Confusion About "double-spiral Travel"... Options

I was reading somewhere in a book of eastern traditions I have, and I came upon a meditation which is meant to enable access to other worlds.

The are two possible problems with this:

1. I have no idea how to go about doing this exercise as it is new to me.
2. I am not sure if the author has inscripted everything in detail.

I typed the meditation and found a picture of a spiral which I will add below.

Visiting other worlds:

This procedure comes from an old Celtic tradition for getting to the otherworld.

Exercise:

Sit in a comfortable position and place a piece of paper in front of you with the picture of the double spiral on it. Devote your full attention to it for a few minutes, and then close your eyes and focus inwardly on the starting point in the center of the right-rotating spiral. Now, consciously transport yourself to this point and begin following the spiral to the right, step-by-step. After making some turns, you will reach a point at which the energy changes. On the energetic level, this point is customarily protected by two guards who will not let every traveler pass. If entrance is denied, you must turn back immediately.

If passage is granted, follow the left-rotating spiral into the center. The area surrounding the center point is at first clad in thick swathes of fog that only lighten after you reach the center point. There, a completely different world opens up. The term “otherworld” does not denote a specific place, but is rather a collective term for all reachable parallel dimensions that exist in our world in different times nad vibration levels. If you meet other beings in this place, approach them with respect. If orders or prohibitions are issued, follow them without exception.

In order to end the visit to the otherworld, return via the same route that took you there. Again start in the center of the left-rotating spiral and follow its windings out clockwise. At the turning point between the two spirals, turn left to enter the counter-clockwise spiral. When you reach the center and your consciousness is again in the here and now, you can conclude the meditation. Open your eyes and stretch in order to feel your body again.

Has anyone had an experience with such a travel? Or does anyone understand the magick/method behind the double-spiral which enables travel?

The description was just a bit vague for my taste.

You delve in places that are dangerous ground. This in a way is like me going in for the hardest most complicated summoning in the necronomicon. Ok if you decide to follow dreaming and astral experiances like these just make sure that you make no deals of any kind with anyone or thing once you have been able to utilize this. The celts (my origins are from here so its a bit easyier but also more dangerous for me).
The reasons for travel in this case is because energy even though it looks to be conical is actually a spiral. When you awaken the third eye can see that energy spins in both directions and can take you anywhere. All you are doing when following this celtic spiral is "meditationg"your way to a obe or ld depending on the outcome. As you use this you will find it pops up more and more in dreams and in practice. The symbol is actually just a focus more like a wand or a crystal. The true power (as in everything pretty much) comes from you.
use this practice with visualization and sending this energetic symbol directly into your third eye. If you combine your aura and focus your Ajna chakra to this symbol while in the correct state you will travel. Any issues let me know. Also let me know where you are the first time it works. Ill be very curious to know.
