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.

great stuff ... i've got to dig out a book i have that focused on some of sir francis bacon thoughts ... it had some relational information of the casual+acasual and polarity (most of which seemed to be echoed in what you all have already presented) ... i remember from a book i read in the library (because it could not be checked out) one afternoon about the that relationship and the context of the oval ... which embodied that symbol you first presented ... from pre-causian and then through into hinduism. and yes, it was related to interdimensional travel and access.

boy, i sure wish i was more meticulous about resources and keeping track of what i learned and from where ... anyway ... maybe i can stir up someone else's memories ... until i find that jennings book, i will be googling as well on what i am recalling.

I have had many whims which have later turned into great theories which correlate with the Causal and Acausal universes. I am coming to the logical assumption that the Gods of the acausal may be of distinct alien energy then we are. To attain connection with the Acausal may be of rabid techniques. By my research the Gods of the Acausal have chosen to efface the Gods of the Causal, and likewise, but it's unlikely it will happen as we have the yin-yang factor. I am in hopes of gaining more profound knowledge of these distinctly different universes and the life which dwells within them. Many have claimed the possibility of becoming a denizon in the Acausal all together, which could be a case. Another reason I am concerned is that I feel callings from the Acausal Gods, though they oddly sound benign to me, they are malicious to many; this has been elicit to me, and I have pursued the meaning of this distinctly alien universe to perhaps better understand "life" in general, and these Gods who seem to call on some of us.
