To Leave the Body.
'Tis not wise to strive to get out of your
body until you have thoroughly gained the Sight. The same ritual as to
gain the Sight may be used, but have a comfortable couch. Kneel so that
you have your thigh, belly, and chest well supported, the arms strained
forward and bound one on each side, so that there is a decided feeling of
being pulled forward. As the trance is induced, you should feel a striving
to push yourself out of the top of your head. The scourge should be given
a dragging action, as if to drive or drag you out. Both wills should be
thoroughly in tune, keeping a constant and equal strain. When trance
comes, your tutor may help you by softly calling your name. You will
probably feel yourself drawn out of your body as if through a narrow
opening, and find yourself standing beside your tutor, looking at the body
on the couch. Strive to communicate with your tutor first; if they have
the Sight they will probably see you. Go not far afield at first, and 'ti
s better to have one who is used to leaving the body with you. A note:
When, having succeeded in leaving the body, you desire to return, in order
to cause the spirit body and the material body to coincide, THINK OF YOUR
FEET. This will cause the return to take place. |
