This morning, while darkroom gazing, I saw stairs leading up to an opening with an arched ceiling. It started as lines against a textured surface that turned into 3D stairs as I looked at it. I followed the stairs up with my gaze and saw a hallway with an arched ceiling. I pointed at the hallway, indicating that I'd like to go there. This took place over ten seconds or so. I saw a brief flash of a demi-human face that drew my attention away, then when I went to look back at the archway, it had already started to fade or degrade. Shortly after, I heard a clear feminine voice in the second attention say, "Will you draw a picture of this for me?" I repeated back what I heard out loud and said, 'Yes.' Then I waited for something to show up, thinking something else would appear. Then, after the session, I remembered what I had heard and realized I should illustrate the stairs and hallway. During this darkroom session, my usual IOB friends were visible.
If you've read some of my other posts, the following may seem repetitive. I'm including it in case someone new stumbles on this and needs context on what my sessions include before I sit to gaze with eyes open while wearing an eye mask. Also, I've recently added more passes to my "warmup."
I typically start my sessions by recapping the events of the previous day, then chip away at my history. Depending on when I wake up, I spend either 30 or 60 minutes doing this.
Tensegrity: I start with the Lifesaver pass, then Fluidity foot, Sorcerer's Breath, and one of the pressure holds, Offering and Receiving Energy, which were recently taught by Jadey in her Saturday sessions. Then I'll move on to a few passes from the Inner Silence series, Getting the AP Loose pass, and Forcing the AP to Drop Down pass. After warming up, I begin with DVD Vol. 1, Unbending Intent (mashing & stirring energy), followed by the Westwood series (center for decisions, recapitulation, dreaming, and inner silence). I then proceed to DVD Vol. 2, incorporating the affection for the energy body pass. I add Zuleica's pass and strum second attention spot throughout the session between series. Lately, I have been bringing something down with Stellar hatch(end of vol 2) and will repeat the mashing energy passes before sitting on top of it.
I typically spend one to two hours a night doing passes. Whenever I see colors or blackness, I grab and stuff them onto my torso/pouches. If there's a nice puff, I'll stop what I'm doing and play with it by stretching it or holding it up to my face. I'll do this throughout my session. When performing the passes, I take my time and ensure I see something while doing them, like my arms or legs moving, or colors or line fragments being influenced by my movement. Throughout, I put forth my best effort to silence my internal dialogue.

Your selection and order of performing Tensegrity passes was very educational for me. Thank you so much!
I was checking the “DVDs”; they look great in 1080p: https://www.youtube.com/@Sorcery_Media/videos
By the way, Kylie’s voice is very sweet in Spanish!
Another thing—I kept scrolling through the videos and there were some strange people there saying things…
The " electric" warrior/scout?
This is the delulu Amy Wallace (see: Sorcerer's Apprentice: My Life with Carlos Castaneda)

I didn't realize it was Amy- she looks like the lady afterwards- Andra- workshop participant...I didn’t see Amy's name come up and must've thought they were the same .
..(." The Enigma of A Sorcerer ", around 29:40.)
The " electric" one came afterwards around 34:00

She seemed to have gone down rapidly after that
Thanks, I wasn’t sure if she was that “Amy”.
"Strum the second attention spot"
Let's have a demo video or animation about that, someone who knows how to do it.

That's gold.
Keep in mind, this point truly becomes SOLID, but long before that you'll get flashes of light in the air where you wiggle, that are anything but vague!
And ultimately when you get that "dent" to form, you ought to be able to glance down at that spot, and make your physical body vanish so that you can travel in that energy body like it was a jet plane.
We don't know yet what happens to your physical matter if you, for example, travel to Beijing.
I'm not sure it would be good if your physical body went along and you found yourself stranded in the forbidden palace.
The Chinese would kidnap you and dissect you most likely.
To study your organs for emperor Xi to live forever. He actually said that was possible by harvesting organs, in a recent "off mike" capture talking to Putin.
So you don't want to reassemble in China!
But we do have some indications that your physical body can actually be transported that way.
Just no one that advanced yet.
I've been thinking about this thing for a long time since I've a background in Physics and anti-gravity has always interested me. Those UFOs take off at break-neck speed and it looks like a strobing effect. Before I found this subreddit I read the book The Holographic Universe and it convinced me that those craft don't travel through real space, or the machine itself is a projection.
But about our topic here, I can't remember where it was in the books... I think Don Juan said that Don Gennaro was travelling along the "lines of the world" and that they came out of the navel area. But it's probably the double doing the travelling? I don't know enough about this stuff, all I know is I have to keep practising.
We don't know. That "lines of the world" thing is a bit less clear in some of the earlier books.
It gets mixed up with the emanations, versus the tentacle body. And then, with some sorcery idea of "ley lines".
However, the tentacle body might in fact just be micro clumps of emanations that are particularly energized for viewing reality.
I've seen them sweep around in a circle like radar, to light up reality.
I got to watch that for around 15 seconds once when Cholita stood still for me in a parking lot. It was quite spectacular to see those lines radiating from her mid section, and the dried plants in the whole Foods parking lot, glowing when a line swept by them. Then fading away to almost nothing, only "renewed" when the lines came back to that spot.
So perhaps, the tentacle body and the lines that come from the stomach and allow travel, and the lines of the earth, are all the same thing but in different clump sizes.
In fact, we KNOW they are, since there's only the emanations, and our awareness.
That sorcery "energetic fact" is ripe with quantum physics implications!
Except it's no theory in sorcery. You get to both see it with your own eyes, and manipulate it.
Penrose might be interested, but it wouldn't be a good thing if our little group got more publicity.
We'd be destroyed.
I'd well believe it. I saw all those creepily-taken photos of Castaneda and his crew from the 90s.
very nice experience!
can you share more about the voice? how did you experience it? 🌬👂
The voice didn’t land in my ear, it landed in my head. I’ve experienced physically hearing my first name being whispered during recap, this was different.
This felt injected, like an audio only dream flash. Very clear in quality, pronunciation etc. but different enough from me to remove doubt that it was my ID.
In August and July during gazing I had multiple sessions where I’d hear nonsensical phrases but the voice would be different every time, sometimes sounding robotic or tinny. Afterwards I commented to someone that they felt like sound checks or like adjusting the frequency on a radio. There’s been progression leading up to this. Also, during those other sessions I’d always repeat what I heard out loud to give feedback.
Come to think of it, I noticed a similar progression with seeing text in the air. Whereas I’d see symbols that didn’t make sense to me, then later I’d see perfect type text in the air.
cool!🤘🏻
I've experienced it like that many times too..
I've also seen these symbols you mention, they look like strange glyphs that change shape until they finally take on the shape of a letter..
Did you use to draw when you were a kid? Could be worth considering to draw it for yourself as well
I used to draw as a kid but never considered myself any good at it. I can try sketching it later today.
I feel as though
I've been pulled out of time
Like a magnetic field pulling
All the precious metals and
Minerals right from my cells
Leaving nothing but vapor
So i dug down deep
Within myself
And found ribbons of
Liquid fire, like the
Of aurora borialis twisting
Greens and purples and pinks
And blues and oranges and
Yellows and reds
Right into the same
Mist of air we breathe
Deeper
Still
Moving so quickly
Here is there
Is here, is everywhere
All at once and
That is just the way
It is in this
Particular agreement
Deeper
Still
Inside me I heard
Harmony of cooperation
A fluidity so tranquil
I almost forgot to
Breathe
And there was nothing
To see
Still I know that
Still I Am
Still me
So there is something
to See
And that's hilarious
