The Rule

Sixty days · 1 September – 30 October 2026


“Meditation must be carried out at ten o'clock at night. One must also meditate at dawn. If the student practices at 10 at night and at dawn, he will thus progress rapidly.” The Yellow Book

On waking
before you move

Do not move. Retrospect the night — where you have been, and what you were. RAOM – GAOM. Then write it down.

Through
the day

Where am I? Am I in the physical plane? Am I in the astral plane? At every striking thing — a crowd, a strange object, a shock. Then the little hop.

At ten

Sit. Meditate. Then the day backwards, hour by hour, to waking. In September the night’s practice from the thirty stands in. Bed at ten.

The sixty days

Self–love
One defect. Nothing else. Observe it, understand it, ask for its death. Every appearance goes in the book.

The floor

Five minutes counts. A kept day is a kept day. The chain is the work.

Sixty

Sixty Sunrises

Auckland · 1 September – 30 October 2026


He says dawn, not a clock time, so this is the sun and not the hour. Daylight saving begins on Sunday 27 September and sunrise moves from 06:05 to 07:03 overnight — the sun has not shifted, the clock has. That is day twenty-seven of the sixty, which is exactly where a young habit breaks. Expect it.
