Gemini

1. It is also indispensable that the disciple learns to “enter” through the doors of those “sidereal” temples in the astral body.
2. The main exercises of Gemini have as objective, to learn the use and maneuver of the astral body.
3. In this sign, we also teach our disciples the secret art of the “Jinn” states, that will allow them to “carry” their physical bodies to the most secluded and remote places of the earth, in a few instants.
4. We will give various clues in a numerical form:
5. 1st The disciple should lie on his bed in a horizontal position.
6. Relax the body so that no muscle applies pressure on the astral body.
7. Become drowsy pronouncing the mantram “Rusti” like this: Ruuuuuuussssstiiiiiii.
8. This mantram is pronounced mentally.
9. In those instants, the student should become a “spy of his own sleep”
10. When the student already finds himself in that state of drowsiness or somnolence that precedes sleep, he should get out of bed and leave the room.
11. How? In what manner?
12. Almost all students suppose that it is an exercise of magnetism or auto-suggestion, etc., but they are lamentably mistaken because here we are not dealing with auto suggestion or hypnotisms.
13. Simply get out of bed for Nature will do the rest.
14. She will know how to separate the astral body from the physical body.
15. The disciple merely needs to stand up and leave his room for Nature will do the rest.
16. Already out of his room, the student will take a little hop with the intention of floating in space and if he floats, he will then be able to transport himself to the Gnostic Church in a few seconds.
17. But if he does not float, the disciple should once again get into bed and repeat the experiment.
18. Some succeed immediately, others take months and even years to learn.
19. But the “tenacious” succeeds in the end.

1. 2nd In an almost imperceptible manner, a keynote always resounds within the brain of every living being.
2. That keynote is that of the ray to which each person belongs and seems to come from the cells of the cerebellum.
3. Some hear the sound of small flutes of the Egyptian ray; others will hear the “gong” of the Oriental ray, others the roaring of the sea, of the lunar ray, etc.
4. If the disciple silences all his thoughts in the calm of the night, he will hear his keynote; then he can cause that note to vibrate loudly, with will and when the note is already so loud that it invades and semi-paralyzes the entire physical body, the disciple should get out of bed and betake himself to the Gnostic Church for the Masters of the White Brotherhood will receive him there with incomparable happiness.

1. 3rd If you find yourself dreaming that you are at a certain place and you awaken, then do not move, become sleepy once again, with your imagination set on the aforementioned place, feeling yourself there again as if trying to continue the dream just as it was unfolding, while you cling to that place of the dream with thy Will.
2. Imagination and Will united in vibrant harmony is the key to this clue.

1. 5th Keeping in mind that the soul wanders in all the familiar places or locations during ordinary sleep and that in a state of drowsiness it is occupied in the same trades and toils of the day, you should become accustomed to asking yourselves during the entire day:
2. Where am I? Am I within the body or out of it?
3. Then you will take a little hop with the intention of floating.
4. It is logical that if you float, it is because you are out of the body, and if you do not float, it is because you are still in flesh and bones and continue your path.
5. But, if you manage to float, ask your Inner-Self to take you to the Holy Gnostic Church.
6. One should ask this question in the presence of something which attracts his or her attention, such as a crowd of people, a funeral procession, a strange object, etc.
7. Many have awakened their consciousness with this formidable clue, because on asking this question, they floated in the air and realized that they were out of the body and that the body had been left asleep in bed.
8. “It is because the soul wanders when the body sleeps.”
9. But the soul can come out of its unconscious drowsiness with this clue.

2. Subject: To not fall into the forgetting of oneself before any representation.

4. Place: The rigorous observation of the place where we may be, ask ourselves, “What place is this? Why am I here?”
5. Upon observing a place, we should never forget the matter of the seven dimensions of nature; it is convenient, therefore, to ask ourselves: “In what dimension am I?
