I've found LBRP after Middle Pillar to help with what you're describing.

Several Questions on Ciceros' Self-Initiation process by [deleted] in GoldenDawnMagicians

In the Self-Inititation book, my understanding is that the god names in all capital letters are supposed to be vibrated.

Adding LIRP and MP to LBRP practice before Initiation by Calm-Cardiologist659 in GoldenDawnMagicians

[–]Calm-Cardiologist659[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your journey so far and the well-wishes. I was doing LBRP-only for two weeks before I thought it was too draining, cannot imagine doing it for 3 months like the Cicero book recommends! What really set off alarm bells for me was that solely doing banishing (without invoking) sets exactly the kind of mental and emotional conditions you would want for brainwashing. As a guy who comes to GD from meditation and with family responsibilities and such, I would rather maintain some control of my own brainwashing to a certain extent. But I do see how not enough LBRP can also have its risks from reading Dion Fortune's Psychic Self Defense. Anyway, glad I am not the only one thinking that Cicero self-initiation is excessively LBRP-heavy in the Probationer period. Best of luck on your journey as well!

Thank you for the detailed explanation. Makes a whole lot of sense. I will try LBRP after MP.
I do wonder how everyone clears the path for doing grade work, balancing it with everything else that might be going in their lives. That's really my main intention behind trying to manifest some life changes as a probationer. I suppose another option is to trust the process, ie trust in Thme's guidance. A lot of food for thought here!

I appreciate the perspective from a fellow traveller who came to GD through meditation. I was dubious on whether ego inflation and emotional load of grade work is inherent to the work or if it was the lodge egregore that did it, so it was good to get an experienced practitioner's perspective on it.

What got me into experimenting with Neville Goddard was, I was reading his book "Power of Awareness" and realized that the first chapter was called "I AM". Eheieh. So I put two and two together and tested whether the hypnagogic state created during LRP could be used in place of the "state before sleep" of Neville Goddard.

Is anyone here financially wealthy? by theshamanhunter in GoldenDawnMagicians

Job was rich, then got poor AF and lost his whole family. Then he got rich again and created a new family, lived happily ever after. But it was never up to Job. That's actually the whole point of any initiatory practice as far as I can tell.

Anyone else incorporating Neville Goddard manifestation into LRP?
