Re: [BardonPraxis] Memories of Fanz Bardon

[Paul Condran <paulcondran@...>]

I have read this book and I enjoyed it very much, you get to see how he
lived the things he teaches, how he even made mistakes at times, and
acted very human! I agree with what you said about him living an adepts
life. I always feel inspired after I read it.

A cemetary sounds like a nice place to do evocations. I've always
thought it would be nice to find an old sandstone church to do
evocations in too. :)
