I read the books 30 years ago, and recently started reading them again.
I've realised that I've been doing a lot of the work without really realising it (not the darkroom stuff). I've also realised that I "see" things, but not visually or even mentally (visual images).
I'm talking about stuff like parent spider sense. As an example, I came home late the other night, and something felt off with my teenage son. About 20 minutes later, I saw/knew that he was intending to go out with his girlfriend once I'd gone to bed. He was just sitting near me on his phone when it happened. He confirmed it when I confronted him (and was dumbfounded).
I'm struggling to work out where the seeing happens, or whether it's more of a body seeing rather than a mental visualisation thing. Any thoughts?

Time can’t be separated from seeing (silent knowledge) because it’s literally what the emanations are “made of.”
Try getting your head around that!
I suspect that you would get the most benefit from recapitulation, which more directly deals with the mysteries of memory and nonlinear time.
Here's a video on what causes "seeing".
There's no confusion when you reach it, because it's as visible as it is in this cartoon.

However, your energy body can swarm you and pass it's magical vision to you, which can include what you mentioned.
It's just not a path to anything useful. And harmed our community for a very long with "Tai Chi Instructors" amidst us, declaring "I can see".
When in fact, they never did any work at all, to learn to do that.
The Reddit hosted video will help to save archive.org bandwidth.

I'll try to remember not to do that in the future. But I did point to the 1080p link instead of the 4K.
Too bad Hamas doesn't fund archive.org.
From what I've seen, half their content is Islamic terrorism training videos.
Unfortunately, there is some of this going on 😖

They see the same benefits we do.
It's free.
They don't censor content.
It's likely to last a long time.
I'm just waiting for them to discover our demonic materials.
Except Islamists have some kind of acceptance for Sufism.
So maybe they'd tolerate real magic being taught.
Instead of toss you off a tall building, the way they do with gay men.
when you have an intense emotional connection with someone. you can sometimes feel their intent and interpret it.
A comment that was, I believe, meant for the OP of this post:

True. I look at so many comments on social media that I just can't practically keep perfect track of who's who without losing another hour a day.
Which would mean less cartoons and pictures.
His idea of "seeing" is in fact obscene pretending.
Harmful to anyone who reads it, who hasn't seen themselves.
