You are examining something with a magnifying glass. What are you examining? What is the setting?
On the thing you are examining, you notice a tiny hole with light coming through it. The closer you look, the more it draws you in, until you are pulled all the way into it.
On the other side you find yourself in a place filled with masks.
Spot the mask you want to wear. Reach for it. When you touch it, a current of energy flows through you, causing you to be frozen in place.
Someone or something approaches and places a different mask on you. How do you respond to this?
That person or whatever they are then takes you by the hand and leads you away. As you walk, you pass by someone hiding among the masks. They make eye contact with you. They are also holding up some kind of card for you to see. What signals pass between you in this brief moment?
You are led into a festive chamber filled with people. The person or being leading you whispers something to you before merging into your shadow. How is your shadow transformed by this?
The people in the chamber take notice of you. They approach you and lays their hands on your mask. What happens?
These people gather around you a teleport you away to some other location. In this other location before you is a windmill. Approach the windmill and enter it through a door.
Inside is some kind of studio or workshop. What is made here? The person who does their work here takes whatever is being made and makes it a part of you. How is this done? What does it imply?
Afterwards walk up to a balcony higher up in the windmill with that person. Look out over the landscape. What happens next?

Tunnel
You are walking on a mountain carrying a bundle of driftwood.
You approach the entrance to a tunnel into the mountain and enter. Continue down the tunnel,
walking deeper into it.
In the tunnel you pass by some statues.
Once you are very deep inside the tunnel you encounter a post office. Enter the post office and make a call on a telephone you find there.
Still carrying the driftwood, you continue through the tunnel until you reach the exit, where there are some people hanging around. What are they doing?
After exiting the tunnel explore the environment on the other side. Choose a spot for a campsite.
Make a tent out of the driftwood and set it on fire. When this fire burns the driftwood, the driftwood remains uncharred, unchanged. When you get inside the tent to lay down and go to sleep, the fire spreads onto you but does not burn you.
Fall into a deep sleep wrapped in this fire. What are your dreams?
When you awaken you discover the tent has become living wood with dense foliage. How do you feel when you wake up?
Leave the tent and find a supply pack on the ground. What does it contain? What do you do next?

The Gamma Chamber
1 You and a friend approach a chain-link
fence in an impoverished urban area, overgrown with dry grass. The two of you
have come to speak to a group of small apelike humanoids covered in hair, a
supernatural race called the Aziza. You walk up in front of the fence and sit
down, addressing the Aziza on the other side. Being in their presence is like
slipping out of reality and into a kind of lucid dream, or rather, viewing the
same reality through a different lens. Describe the Aziza and the vibration they
radiate.
2 You and your friend have come
to consult these beings on the topic of swift change in the structure of human
society. They have sensed that our collective consciousness has made a choice:
we are concluding our millennia long exploration of suffering and disconnection.
Having made this journey through fear and guilt and unraveled its mysteries, we
are ready to swiftly snap the structure of our society into alignment. The next
step in our transformation will be externally tangible; more than just an
unseen shift. But there is some final stone that must be rolled away, one that has
confounded us in a way we have yet to understand. You and your friend seek
advice on a course of action. The Aziza transmit their response. In the
distance beyond the fence they can see children playing. Bits of garbage tumble
by in the breeze.
3 Several days later, you are
walking down a street in an old part of town when you suddenly receive an
invitation to enter one of the buildings you are passing. What is the
invitation? What does the outside of the building look like? Before entering
the building, at the door you must imagine a chamber where all persons that
have a key role in a conflict or scenario can come together and heal their way
through the situation, choosing a path that all will benefit from. What would
such a chamber contain? How would it work?
4 Enter the building which is a
wide open space, similar to what you just imagined. See how it actually looks
on the inside versus how you envisioned it. The chamber is filled with many
round tables, each with a large crystal in the center. There also appears to be
some kind of empty diving pool.
5 You are alone in the chamber
except for a reptilian being that presides over the chamber. Ask what you have
to do to bring the others here. They say that all you have to do is give the
intention from a state of wanting a conclusion that all will benefit from and
they will come. Ask why and receive an answer.
6 Soon others begin to arrive. Who
are they? What is the issue they are coming to resolve? Each one tells how they
found this place. They give their reasons for wanting to come, even though they
are all in conflict with each other.
7 The reptilian guides the
session that follows. You each paint symbols of your own making on the faces of
the others. You are using a kind of metallic paint that has a very specific
effect on people. What is the effect of the paint? What is its purpose in this
context? What symbols do you paint? What symbols do others paint? Everyone
paints everyone. You must patiently submit yourself as they paint your face.
8 For the second task, the
reptilian makes parts of you become transparent so that you can reach inside
each other to receive what is meant for you. As you put your transparent arm
into them, you can carefully hold their organs in your hands. But you also detect
other mysterious objects. Sift through these contents and detect what is yours
by the amount of resistance you feel. What do you pull out of each of them?
Likewise, humbly allow them to probe inside you and remove what is theirs.
9 Now you are ready to
discuss the situation at one of the round tables. Each person places their
hands on the table on a conductive strip that carries their imbued essence to a
crystal in the center of the table. The crystal burns in an ethereal flame as a
result. Now a mirror appears in an empty seat at the table; whoever is
reflected in the mirror also places their hand on the table and adds their
intentions to the crystal. Those seated at the table ask the flame questions,
knowing that the answers will not be given to them, but instead will be
transmitted to others. By presenting questions to the flame, they can gift
someone else they have never met before with the knowledge of the answer,
someone who will benefit greatly from it. What questions are asked? Describe
the flame.
10 Now everyone at the table goes
over to the empty dive pool. The empty pool below is filled with people who
will catch you when you fall. Describe the people at the bottom and why they
are here. All of you at the top of the pool dive in unison. Describe this fall
and what it is like to be caught. Once at the bottom these people put a blindfold
on each of you before leading you out of the chamber through a secret passage.
When they remove the blind fold, where are you?
1 searching for the present
within the present
2 organizing personality
3 peering through the keyhole
4 making introductions
5 revisiting an old resolution
6 the expanding spirit of necessity
7 opening the floodgates
8 acceptance of belonging
9 the voice of forgiveness
10 remembering to trust

Motionless Currents
1 Begin in a barren ghost town in some form of
post-apocalyptic setting at nighttime. A group of survivors are gathered around
a bonfire. This is a burial pyre where they are destroying the body of a dead
demon. Describe this scene. What is the story behind it?
2 As
the fire dies down, two people wander off from the scene and witness what
appears to be a comet streak through the sky like a meteor, leaving a trail of
luminous dust. This object disappears below the tree tops of the forest that spreads
out in the distance. Who are these two people? Witnessing this sight, they make
a wish. What do they wish for?
3 They
go into the woods looking for the location of the object that fell. What they
find is a miniature comet sitting neatly on the ground. It has holes in it that
open into various passages and chambers that are big enough to crawl around
inside if you are stooped down. Inside this place they discover an assortment
of small motionless candle people; wax figures with wicks sticking out of them.
Describe this exploration.
4
They discover a way of communicating with these wax figures. How is this
achieved? The wax figures make an offer: if you let us freeze the part of you
that allows you to experience human connection, we will bestow a gift to your
people that will ensure their survival and relieve their suffering. By the end
of the discussion that follows, one of the two people agrees and undergoes the
freezing. How were they persuaded to do
this? What is the experience of freezing like? Why did they have to have their
ability to experience connection shut down?
5 The
gift is the candle people themselves. Returning, they bring the candle people
back with them. Still night back at the
ghost town, the other survivors are wakened and there is a gathering of people in
an inner room. The candles are lit, illuminating the room with their glow.
Those gathered experience a sense of deep cognitive loosening and flowing;
their minds are beginning to thaw. What does this lead to? What does the one
who was frozen experience?
6 The
next morning the entire group of survivors returns to the site of the comet with
others and finds that it is melting; a stream of water flows down from it and
away through the woods. A wild horse is drinking from the stream. How does it
respond to the presence of your people? Its spirit is broken by the trauma of
what it has lived through. It bears the weight of the world, but when it stands
it in the water and drinks, all the fear and accumulated densities flow out of
it and downstream like a dark inky substance.
7 Cautiously, your people follow in suit. Placing
their hands and faces in the water, they witness negative emotions and beliefs
begin to diffuse out of them into the water. Describe this experience. The one
who was frozen submerges their face in the water, causing something to flow out
of them but they feel nothing. What flows out of them? How do they interpret
this? How are the others responding to the new condition of this person?
8 In
the weeks that follow, along the path where the stream from the comet flowed
the landscape is transformed into an expansive lush garden. Many different kinds of plants and animals
appear here. But beyond the garden the world is still barren and suffering.
However, no others have yet discovered it as far as these survivors know of. Describe this environment. How do the
survivors adapt to it? What has become of the wax people at this point? What is
their role in the story now? Or do they even exist still?
9
The
frozen person begins to seek a way to restore their ability to experience
connection. What could they do? Is there more to their condition than they
currently understand? What might the consequences of restoring themselves be? Gathering
seeds from the garden they set out on a journey into the wasteland to spread
the seeds. Their hope is that they can begin to heal the world, and maybe in
the process discover a way to restore themselves. What seeds do they take? In addition to the
seeds, they are accompanied by one of the candle people (if you earlier you
said the candle people are gone, find a way to introduce a new one into the
story). What effect do you think this journey actually have on them and on the
world?
10 On
the day that they plant the first seed, they encounter a stranger who makes
camp with them that night. Who are they? What is discussed between them, the
frozen person, and the candle person? During that conversation the candle
person is lit which causes mental energy to flow freely. What is the result of
this?
1 lost
at the center
2 gathering
from beyond hope
3
what you listen for in the silence
4 the
cost of truth
5 centering
the outlier
6 witnessing
the arrival of determination
7 forgetting
contrast
8
seeing with new eyes
9 the
ghosts of misunderstood truths

Optic Weights
1 You are in a large
open space somewhere in a library. In the middle of this open space are several
very dense heavy objects which you are practicing moving with your mind.
Describe the setting and your experience of moving the objects with your mind. Create
a detailed movement frame by frame as they move. Try to get a concept of the
amount of mental energy it might take to actually move these objects.
Perhaps there are
others here with you making it a team effort.
2 Imagine striking
these objects with enough force to dent or crush them. Strengthen your sense of
imagined physical durability so the act of simply visualizing striking the
objects doesn’t evoke a hesitation or fear of breaking your hand. Get to the
point where you can basically shadow box imagined dense objects, such as
boulders or blocks of iron without any sense of resistance. You can visualize a
change in coloration on the surface of the object as it heats up hotter and
hotter where your blows fall, going from an ashy gray to an orange glow.
3 Now switch to what is
basically the reverse of that. Imagine having your body struck with a hard iron
bar. Even in your imagination experience a sickening recoil. Reconstruct your conceptualization
of this experience so you can feel indestructible, completely unaffected by
these attacks. You experience no hesitation or queasiness about imagining
getting hit with that much force. To reinforce this idea, you can recast your
body image so you see yourself as being made of metal or stone. Play with this
idea and manipulate it as you see fit.
4 Begin to wind down
this exercise. Start to breathe deeply and become relaxed. Lay down on a mat in
the middle of the dense objects and allow yourself to drift into a state of
deep meditation and relaxation.
5 As you relax, the
dense objects begin to slowly rise off the ground and into the air. As the objects rise, your body begins to sink
into the floor, as if sinking into a liquid. Remain calm and collected as the
liquid rises over your chest, and then over your throat, mouth, and nose, until
you are completely submerged. Give no consideration to what the outcome of this
might be.
6 When you sink below
the floor, you simultaneously leave behind on the surface a shadow form of your
body which gets up and examines the now floating objects. Describe this shadow
form. What is its capacity for movement? Are you comfortable in this form?
7 As you probe the
floating objects, discover small holes in them that allow you to peer inside. See
that the interior is actually completely hollow. They appear to be made of some
kind of lightweight foil material. Their appearance of density was just an
illusion. Not only that, there are birds inside them. The birds have access to
a various control panels which they use to move the objects, as well as alter
their appearance. Upon realizing that they have been discovered, they are clearly
amused. They put on a show for you and change the form of the objects. What do
they change into?
8 The birds make a
request. They want you to do something with a jar of coins which is what one of
the objects has now transformed into. Describe the jar and the coins. What do
they look like? How valuable are they? What might you be able to exchange them
for?
9 What do they ask you
to do with the coins? How willing are you to go along with this?
After you do or refuse to do what the birds
tell you, the objects sink back down to the floor and become still again. Do
they retain their new form or change back or change to something else?
10 As your shadow self,
you lay back down on the floor in the same spot as your body returns to the
surface. How do you reunite with your body? Is it effortless or is there
something you have to do?
11 Your next task is to
overlay negative thoughts and outdated beliefs onto the objects. This means
that you will hold the image of the object in your mind while fusing them with
the feeling of a negative perspective that is ready to be transformed. For each
object overlay a different negative emotion you want to work. Once this is achieved,
knead the objects like clay, working out all traces of their original forms
until they are just blobs of raw material. Now mold and shape them into a new
forms that are pleasing to you. If you want you can use your mind to telekinetically
aid the shaping of them.
