Towards North

[VJB]

Yo Como:

I just read 'Psychic Sexuality' by Ingo Swann.
In the book Ingo mentions his participation in an experiment with famous biofeedback scientist Elmer Green. This experiment is called the 'Copper Wall Project'. It is based on an ancient Tibetan technique for stimulating 'lucidity', for opening-up-wide the chakras, for activating super-conscious experience. You can find details about the technique in Ingo Swann's book, or in Elmer Green's book "The Ozawkie Book of the Dead", or in A.P. Sinnett's book "The Mahatma Letters".

So the Copper Wall Project consists of arranging a meditation room
with a 'copper wall' on the north wall of the room
the copper wall made from copper sheet metal
and hanging a magnet above the head, with pole facing up/north
One proceeds to meditate in front of the copper wall, under the magnet
practicing stillness meditation, staring directly at the wall in 'restful abidance' (Zhine) without blinking


well, that's just a taste of the technique...
think you might be interested in it

When Edgar Cayce, the famous "sleeping clairvoyant" first started giving readings, he often came out of his trance very fatigued and with headaches.  Therefore, when in a trance, he was asked about this, and what (if anything) could be done to help or prevent it.  The response was for him to lie down with his head pointing north and feet pointing south.  This has been mentioned in numerous places throughout the years (not just E.C.'s work, but by many other people).  Magnetic energy moves OUT from the north pole of a magnet and INTO the south pole.  So if I had to guess, I'd say that energy is entering your head, "washing" through your body and exiting your feet, thereby "cleansing" and "attuning" you in some way.  Since we have chakras on the soles of our feet for energy ingress/egress, and not on the top of our head (crown chakra doesn't count for this, as it is a different type), it makes sense.  ie:  If your feet are north, the force is going to push everything from your feet up to your head, and your head will get "clogged" with magnetic energy.  With your head north, everything washes out the feet chakras.  I'm sure that's probably not exactly it, but you get the picture.

As for working with magnets, I'd be very careful, especially if you use a powerful one.  I have a large neodymium magnet that I've placed both hanging from the ceiling (so north was facing my forehead) and above my head (so north was facing my scalp) and I can really feel the energy alot!  I'm talking headache, alot.  Magnets are traditionally used in healing bones, because when a break occurs the body produces a "north" magnetic field, which tells the rest of the body, "Fix this spot that has a north polarity".  Almost all people who attempt to sleep with or meditate with magnets will experience headaches, and I don't think that's a good thing.  Something to think about.

Yeah..! Monroe (of TMI) already has done quotations about reliability of such bedroom arrangements in clear coincidence with yours.

I agree with most of what you said except this. That is 100% completely untrue and I'm not sure where you got such a rediculous "fact" from.

I have experimented on myself and found that I can reliably sense the north-south line every time, under any condition of blocking other senses.
Oddly, though, I will SWEAR that I am facing north with ABSOLUTE certainty, when I am facing due south.
Other animals are known to have a magnetic sense, why not some of us?

Certainly, astronauts in electronically induced magnetic fields of null intensity, shown a behaviour compatible with madness.
That probes that human being is sensible to magnetic fields.

I dont know if its coincidence but my very first obe who ended with sleep paralysis occured with a big trasformer part of my acoustic amplifier who was near my head.That told me that artificial magnets must be kept away from the body but dont ask me why, maybe its second sight.By the way I dont know if that helped obe or not but second try didnt give any results.

Hello All

The star on this photo shows the houseI had my first conscious amazing OBE which was more real than my current physical reality.

I had been wondering why I had an OBE at this particular spot and why I havn't had any OBE'S since then.

It had occured to me last night while meditating that I had been facing directly magnetic north, it was a coincidence that this house I stayed in had the bed facing directly north, it was a pleasant place with children playing, outside bugs buzzing, and the sun shining all which helped my conciousness transcend higher.

I think magnetism affects our conciousness directly similar to the way gravity affects our physical bodies.

I have rearranged my bedroom so I face North.
I also beleive that living in a clean neat organized enviornment promotes OBE's because a beutiful enviornment will make you feel better and feeling better leads to increased energy for spiritual work.
Does anyone want to share their experiences with magnets etc?
