Theosophy and Advaita Vedanta are affirmations, like saying ‘these are the facts and this is a roadmap’. However, the map is not the terrain. Thus, far better are teachings which prompt us how to actually explore the ethereal. Hence Buddhist contemplations or Tantra practices seem more relevant. Of course, it depends upon individual inclination.

Silence is the best teacher, in my view. Meditation. However, this too is subject to hectic debate, some say watch the breath, others say visualise a this or that thing, some advocate chanting mantras but very few talk about simply resting in a continuum of thought cessation, without any agenda, receptive and unresistant to whatever appears (or does not).
