5. Void meditation

 5. Void meditation

I personally use and recommend two ways of practicing void meditation. You may have other ideas, so don't be afraid to experiment. flame meditation, I believe it is important for getting used to the element of fire, and meditation on the aura is an important ending of Hatha and Kundalini Yoga. However, if someone does not like the Reflection Meditation method, they can easily not do it, or do the Void meditation in a different way. (reflection meditation is not a Black Mirror exercise - I don't do that because I don't have one yet) The important thing here is to concentrate your mind; focus it like a laser.

5.1. Flame meditation

You will need a candle for this, as I wrote at the beginning. It is best to place the candle on something so that it is distanced from the base on which it stands. The point is simply to be able to sit cross-legged (or on a chair) and, with a straight spine, be able to comfortably look at her from a short distance. Too little is not good either; I recommend about thirty centimeters - so that the image is sharp (it does not blur when zoomed in too much).

The distance can be made from a riveted board with a stand, etc. It is important that this solution is practical, durable and comfortable. It doesn't have to be a super-solid structure because these candles are lightweight. Just be gentle with it, and if you [accidentally] drop a candle on your clothes, I recommend ironing it with an iron with a layer of toilet paper or tissue on it - it comes off without a trace. Just don't set the temperature too high so as not to damage your clothes... ;)

Here's my equipment. I put him on the chair, on the board next to it, and I put the candle at the end of the board riveted to the stump. I just have to be careful not to touch this whole structure during meditation, because several times my pants were stained with wax... (then I'm left with paper and iron...)

Here you also set the duration of the exercise with an alarm on your phone, as in the case of Energy Meditation. To start with, I recommend no longer than eight minutes. It's best to place it somewhere next to you so that you can easily turn it off without breaking your trance, because this is not the end of this exercise. When you turn off the (QUIET AND CALM) alarm, you put down the phone and put your hands over your eyes, as on JoS (I will not re-translate it - take a thank Hooded Cobra), and try to keep this "spot" in the dark as long as possible {*}. When it goes out, you can look at the flame for a while. Do all this calmly and slowly so as not to lose this trance and not to accidentally touch the candle...

{*It is good to do this exercise in complete darkness (except for the flame itself), because then you can hold this image much longer. It is also important to be focused while doing this, as well as while looking at the flame, because distraction will quickly deprive you of this desired spot.}

 5.2. Reflection Meditation

You can buy the mirror in a cosmetics store, but personally I think it's better to look for it on Allegro, an antiques market, or something like that (as long as it doesn't have any Christian/Hebrew letters, symbols, etc.). In my opinion, such a "mirror" is more suitable for this than some cheap cosmetic crap. As in the case of Płomień, I recommend making a similar structure, but in this case a solid board and a counterweight work better (I use two dumbbells on each side). two kilos) to be able to move your mirror quite close to you. The position is more important here, because in order to see your reflection without slouching, you need to position it quite precisely.

When it comes to this meditation, as well as the Flame meditation, at the beginning you may have various subtle impressions... Like your first magical experiences. For example, changing reflections, colors, or seeing something in flame.

So that you don't have an unpleasant surprise, I will tell you right away that it will disappear over time, only to return after some time in a more clear and controlled way. This is because the spiritual degeneration caused by Christianity and other similar anti-spiritual programs, as well as alcohol and drugs{*}, cause holes in the aura as well as a hole in the soul's defense system. Breathing exercises and development in general must first repair (build up) what these nasties have broken. Therefore, at first the availability of the astral will decrease, not increase. However, once you are spiritually aware and relatively powerful, you will control these processes.

{*Satanism does not command you to completely abstain from stimulants. But using strong drugs, or frequent use of marijuana and/or drinking alcohol shell destroy your development, because ALL drugs or alcohol destroy the spirit (including those recommended by some "gurus", such as Peter Carroll). Of course, cigarettes are also not recommended. As a consolation, I can tell you that systematic and consistent work on spiritual development completely eliminates the "hunger" or even the desire to take any such substances. If you are not addicted and you like something from time to time (..), then have a beer or two or smoke a joint every now and then. But if "every now and then" is to be more frequent than, say, every Saturday, it is not worth taking up development at all. Waste of time..
Just a quick side note about hallucinogenic mushrooms and things like that. The shrooms open your astral by simply making a breach in the soul's immune system, which you initially have to build up during your development. I'm not talking about other strong hallucinogens because I have no experience, but I think it works on the same principle. It's true (with the shrooms) it was an interesting experience(...), but it's NO DEVELOPMENT, ON THE CONTRARY!}

I will also add here that I personally do not do this exercise anymore. At least for the moment. It is possible that I will come back to it one day, because I have nice memories of it... However, if for time reasons you have to choose, in my opinion, choosing flame meditation is much better because it teaches concentration better, and besides, this meditation works great on the third eye, which is very difficult to fully open. And in summer, when there is a short night and little darkness, you can replace meditation on the flame with inhalation of solar energy. Just a warning - ALWAYS WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED AND WEARING DARK GLASSES if you don't want to damage your eyesight.
