[a lot]

I looked 3 times and I could not find one piece of factual information in that article.

Aside, there is a lot of controversy surrounding 2012. I think it is even more discussed than the year 2000. About every single bad thing that could happen to us will happen in 2012, apparently.


Alex

Yes that's right. And in Christian terms this is apparently the same as joining the side of the devil, whereas to join the side of God you would have to reject the system and become a martyr (as commonly stereotyped in many movies).

A deeper interpretation would be that you surrender your soul [will] to the system for supreme control. "Selling your soul to the devil", so to speak.


Alex

The mark of the beast IS the microchip itself as from what I recall from the bible (revelations).


Alex

When I first experienced kundalini energy I wasn't expecting it and it scared the [edit] out of me; - causing me to stop immediately. But I think if I experienced vibrations like that which woke me up from sleep I would be even more scared. It is probably why you got so discouraged from it. When we wake up it takes a few seconds to register where we are and before you could do that you had vibrations so I can understand why you freaked out. So you could try to project consciously without falling asleep as you will be expecting the vibrations this time.

But as I said earlier, the best way to "produce" motivation is to *experience* something you like first. When you project you can follow any of the ideas listed by others above or anything in your imagination.


Alex

Some of the chapters from Children of The Matrix are so well written that even if they are not factual they are still worth reading.

His book, Tales From The Time Loop and others have made a significant impact on me even though I didn't "buy into" some of the theories. You don't have to take his word for it to get something out of his books. Personally I know many of his ideas to be true (from personal experience).


Alex

It made me think that this may be a reality sooner than we think when I got my fingerprints from both hands recorded entering the United States last month. But it may not happen for a while worldwide.

It is really based on building a prison around a person in small layers. At first it seems harmless, but one by one our personal freedoms will become more and more vulnerable. I think it's a natural consequence of the information age. It is all being put into place subconsciously though. Society already has an amazing amount of power over us without microchips.

patapouf is right in the fact that people will be using microchips voluntarily because of convenience. I think they almost have as many advantages as disadvantages, but if placed in the wrong hands then all hell could break loose. Nonetheless if things do get as crazy as some people think I will definitely rebel against the system because I don't even have much tolerance for the law as it stands today.


Alex

It's the same as motivating yourself in anything else.

However people are usually motivated when they want to do something, so after your first projection you will probably immediately have much more motivation to have more.


Alex

Why should a relationship with a women be sinful?  Jesus walked the path when he was on earth and I believe modern Gnosis in that alchemy (a sexual practice) is required to do this.  So I reckon Jesus must have.  This isn't a bad thing, I don't know why people always take it as a joke.

From what I have read Jesus had already completed The Work when he descended to the physical world 2000 years ago so he would not have practiced any sexual acts if that source is correct.

On this topic, sexual alchemy is "making love" so it would not be a sin because it is not done out of desire.

I think it would be pretty amazing to have the amount of awareness that Jesus has, I don't think you would be thinking about sins at the time because from your perspective the world would be a lot different to how we see it in the limited scope we do now.


Alex

I'm from Australia too.


Alex

I was only introduced to NEW almost 2 years after I had learnt about how to stimulate my third eye chakra. Now, of course I understand the importance of secondary chakras but I don't have any luck with them. I will do as you suggested and read the whole book. I was attempting to use it more as a workbook beforehand.

Since I have already been working with my primary chakras for a few years shouldn't my secondary chakras begin developing by now? I will try to do the exercises on them again but I think it could be too late for me to develop them now first since I can already activate most primary centres.

As for Kundalini, there is no way to stop it is there? Will working intensely on my secondary centres help? Even without energy work my root chakra is active the whole night and I get these sensations more and more often including some other "supposed" kundalini awakening symptoms.


Thanks
Alex

I don't think negativity is the right way to react, but all you can really do is try to create a positive outcome for everyone. If you exhaust all of your options then I don't think you have much of a choice. 0% negativity is a good goal. But realistically, if someone attacks you or your family and the only option you have is to defend yourself then it's the same story. I believe that striving for such ideals would be enough, even if they are not possible 100% of the time.


Alex

[So why do I believe this is important?]

I was thinking about why the world is the way it is, why the world isn't perfect, and why the "norm" in the present day does not encompass the "actual". I believe the answer lies in the fact that conceptual understanding in one area is not always shared by everyone else, and that reasonable judgement is based on "core" conceptual understanding of the majority of people.

A short while ago I considered "what makes a good reading?" Whether it is a book/article or journal, it doesn't matter. I came to the conclusion that a text is never "good" or "bad" material.

The only measure of a texts usefulness is the level to which it can be exploited by any one particular reader. I could read a book about Biomedical Science and probably not have much use from it because I wouldn't understand any of it. None of it would be relevant to me. However to someone interested in the field the understanding s/he deduces from it would be beneficial. Hence information is as good as useless until understanding is made from it.

So why do I believe this is important?

Well because subjects such as spirituality fall just outside the edges of social judgement of a "reasonable mentality". The inclination to write this very thread came from me considering why subjects such as spirituality are considered outside of the norm of society. We can safely say from looking over the past 6,000 years of history that contemporary thinking is contrived.

I believe that reasonable judgement is based on "core" thoughts. The concepts, ideas and reasons that we develop are based on the framework of our original core thought system. So if our core thought system is programmed to associate success with such things as affluence, intelligence and elegance then the thoughts that come after that will be based and related to the original thought process.

I have gained a lot of understanding from reading works by Robert Bruce and other authors even though the information may be foreign to many people. From creating new core thought patterns about topics in spirituality I am able to comprehend writings in a much larger scope, whereas someone new to these topics would hold the ideas in sturdy apprehension and rejection.

For this reason it is clear why spirituality, OBE, multi-dimensional reality, energy ect. are foreign to so many people. Isn't building new thought patterns to broaden understanding the very essence of having an open mind?

Comprehension in the field of computers was before recently too a foreign area of knowledge. When the basic thought forms were learnt by people they were familiar with computer environments and the information age quickly integrated into modern reality. If people stood oblivious to this new field of potential then it would have not fostered so successfully. Asking a person who has never heard of computers to carry out a simple software instruction would probably lead to you being labelled insane. The scope of reference of the person being addressed is too narrow in that particular direction to comprehend, process, and evaluate the information you have given them.

I have read so many online articles that use very vague terms and yet I am often able to exploit the valuable information from them to re-enforce my already synthesized knowledge in a particular scope of understanding. You have to admit that when you read some articles about spirituality they make no sense at all unless you have the previous conceptual knowledge to interpret and synthesize them.

The problem of spirituality vs. materialism is that the core thought systems are at the deepest levels of the psyche. Spirituality will not manifest as an actual reality in this reality until we change how we think, not just what we think. This involves going to the root of our psyche and changing the core thought processes to encompass the ideas that would allow for a new/higher reasonable judgement.


Alex

Hi

At the beginning of Robert Bruce's article: Healing With The Heart, he mentions that he healed a child's eyesight so that he could see with 20/20 vision. Does any body know how he went about doing it?


Thanks
Alex

I'm not having any luck with NEW in terms of moving my energy in secondary centres. However I recently read Robert Bruce's Healing With The Heart tutorial and I was interested by some of the ideas.

He states that when a primary chakra reaches a critical point of energy it strobes and releases all of its energy.

Is this referring to the build-up of energy over a long period of time or is this a "per session" experience?

I am curious about why I can't move energy in my secondary centres. I think I am almost completely unaware of my energy body. Nonetheless I can stimulate some of my primary centres just by focusing on the areas. Currently I have only been able to stimulate all the main areas except for the throat. Even though I haven't been able to stimulate any other [secondary] areas I have had random energy sensations outside of my control (such as energy pressing down lightly on my face and energy crawling like spiders over my back).

My question is why am I able to stimulate my primary centres and have sporadic energy sensations over my body but have no control over my secondary centres? I have tried NEW several times with no success because I can't progress past the first few tutorials.


Thanks
Alex

NodesOfYesod, your post was very inspirational for me.


Alex

Duration: 10-20 minutes
Night/Day/Both: Night
Music Yes/No (Music a detriment or helpful): No. I haven't tried it with music.
Where you meditate: Bedroom, lotus position.
How long you've been meditation: On and off about 1 year.
Positive results: I feel great and completely refreshed afterwards.

What do I do when meditating: I close my eyes and focus on the blackness. With proper concentration after a few minutes the blackness spreads and I feel like I am within it and it is everywhere in a boundless state at the same time. I try to hold it for as long as possible.


Alex

Here.

This is why Astral Pulse is such a great place.


I wear a chakra shirt at times so I think people would be able to gather that I'm interested in these kinds of things. I have noticed that more people in Australia than in most places around the world are interested in these topics, I'm not sure why.
Perhaps we should make an astral pulse symbol or sign to make it more obvious about who believes or is open minded to OBE, astral projection ect. So far, no-one I have talked to casually about astral projection hasn't laughed at me.


Alex

Didn't he get shot and still survived after that?

Anyway, if there is a reason for the existence of physical reality, as I believe there is, then there is no easy way to escape the struggles in life. Consequently if this was a way to attain true and permanent spiritual freedom from things such as depression then no one would learn anything.


Alex

Non-existence is unattainable, it is an illusion. The notion belongs to the mind, not reality.

To quote your signature:

"you're not going to die; you're already as dead as you'll ever be".


Alex

In terms of energy work: to increase the amount of energy resonating through each of my chakras and to foster the psychic faculties (such as healing) that develop from that.

In general: the same as Wells, to awake and become more conscious of myself and others, to find everlasting peace and impartial comprehension within awareness. And as a result of this to travel through the Astral and higher planes freely.

Btw Telos that's a pretty tough goal you set for yourself.


Alex

Everything is connected. Seperation is an illusion.

Today many perspectives about Enlightenment exist. I have noticed that many people have posted here and on other discussion boards alluding to modern esoteric and Gnostic teachings. I would like to summarize what I have learnt from these teachings regarding Enlightenment. I know that many people here are probably experienced with Enlightenment and spiritual progress, and I would like your opinions on this. I am trying to form a synthesis about Enlightenment but I haven't found much solid and substantial information on the web. Obviously I can only provide a brief summary and outline of the information I have learnt, but you are welcome to research the teachings yourself and then comment on them.

The Gnostic movement essentially calls for one path to Spiritual Enlightenment which is only walked upon with the concurrent and consistent practice of the three keys, namely:

1. The Death
2. The Birth
3. The Sacrifice

The Death is practiced with external and internal awareness. Present moment awareness must be practiced throughout the day. With this awareness we begin to distinguish "lower" parts of ourselves. When these parts are noticed a prayer is said to eliminate the part of ourselves. Once the part is eliminated it becomes consciousness, and so our level of awareness is increased. The aim is to transform the subconscious parts of ourselves into consciousness and eliminate our lower selves to allow our higher self to manifest. The ultimate goal is to become 100% conscious with no subconscious elements.

The Birth is the practice of sexual magic. It is said that the consciousness manifests in the body and expresses itself through the chakras. During the practice of The Birth the energies are transmuted and are used to convert our lunar physical, astral and mental bodies into solar bodies. Later along The Path these bodies are transmuted into golden physical, astral, mental and causal bodies. The practice of the sexual magic also raises the Kundalini up along the spine and permanently activates the chakras. Kundalini must be raised in each of the bodies.

To the best of my understanding The Sacrifice consists simply of being selfless in every day life.

With the practice of all 3 keys we are given initiations and tests in the Astral. The Path continues until it has been completed fully and the initiate reaches absolute spiritual enlightenment. Unless a person eliminates at least roughly 47% of their subconsciousness they fall into the Abyss after death, which is depicted as Hell.

This is the basic outline of the modern Gnostic teaching. It may not appear clear because it can take months of reading to learn about the subject fully. However I am interested in your opinions about the accuracy of this information based on your own experience in terms of spiritual enlightenment, whether you have studied Gnosis before or not. Please share your opinions.

Yup.

Thanks MrBurgo..

The only thing that has worked for exporting to my iPod is iTunes, which I don't like all that much, I haven't tried Real player 10 though.

I've only listened to the first part of the track and it worked well for visualization. It's much different to Boxed Nirvana though. It reminds me of the centring exercise taught on the Silva UltraMind seminar because it copies much of the technique from it.


Alex

That makes some sense in the fact that when people are so oblivious of their actions putting them through their own oversights is the only way to bring the fault into their awareness.

This is the easy way though, and ultimately we should aim to act with sincerity to make space within people for the realization of fault to be brought to light within them. Unfortunately in reality this is not always the case.
