Just don't make trance harder than it is to achieve. You don't need to worry about 21 different levels of 'trance', because it will cause it to be much more complex. The easiest way to achieve a full-trance state is FOCUS/CONCENTRATION. What is FOCUS/CONCENTRATION? Let's pretend you were looking at a physical object (an apple). When you look at it you see it's textures, colors, density, flaws and blemishes. That is FOCUS/CONCENTRATION. When you are trying to obtain a level of trance you must FOCUS YOUR MIND 100% and not let it stray on random thoughts. This is easier said than done, but you have to remember a few IMPORTANT details. STAY IN REALITY! By this I mean, when you lie down/sit down in your chair/bed you MUST MENTALLY STAY AWARE that you are in your bedroom and feel the room around you. Don't drift your thoughts toward sleep, because you will head AWAY from the conscious trance state. TRANCE is FOCUS. You must keep relaxing and relaxing, yet keep your mental focus of the room around you. There are two easy ways to achieve trance.......
1. Afer you close your eyes, slightly cross them and create a point of focus within the blackness behind your eyelids. Keep the point of focus about a 1-3 feet in front of the black void behind closed eyes. This will keep you mentally focused and remaining mentally alert and aware of the room around you without slipping into random thoughts and drifting.
2. Sometimes #1 isn't enough and you need more, so after you close your eyes imagine an object (your favorite that you know well) about 3 feet in front of your closed eyelids and 'feel' it behind there in reality. This will help you keep the focus you are looking for to achieve the trance state.
Remember that when in trance you are one step up from the physcial body and one step down from the atral. Don't make trance out to be a mystical enlightenment. Trance is VERY close to the physcial world. Keep that in mind. This is why it's necessary to KEEP your FOCUS close to reality and the room you are in.
Again, just remember that the trance state isn't some magical state that you have to 'fight' your way to get into. It's natural, but FOCUS will get you there and not stray thoughts. If you haven't been there before and aren't familiar with the sensations and aren't sure if you obtained it, then you most likely didn't get there or achieved only a very light level. When you enter a full-trance, YOU'LL KNOW IT! Everything changes and you will KNOW something very peculiar is happening to you. The room around you will change and you will feel like a speck within a gigantic void of blackness. Everything gets QUIET and you HAVE 100% FOCUS and mental awareness of the room around you, in a expanded state of awareness.
FOCUS, FOCUS, FOCUS.........
