Adventures Beyond the Body

[another bob]

Greetings, Friends!

I was recently introduced to a wonderful book entitled "Adventures Beyond the Body", by William Buhlman, and in turn I highly recommend it to the members here. It's much more than a handbook on Out-of-Body experiences, and could prove to be a life-changer for those who are willing to delve into it.

I've copied out an excerpt to share with you that I feel will give some indication of why I say this:


Journal Entry, Oct. 24, 1992

I repeat my favorite affirmation aloud for five or ten minutes: “Now I'm out-of-body." As I drift off, I intensify the affirmations in my mind. I awaken to the sensations of strong vibrations surging through my body. Immediately I focus my full attention on the idea of floating to my bedroom door. Within seconds I feel myself lift and float to the door. Then, with a sense of exhilaration, I walk through the door and into the living room. As I look around, I realize I'm in my first (densest) energy-body and have a sudden overwhelming urge to explore. Almost shouting, I verbally make a firm request, "I want to see more." Instantly, a sensation of rapid motion draws me inward. I feel as if I'm being drawn into a vacuum, and in seconds I'm in a new environment. I'm startled and blinded by the intensity of the surrounding light. When I instinctually attempt to shield myself from the radiation, I realize that my body is without form -- no arms, or legs, just energy. I try to comprehend that I have no shape whatsoever. I seem like light without a distinctive outer form. My vision is endless.

All around, pure energy emanates; there are no shapes or forms, just radiation of light. I'm drawn to what appears to be a column of pure white light. As I move closer to the light, the sheer power of its radiation is overpowering. I stop and try to adjust. The energy is so intense it feels like the outer parts of me are being burned away. My entire outer self -- my thoughts, fears, and concepts -- is being incinerated by the light. At first, I try to shield myself. I surround myself with thoughts only to realize that they too are being burned away by the intensity of the light. Unsure of what to do, I instinctively release and surrender myself to the light. At that moment, the light enters me like a warm liquid permeating my body and mind. My entire being is filled with light, and every part of me seems to resonate at a new frequency. I relax and enjoy the sensation of pure energy flowing through me.

Deep within, I realize that something of extreme importance is before me. There is something else within the column of light. No longer afraid, I have an overpowering desire to know and understand the light. I move closer and try to peer inside. The pure energy and power are beyond words. I feel like I'm standing next to a blazing white sun that radiates waves of light. Somehow I know that I'm safe, and I slowly move forward and touch the light. An intense surge of energy flows through my entire being. I'm suddenly immersed in an ocean of pure knowledge. I'm flooded with memories of all I've been, all I've done, all I am. Everything is now. I'm overwhelmed by the absolute simplicity of it all. For the first time, everything is clear. Everything we need and are is already here. For the first time, I realize that we have separated ourselves from our source. How foolish we are. We focus on decaying molecular forms when true reality is always here, patiently waiting for us to open our eyes and see. An overpowering feeling of love, a deep feeling of compassion for everything that is, permeates my being. I realize that we are all interconnected in an ocean of living light. The separateness we feel is but the dense illusion of molecular form. My awareness comes alive with the realization that my mind and its capabilities are but another temporary vehicle of expression. We exist beyond thought, beyond linear cause and effect.

I'm overwhelmed by endless waves of pure knowledge. My mind is filled beyond its limits, and I realize that this is more than I could ever hope to remember. I scream out, "I will remember this." Instantly I'm snapped back to my body and attempt to open my eyes.

I'm unable to move and realize that I'm in a cataleptic state. Slowly, I can feel a numbness and tingling spread through my physical body. After about a minute, I can move my fingers and toes. I lie still and review the experience with a feeling of awe. I absolutely know that the column of light was really me -- not just another part of me, but the pure me, the very essence of all that I am. Is it possible that we really are that incredible? Now I feel separated and alone; yet, at the same time, I feel connected to something far greater than I've ever imagined. My mind races with realizations, more than I can begin to comprehend.

I now recognize that we as human beings have a natural tendency to attach labels to everything we experience and to filter it according to our physical concepts and beliefs. I wonder if all shapes and forms are really our minds' interpretation of something else -- something that exists beyond all form and substance; something so pure and ethereal as to be beyond our minds' ability to classify and interpret. It's possible that our recognition of this is a major step forward in and of itself. Maybe the constant infighting between different religions, faiths, and sects would finally come to an end if we only recognized that all religious beliefs are the physical interpretations of mortals. It's absolutely clear now that God does not care about our personal theology. Our physical beliefs are all rooted in temporary forms and substance; they are all but a passing moment in time. What really matters is experience, spiritual experience. It appears that the purpose of the entire universe is experience -- firsthand, gut-wrenching, personal experience. Nothing can replace it. It's now clear that personal experience is the road to wisdom that we all share.

Thank you Bob,

I have been thinking of starting a similar thread, but you beat me to it

It's been a month or so that I started to learn to go OBE and to my understanding this is a tool in life where we (humans) can learn or experience spirituality first handed, without reading books, doing al sorts of purifications, look behind the veil of the mind etc.
It is not to say that all the other tools are obsolete or to be done without. NO.. of course not!
But this astral travel, or OBE (out of body experience) is something where we are thrown into the pool of spirituality without looking for the insights etc. We get to meet source or higher self directly and we get to experience ourself as the immortal being that we are, without having to philosophy about it.
People who have learned to go astral 'know' that they are immortal and that they are not the phisical body, because they experienced this themselves.
This is a deep and profound knowledge that changes the way you see life in the 3th density.

It is also a relative short path to find certain truths.
Many people can learn to go OBE within a month.



ps: Good to see you back here bob!

I never learned to do it, it just "happened" to occur over a period of a few months that started last summer. Finding myself conscious and out of body on a few occassions, immediately rendered atleast 3/4 of any book store's spiritual section to old news.

Good stuff Bob, and I'm glad to see you back as well my friend!!!

Cheers,
Fred

excellent, this book totally blew me away here is an excerpt of one of the (many) stories that touched me...

Journal Entry, March 7, 1984

I feel intense waves of energy flowing through me. A sense of movement begins— extreme, building movement. Instantly, I am at an oceanfront home. All I can hear is pounding surf. Everything in the large house appears white and fuzzy, so I say aloud, “Clarity now!” As I look around, forms come into focus. I am standing in front of a huge oblong table, eighteen feet long. The room is filled with shining people. They seem to radiate light from every pore of their bodies. Seven men and one woman come forward to greet me. As the woman approaches, I can see her smile. When she looks at me, vivid pictures begin to appear within my mind. The meaning of each picture becomes instantly clear.

“It’s good to see you again. You have been busy.” I can clearly feel the warmth of her thoughts.

The group gathers around the table, and I know it’s time to sit down. As I look around the room, it seems to expand with my vision, I can still hear the waves crashing and I wish to see the ocean. A clear picture appears in my mind, “You will experience the ocean soon enough. Let’s begin.”

I respond automatically, “The ocean sounds beautiful today.”

Soon another thought appears in my mind, “Yes, the ocean is wonderful. We take it for granted. Our visitors are normally unconscious. We will adapt.” There is a brief pause, then a continuation of thought-energy from the other end of the room: “There is much energy being directed into the dense regions. Those who live in the hard bodies are beginning to respond. There is much to be done. Those who are awakening from their sleep are searching for answers—searching on the outside. No wonder there is so much confusion. We know how tough the physical vehicles can be; we have all been there. The ultimate test is to recognize the truth while surrounded by dense illusions.”

Spontaneously I respond with a thought, “There is too much expected and too little guidance provided. Why must it be so hard?”

Another picture appears in my mind. I somehow know it’s female. “The school is firm, but fair. Each creates the lessons they need.”

I look toward her and my thoughts just seem to flow. “But why so much ignorance and pain?”

Another voice enters my mind, “School is painful for some, enlightening for others. Only experience creates wisdom. The end result is always effective.”

I respond, “Even so, too little guidance is provided. Five billion people, and all are hoping and praying that what they believe is true. It seems like an ineffective school to me—all these people living in the dark.”

Another voice appears, “You don’t see the whole picture, my friend. Time is an illusion. There is no rush. All are immortal. The very act of being is experience, and experience creates wisdom. Time is not the issue.”

As I look around the room, the reality of the experience is overpowering. I can feel the table and see the room with absolute clarity. Distracted by the sound of the waves, I begin to feel an intense tugging sensation. I am being pulled back. In seconds I am within my physical body. As I slowly open my eyes, feelings of numbness, tingling, and disorientation quickly fade.

[Mark]

welcome back indeed, great stuff, with good, practical advice - and instructions - for anyone ready to get subjective about it all and see for themselves that which cannot be truly believed until experienced.

[DeDukshyn]

As far as I'm concerned that was a recommendation specific for me. Thanks for being a part of my manifestation! I'll loook for that book.

When I was 26 I learnt how to astral travel every night. Initially, for a number of months I would usually spend part of the night at courses held on various other planets or moons in the solar system. Then, after a year or so I became more interested in traveling at night to areas on the other side of the planet where people were suffering through war etc and working to lighten the pain of their suffering in some way.

Eventually most of the novelty of the extreme pleasure one experiences when flying (and all the more intensely when one does so formlessly, or, even better, universally, e.g. through timelessness) wore off. After two years I became primarily interested in how to bring in resources from higher dimensions down into the world my physical body was in, to help cure or solve my problems or those of other people, or to dissolve away negative energies. I became much more interested in going out of body while awake in my everyday world, and cleaning that up psychologically/energetically.

Why? Because we are living lives in this physical world, and we need to learn to master everything about that world. I found I was sometimes too naïve or impractical, because all the astral traveling was keeping my consciousness too much “in the clouds”. Well, not really in the clouds. I was able to see the incredible beauty and joy that is right here but which others didn’t see. But as a result, for example, I chose to marry the wrong person. Had I put more attention on becoming more streetwise about relationships and people and just down-to-earth boring basics of life on this planet, I’m sure I would have made a better choice.

Astral travel involves going out of your body, but staying in control. Anybody who is psychotic (insane) is out of their body but can’t control it, and doesn’t know how to ever get back in, pretty much. If you can go out of your body in a controlled way, you do in one sense get the best of both worlds. But there’s still a considerable danger that you may fail to integrate the two fully. And we all come to the physical world primarily to learn about the physical world.

I’ve noticed that many people who attempt to practise intensive meditation find they seem to be spending much of their meditation time in “fog”. My understanding is that that’s because they haven’t learnt how to integrate what they experience in meditation with their life in the physical world yet. I don’t experience such “fog” when I meditate. But I did experience something probably similar in parts of my waking life in the workaday world during the first five years or more when I was actively traveling out of body.

The human body is itself an incredible gateway to many higher dimensions. Getting deeply in touch with it is, paradoxically, a very effective way to get into harmony with one's own Higher Self across many dimensions. I guess these days I prefer that to astral travel, because it works better and quicker, at least in my experience.

We often hear the familiar dictum from teachers and guides that one must have direct experience of a subject in order for it to amount to “authentic knowledge”, otherwise it just remains on the level of concept and speculation. That is certainly true, at least as far as it goes, and yet there is more to be considered in regard to the matter of direct experience.

Yes, big life-changing insights about the nature of things can constitute direct experience, but forgetting all insight can too. Forgetting is no less direct than acquiring. Furthermore, if one is not having some big insight or revelatory experience at the moment, whatever experience they are having is nevertheless just as direct. They are simply having the direct experience of nothing special, which happens to be, interestingly enough, what truly insightful experiences turn out to be anyway, so we can enjoy ordinary mind without feeling as if we are missing out on something more direct and "genuine".

We can't step out of direct experience, since wherever one could step would merely constitute another form of direct experience. Likewise, even the most altruistic sense of selfless service is actually rooted in selfishness, otherwise there would be no functioning at all. Without the prior self-sense, where would the motive to act selflessly arise?

Of course, one might note that there's a big difference between hearing and thinking about water, and actually jumping into water and splashing about in it. Yes, this is so, but to hear and think is to be having the direct experience of hearing and thinking. Jumping into water is having the direct experience of jumping into water. “Water” is just some name we apply to something, but we never really know what it is – what it truly IS. When we are directly experiencing, we don't have time to know -- we are it. We are this functioning, directly experiencing itself as us, right now, in whatever way it may, in whatever way we are, and nothing could be more direct.

Certainly, in a manner of conventional speaking, we can say that Bill went to Japan and had a direct experience of Japanese culture, while Charlie stayed home and watched a Toshiro Mifune/Akira Kurosawa movie on the television. Big difference? Yes and no. Japanese are having the direct experience of being Japanese, but they do not think: "I am having direct experience of Japanese-ness." They are just what they are, which is a mystery to them, even as they stand in the middle of downtown Tokyo. What is their actual experience? Is it more direct than Charlie's, sitting at home in front of the tube, chewing on some Safeway sushi while reading sub-titles?

How many different thoughts rise and fall in the time it takes to have a direct experience? Are any of them direct? Does one perception among the countless billion stand up and say, "Hey now, I'm the direct one, and all the others are blurred around the edges?"

Mind is funny that way!

Today I have been staining a nice table that I refinished. In between coats of stain, I pause to let it dry. When I rub on the stain, I am having the direct stain-rubbing experience, and when I am waiting for it to dry, I am having the waiting experience. These two activities appear to be separate, but they are not really, nor is experience divided up that way, except in the imagination. There is actually only one experience, expressing itself in unqualifiable ways, but when I try and take any ownership of it, things begin to get confused, because I separate out from the experience – stand apart from it to grasp it. What a funny mind! How can it hold onto a dream?

Inspiring post TraineeHuman,

May I ask what you mean when you say this... bringing in resources into the physical world?


I know for one that I am someone who is the clouds way too much, but since I'm practising to go OBE (I haven't pulled it of yet), there are things happening that are grounding me better and more often then ever before.... That's a bit in contrast with what you're saying isn't it?
I had a series of dreams where there were planes crashing down near me, or I was in a plane crashing down and then, when I woke up, I felt very grounded and in touch with the physical life. So my efforts to go OBE triggered something in me that is helping me to be more grounded, maybe as a necessity to learn to go OBE?, I'm not sure, but so far... it's the opposite for me.

I'm also doing a breathing technique/meditation every time I give it a try, to get over the anxiety and this also is making me more grounded and 'in touch'.


Once again.... very inspiring!

[realitycorrodes]

In my experience, I originally thought that it was me who was putting the effort in to astral travel...and I thought I succeeded.

Eventually I grew to realize that it was never me who did the astral travel and that there was always something helping me.

I always had to put in effort e.g. it would take a week of "intention" to bring the necessary help to get me out.

Exactly what that help was well....I guess each has to find out for themselves.

I had psychic friends who could do it at will...and yet I noticed these psychic friends had no real "mastery of their body" e.g. irritable, overweight, smoking, attached etc. etc.

Pretty average people who seemingly had a gift.

Then I realized that everything is actually way way beyond little old me - in other words I realized that I was doing nothing, that I did not exist, and that everything moved of its own accord.

It was then that the real surrender became manifest and the realization that there was nothing to do except relax and let it all just happen.

Now I don't astral travel anymore - consciously at least - and I don't even try.

Now the only thing that seems to matter is the experience of bliss and with the bliss comes the mastery of the body. IMHO

Wishing "absolute bliss" to everyone!

P.S. All the best with the astral travel - it's still fun!!!!
But I guess I just wanted to draw one's attention to the purpose behind it all?

Hi Wakytweaky,

What I eventually discovered was that there are certain groups of fifth-dimensional beings whom I guess I would call healing angels, for lack of any better term. What happened was that I eventually learnt how to get them to remove certain negative energies from myself or from other individuals -- but only when the individual in question had completed a (for lack of any better term) psychotherapeutic breakthrough in some area. Basically, once a person has been truly healed of some negative or debilitating energy, that energy itself usually has a little consciousness and life of its own, and seeks to attach itself to some other unfortunate person or living creature -- unless that energy gets "airlifted", so to speak, into a more positive dimension than this one. (In the Gospels Jesus is described as casting out evil spirits and in one case then sending some that had been cast out into a herd of pigs, rather than people. I suspect Jesus would have known how to send said evil spirits to a higher dimension, but probably the author of that part of that Gospel didn't know to do this.)

After about three months of frequent practice, I learnt how to send negative energies "upstairs" that had left an individual by myself, without needing the fifth-dimensional beings' assistance. I guess anybody can learn how to do this. I wish all psychotherapists and spiritual healers would do it. You can learn how if you really, really want to, I'm sure. Know that the help is there, and reach out for it. And sharpen the fineness of your own consciousness.

Second part -- about the body being a gateway. I don't believe it's possible to get fully in touch with your own body unless you also get in touch with what Barry Long (see www.barrylong.org)called your "inner body". (His student Eckhart Tolle "borrowed" the same term and the same concept.) You can think of your inner body as whatever is "you" once you die. Normally, people suppose that sensation is entirely a 3D, purely physical phenomenon. That isn't true. (Even though there's a certain sense in which "the lights go out" at the moment of death.) The root of sensation is inextricably tied up with what it means to exist, to simply be alive -- or, as some call it, the "I am". "The 'I am'" is 11D, and is the beginning of the universal or divine worlds.

It took me some time to master both of the above -- and that was despite my having been a "natural meditator" since childhood. But I'm completely sure any normal person can master both. It just takes lots of work over time, and maybe lots of feedback from e.g. the right teacher.

[Libico]

Great thread another bob - I've been meaning to start a thread on William Buhlman for some time. I've just recently picked this book up (and have his next book "Secret of the Souls" on my next list) and find that this book speaks to me in a way very very few other books have. My first week of starting to read his material I had 2 lucid dreams, and every time I pick it up and read a few pages it seems to push towards another experience.

I can't recommend this book highly enough - it's opened me up to OBEs and helped me experience the start of something I've been searching for for a long time.

Thank you,

This feels like important information.

I know of a few people who are dealing with situations where they overcome stuck energy, or darkness if you will and find themselves in a situation where people close to them seem to have adopted this very energy.
This includes myself too.
I am in the middle of a process of... in loss of better words, cleaning myself of lots of stuck energy and there have been many moments that at the same time, my girlfriend started showing the psychological symptoms that I just got rid of. How do I learn to send this energy away to a place it can no longer do any harm?

Experiences are endless, regardless of what dimension one travels about in, though it all amounts to mere modifications of consciousness, and will not yield liberation, since liberation is already always the case, and cannot therefore be attained by techniques, methods, strategies, or schemes of gross or subtle manipulation, anymore than one can become what one already is.

However, we are by habit sound asleep to the magnificence of our own true nature, and so discovering a way to commune with our own Higher Self/Source can serve to awaken us to what and who we are in Reality. Consequently, upon embarking upon any astral adventure, do not be distracted by phenomena, but immediately affirm: "I go to my Higher Self!" This will prove to be expeditious.

[sirdipswitch]

TraineeHuman, Wakytweaky, and all else, who may be having problems with Gremlins. chuckle chuckle.

They are meanly mischievious entities, that inhabit the lower realms of the astral, and their sole purpose, is to come into our realm, and make a mess in our head. And they are very good at it. They feed on the fear, laziness, and other ill feelings that they produce in us. They are quite simple to get rid of, by simply "Commanding" them to leave. Yep! That simple! First of all, you must remember who, and what, you really are.
We are Immortal Spiritual Beings Of The Highest Order. There is none, more powerfull than we. Period. Give this as a Command: "All entities, of an evil, or mischievious nature, I no longer give you my permission to be here in my space. Leave me, leave this house, go back to where you came from, and never ever, return here." And they will leave you. They must leave you or answer to Source, for disobeying His rules. You may even experience a tingling sensation, like your hair is standing on end when they leave. chuckle chukle. Now, having cleared yourself in such manner, and they have left you for all time, that's not to say that others, may not move in to take their place. hmm. Yep! This should be done on a daily basis, to remain clear. There are an infinate number of these little Gremlins out there to annoy us with their preasence. This is one of the reasons that I so strongly suggest communing with your HS/Source. Once you do so, your natural power, as an Immortal Spirit, will radiate into the astral, and you will no longer be bothered by them, or anything, even ET's.

Another bob,

Ya done good Brother, love your thread.

love and peace
sirdipswitch

Ps: In re-reading I find that I may have been a little missleading. You do not have to Commune with HS/Source, to command the Gremlins to leave, you allready possess the power to tell them to leave. They "Cannot" disobey you. Even as you are now.

Another bob,

Brother, I'm only passing on what you shared with me.

You are the one who brought Buhlman to my attention, and for that,
as well as your sharing of your own experience so generously,
I bow in humble gratitude.

May all beings be served, may all beings be happy!

[Ron Mauer Sr]

Just ordered Adventures Beyond the Body from Amazon, $10.20. Hopefully my HS will cooperate and help with this. I've certainly asked before with little luck, at least that I remember.

Years ago I had one lucid dream that I could control. That is different but more lucid dreams would be fun. Most of my dreams involve me as an observer, watching myself, but not controlling/directing any part of the dream.

The ability to connect with anyone, any animal, anything I've ever loved and visit for as long as I choose is something I want very much to create.

[TraineeHuman]

Hi again, Wakytweaky,

Firstly, in deference to the OP I’d like to say I certainly agree that out of body travel can be a most wonderful tool, provided the “traveler” knows how to protect themselves psychically before they set off. In my own life, such “travel” has in some past decades been the source of intense joy and pleasures and of expansion into whole new frontiers. It has also in the past been priceless in teaching me about what true detachment is. And that’s something very closely related to genuine love – and what a misused word “love” is and continues to be!

Wakytweaky, you’re asking some questions that would require quite lengthy responses, and touch on quite advanced topics. Firstly, though, let me applaud you for having the awareness to notice with considerable precision what is really going on with people close to you.

I hope I didn’t convey an exaggerated picture by talking about “Jesus removing evil spirits in the Bible”. Today, instead of exorcism we have psychotherapy. As far as I understand, in the ancient Eastern spiritual traditions once you get well and truly past the beginner stages, spirituality is practically all about (self-)psychotherapy. But that includes literally watching yourself (your personality) every single moment. It also involves being willing to give up anything or anyone if truly necessary. That’s because for you to truly change, you (your inmost or highest part) must be ready to cast off major parts of whatever makes up “you”, no less. And to keep on casting parts of “you” off, to make way for something ever truer or more natural.

It’s certainly true that once a person loses an identity which was negative or undesirable or just plain too unbalanced, the person does subconsciously always try to draw in “temptations” to revert back to their old self. Such “temptations” need to be resisted and overcome, sometimes for a number of years after. Preferably, by developing new interests or new ways of behaving.

How can you, Wakytweaky, learn to move negative energies into 5D? I guess the best suggestion I can think of right now is to find somebody who is a full-time and 100% genuine professional psychic healer, and pay to have a session with them. In my experience, whenever such people are working they have more than a dozen specialized healing angels around, plus at least a half dozen guardian angels (a very senior type of angel, who help set up useful things in your life). That way you would be in direct contact with the healing angels. Even if you were completely unaware of their presence, you could always telepathically ask them to connect with you and to give you the ability to call on them or their friends to remove negative energy complexes from the 3D world.

Unfortunately, I can’t recommend you to see any Reiki practitioner, and would probably have to warn you against such a person. Although Reiki seems to attract many nice and intelligent people, as far as I have been able to see it greatly and artificially diminishes a person’s natural psychic healing power by trying to systematize and structure it.

I am a (part-time) psychic healer myself, and also have worked as a full-time psychotherapist and counsellor. I know when a client’s negative energy has been fully healed because for a minute or so the room gets filled with blue-violet light (or sometimes pure white or pure gold light). I know that’s the colour of the angels who take the negative energies away into a higher dimension, where those energies get neutralized even though they have already been disconnected from the client. Believe me, if you can only see auras very vaguely, that blue-violet light is so bright it’s unmistakable. (To learn to see auras, practice looking at a person or plant in dim light with your eyes cross-eyed, i.e. slightly out of sync.)

I guess another suggestion would be to contact somebody involved with the Kosmon “Church”, which is based on the book of Oahspe, because that Church has a method for summoning some of its dead members who voluntarily remove the “negative spirits” up into their fifth-dimensional space. I’m pretty sure some of the followers of the Book of Urantia would be able to do something similar. If this is “magic”, it’s totally “white magic”, so there’s nothing to fear on that score.

Another suggestion is to keep calling on your own guardian angels for their assistance. Even if you can’t see them, they are always there with you and will always work to move you closer to your goal, and they are often brilliantly creative.

Another comment I would want to make is that quite often a negative sub-personality is shared among a group of people. For instance, in my experience if a young person is drug-addicted, about 80% of the time the parents and siblings are equally as dysfunctional, even though they don’t express their dysfunctionality as dramatically. As it says in the Old Testament, “the sins of the fathers will be visited upon the sins of the children, to seven generations”. In such cases, all the members of the group need to be healed. The parents will often have no idea that they are too harsh or too passive or too possessive or whatever, and sometimes worse than their child, psychologically speaking.

Now let me explain a part of what I meant when I said that the body is a gateway to higher dimensions. I won’t go into e.g. the fact that the pineal gland apparently contains a stargate, or various other fascinating issues. Rather, I’ll just talk about meditation.

The Buddhists talk about one’s natural state. My preferred way of meditating is to get into that state as quickly and directly as possible. I usually do so by asking myself how it feels just simply to be alive. The body just about always stays in the Now. Kinesiology – “muscle testing” – was invented by John Diamond, who originally came from Melbourne, Australia. His first book was titled ‘Your body does not lie’. So, to get an accurate answer about how something feels, I get fully in touch with my body. In this case, with what my body is saying about how it feels just to be alive. In this way I get straight in touch with an intense joy, which I know to be 100% true and real. Then I just concentrate on that joy and let that joy take me deeper. At that point it’s true that my individual senses get weaker, or partly disconnected from my consciousness.

At some point the joy merges with or is taken over by a profound peace. That peace is really “nothing”, or pure clarity. As I go into higher dimensions still, the joy and the “nothing” seem to often take turns “driving”, until they just become, very paradoxically, two sides of the one same thing.

Eventually most of the novelty of the extreme pleasure one experiences when flying (and all the more intensely when one does so formlessly, or, even better, universally, e.g. through timelessness) wore off. After two years I became primarily interested in how to bring in resources from higher dimensions down into the world my physical body was in, to help cure or solve my problems or those of other people, or to dissolve away negative energies. I became much more interested in going out of body while awake in my everyday world, and cleaning that up psychologically/energetically.

Why? Because we are living lives in this physical world, and we need to learn to master everything about that world. I found I was sometimes too naïve or impractical, because all the astral traveling was keeping my consciousness too much “in the clouds”. ...
The human body is itself an incredible gateway to many higher dimensions .... I guess these days I prefer [getting deeply in touch with the body] to astral travel, because it works better and quicker, at least in my experience.

May I ask what you mean when you say this... bringing in resources into the physical world?

Hi Wakytweaky,

What I eventually discovered was that there are certain groups of fifth-dimensional beings whom I guess I would call healing angels, for lack of any better term. What happened was that I eventually learnt how to get them to remove certain negative energies from myself or from other individuals -- but only when the individual in question had completed a (for lack of any better term) psychotherapeutic breakthrough in some area. Basically, once a person has been truly healed of some negative or debilitating energy, that energy itself usually has a little consciousness and life of its own, and seeks to attach itself to some other unfortunate person or living creature -- unless that energy gets "airlifted", so to speak, into a more positive dimension than this one. (In the Gospels Jesus is described as casting out evil spirits and in one case then sending some that had been cast out into a herd of pigs, rather than people. I suspect Jesus would have known how to send said evil spirits to a higher dimension, but probably the author of that part of that Gospel didn't know to do this.)

Thank you,

This feels like important information.

I know of a few people who are dealing with situations where they overcome stuck energy, or darkness if you will and find themselves in a situation where people close to them seem to have adopted this very energy.
This includes myself too.
I am in the middle of a process of... in loss of better words, cleaning myself of lots of stuck energy and there have been many moments that at the same time, my girlfriend started showing the psychological symptoms that I just got rid of. How do I learn to send this energy away to a place it can no longer do any harm?

Use your imagination. No, seriously, you are a Creator and not only can you focus your attention, you can create with it. Be warned however that creating with anything other than love in this sense will get you results less desirable. This is my non personal answer - I'm just in an objective mood, sorry.

off topic .. All day I've been super objective ... I even asked myself how I was going to fit into that tiny body; my body. ... strange day.
