something, and not towards going through rituals in pursuit of some vague goal. In order to achieve something, the practitioner now simply wills it. It is obtained without any other actions. There is no longer any point to most of the techniques, which only become necessary in special cases when they are the only way to achieve a result in difficult situations. INDIRECT TECHNIQUES When at a high level of practice, a phaser is not surprised by the phase itself (as is the case at other levels). The only surprise comes from unsuccessful attempts when he is unable to enter it. This is especially true regarding indirect techniques. Three key factors lead to such a success rate. If techniques performed upon awakening do not work due to an aggressive approach, this is always remedied by correct use of forced falling asleep in parallel to the techniques. They always start to work, and so choice of technique is not important here. And if a technique has started working upon awakening, then that's a clear sign of a deep phase. That is, working techniques are markers of the phase. Many experienced practitioners immediately begin to use forced falling asleep in parallel with performing the indirect techniques, which is why they are either immediately able to exit the body, or the first technique that they use works. An experienced phaser does not perform indirect techniques in order to obtain the right state. He moves directly towards that state, and might perform some technique in order to control his conscious mind. The task is to obtain the right state - a certain physiological process upon awakening. And if that state's already there, and if that state is already quite familiar, then it only remains to go for it! That's the whole secret. It's almost impossible to describe how it feels in words, yet many do it intuitively in practice. It's usually more a combination of recollection of the state, forced falling asleep, and an intense desire to enter the phase
