10 degrees of initiation (excerpts from the book Gates of Initiation)
The next challenge is learning the magic of the senses.
To start a very important pre-drill: Make sure that the crude material is not your eye sees all, and your spirit, which treats all with the astral and the crude material (physical) eyes.
Meditate on that as often as possible. You need to concentrate for at least five minutes on the fact that the spirit sees and perceives through your physical eyes. Frequent repetition of this experiment, and here you will be able to succeed. If you failed esperimenty with eyes, go to the ears, making installation that captures the sound waves are not your physical ears and ears of your spirit, which are all perceived by the astral and the crude material ears.
If you are here and will achieve the same success as with the eyes, continue to experiment with the feeling, imagining that the spirit feels with the astral body, and it is through the body feels crude material objects, cold, heat and hook on. Hard work out in it, as long as you do not get that exercise as well as exercises with the eyes, ears, and until you have mastered all these skills. If you want to get into this area is very strong development, can conduct experiments with two other senses - smell and taste. But the greatest attention should be paid to the named senses - sight, hearing and perception, which are most widely used in practical magic.
If you have made some progress in the reliability of your senses, try, as well as with the concentration of the senses, to make the installation of two senses of your spirit. Start with the eyes and ears. If you can do the installation for at least five minutes, then set your mind on three sensory organ, namely: vision, hearing and perception of sensations. If you get it, you've had great success in his magical development. This is a preparatory exercise is of great importance for the so-called "clairvoyant", "clairaudient" and "clairsentience" and these also need to master.
