    subject in this lesson is the complete awareness and integration of the astral body. The astral body is composed of emotional-energy, as opposed to physical-energy. Unlike physical energy, emotional-energy is not measurable with scientific instruments. Therefore the astral body should not be confused with the aura since the aura, which can be measured, is composed of physical-energy, albeit of a highly rarified nature. An aura is naturally generated by a living physical body and while it reflects the nature of the astral body, it is not the astral body itself. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/MysticalThoughts/support

    I call this technique an archaeous because it's patterned after an Alchemical work known as the archaeous of water. In this alchemical work, one takes a volume of water and separates it into its Elements through a process of distillation. Once the parts are separated and purified, they are recombined or re-integrated, resulting in empowered water that has faculties it didn't possess before. The self-healing archaeous follows this same alchemical pattern of separation, purification and subsequent re-integration, but instead of water, our subject is the three part human body. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/MysticalThoughts/support

    Today I will be discussing the astral and physical sections of Step Four. As I mentioned in my previous lecture on the mental exercises, there are specific prerequisites that you must have achieved prior to beginning the Step Four work. Specifically, you must have attained an astral Equilibrium of the Elements and must have made contact with the factual Elements as a result of your Step Three work. If you have not established this connection with the factual Elements then you must continue with the Step Three exercises until you do since all of the Step Four work is with the factual Elements. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/MysticalThoughts/support

    Today I will be discussing the entirety of Step Six instead of splitting the work into two lectures as I have done in the past. At the opening of the Step Six chapter, Bardon once again, and for the final time, cautions the student as follows: “Before I am going to describe the exercises of the sixth Step, I shall underline once more that all the previous exercises have to be under perfect control in order to keep the balance in the higher degree of development too. It would be absolutely useless to skip one of the Steps or to omit and neglect one of the exercises. Any gap would become very perceptible and the scholar would have great difficulties to make up for one or the other problem in his development. Consequently, the main condition for success remains an excellent basic training.” --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/MysticalThoughts/support

Second is the projection of the Elements through the solar-plexus as defined shapes. And third is the condensation of the Elements directly from the universe. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/MysticalThoughts/support

    Today I will be discussing the rest of Step Two: the sensory concentration exercises, pore breathing and bodily control, in that order. The common theme in all of the Step Two exercises is creativity. Re-creating your personality, learning to create sensory impressions and exercising creative choice in regard to how you react to physical discomfort. The key then is to approach the work of Step Two with the spirit of creative play. The sensory concentration exercises and your first experiments with pore breathing rely upon your innate ability to imagine and pretend. When exercised, strengthened and used with conscious intention, this innate ability of imagination becomes the magical faculty of creative imagination. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/MysticalThoughts/support

    Redemption. Redemption means to either give something new value or to return a thing to its original worth. Imbuing our personality with value, re-making it into an expression worthy of our deepest Self, is what self-transformation of the character is all about. We look into our soul mirror and discern what is already a worthy expression and what is not. Those aspects of our personality that do not measure up to what we want to be and that shame us instead of serving us, are dissected and transformed into traits that are worthy expressions of Self and which do serve us. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/MysticalThoughts/support

    I have chosen this title, “Simple Beginnings”, to emphasize that Step One is just the beginning and that it is simple. All too often a new student of initiation will read the Step One exercises and think that they are very complex and that completing them requires already advanced abilities, or that performing the exercises will require so much time each day that they will have no time left over for anything else, such as making a living and entertaining their friends, etc., etc., etc.. None of these assumptions are accurate. According to his own words, Bardon arranged IIH as if it was “meant for the busiest man”, and even though Bardon's way of phrasing things may seem somewhat archaic and oftentimes confusing to a modern reader, the exercises he is describing in Step One are rudimentary and the essence of simplicity, designed with the absolute beginner in mind. Furthermore, according to Bardon's own instructions, they are each to be completed relatively quickly, within one to two weeks in most cases. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/MysticalThoughts/support

    Tri-Polar awareness is the foundation of all magical work which affects the Physical, Astral and Mental realms simultaneously. In more exacting terms, it is the conscious and intentional inhabiting of one's physical, astral and mental bodies all at the same time and then acting as this unified awareness. When in a tri-polar state, each physical action, such as a hand gesture or spoken word, is simultaneously performed by your astral body within the astral realm and by your mental body within the mental realm, thus causing an effect within all three realms or planes simultaneously. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/MysticalThoughts/support
