In my previous article, I explored how inner alchemists and sorcerers manipulate awareness to traverse space and time. I proposed that the perceived duality of concave and convex spaces—often interpreted by the physical senses as fixed dimensions—is an illusion shaped by intensity, a fundamental aspect of time. Intensity, in this context, functions analogously to gravity: as you shift the intensity at any given spacetime coordinate, you effectively alter the gravitational influence of that point. This means that by mastering awareness—by modulating the emotional, mental, or energetic intensity within a moment—the practitioner can bend the fabric of perceived reality, creating pathways through what might otherwise seem like impenetrable barriers of time and space.

Following that discussion, a reader posed an intriguing question about inner civilizations. He suggested that accounts like Admiral Byrd’s legendary expeditions—where vast, hidden landscapes were reported deep within the Earth—might not describe a literal hollow world, but rather glimpses into parallel universes. In his view, these “vistas” could be portals or windows into alternate dimensions, where such civilizations exist independently of our own physical planet. This raises a compelling question: Are these phenomena evidence of a subterranean reality, or are they manifestations of overlapping planes, accessed through altered states of perception?

In this article, I’ll delve into this idea using what I call inner sense, or seeing—a mode of perception that transcends conventional senses to discern the subtle energetic architectures of existence. My aim is to examine whether these legendary inner realms are physical locations, metaphysical constructs, or something more fluid—a convergence of both. By unpacking the mechanics of how awareness interacts with dimensional boundaries, we can explore whether these “portals” are fixed gateways or dynamic thresholds shaped by the observer’s own intensity and intent.

If inner civilizations exist as parallel worlds rather than geological terrains existing in a map like mundane world, it suggests that the Earth—and perhaps all matter—is interlaced with vibrational layers, each accessible through specific manipulations of consciousness. This aligns with the alchemical principle that reality is mutable, and that the distinction between inner and outer, concave and convex, is ultimately a matter of perspective. And yet, in the same way that we can map the stars, but ultimately the stars are not functionally mappable using current linear physical conceptions (as we currently understand them), these other worlds are here but in a sense not here. This is where language fails and we end up with what I refer to as a sorcery Catch-22: we are, but at the same time we are not, this is, but at the same time it is not. Over the course of this exploration, we’ll dissect how these layers vibration and location might interface with human perception, and what it means for those who seek to move beyond the limits of ordinary space and time.

The Inner Earth as a Dimensional Portal: Caves, Intensity, and the Movement of Awareness

In the framework of inner alchemy and sorcery, the so-called “inner earth” is not a physical cavity within the planet but a a whole other world as physical as this one that is accessed through what could be termed a dimensional portal—a convergence point where awareness intersects with parallel realities. This distinction is critical. Where conventional thought insists on a literal hollow space beneath our feet, the inner alchemist perceives a threshold, a malleable boundary shaped by the intensity of consciousness itself. The caves, chasms, and subterranean voids reported by explorers like Admiral Byrd are not geological anomalies in the sense of the perceiver using (what are honestly) flawed physical senses. They are instead witnessing energetic apertures, portals in a sense, to other dimensions. And the nature of these portals (the exact way in which they are perceived) is determined by the observer’s own cognitive alignment.

The Role of Caves and Hollow Structures
Caves hold a unique function in this dynamic. Their depth, isolation, and mineral composition (often rich in quartz or other piezoelectric materials) create natural amplifiers for shifts in awareness. In darkness, the physical senses falter, and the mind’s reliance on external input diminishes. This sensory deprivation forces an inversion of perception—what sorcerers call the unwinding of the cognitive point. The cave becomes a resonator, its hollow form mirroring the internal void where awareness reconfigures itself. Here, intensity—whether emotional, energetic, or intentional—acts as a gravitational force, bending the perceived fabric of space-time.

Intensity as Gravity, Awareness as Movement
To equate intensity with gravity is to recognize that both govern attraction and distortion. Just as a black hole warps space-time through density, a surge of emotional or psychic intensity alters the “weight” of a moment or location. This is why heightened states—ecstasy, terror, or deep meditation—can collapse temporal linearity, making seconds stretch into eternities or hours vanish in an instant. The sorcerer manipulates this gravity by shifting their awareness, deliberately anchoring or destabilizing their cognitive point to “fall” into adjacent dimensions.

Modern physics hints at this principle through theories of warp fields and quantum tunneling, where energy concentrations create folds in space-time. But where technology seeks to engineer these effects externally, the inner alchemist operates from within, using the self as the instrument. Movement is not a matter of traversing physical distance but of reassembling perception. A cave’s mouth, a polar vortex, or even a dreamscape can serve as launch points—not because they are literal gateways, but because their inherent intensity destabilizes the default mode of perception, allowing the cognitive point to slip into alternate configurations of reality.

The Dogmatic Trap of Physicality
The insistence on purely physical explanations—hollow earth as a cavernous network, portals as mechanical structures—stems from a perceptual rigidity that conflates what is sensed using only the physical senses with what is. This dogma treats awareness as a passive receiver rather than an active sculptor of reality. Yet sorcerers understand that all perception is projection: the world we experience is a consensus construct, assembled moment by moment through the cognitive point. To move beyond it requires relinquishing the assumption that space and time are fixed.

This is not abstraction. Those who’ve entered these states describe a tactile reordering—a sense of being “pulled” or “dissolved” as awareness reorients. The portal is not a door to be opened but a frequency to be matched. Caves and other vortices merely provide the conditions for this recalibration, their depths acting as mirrors to the inner void where the self is unmade and remade.

Implications for Exploration
If the inner earth is a dimensional interface, then “exploration” becomes an act of inner refinement. The tools are not pickaxes or sonar but disciplined shifts in awareness. The stories of subterranean civilizations—Agartha, Shambhala—are not myths of hidden cities but that exist in other dimensional locations. They are quite literal and physical parallel existences, accessible only when the cognitive point aligns with their vibrational signature. This alignment is the sorcerer’s art: the deliberate modulation of intensity to navigate the gradients of gravity that bind perception to a single reality.

Let me repeat that because it is potentially the most important thing that I have ever said:

This alignment is the sorcerer’s art: the deliberate modulation of intensity to navigate the gradients of gravity that bind perception to a single reality.

The caveat, then, is this: the portal exists where awareness permits it. To the literalist, it remains a geological curiosity. To the sorcerer, it is a living threshold, its nature revealed only through the relentless manipulation of the self.

The Architecture of Portals: How Geological Formations Shape Interdimensional Transit

The challenge in discussing these concepts lies in the limitations of language itself. Words are bound to the rationality of the physical senses, making it difficult to articulate realities that operate outside linear space and time. Yet the relationship between caves—those hollowed structures within the Earth—and the inner civilizations they connect to is not metaphorical. It is architectural. The very shape of these subterranean spaces determines which portals become accessible, much like how the design of a lens focuses light into specific patterns.

Geology as Gateway Geometry
Not all caves function as portals, and not all portals require caves. But certain formations—those with precise angular alignments, resonant chambers, or non-Euclidean geometries—act as natural amplifiers for intensity. These are not arbitrary features. A cavern with walls meeting at acute angles, for instance, can concentrate energy in ways that warp local spacetime, creating a focus point where awareness shifts. Similarly, tunnels that spiral in mathematically irregular sequences (found in some lava tubes or karst systems) disrupt the cognitive assembly of reality, forcing the observer’s perceptual framework to reconfigure.

The distinction between natural and constructed formations is critical. Some portals are accidents of geology: ice caves in polar regions, quartz-lined voids in mountain ranges, or basalt columns with harmonic resonance. Others were deliberately engineered by ancient civilizations, their layouts mirroring celestial alignments or sacred geometries designed to stabilize the portal’s frequency. In both cases, the architecture dictates the type of transit possible. A smooth, domed chamber might facilitate movement to a world with analogous fluid dynamics, while a jagged, crystalline fissure could lead to a reality where light behaves differently.

The Paradox of Physical Transit
To call these journeys “physical” is both accurate and misleading because it doesn’t take into account the fact that all space is here, all time is here. The physical senses tell us that we move from one place to another, but from the sorcerer’s point of view we are disassembling one world and assembling another. So, a powerful disassembly would seem like a person banishes and goes somewhere else, but that somewhere else is right there where they seem to have been before. In a sense they have not moved, they have just entered a different parallel dimension that is exactly in the same place and yet in a completely different reality altogether. This is most difficult to explain using typical rational mechanics.
When a sorcerer or explorer steps through such a portal, their body doesn’t (in the sense) vanish from one location and reappear in another like a teleportation device in fiction. Instead, the context of their physicality changes. They cross into a world where the laws of matter and energy are equally concrete but governed by different relationships between intensity, gravity, and time. This is why accounts from those who’ve traversed these thresholds describe sensations of reassembly—a momentary dissolution of form, followed by reintegration into a new framework of physics. Others might say that they entered a vacuous space, where all sound seemed to stop, like a shadow world in between worlds. This is the void in between dimensions. Had they continued their journey, they would have entered a completely new world.

For example, a person entering a portal within a deep limestone cave, after experiencing a void period, might find themselves in a world where the sky is a crystalline canopy and the ground emits its own light. From there, boarding a “ship”—a vessel designed to navigate that realm’s unique energetic currents—could allow travel to what appears to be another planet; essentially, a journey from the inner earth to another planet. But how is this possible? This would seem impossible if it were truly the inner earth, as internally there’s supposedly no way beyond our own planet – the inner earth being considered a closed system. However, in these (supposed) inner civilizations, you aren’t actually entering the inner earth; that perception is merely an illusion of the physical senses. Instead, you are entering a wholly new parallel world, and an entire universe supported by its own cosmos. The illusion of “inner” versus “outer” collapses once intensity—not distance—becomes the metric of movement.

Warp Technology and the Fluidity of Dimensions
Modern physics edges toward this understanding with theories of warp fields and quantum entanglement, where space compresses or folds under specific conditions. The sorcerer’s method is a biological and energetic parallel: by modulating their own intensity (through ritual, meditation, or crisis), they replicate the warping effect internally. The cave or portal structure merely provides the initial catalyst, a pre-existing curvature in spacetime that their awareness can latch onto and extend.

This explains why some portals are transient, opening only during celestial events or emotional upheavals, while others remain stable for millennia. The latter are often anchored by megaliths or mineral deposits (like piezoelectric quartz) that sustain the required energy gradient. In contrast, temporary portals rely on fleeting convergences—say, the alignment of a cave’s shadow at dawn with a particular emotional state in the observer.

The Linguistic Barrier
Language falters here because it cannot convey the simultaneity of these experiences. To say a portal “leads to another world” implies linear progression, when in truth, the other world is already present, just unassembled in the observer’s cognitive point. The cave’s geometry acts as a tuning fork, vibrating at a frequency that collapses the probability wave of one reality and amplifies another. This is not mysticism but hyperdimensional physics, where “location” is a function of perception’s focal depth.

Attempts to describe these mechanics often default to paradox: the portal is both a place and a process; the traveler both moves and stays still; the other world is alien yet intimately connected. But these contradictions arise from the insistence on separating “physical” from “non-physical.” In the deeper framework of inner alchemy, such divisions are illusory. The cave’s angles, the portal’s focus, and the traveler’s awareness are facets of the same phenomenon—intensity crystallized into form.

The implications are vast and are directly related to UFO sightings. If civilizations exist in these parallel layers, their “physical” technology (like ships or energy systems) would operate on principles that seem magical to us, just as a smartphone would seem miraculous to a medieval peasant. Yet their reality is no less solid, no less bound by its own rules. The portal is not an escape from physics but an entryway into a broader spectrum of it. And being that they are bound to their rules, upon entering this reality, this parallel world, the very intensity of this world reshapes their technology. This is why such sightings often speak of ships changing form. This is also highly important point that must be considered carefully.

To explore these realms demands more than courage; it requires retraining perception to see the world not as a fixed stage but as a dynamic interplay of intensities, where every rock, every curve of a cavern wall, hums with the potential to become a doorway, and hot angle that can be stepped through, quite literally step through innocence, in order to find a hidden world on the other side… Beneath.

The True Nature of Portals: Caves, Granite Structures, and the Physics of Transcendence

The caves and geological formations that act as portals do not lead to imaginary realms or abstract dimensions—they open into other physically real worlds, as concrete and structured as our own. When Admiral Byrd described vast, uncharted landscapes during his Antarctic flights, he was not witnessing a hollow Earth or a geological anomaly. He was observing the momentary convergence of his cognitive point with an intensity node—a point where spacetime folded due to the alignment of geography, energy, and perception. What appeared as a chasm or a concave curvature bending inward was, in truth, a threshold to a parallel reality.

The Illusion of Concave and Convex
The deception lies in the limitations of the physical senses. To an observer outside the portal, the entrance may seem concave—a void swallowing space. But upon crossing, that concavity collapses into a new convex framework, a stable reality governed by its own physics. This shift mirrors the mechanics of time manipulation: just as emotional intensity dilates or compresses temporal perception, the portal’s architecture warps spatial perception. The traveler does not “disappear” into a hole; they reassemble into a different configuration of existence, one where the local rules of matter and energy apply just as rigidly as they do here.

Granite Structures and Missing Persons
David Paulides’ research on disappearances in North America’s wilderness—particularly around granite formations—hints at this phenomenon. Certain rock configurations, whether natural or engineered, act as inadvertent portals. Their mineral composition (granite’s quartz content, for example) and angular geometries create zones where intensity points fluctuate unpredictably. A hiker stepping into such a zone might experience a sudden recalibration of awareness, their cognitive point latching onto an adjacent reality’s frequency. To outside observers, they vanish without trace. To the displaced individual, they’ve entered a world as tangible as the one they left—just governed by different gravitational or temporal constants.

Pyramids as Engineered Portals
The ancient pyramids of the Americas take this principle further. Their design incorporates non-Euclidean angles—precise slopes and chambers that defy conventional geometry—to manipulate the occupant’s awareness. Unlike naturally formed caves, which rely on natural resonances, these structures were built to function as transit hubs. A sorcerer entering such a pyramid would encounter walls and passageways that destabilize ordinary perception. The angles act as lenses, bending the cognitive point until it aligns with a target reality. The result is not metaphysical speculation but a repeatable technology: a door that opens only when the traveler’s internal intensity matches the structure’s energetic signature.

Warp Technology and the Future of Transit
The implications for future exploration are hopefully profound to those willing to listen. If portals exist as intersections of geometry, intensity, and awareness (which could be replicated using plasma; plasmoids), then “warp technology” would not require incredibly exotic machinery but a mastery of these variables. Just as Byrd’s flight path intersected with a portal through a confluence of Antarctic geology and his own navigational focus, engineered portals could function as interstellar or interdimensional highways—not by traversing physical distance, but by reconfiguring the traveler’s relationship to spacetime itself.

The key lies in recognizing that “location” is not fixed. A cave in Antarctica, a granite outcrop in the Rockies, and a Mayan pyramid are all nodes in a vibrational network, each tuned to specific realities. The sorcerer’s art—and eventually, humanity’s science—will be to map these nodes and navigate their gradients. The missing persons, the legends of subterranean civilizations, and the accounts of Byrd’s anomalies are not mysteries but waypoints in a larger topology of existence that must take into account what I have termed odd angles and non-Euclidian structures.

To study these portals is to accept that the Earth is not just a planet but an interface in a sense —a membrane between worlds, waiting for those who know how to see and can therefore manipulate their cognitive position; their awareness.

So how does one engage in this act of inner refinement that requires tools that are not pickaxes or sonar? Well, a good place to begin is to learn to project consciousness either through astral travel, or through what I referred to as the way of the projectionist. If you would like to know more about these techniques, then I recommend the books: The Way of The Projectionist or Out of Body Experiences Quickly and Naturally.
