These additions to your Practice are also Essential Metaphors. They are visualized devices and important tools you may use to explore and work within the Unknown Reality. For example, you may use your creativity to create, in the Trance State, various modes of transportation to use in your experiments in consciousness. Or you may summon up a diagnostic tool of your own device, that you may use to test, to validate, to sharpen the manifestation.

As with the Trance State, I am assuming you are already a user of the Metaphorical Tools. You may not refer to them as such, but it does seem that most explorers have a strategy, a Technique, a way of going about preparing for and indeed, entering and studying the individual and collective consciousness.
