The Magic Lamp

   "  …and from the Cosmic Source shone forth the light

      that is Divine Energy, Divine Knowledge, Divine Love."

You can, if you wish, take advantage of the magic art of the Ancient Chaldeans and Egyptians. It involves an esoteric technique that “combines” thoughts and emotions with phosphenes, i.e. the coloured images that remain in the darkness after looking at a light source.

This technique considerably increases the effectiveness of all visualisations.

 You can use it to your advantage. Don’t hesitate to combine it with some of the visualisations techniques described in your “Big Book of Secrets”.

To do this, you will need the following items:

·          A lamp with an opalescent bulb (75 to 100 watts) and a reflector about 18 centimetres in diameter. Attach an extension cable with a switch so that you can operate the lamp from a distance.

Better still, use a photographic enlarger, which is not much more expensive than an ordinary bulb and which has the advantage of having a whiter light.

·          An opaque blindfold, like the ones sold in chemist’s shops for sleeping in a lighted environment.

·          When you have absorbed the positive energy of your Sacred Space, perform the “Cross of the Elements” ritual.

·          Sit on  a chair about 2 metres from, and squarely facing, the lamp which should be on a level with your face. Make sure the switch is within reach.

·        To help with your visualisation, use a medium that, in one form or another, represents the object of your desires.

This can consist of a picture cut from a book or magazine, a drawing that you have done yourself, a photo that you have taken, a sculpted object or a model: the list is endless. Give free rein to your imagination.

·        Concentrate hard on this medium and contemplate it for several minutes.

For example, using a photograph of your business premises, imagine them full of customers. Then visualise your till full of the day’s takings and feel the joy and satisfaction that this gives you.

·        Now switch on the lamp and stare at the the reflector (and only the reflector) for 30 seconds.

You can blink (move your eyelids) normally, but don’t move your eyeballs.  Then switch off the light, put on the blindfold and close your eyes.

After a few seconds, the phosphene appears in the form of a circular patch of light that will pass through various phases of colours: a beautiful brilliant yellow edged with red, then green, red and blue. The phosphene lasts for about 3 minutes from when you switch off the lamp to the end of the blue phase.

Use these 3 minutes to "combine” the desired mental image with the phosphene; i.e. by concentrating on a particular thought (chosen in advance) while the phosphene lasts (in this instance the visualisation of your business etc.).

N.B.: the thought that you “combine” with the phosphene can be a mental, visual or auditory (sounds, music) image or a feeling such as gratitude, love or joy. It’s up to you be creative in you wishes and ambitions. But never use negative feelings (e.g. obsessive hatred) as this could have extremely violent repercussions.

In the case of a picture or photo, you can superimpose it on the phosphene (it often appears in miniature).

Don’t be discouraged if at first you find it hard to retain the phosphene and the thought in your mind: this is quite normal and doesn’t last long.

·        Start with ten-minute sessions, the equivalent of 3 phosphenes (3 x 30 seconds’ light-switching off + 3 minutes’ visualisation). After a few days, you can gradually increase the length and number of the sessions, until they are about an hour long. This will give maximum efficiency as it corresponds to the natural cycles (i.e. three-quarters of an hour) of the functioning of the brain.

   This technique, which may appear tedious, is extremely powerful.

 Those who practice it enjoy many benefits as it transforms light energy into   positive and creative mental energy that attracts luck and success in business.

It also attracts money, personal success, health and love, depending on the theme chosen.

The Ancients practised this technique by staring at the sun or its reflection in water, which is not very practical on a regular basis, as you are dependent on the weather.

Recommendations:

If you observe the lighting standards indicated above, this technique is absolutely safe.

Do not use ultra-violet, infra-red, coloured or neon lamps.

Remove spectacles and contact lenses during these sessions.

Do not drink alcohol for at least 3 hours before a session (alcohol destroys the sensitive and delicate sensations produced by the "phosphene” technique).

Contra-indication: glaucoma.
