Sleep of Shiloam...
-
Unfortunately I don't have access to the publication at this moment and I must first apologize for that... however I was reading in Jim's book The Mystical and Magickal System of the A.A. How one specific individual received KCHGA in their sleep, when and where can specifics about this adept and possibly others who have had the same conversation with the HGA be found? And more quite possibly about the individual that was mentioned in Jim's book...again I apologize for not remembering that specific passage..

Phyllis Seckler (Soror Meral) was awakened from sleep by her first full-blown experience of K&C. (By full=blown I mean with noisy paraphenomena: She'd had various levels of guidance and communion earlier.)
There aren't a lot of details. Even having conversations with her about it on and off over about 25 years, there aren't a lot of details. Is as there something specific you want to know?

Just curious as if there maybe testimonies about this phenonemon and where I might be able to locate them. And what, if anything Master Therion may have addressed about it as well.

Nothing I can think of in print.
Or do you mean about the HGA experience in general? AC's commentary to Liber Samekh is a wonderful classic on the point, from a straightforward perspective. His commentary on Liber LXV is its companion from a symbolic point of view.
Have you seen "The Magical Record of Brother Proserpinus" in my book Pearls of Wisdom?

No so, just the phenomena of the Sleep of Shiloam not KHGA. Getting Pearls of Wisdom really soon...Thank you..

Ah, I see. Sleep of Siloam has nothing to do per se with what happens while you sleep.

I met my HGA in sleep.
I had a series of paranormal experiences leading up to the most
Powerful kundalini experience of my entire life. Afterwards, I fell asleep and a being introduced himself and led me
Through a series of Socratic questioning.2 weeks later I came across a book in a used book store about spirit guides. I had studied the concept before but hadn't paid it much attention. That night I felt gripped by the concept and performed an impromptu ritual on my lanai (I was vacationing in Hawaii). I went to bed and fell asleep. I was awoken by the gentle shaking of my arm and sat up to behold a Sufi type being with blazing red eyes. I looked around at my sleeping family, astonished. He leaned in and said "the secret is in symmetry" and waved his hand across my face. There was an explosion of knowledge, stars, unfathomable beauty and I was again taken into a dream type setting where he began to instruct
Me and informed me he was my "inner Imam". He gave me his name and said someday he would give me the second portion of his name. His first name in gematria = 246. 3 years later he gave me his second which = 753 for a total of 999. Just sharing they because the cohesion and beauty of the experience further confirmed certain beliefs and experiences. Oh yeah , three months later I discovered Crowley and it really helped me understand what I was going through. Hope this adds to the conversation.Typed on an iPhone so excuse the types
