Dear Simon, >> I thought it might be appropriate to add that some Qabbalistic sources will suggest that elimination of bodily wastes can be used to cleanse the body as well by impregnating waste matter with undesireable personality traits. This works well from an alchemical perspective too. For the record: to the best of my knowledge Bardon never suggested this particular technique (although, IMO, it complements the work in IIH well). To call this eucharistic magic would be a disturbing stretch, however :) << :) This is the same principle as the Step Two physical exercise of magical exhalation. The positive ideation is inhaled, through the whole body, along with the Vital Energy. Then the opposite of the positive ideation is exhaled along with the waste products of respiration and that portion of the VE which the body does not absorb. Just as everything that our three bodies ingest can be used magically to our advantage, so too, everything our three bodies excrete can be used magically to good end. My best to you, :) Rawn Clark 17 Aug 2004 rawnclark@... rawn@... http://www.ABardonCompanion.com http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BardonPraxis http://E.webring.com/hub?ring=arionthebardonwe
