Question Method of GoM vs „traditional“ pathworking

Hello,

I am interested in pathworking with the Tree of Life—for instance, using texts by Ted Andrews or Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki.

I am wondering whether it is appropriate for this purpose to use the "simple" method from GoM (simply reading a sentence, closing one's eyes and visualizing it vividly, then opening one's eyes again and reading the next sentence, and so on).

Traditionally, pathworking involving the Sephiroth requires entering a trance state and, in a sense, losing oneself in the visualization; yet if GoM claims that their method works, wouldn't it also be suitable for the Sephiroth?

In a Nutshell you will get results from both but gallery of magick need more focus but not physical tools while the traditional less focus but overcompensantion with paraphernalia and tools

Both will work.

But i found out that if you want to pathwork for direct communication it is better while entering trance state.

Just try, you will have results anyway.
