Do I have to enter tgs for this whole thing @Lady_Eva
Itâs best to use the method given for now, of imagining the spiritâs form, and watching for any changes, you may get a less intense experience BUT you will begin to enter the correct state over time.
I never learned TGS, because I started a long time ago, and this method is a very condensed explanation of how I learned evocation of spirits as a child.

Personally Iâm starting to visualize Belial (in order to, maybe, proceed with the other 8 Gatekeepers) in front of me, but for now outside of evocation⊠At the moment Iâm strengthening the contact with him by repeating name, enn etc., the whole âthingâ indeed feels right

@Lady_Eva great post quite helpful and with lots of adaptability. However the part that intruiged me most, was the reference to the banishing / cleansing, and how it was done, Iâm very used to using tools for cleansing (shamanâs stick, herbs, oils,) and preventative measures (charms, spells, salts etc) but I presume since you are visualising the ball of light youâd be using your energy for that. Which makes me wonder will this be effective for everyone, particularly for those that donât have much experience in energy manipulation, or much control over their own energy fields? Iâm also curious about what (if any) effect would a personâs own energy have on this? Is it more powerful for white witches? Is it less powerful if your energy is exceedingly negative? All in all wonderful post, and Iâd really appreciate any answers to my curiosity TY!

The âbanishingâ in this is within
say âI thank you, (spiritâs name), now depart in peaceâ 3 times"
clap your hands once, and bow your head
when you look back up, visualise the spiritâs shape turning away and walking away, or going through a door to leave you
clap your hands again and visualise all the energy clearing and the room becoming lighter
It draws more upon the far older shamanistic concept of the universe as teeming with spirits, some benevolent, some malevolent, but most just pursuing their own agendas and willing, on occasion, to work with people on matters of shared interest.
I use this model because I have consistantly found it to be accurate, and effective. 
Banishing, as in, casting out a being through use of purifying herbs, names of power, even prayer, is not a necessary default action during each and every evocation.
That it has become so comes from the dangerously warped tradition on which all things except the minor tribal deity of a small group of middle eastern people is considered to be evil, and only their deity (which does itself concede that other gods exist and have power) is treated as though it were somehow the real, ultimate, final, being, also filled with love and benevolence for all other people in the world (a concept disproven by numerous genocidal and racially-supremacist verses in the original texts, including Numbers 22 â 24).
I would therefore no more banish an entity by these extreme measures, than I would disinfect everything in the house after inviting in some new person, a meter reader or neighbour, whom I have never met before. Only if their boots were exceptionally dirty (a metaphor for a feeling of very heavy or dark energy left by the spirit) would I clean up to the amount necessary.
The âdirty bootsâ in this case could stem from different dimensional energies, which are not in themselves of a moral nature per se, or more likely, the centuries of accretion of misguided hate, dread, and the repeated calling of these beings to fulfil only malevolent and guilt-inducing desires.
Because of that, the ball of white light is intended more as a way to lift the energy and remove any residual effects the magician observes, rather than to cast out an unwilling spirit which is trying to wreck the life of the magician.
This weird concept of spirits (many of whom, like Buné, are actually ancient deities) as being auotmatically evil, is, in itself, a source of problems, both for man and spirit, in the same way that if someone treats you with contempt and suspicion, and constantly accuses you, namecalls you, etc., they will not see the better side of your personality.
Given the power of belief and the practical metaphysics of that, in creating the framework which the spirit uses as their interface to this reality, this deep-seated belief spirits are all dirty and must be thoroughly expunged is even more likely to lead to negative experiences, than omitting it completely and simply requesting that they depart in peace, and visualising them leaving.
A spirit called under this model of evocation is entering, right from the start, on a very different basis to one summoned using grimoire trad. methods.
There are too many variables to nail down, but I did state that people can combine this method with any book theyâre working with that gives specific rules, and also, any methods they have previously used.
So, if someone comes from a white-light background and feels the energy is still heavy and dark, they can use their previous skills to lift that, or if they are a very ânegativeâ person they may choose to use anger to boost a feeling of command, and dispel any unwanted energy that way.

I quite appreciate this, thank you and It has been a process of unlearning much of what I was âtaughtâ first coming into all of this. Iâm definitely slowly but surely learning that all things have a place. And as I continue to explore many kinds of magik, the understanding that what is generally considered to be evil and whatâs good is quite a biased way of thinking and seems to vary person to person.
This is actually news to me. I was taught to always cleanse my tools and my area, after any encounter with any spirit. But the more I recall about that conversation with my teacher, I believe he was actually referencing that for his healing tools and the area he performed the healings in. And as a kid I misconstrued the meaning there. XD so yeah thank you!

It is taught quite a lot in white-light healing paradigms, but the same people who teach this often also teach that âWe are all spiritual beings having a physical experienceâ! 
That makes sense: as a parallel, rats are not evil as such, but if you had a load of feral rats in one location, there is a risk of disease, the same is true of some kinds of energy, and entities, that is their natural effect and ambience, so cleansing makes sense when removing things that have made someone ill.

You can do this without opening your third eye, chakras, etc??
Yes, do not worry about that.
Psychic vision and power is like building muscles: you can build muscles first, then start to lift weights (do evocation), or, you can start to lift weights, and by doing this, build the same muscles.
If you find thrid eye and chakras exercises that you like and can do, then do them, but practice of magick, alone, will make you stronger.

I heard some spirits donât like being dismissed in a way that sounds as if theyâre being commanded to leave. For example, âThat is all, thank you, you now may leave.â What might be a good substitute for dismissing someone that doesnât sound demanding? Like, âI ask that you leaveâ?

why specifically the right/left hand?

Yes, most people are right handed and find that the simplest way to work, and I was trying to not add too many âif/butâ aspects.

oh, ok. i didnt realize it was interchangeable i thought it was for some mystical reason like your chakra flows from left to right so you use your right hand to ârelease energyâ or something, i dont know⊠lol

So can we evoke angel with this method?
Yes, just change the form you visualise from demonic to angelic, use whatever archetypal image you have for an angel instead of a demonic form.

Ok thanks, but is it must to have candle and if yes what candle we use?
Not necessary if you CANNOT get a candle, but if you can, use balck (best, usually), red (2nd best) or whoite (3rd best).
White tealights are okay.
But if you need to do this and cannot get or use a candle, do it without. The spirit will still see and hear you. It may be good to use a corner for the evocation, if you cannot use any cnadle or tealights.
Flame is a gateway, but not the only one.
