Welcome to Dreams! / Re: Sort of lucid

This is where our Non-Physical experiences begin to change in more significant ways. We expect, at this point, to just fly around when we want to, walk through walls, explore our local neighborhood or go zipping about the Cosmos as we see fit. Well, there is a certain amount of that freedom, but to an increasing degree our NP experiences now become somewhat more down to earth and more narrowly-focused on events and thoughts right in front of us- take for example your experience fowlskins.

Like Tak mentioned, this definitely does read like a 'simulation'- a Non-Physical learning environment designed just for the one person. Call it what you will: an AP, an OBE, a Phasing, a dream or lucid dream, whatever; the key is, it is a personal learning energetic environment designed to teach you something. The trick to realizing this is when you attempt to apply your Intent/Will to change something and the environment resists. You try to levitate, fly, change the surroundings and you can't. That is the subtle warning to NOT disrupt the teaching environment and to relax and just go with the flow- which means just go with the presented storyline.

(I know that both fowlskins and Tak know this to varying degrees; I am just edifying this for others)

But...being stubborn humans and having recently realized the use of Intent/Will, at this stage we often pound our heads against the wall repeatedly demanding our Intent be fulfilled and experienced...this most often results in repeated, frustrating failures up to the point the simulation is terminated. And we return to physical focus wondering what could have possibly gone wrong. In my own case, after a hundred or so failures, I slowly learned to back off and acquiesce to the plotline or storyline and not try to force my will upon it. And this led to longer, deeper experiences, but the understanding was not necessarily always there; a broader context was needed. That was where the Pulse came in, and older, more experienced and wider opinions could be offered and considered. As it turned out, many others had already experienced the nearly exact situations I had been dealing with, and could offer intriguing insights; some insights, I took on immediately, others needed time to consider.

Back to fowlskins experience- Notice that the dream storyline/plot was already running as you became aware. (that is often a sign that a simulation is already running-not always, but something to keep in mind) Your friend vanishing/reappearing as a recent Physical-Reality customer was likely designed to boost your lucid awareness, which it seemed to do, as you pointed out to him 'this is just a dream'. Then you pointed out other dream signs until you saw the realization in his face (which also likely bumped up your awareness another notch). Then, despite your seeming low lucidity, you suggested your friend study the plants and notice the vivid colors. That is you coaxing your NP friend to take his awareness up still another notch! Nice!

fowlskins- you should meditate on this experience, ask one simple question at a time (silently/internally) and wait a minute for an answer, before moving on to the next. Ask what this experience was supposed to teach you and 'feel' how your intuition responds. Despite feeling only partially lucid, notice just how well and cognitive your non-lucid Self operated...we recognize this as the development of the Second or Non-Physical Personality. It is a very interesting phenomenon to
start becoming aware of. Was your friend in the experience possibly an Instructor/Teacher? Something to consider...

As I found out years ago, in many simulations, it will feel as if you are only semi-lucid. And this will be true in many cases. It will be a condition of the simulation. You may be challenged to increase your lucidity or your awareness may be subdued, reduced or limited as part of the conditions of the challenge. You simply feel dumbed-down, as if your natural IQ has been reduced by some 50%. Part of the learning process is to recognize it and learn when and when not to struggle; the other part may be for NP Instructors to observe how we operate at this level, possibly our more instinctive level. This form of learning becomes very intriguing, but is also quite challenging! There definitely seems to be both a short form to it, like the one described by fowlskins, but also long form versions that can play out either through a simulation storyline or through what are possibly composite experiences of both personal astral experiences intermixed with testing/instruction/learning. And from my perspective, even if the longer, deeper experiences happen...the shorter and often confusing daily quiz/pop quiz kinds of reduced awareness dream simulations have still not ended; in fact, for me over the last couple years, new elements have been introduced which confound me to no end...except to realize that this...these short-form, reduced-awareness, semi-lucid dreams are an excellent instructional format...like a daily NP crossword puzzle Haiku download...go think about that for the next day (Wow! that was a little bit of a channel, lol)...the short form, I don't even probably need to mention an example; we all have them almost nightly- if we engage our thinking at the right level, we get them...they are short, initially-confusing, semi-lucid dreaming conversations...I don't think they are mental pollution or happen by accident...we are expected to consider them. I would expect that everyone here knows this short-form of internal communication or has had some kind of recognizable encounter with it.

Here is a longer form that spoke directly to me on this issue of reduced awareness, the most significant at the time.
https://www.astralpulse.com/forums/welcome-to-astral-projection-experiences!/grass-gravel-and-an-old-friend/

That was 2014. I learned a few years later that my friend JS passed in 2017 at age 55. I suspected his ongoing depression, among other issues, so the timing and circumstance of the visitation still make me wonder. Beyond even that is the way, in this experience, knowledge may have found a path to be imparted...this adds yet to my own personal mystery of all this sheer wonder we encounter.


My point in all this, other than imparting (my) general knowledge and perspective on these matters is to notice and reflect on how your awareness, thinking, and cognition are changing on multiple levels...including while you are SUPPOSEDLY asleep! And the fact that it is changing, developing, increasing! And it will continue, so encourage it! Good luck and have fun!

Good experience!

It's fun when that happens! I also think that you were only one step away from becoming fully aware... you were very close!

Sometimes similar things happen to me and it's very funny, for example, I know I'm dreaming, I start flying, manipulating environments or doing different things that I like to do in dreams, but I say that I'm doing that because I have to practice to have lucid dreams in future, as if at that moment I was not having one and it was just a "simulation"!

Another thing that usually happens to me is flying and moving objects at will, but I think that is completely real and that I am just developing humanity's hidden powers, such as levitation and telekinesis. At that moment I want to convince others to try it too, but no one feels interested. Or when objects disappear I attribute it to a paranormal phenomenon. The only thing that makes me realize in those kinds of moments that I am projecting in some way is when my body is not solid and I go through objects or I can't grab them  :roll: 

It was very close! You will be successful next time.

Traveling is wonderful! I am always plotting new routes on the map and looking forward to discovering new and unexpected places. I also hope to do it soon! Go to the mountains, drink from the waterfalls, sleep under the light of the stars... Although we are never disconnected, that is an illusion, we are always traveling, even when we are still, above all (the journey of consciousness never stops).
Have a nice trip! in every sense of the word.

:-)

ok I just finished the video~ it was good to refamiliarize myself with the content.

SO COOL. My favorite is the live contact video.

Would you ever be willing to do another one like that?

Maybe one day you and Isza would even give me permission to gaze alongside y'all!

I loved seein Ceann in REAL TIME... Whoa! The way the light and cloudy material came to life. Wow.

Wowwwwww.... I love this video.

Also, I really like the original capture of Esteban. I don't know why, but the angle and the additional data coming through does something to my brain that makes it more relaxed and opened.

I am so grateful for all your work and all these portraits. Great, great video~

Yes let's talk about fractal consciousness-- or just consciousness in general! I want to dive into that again!

Here's my attempt/guess...

The way I imagine it is the source of all that is as churning in a kaleidoscopic fashion- the light geometry or fractal results are actually emanations from/of ONE source which has been called the Sun of Suns. Sometimes called the lightless light. It is something that exist outside time and space. Could such a thing exist?

I'm currently learning about God or paradise defined by the UBook. According to this text paradise exist outside time and space. It's rather interesting to think of time and space as a tool or technology in itself. A manifestation- and to think that intelligible something(ALL-Pervading) exist within manifestation also exist outside of what we understand as reality. I have experienced a living intelligence acknowledge my innermost thoughts in PRECISE fashion. In any moment in (perceived) time it would manipulate the (perceived) outside world in ways that are beyond coincidental, just to show me it is alive and responding to what I had been feeling or thinking on. A simple example is, I am thinking of a particular being called the peacock angel and in that very moment a car pulls up with a custom license plate I had never seen before- a vibrant peacock logo. I have even more in depth examples of this, with manifestations that would shatter my understanding of reality. What is that? What is time to THAT? What is REALITY to that? 

Casey can correct me as she sees fit- this question was hers. But I've asked her the same and now I'm taking a personal go at it as I think more on consciousness in general... I see this fractal consciousness as oozing manifestation. I think my "points of awareness" like some hologram- yes this dense material I call a body is real(absolutely it IS REAL), but are we more than our bodies? What does Astral travel teach us? And this awareness- does it not roam? Can it be shared with others?

I think there are beings that exist in light spectrums that our "human modality" can not perceive. And I think of some of the beings we are seeing in these captures as greater parts of the 'fractal consciousness.' They are residing in different light spectrums, but what is churned and produced has symmetry- has adjoining factors. We share something with THEM. That something is actually consciousness itself. I think even some of these advanced beings are still working their way towards paradise- towards the place outside time and space.

I believe even planets have their own personality- but is it not true we are uniquely alive on the planet? And how many billions of people are there? So what is it moving through the billions of people able to acknowledge any one person in any moment through (supposed) time?

Ok, I might be drifting here and going in a completely different direction! But yes, I see ourselves belonging to a greater being. And still more, there are greater beings with which we are unconsciously a part of. Beings that may even share our astral experiences with us. I think of fractal consciousness as something that is being shared no matter what seeming individuated unique piece you are focused on.

I also think though we share a common bond, we are meant to have differences too. They are celebrated- if God wanted to experience these differences, we are definitely a means to the end. And still more, I think all of this is a great act of Love to be cherished.

What a trip! And what are they trying to teach us? I'm so excited for the discoveries waiting us all~

HAHA I love those confusing experiences.  :)

You had, in my opinion, a really low lucid awareness... almost not though, since while you were doing things you know you can do in a dream, you didn't really sound like you noticed that you WERE non-physical. 

Really fun though.  :)
