Hi Nameless,
no big project on the go but a few things brewing... I want to make a bird this year, an eagle .

An Eagle? That would be interesting. You are already a Adept when it comes to feathering"! 

  You already know my current events with those "air based" creatures lately. I love Eagles and they seem to be a messenger to me lately.

I think anything you touch turns to gold, dear!   Can't wait to see your next project!  

I attribute the tapes 100%

You mean the fact that you have been a member here since February 2010 and have over 500 posts here on this very Forum, has nothing to do with it? 

 Today MJ and I received a incredibly generous gift from a good friend. It immediately got me thinking of helping others in need in ways that I possibly could. So, in my Phase/soak session today, that was my entire focus.

Immediately the image of Hurricane Florence came to mind. About a month ago, during the Thailand Cave incident a friend of mine here PMed me about creating a thread to help the boys find safety. I told him that I was already shown that the episode/event there, would have happy ending, with lots of lessons learned. I even told him that there was likely Movie producers there setting up to begin telling the story in film. Thankfully it did have a happy ending, except of course for the brave Navy seal who perished in the rescue.

I wondered, how could we possibly make a difference with this Hurricane and for some reason, the Hurricane I was now viewing from above, began to churn the opposite direction, in turn, taking it's ferocity away. I was shown that a intent such as this could make a difference, but only if we could get a huge collective onboard with it. We only have a few days to "lessen" the blow to land. So, share this with whoever you can. Make this go viral. Let's see if indeed we can make a difference.

The Experiment
Every time you go to reach for your cell phone today, instead, close your eyes for a moment. Calm your mind, then visualize that Hurricane rotating "counterclockwise" from above. Watch it as it churns ahead. Now, we want to enter it. Bring your focus down until you are inside of it. You don't need to see anything, just know that you are there. Now change your focus to moving your body in clockwise rotation. You may, or should say, you will likely experience a actual OBE exit symptom here, it may be a etheric tactile sensation or just a feeling of a deeper awareness. Stay the course. Keep focusing on that clockwise rotation until you lose your focus period. Then open your eyes and continue your day. Do this as much as you can do in the next two days. You can even visualize or feel the Hurricane being effected.
Like I said, share this with whoever you can. Together as a collective, we can make a difference, but only if we can become that collective.

This could create a "Miracle" and lead to opening people eyes or it can "crash and burn". We won't know until we try. We have nothing to lose, but those people that we would help have everything to gain by this!  Even slowing the storm a bit makes a difference.

If you have any other ideas on ways to make a difference here, please post them!
Thank You! 

You are already showing troll behaviour of someone who I dont like.

If you had clicked on the link you'd be able to quickly see what the subliminal messages are:

For example: http://www.brainsync.com/audio-store/subliminals/astral-travel.html

Careful there! Baro-san is only giving you his opinion. He is very intelligent and does not make hasty decisions. He is right though about mindlessly opening yourself up to subliminal messages. We get enough of them daily now as it is.

I trust Kelly's programs. I listened to a video she made years ago where she shared her personal intents. Last night I found that the four pack that I purchased from her years ago did not have subliminal messages in it, like Volgerle mentioned. One of them used a ocean setting of crashing waves though.

And yes, you can drive perfectly fine on some of her tapes

People say the same thing about "texting" and driving as well. Your focus should stay 100% on driving. Binaural Beats are made to kind of scramble your focus. One frequency works on one ear, another on the other, creating a third in the middle. It's all about relaxing and tuning out/turning off. That's the opposite of what you want to do while driving.  

["that we are willing to learn!"]

That we dont know anything
That we wont know anything
That we dont knw what are we aproaching to.

Add one last important thing to last list and that is "that we are willing to learn!"

That sure sounds too easy to work, I mean I'm always lost in thought, while meditating I forget I'm meditating and end up thinking about random stuff, I don't see how these thoughts could end in a projection. For example I may be thinking about posting a reply to you, how could I get so deep into my reply formulation that I project?!

The way to do it is to lose yourself in thought, so deeply, that when you lose that focus, you find you are already "there". You see that the darkness before your eyes has somewhat expanded and changed in ways. Now set your new intent and reap the rewards of your effort!  

Many sports athletes speak of having OBEs while deeply in focus during their sports conditioning. They call it "reaching the zone"! 

Sounds easy doesn't it? That's the problem with all these techniques, they all "sound" easy to do. The problem is, you are going against all the mental programming of being physical here that you have received your entire life. It's hard to just turn that off. Hard, but not impossible. With work you can and will achieve your goals. Just know that!  

I simply say "more light" and it brightens up perfectly. It took a few obes before it worked though but since it started working my obes are usually plenty bright to begin with. The stars especially are amazing. Good luck!

Ask and you shall receive! 

When in "thought equals action" mode, intents/thoughts are instantaneous! The key is to learn to control those thoughts. 

As far as I know, those are thought forms created by ourselves. We give them "life" and power. We shouldn't ...

A "Wise Man"!  

Nevermind. It shows more links for more mp3s after you load the first tape in your cart. It says "you may be interested in theses mp3s as well." There is one titled "Lucid dreaming" and one titled "Astral projection." Which one did you use/prefer? This could get expensive at ten bucks per mp3!

There are many titles there. If you wish to go this route, just pick one that defines your goal.

Due to being very unfocused and bad at meditation I have lots of random ideas and thoughts which is often beneficial for me. Being good at meditation would likely result in having a quieter mind with fewer thoughts.

I have found that you don't need a "quiet mind" at all to project. My techniques rely on utilizing that monkey mind to your advantage. So much so that I want you to lose yourself in thought!

[NO"]

Due to being very unfocused and bad at meditation I have lots of random ideas and thoughts which is often beneficial for me. Being good at meditation would likely result in having a quieter mind with fewer thoughts. Some people say it's good some say it's bad for creativity.
Anyone notice any difference since improving at meditation?

My answer is a definitive "NO". People that would even entertain the idea that meditation is bad for creativity, obviously have no clue what meditation really is!  

"Bad for creativity". Tell that to Nicholai Tesla, Einstein and many of the other greats throughout time, lol! 

Might try this as I just found it for free.  Though I don't see how it could help with conscious projection. The only times I've had success were when I was obsessed with ap and it staying in my subconsciousness made LDs possible so this should work like that.

They are very calming to the mind. They won't project "for" you though. They will just help set the stage, per se. 

Okay, so I tried for many years trying to go OBE through meditation and other tricks and flicks.  I had very limited success. One very short lucid dream and a few half OBE's.  I finally just gave up ion it because it was so time consuming.

So a few weeks ago I came across Kelly Howell's site and I decided to give it another try.
I'm glad I made that decision because I'm only 4 weeks into her tapes and I've already had 3 profound lucid dreams.

The way her tapes work is they are filled with subliminal message, so all you have to do is just listen to them and your subconscious mind will do the rest and bring forth your AP or LD.

Lucid dreaming: http://www.brainsync.com/audio-store/subliminals/lucid-dreaming.html
Astral projection: http://www.brainsync.com/audio-store/subliminals/astral-travel.html

You dont even have to meditate to listen to them.  You can listen to them while surfing the web, watching TV....etc....etc.
Some of the tapes you can even listen to while driving.

I've had more success with LD in the last 4 weeks then I had the entire 8 years before that

I can vouch for your comments above as well. Years ago when I first started my Journey's down this path, I too bought programs from Kelly Howe. The Brainsync lineup is very good. I then uploaded them to my MP3 player and use/d them often. I never noticed the subliminal messages, since they were well hidden in the Music, but they always seemed to "prime the pump" for me and very quickly as well.

Nowadays, she has many more new tracks.  She is still active in my email listings, which says a lot for her. The first thing I do on a Forum is to turn email notifications off. I don't like Spam mail and don't sign up for websites that ask my email anymore either, which means I don't sign up for websites anymore, lol, since all of them want a email address now. But Kelly's mail is always welcome.

awww!!! you are so warm my friends and man do I miss EIC I am over it and I know where to find you all anyway
it may be not as slick and easy to post here but the heart and souls are definitively here and it makes this place welcoming.
I will send my message to Karin from you Lucidity and no need for Facebook, its fun but can also be like the wild west. if it was not to keep in touch with a few, I don't think I would stay on that platform. I have it but it will be only for entertainment for now. 
working on a few other ideas for this winter and will come here more and more .
Thanks for the compliments Szaxx, Lumaza, and Nameless I hope to get back in the shop this winter, I took a big break and need some inspiration...
Patience and perciverance are my word of the day... weeks or even maybe month now that I think of it... :-oJeez I better get back to work.
anyway lots of hopes and dreams on the go ... and yes keep playing is the key...
a bientot...

To me the EIC Forum was kind of a advanced "Astral Pulse" Forum. I always wanted to have deeper conversations here and many times I attempted to jump start them. But as usual, they just disappeared into the Astral Pulse "Abyss". I guess people don't practice here like they use to. Must have more important things to do now. Many of the one's that I still I talk to that used to be avid practitioners have found themselves blocked for some reason. I see these blocks as being caused by other things bombarding their focus these days. I truly see that for some reason there is a designed effort by someone/some faction to actually stop people from looking within. Instead they want to be and control your entire world/reality.

 I find that focusing on simple shapes and colors creates spontaneous "mental associations" that can quickly become your new target of focus. The same occurs with simple directions like "Forward, Backwards, Left, Right and Up and Down". All those lead to the tactile feeling of motion as well.
You need to practice it often though, so that it all becomes "second nature" to you.

I hear you Lumaza. I guess everyone either reaches that place where they want to really explore or not. I sometimes see signs of people detaching from their devices or trying to at least so even that 'flavor of the day' I think one day will no longer hold their attention. Wonder what will be next.

I kind of get it though, I was that way about taking pictures once. Then one day my kids told me just put down the camera and walk away. Haha, I did and found I much prefer truly experiencing their laughter and joy to having a few (too many) photos. I now rarely even think of my camera.

I'm actually glad you are back from the fair, been missing your interaction round here. Relax a while and catch up, talk later.

Hugs

Just the same, it was a great thread though. It had some very good replies in it!  Things that really do have "relevance", especially now.

This is very interesting Kodemaster. I do wonder where you are at now with this.

Lol, I know you are trying to get conversations going again Nameless, but Kodemaster hasn't logged on since 2011 . On the other threads that you just recently replied to, "Visionquest, the name of the person that made that thread, hasn't been active since 2004 and "Melody" isn't even a member here anymore .

You can see this by looking at their profile and what the date is beside the "Last Active" prompt.

Hi Plume, nice to see you here. You go and have fun, that's what it's all about lol.
For everyone else, you should see the masterpieces of art Plume creates, they're awe inspiring.

I second that Szaxx. Plume's "Masterpieces" are indeed "awe inspiring"! 

still around... today is Saturday and yes it's my nap in the morning and yes again all the symptoms were there  but I think I started to move out and felt frustrated that I could not see clearly, so I said clarity a few time. That brought me back right away  a bit disappointed but thats ok. I had no intention  to do anything, had  good dreams after.
Anyway ... should be back next Saturday. 

See you ......

Hey Plume, you are doing great!  Keep on keeping on! 

Can someone please tell me a technique or a book or something?

Superman, you likely know what I am going to say, but I will say it anyway. I find that the two most powerful visual targets are simple geometric shapes and color. I used them in the beginning steps of my "Doorway" thread, before I began altering it to different techniques.
http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/welcome_to_astral_consciousness/the_doorway-t46013.0.html

What I enjoyed so much about focusing on simple colors and geometric shapes is that they "always" created some kind of mental trigger or visual. If I stayed with the image, it would soon morph into something anew. If I stayed with that scenario, I got to watch that evolve as well and then suddenly, I wasn't conscious of my physical body anymore and felt like I was "elsewhere". Hence, Astral projection 101! 

Now if I could just get to that state of consciousness 

Just remember to be "passive" with your awareness. It's like a balancing act. Too aware, you awaken for real. Too "into it", you fall deeper and lose your conscious awareness of what it occurring.

Passively observing is like being in the middle of a "see -saw". You need to find that sweet spot where absolute balance is, then you need to maintain it for a short period of time, unabated.

[like Archimedes, he used the "wet method" of soaking in a bathtub full of hot water, going into a "twilight zone" to get flashes or ideas]

I read today a paragraph that reminded me of your phase/soak method:

Itzhak Bentov was a mechanical engineer, inventor, author and mystic and explorer of cosmic consciousness.

He was able to combine his curious mind with a courageous soul to explore the unknown realms of cosmic consciousness with just wit and humor as his luggage. His plan was to publish some of his work as a comic strip instead of a cosmic trip! Bentov had two ways to prepare himself for his "trips," which were not drug-induced.

Initially, like Archimedes, he used the "wet method" of soaking in a bathtub full of hot water, going into a "twilight zone" to get flashes or ideas that he scribbled down on a notepad. Later he favored the "drier method" of meditation and relaxed concentration. He wrote:

"I could attain remote reality by simply visualizing myself to be there, and there I was..."

Thank you for the share Baro-san! 

I have only been back a few days, from my State Fair vendor gig. I did immediately attempt to get some info on "Itzhak". First I looked for your tube videos and found this one here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReZt1YcFehQ

Unfortunately, I was so tired, I only made it through about 15 mins of it before I found I had went to sleep. His part is very good. The lady after him, seems to be what lulled me to sleep. Her voice seems to be very relaxing, lol. Itzhak was hard to understand at first. So, I had to really focus on what he was saying. He likes to use graphs though. Those were interesting.

THIS is a wonderful topic and conversation for anyone who missed it or like a refresher.

As to the original topic my answer is no I don't. I have often had a mind split which is a phenomenal thing to have happen and very difficult to explain as words just aint enough. There are times when I can easily project with zero effort, it just happens and as has been said it is a very 'comfortable' feeling, there is no contention with this at all. But that particular energy does not always seem to be available. Where that energy comes from and how it's generated is currently beyond my understanding, I just accept it when it's available.

I know this though, if that particular energy were available 24/7 I doubt I would ever sleep. Way to fascinating!!

Thank you to all participants in this discussion and to the OP for starting it. Love

There seems to be a lot of "rehashing" of old topics here. It's like the way Hollywood just keeps remaking the same movie over and over again. Is there nothing new in the world of Astral Projection? I say "no".

I just finished 12 days of vending at our State Fair, like I do every year and I have to say, focus is dead. People are so hooked to their phones and social media that they can't enjoy what they are doing and where they are doing it, at that moment in time.

I can't tell you how many times while demonstrating the items that we sell, that someone put their phone, without asking, just so they could video what I was doing. We sell hand carved croaking frogs and various animal/musical instruments, that MJ and I design. We have been vendors there for 16 years now and every year I see that the ability to focus on one thing alone, is getting worse.

I have spoken to others that teach AP as well and they are finding the same thing. There are many more interested in this practice, which is good. Unfortunately many also latch on because it's the "flavor of the day" or they think it might be cool to "try it". Unfortunately, their lack of "sustained" focus and general "staying" power, leads to their failure.

It's a kind of re-orientation test, a quick one, to see if you recognize where you are; and if you are successful, as you were, then it is ended.

Tests, quests and challenges! Not only do we face them here in the physical, but they are also the chosen form of training and teaching in the NP as well.

Condolences Sammie, sorry to hear that. I hope you are all alright.

Sammie, I send my condolences as well. For the last few weeks our circle here also has been involved in life's trials and tribulations.
