Epilogue: End Game With the calm that settled over me, I began to sort out and run the various rotes tossed me which I had simply tucked away for future reference. I did this not only to check what I may have missed but to lay the pattern down tightly, on the premise that someone, somewhere, as an individual or group, might seriously investigate the material—under the guise of philosophical, pathological, educational, or some other study. As before, if the following helps just one individual achieve a profound understanding of who and what he is, the purpose has been served.

Best results appear to be obtained if one is in a relaxed state and isolated. It is important to remain completely awake physically, with your left-brain consciousness in the driver’s seat. Then simply think of the ident—the subject of the rote—and wait. You can write down notes or dictate into a tape recorder as you attempt to convert the information into written or spoken words.
