you have a physical, mental and soul layer(Astral layer) or 3 bodies so to say.
And what you are learning here is actually split off the 3 from each other, so that you have a better experience in dreams and also when you go astral travelling to the other plains of existence.
Physically this can help you become more conscious with your own body and its parts, also guess where Phantom parts come from (think about that one).
This is also based from the idea of expanding the idea of a soul and an mental image of yourself and using this theory in a way of improving self exploration.

So lets begin

- Start off with something small, this can be a hard exercise, by now your mind is way more flexible, you know yourself pretty well and you know pretty well about visualising. So to start of, before it actually happen visualise that your 'mental' layer of a finger comes of from the physical one. 

If you do it right, you should feel a response from outside your finger, yes normally you feel stuff on the inside or on the surface, but with this you are able to sense from outside your body. Also the mental layer feels like soft skin.  Once you have mastered this go to the next step.

- Return the mental finger to your body, next is your very very smooth silk 'astral or soul' finger it feels very very smooth and weak, do not worry that is ok, its more of a thing that helps you focus also while walking the astral plane later on, your existence and holding on to it stronger (astral walking can be dangerous, but like i warned you about before, i see you as a magi now, so if you get in trouble, this is a risk you need to take and learn how to deal with it), specially when you get in trouble with certain spirits or you directly want to pull back, before lets say your partner or friends or family bangs in the door and shouts in your ear or anything so that you litterly can die of a heart attack, but this is something for WAYYYYYY later on, when you actually travel.
Just see this as a starting point, once you get used to this, we go to the next level!

- Now do both mental and astral finger at the same time, split them off and once you notice that it starts to work, you should also feel less feeling in your physical finger, do not worry as soon as you put them back it even gets more sensitive.

There are monks in the past that used this technique with their whole body to win it from torture, so that they were just meditating flying around everywhere and their body getting tortured without them feeling a thing. (very high level monks ofc, very strong Christians or any other religion is also able to do this, they fall into pure prayer, so that they can rise above it and that their soul is actually temporarily rising to 'heaven' ) 

- Next step do it with multiple fingers (this same exercise) and eventually your hand, your arms, your toes, feet, legs, then do this with your torso step by step and afterwards even your whole body in the end. Try to hold this for max 10 minutes at first and try to learn how to hold this for an hour.

Also dark joke coming up: Gratz once you start becoming conscious of your multiple bodies, you are now able to travel the multiverse with your soul! So after you die, you can do even more fun stuff! (you need a body there though first to replace your regular body, but this will come in a later chapter).

Mental exercise

Well after the first 2 exercises, we are actually through to something more on the emotional part (mostly teaching you there is nothing to fear if you know how to deal with it). What is currently going to happen is actually 1 exercise for meditation and 1 for becoming friends with wild spirits (so a bit of psychology, once you start knowing them, you not only start knowing more about yourself, but you also start knowing beings beyond our comprehension wich you can learn a lot from!)
The first exercise is for the kind of meditation needed to go to the astral plane, they are meditation types i use myself and there are some traps (i am sorry there always are traps everywhere!).

So lets start with the meditation!

- Sit how you like to sit, but in this kind of thing you can also lie down. I recommend wearing something that darkens your vision and or darken your room a lot! The reason with this is that you actually need to troll your mind for a while.
Your brain needs to think its in complete darkness, some minds will be quicker with this, but you start to hallucinate a bit after a bit, once that is starting to happen. Ignore the strange things around you, your Will by now is so strong that none of these things can even remotely touch you!

- Do the thing with your body you have done before in the last exercise, (i will soon also let you read an extra protection for if you start worrying) and do not be afraid if you cannot go into space yet, in most cases at first you have a hard time standing up with your regular body. At first once in the hallucination mode (some people use drugs, others can just do this with a good dark room meditation) and trying to stand up with your 'astral' body, i recommend not being at it to long, going hardcore with this can get you into trouble (like having a hard time getting back or mental exhaustion)

- once you get used to standing up, try to think about lifting off and flying, again strange walking shadows etc are nothing to fear, you are very powerfull and you have the highest authority in the Universe (except for the core him/her/itself). 

Once you start learning how to fly or you are getting the hang of it, you can even troll or stalk people in physical life, but this is something hard to get to, because in most cases you are hallucinating actually so hard that the world becomes something very abstract and you need a special kind of focus towards the physical plane to be able to stalk people in it. It is possible though, but you are still now in your baby steps, so take your time with this! 

- Ok, you know how to fly now, it probably have taken you weeks or months in some cases. Do not feel ashamed, all of these exercises are meant not to be done in a day! You need to work daily on it and work hard! This is litterly forcing your talents out, but to continue with this exercise, just fly to the edge of the planet there will be another wall there for you to cross, learn there from the spirits its ok!

They are pretty relaxed, but can be pissed at times, because of what certain humans do on their grounds that they rule over. (Remember the rule, wait till one of them comes to you, if it complains let it complain and apologise and say that not everyone of your race is advanced in their spiritual growth and that many are even lost, if he understands you see its form calming down (once angry spirits can take a very very hideous and scary form or when they troll you), if it keeps being angry, state your authority and force it to respect you (personally this is for me the last thing you can do to calm such a being down, its acting like a cop instead of a understanding friend, i do not like this personally)) 

Once starting to learn more about our planet, befriending spirits, to close to deal (or ask for the friendship, NOT A PACT) ask for its name and ask what it specialty is and ask when you can summon it (certain beings want a show of respect like a piece of cloth etc etc, once you really get befriended with them or let them help with your work, they come and go as they please, remember also the basic summoning rules (circles, triangle or whatever else is needed, you can even ask for this from the spirits on the astral plane) of summoning spirits now that i remind myself on it, i am so used to see spirits come and go that i dont need special protection anymore, my Will currently is enough, only when i need to summon a spirit that i dont know well enough, thats when i need protection, not for myself, but for the spirit, so that it can get a chance of living here and get a presence even physically to our level, but thats for another lesson).

- Finally crossing the barrier of the earth, feel free to go whereever you please, keep remember where your home is and keep visualising it (here you see also how important the remembering part is, because once you are truly gone, its like being in a comatose state. Also try to make friends with as much spirits as possible (gotta befriend them all!), but be wary they will always test you and/or try to eat you or try to destroy you, remember your rank and remember the rules on the theoretical side!

Also if you had a hard time socialising with people, this will also be a good practice for you!

(also this 2 practices turned into 1 big one, but they are still 2 different things, i just love continuation in things).

Spiritual exercise

Well you should think by now, how the hell can this turn spiritual, while we had one blast of a spiritual/mental practice!
Easy enough this will be about using your Astral and Mental body with the Physical realm! I will teach you about exerting will through them and even being able to manifest your will with it. I will also teach you the different properties of the mental and astral bodies.

To start off mental

- Shorter range (like your own regular body actually)

- You can feel stuff with it, you are also able to sense stuff on a deeper level then normally or you can feel with something you were not able to feel with when you lost it (like a limb, so yeah phantom limb time).

- If you are strong enough, you can actually move stuff with it around, telekineses is possible, but it takes many many years and a very strong heart and mind to do this, its bad for your health though to do this, so once you are able to do this, only use it when after a heavy meditation for practice (beyond the veil meditation, i will teach this later on) or when there is an accident happening and you are not able to reach it physically. (the mental head (i love this, so many openings to puns) actually helps you work in a layer just beneath the physical one, its like the layer of ropes, all is connected in a certain way and pull on the right rope you get the right reaction)

- You are able to take physical hits way better then ever before and if you are the fighting type, your punches can go through people while giving a punch and using the mental arm to reach just further, results are that people feel as if you are touching their organs directly. (i used to do martial arts a lot when i was younger) 

- Shortcut with rituals, certain rituals requires a lot of signs a lot of connections and seems like you even need 6 arms to do them, guess what, you have!

There is more stuff, but that is for yourself to discover...

Astral body

- goes through everything, there is no actual limit, specially after finding out when you can cross that barrier.

- you can troll people by 'tab' them on the shoulder if focused really really hard.

- you can reach extreme ranges, because of its flexibility, so yeah troll tabs once again or turning off radio's (i hope my mother never reads this, or else when i am chilling out at my moms and my grandmothers place, i get slapped)

- yes you can kick people

- now turning more serious, you are able to touch physical stuff at bursts and it costs a lot of yourself to be able to do it, you can even emit an EMP pulse, but i never reached that level by myself.
What a ghost is able to do, same goes for you!

- telepathy is possible

- connecting hearts technique (something i will discuss in another chapter, its a beautiful things and it lets you love life even more, wich will also come later on).

Well here were some big differences and now with exerting will or emotion even to the people that do not feel emotion at all from others, they only are able to feel it as a part of their own emotions. Watch out with empaths, you can make them crazy with this, i am one myself and its very confusing how to live life at times, with emotions of others and me thinking its my own.

But yeah lets do this! (have somebody close to you to test it out, later on test it with strangers)

- Ok get yourself apart, all 3 bodies

- now return all of them, you are starting to feel very strange! This is good!

- connect this with your Will and a certain emotion of your choice.

- If you are ready, think as if your emotion is exploding all around you, your emotion is showing, but not with expression, but with the screaming of your heart!

- You feel an insane sensation coming over now, calm down, feel it, but do nothing with it.

- Check your range with your friend, from what moment does he/she feels it? 

- After checking up, keep on doing this like 10 times. 

- After being done, take a day break, do another emotion another day, this exercise also helps to increase your Will a lot! And it prepares you for a lot of other things ahead! Also this is the best way how to dodge fights, you can litterly be so passive or intimidating (even if you are very small) that people no matter how big will be afraid of you! 

I cannot wait though to teach you the magicians glare technique, but this will come in a way later chapter. I hope you are having a good time practicing, this has been a very very hard thing to do and do not feel any shame if you are reading this and still working on standing up or anything. Its ok, the reason why you are learning this has to do with the fact that i am rocketing you up to the next level, the next chapter will be about You and YOU!
