Topic: Etheric Double

Joe Rupp outlines the three stages of the Hermetic Mysteries, focusing on the "operation of the moon" which involves understanding the mind and the elements. He explains how he uses focus and trance states to lead participants into a hypnagogic state, where they can experience their "etheric double." He argues that once a person experiences this altered state, their understanding of manifestation shifts from a desire for things to a realization of their own nature.
