Hi. I Decided it was time to stop being a lurker since I met the requirments for step one. First things first, I owe just about all my success with IIH so far to Rawn and his comentaries. Can't thank you enough for that. Should probally warn everyone in advance, I tend to type and talk in long rambling messes reminiscent of a...um.. long rambling mess? Im not good at metaphors. So I'll try to stick all the important info up at the top, which means i should probally type my questions before they get pushed down to the bottom of the message under a sea of ramble ( rambli? is there a singular of rambling? wait its a verb ) see what i mean? right, questions: iv worked my way through the 3rd installment of TMO, and while I feel as if I have the prononciation and the astral/mental speech bit down, I have trouble fealing the energy. Not sure if its because a) im just not creating alot or b) i cant sense all of it. Im new to franz bardons hermetics, but i have had experience in other systems. How vital is the visualization component? 'cause Iv recently started the visualization work in step 2, and its still a bit shaky ( read alot shaky ), which could be the cause. Thanks in advance to anyone who can answer the question, and apologies in advance for all the rambli. I'll try to lay off the coffee before I post next
