    The exercise i speak of is mentally focussing on someone and allowing images to arise concerning them and their situation i.e. mind reading/psychical reading.

    Is it useful in any way for magickal advancement or is it dangerous because one is blanking one's mind and opening up the mind to lower entities? If that's the case should the LRBP be done beforehand? Any advice?

    While it might be useful as a psychic practice, it is much more useful as a way of bringing to mind your own projections about them, as well as a concurrent practice in the process of witnessing your thoughts.

    It's probably most useful to regard what you get as meaningful more than as "true." It might be true, but that's a separate issue. It's certainly going to be useful to realize that what you see, no matter how true, is actually much more about you than about the other person.

    "Is it useful in any way for magical advancement or is it dangerous because one is blanking one's mind and opening up the mind to lower entities? If that's the case should the LRBP be done beforehand? Any advice?"

    Do a pentagram ritual first and don't worry about it. (PS - If you are truly blanking your mind, then that is truly a high accomplishment! I suspect that, instead, you are simply "zoning.")
