First I want to mention that the continuation from last week’s post, “Out of Body Experiences - 0001” is on its way. I had written most of this current post a while ago and figured now would be an appropriate time to publish it.
I would like you to imagine your mind as a single drop of water. Now imagine that the ocean is a pool of life where all minds are born and also where they return to at death (The Universal Mind). Your life-span is the time that it takes the drop of water (your mind) to fall from the clouds back to the ocean. Once that drop of water reaches the ocean it will never exist in the same form again. Sure, you can take another drop of water from the ocean, it looks the same and it might even contain a bit of the original drop but you cannot extract the original drop from the ocean once it dissipates. Your mind is similar to the drop of water. Once you leave your earthly body behind, your mind may never be able to exist in the same form again no matter what you do, who knows? BUT, we all might have the tools to learn how to keep it intact. If you learn to use your mind in other realms, you might be able to hold it together through the spirit world and into your next existence.
Regardless of religion many people believe that we are here to learn or accomplish something so that we can “graduate” to the next level of existence. Unfortunately many people also believe that making money and acquiring possessions is the main purpose of life. An employee may feel that they are doing well in life by going to work early every day and never taking a day off. Sure, it’s noble and respectful to your employer but is it really helping YOU in any way? If you die with a million dollars in the bank is that going to help you somehow? It might help the people you leave behind bear the cost of burying you, and guarantee that your corpse will have a nice place to rot with a lovely view of the ocean but that’s about it.
Everyone’s heard the saying, “you can’t take it with you,” well maybe that’s true about material possessions but maybe there is something you can take with you, your most important and only true possession, your mind. It’s one of those things that is just so simple and obvious that we take it for granted. You might say, if it’s so obvious how come science hasn’t discovered it or proved this in some way? Well, there are many things that are yet to be discovered and by design this theory is one of those subjects that is nearly impossible to prove. To date the closest that science has come to proving anything like this is true is with the people who remember past lives through hypnosis. Some people even talk in foreign languages that they never learned to speak in waking life. Let’s face it though, nobody is going to believe it completely until somebody dies and comes back with their mind intact, and proves it somehow. Even then most people would probably just dismiss it as bullshit! There’s also a paradox issue; if someone does master the ability to control their mind after death, they might not have to come back. If that’s what they were here to learn and develop in the first place, why would they have to come back?
Society doesn't necessarily consider self exploration of the mind and psyche a useful endeavor, there is no profit in self improvement. (Except of course on the material level such as; weight loss, lip injections, face pulls, penis pills, breast implants, hair products, etc, etc…). There are lots of people who make a living as psychics and fortune tellers but unfortunately they aren’t always the most reputable people, which creates a stigma around the whole issue. There is also a lot of room for corruption in these fields because it’s so easy to take advantage of desperate people. True psychics and healers get lumped in with a bunch of greedy con men (and women) and are all labeled shady. If you look into it yourself you’ll find that there are many true psychics who do wonderful things with their abilities. True psychics typically don’t charge for their services because they usually want to help others with their abilities, not use them to get rich. Even Edgar Cayce (The Sleeping Prophet) didn’t charge for his readings and healing sessions, and he wasn’t a rich man at all, in fact he was often broke. (There is a new post coming soon dedicated to the life of Edgar Cayce which will explore his life and abilities in great detail). There are many psychics who help the police and FBI solve cold cases. Psychics are also brought into cases when the detectives have little evidence to go by. There are even ”remote viewers” who astral project themselves into top secret organizations to gather intelligence. These certainly aren’t the same psychics who cheat innocent and elderly people out of their life savings, or the ones who give readings for twenty five bucks on the street corner, they are legitimate psychics who have discovered, or were born with, special mental abilities. If you meet one of these people you will find that they appear very comfortable with their place in the universe. They usually have strong ethics and a unique view of the world. They don’t seem to let the stress and heartache of daily life get to them like most people do.
The point of all this is that it’s essential to put some time aside for yourself. These days especially most people are so busy living life that they hardly have time to sleep at all, waking up peacefully and writing down their dreams is a pipe-dream in itself! If it’s at all possible try to find a little time for yourself. If mind expansion isn’t your thing make time to do something you enjoy. Spend some time playing with the kids, taking the dog to the park or even just reading a book. If your boss told you to come in a half hour earlier each day for two weeks Lord knows you would probably find a way to make it happen, so doing something for yourself should be even more important. Giving yourself time to re-energize should be a priority. Many people go “full throttle” all day long, skip lunch, stay late and then come home with a whole list of chores to do. By the time they go to bed they are so stressed out that they blink once, then get up to do it all over again (at least that’s how it feels to them). What I described here is a horrible existence and it’s not the way it’s supposed to be. Doing this will eventually result in poor mental and physical health. We are all busy and have important responsibilities that must get done but you don’t have to be a hero. Take the time to get out of the office (or whatever) and unwind, even if you aren’t hungry it’s essential to take a break and recharge your energy. During this time your mind also sorts out the information from the morning and organizes the plan for the rest of the day. Working straight through lunch is not healthy and it is more likely to affect your performance in a negative way. Things will start to fall through the cracks and you will be working harder but accomplishing less. If you have one of those jobs that simply doesn’t permit you to leave the office and demands your undivided attention, try to give yourself time at night to unwind or pursue your own interests. You will find that letting go of some of the stress and monotony of the day will have a profound effect on all aspects of your life and your personality.

Out of Body Experiences - 0001
Out of body experiences are one of the most interesting and mysterious human phenomenons. Although it’s been studied and practiced for thousands of years, most people today tend to dismiss these subjects as unimportant and unrewarding. Many are too caught up in the hustle and bustle of everyday life to be bothered exploring their dreams or practicing mind expansion techniques. Let’s face it, most of us don’t have the time or patience to commit to investigating strange new ideas that we’re not even sure if we believe. I’m afraid we have abandoned an important part of life and the human equation. Ancient Egyptian writings plainly show that the ancients were practicing astral projection thousands of years ago. Ancient Egyptians healers were known to separate a seriously injured patient’s consciousness from their physical body while the body healed; a sort of ancient form of the induced coma. It’s quite possible that ancient scientists had a better understanding of the mind than modern humans. There is a theory that ancient man gained advanced knowledge through astral visits with higher beings, also that ancient people may have shared information with each other through astral visits. This would explain why many ancient ruins appear to be constructed using the same technology. Personally, I always felt that we don’t give ancient people enough credit when it comes to traveling. It’s possible that ancient artists and architects traveled around the world teaching people their skills. They also may have had better communication systems in place than we give them credit for. However, it is intriguing to think that long ago high kings or priests may have been communicating using only the mind, possibly even communicating through the barriers of time and space.
I know it sounds fantastical to think that people have an ancient, lost ability to use their minds to travel outside of our own dimension but it only takes one experience to turn a person into a believer. Once you meet a spirit or explore life without its earthly limitations, you might start to feel that your priorities are out of wack. Of course it’s important to keep your earthly affairs in order but it’s also important to keep your mind fine tuned and prepared for everything. When an accident victim finds themselves outside of their body, or suffers through a near death experience, they will usually discover that they now have a fresh, new, appreciation for life. Things that were important priorities the day before the accident are now considered trivial and unimportant. Before the accident they may have been planning a makeover for the living room and afterward they decide that the living room looks fine the way it is and they decide to use the money to buy the kids martial arts lessons instead. The accident victim ultimately decides that the furniture in the living room is adequate and the martial arts lessons will teach the kids courage and self discipline. After a serious trauma the victim might even be left with some type of residual side effect like being able to see auras, seeing spirits, or some level of psychic awareness. It’s not uncommon for a person experimenting with lucid dreaming and astral travel to experience a similar epiphany. They may feel more content with their place in the universe and cut loose the minutia of daily life, which causes nothing but damaging stress. They may also adapt a simpler way of living life and appreciating things that are more spiritually fulfilling.
When a baby is first born into our world it is confused and afraid. It has just come from a place where everything was warm and friendly and all of a sudden it was pulled into a bright, cold place and wrapped in a strange fabric. The baby doesn’t have any idea what is going on in life and is 100% completely dependent on its mother (and others) to feed, protect and teach it everything it needs to know to survive. Humans are probably the most dependent babies born on the planet. OK, maybe most babies share the same basic attributes at birth but Human babies stay dependent longer than almost any other species. After we’ve lived our entire life, when we finally pass from this world, many people who have had near death experiences report that we go into a bright light and recap our life along the way. When we pass into this light, people have reported warm, peaceful bliss, reuniting with lost family and friends and all sorts of wonderful things. In our next reality it might be helpful to have some type of mind skills. It wouldn’t make sense if everything we do and learn in this life simply ends and something new starts back at “square one”. Of course life doesn’t always make sense either… I suppose it’s equally possible that our energy gets redirected in so many ways that it’s impossible to hold it all together but if we do move on, it might be helpful to be able to keep our conscious mind in-tact long enough to choose a path or to pick our next life, whatever it may be. If you have no abilities and simply let yourself get swept away to the next plateau, you might find yourself back in a place where you are dependent on others to survive. You might even end up in a situation where it’s hard to hold yourself together, literally! If you can’t hold your mind together it might just get swept into a large energy field and disperse, who knows?
There is a fine line separating out of body experiences (OBE’s), near death experiences (NDE’s) and astral projection. Most OBE’s are experienced by ordinary people who suffer some sort of trauma. For example; the victim of a car accident who is pinned beneath a truck might feel their consciousness separate from their body, they would virtually watch the events unfold as a spectator or even float out of their body and watch the scene from above. Some people can leave their bodies at will, this is known as Astral Projection. I’ve heard of cases where a person who becomes paralyzed or looses their legs gains the ability to travel outside of their body. Most people have to practice often to experience astral travel and everyone has the ability to learn. Astral projection is sometimes confused with lucid dreaming. Even though a lucid dreamer is “waking up” inside of their dream and exploring those realms, they are usually still in a dream. It is believed that astral projection actually takes place in what’s known as “A” sleep rather than R.E.M. or “D” sleep. An astral traveler’s consciousness is free to explore dream worlds, the astral planes, the material or mundane plane (our reality), anywhere …yes anywhere. Astral travelers have even been known to explore space. (You knew space had to get in the picture sooner or later!).
When you first decide to attempt astral projection you should plan it for a time when you know that you are not going to be disturbed, a time that you can be truly relaxed. Turn the ringers off on your telephones, make sure there are no visitors, the less distraction the better. If possible get a wake up device that can be set to wake you up to soft music. You never want to be woken up by a loud bell or buzzer, even a clock radio can startle you with the blare of a loud DJ or commercial. Remove any earthly anchors (jewelry) and leave them on the nightstand. Try not to cross any of your limbs. What you are trying to achieve is the right level of meditation, the correct frequency to bring on the vibrations. Many colors will begin flashing in brilliant patterns before you begin to detach. Some people hear explosions when they break free. When you separate from your body you may float up to the ceiling or you might feel the bed drop out from beneath you. You’ve probably felt the sensation of abruptly falling just before you ”fall” to sleep, this is no different. The truly difficult part is riding out that initial detachment so that you don’t just wake-up instantly. As with anything, a little practice can go a long way.

Dreams 0003
Did you ever wonder where dreams come from? Did you ever wonder why dreams occur at all? Are dreams a doorway to other dimensions, a taste of the afterlife, or could dreams simply be the “residue of the day?” (Demhoff, 2001,2003) a bi-product of the active mind from making decisions and being awake all day?
I like to think that dreams are more than just a by-product. Not all dreams are alike, some have the feeling of fantasy and others feel more like reality. I feel that dreams are not only reflections of our inner consciousness but places that we can visit and interact with while in our waking consciousness.
The characters in our dreams are more likely to be friends and acquaintances rather than thieves and scary monsters. Dreams often have a unique set of rules which apply only to that particular dream. The rules in dreamland are governed by the fears and limitations of the dreamer. Did you ever have a dream that should be a nightmare but your mind is treating it like a game or TV program? Something that should be very scary seems perfectly normal for some reason. Then you’ll have a simple dream about the most trivial little thing and it will feel like a horrible nightmare! I guess any rules that exist in dreamland are loosely written.
Many people believe that we act out forbidden fantasies in our dreams, but there isn’t actually any evidence to back that up. Sigmund Freud theorized that dreams express unconscious wishes and urges, impulses that we “sensor” during waking life. This isn’t always the case but I'm sure it's accurate for some people. The more control you have of your dream world, the more you will be able to control their content and indulge in hidden desires. Personally, If I wake up inside a dream I tend to stay within the current dream scenario instead of instantly changing my surroundings. If I start changing things too fast or thinking too much I may instantaneously wake up in bed. One time I found myself driving in a dream and I started realizing that I didn’t have to drive, I knew that I was in a dream and I could just think myself to wherever I was going. I know that I instantly arrived at my destination but I don’t remember anything more. Sometimes that type of experience will initiate a lucid dream and other times I’ll just have that one moment of clarity and then get pulled back into a standard dream. Just as it’s easy to wake up while attempting to gain consciousness in a dream, it is just as easy to get pulled back into deeper sleep. Achieving lucidity really requires a fine balance. Once you identify where your personal line is, it eventually becomes easier to reach your goal.
When trying to interpret a dream it’s best to do it yourself. With a little practice you can learn to interpret pretty well. Only the dreamer knows what certain objects and places within their dream world might signify. An outsider can only tell you what certain images symbolize. Maybe you dream about water frequently because you were an Arctic fisherman in your past life or maybe it's simply because you have a weak bladder! A common mistake when trying to interpret your dreams is to look too deep for hidden meaning, you can usually find your answer right on the surface. If you are looking forward to a tropic vacation in the near future, you may start dreaming about the beach but it’s more common to dream about places after you’ve been there and the event has already happened.
I believe people can dream of places and events that haven’t happened yet but it’s not commonplace. Our minds simply aren’t accustomed to delving into future matters. A person who has an open mind about time and what “time” is, might experience dreams and premonitions of future events more often. A few years ago I had a lucid dream that left me with a weird feeling. As with most lucid dreams, when I woke up I remembered everything very clearly. There were many strange people in this dream, I knew that I never met any of these people but also knew somehow that they were my friends. I noticed how everything felt far removed from present day life but everything felt right. I was working at a job that I never actually had and when I woke up I wondered why I was dreaming about working in a weird office and doing a different job? I wasn’t sure exactly what my position was but I remembered thinking that it was a job that I wouldn’t typically apply for. About seven years later, while I was working for Waldner’s Business Environments as the Service Dispatcher, I was suddenly hit with an intense Déjà-vu sensation. I immediately knew what my mind was flashing back to that weird dream from long ago about that strange job. The people who were standing around me in the dream were the same people who I now worked with at the office. While I was working at that job I never thought back to that dream or connected the two experiences. It wasn’t until I felt the intense Déjà-vu feeling that day that my mind connected the two events.
What many people don’t realize is that everyone dreams differently. Some people experience lucid dreams much more frequently than others. For these people the dream world is more like an amusement park than a movie. They are typically unaware of their gift because from their perspective everyone can control their own dreams. They don’t realize that others, like myself, have to work much harder to achieve a lucid dream. Everyone has the ability to achieve lucid dreaming. It starts by making a conscious effort to remember your dreams. Writing them down is essential and it’s also a good idea to include brief comments about the dreams. You would be surprised how much those little comments help when you go back to read that dream years later. Some people also like to draw images from their dreams. Drawing images helps the dreamer to recall more details about a dream.
The next step is to try manipulating your dreams. This can be done with music, television or even just by repeating an idea in your head as you fall asleep. Once you figure out how to manipulate your dream you can try to use that manipulation as a cue to wake up inside your dream. I will get into some techniques and exercises in future posts, but the most important thing is to have patience, don’t be discouraged if you don’t remember anything for a month, or even longer. Lucid dreams may not happen often but when they do they usually leave the dreamer with an exhilarating, refreshing feeling that might even last all day.
