and now You can avoid the creator, but you cannot say He doesn't exist. Whether or not you accept the creator's authority is your business; but you cannot say there is no creator.

For example :- there are so many outlaws who say, "We don't want to obey the government." If you don't like the government, that is your business. But there is a government -- you can't deny that.
The analogy breaks down when you're talking about something non-physical to something physical.  Government is something tangible and physical.  A "creator" of this reality isn't tangible, it's non-physical. 

For myself, I CAN'T avoid the creator... because that creator is *ME*.  It's *YOU*.  It's *EVERYONE*. 

But then you'd ask, "but aren't I physical?"... the meat part of you isn't the creator.  It's the non-physical aspect of your existence which is the creator.  The meat sack which you use to interact with this reality is part of that creation.

I simply will never understand how people could do this kind of thing in the name of their religion... it completely baffles my mind, how people can get religion so mixed up with killing others. 

My heart goes out to the families and friends of people who have lost someone in these horrific events in Paris this evening.  :(

I give any astral projector that can do this to take over my body for a day. All i ask is that you don't knock me unconcious or kick me out of my body.
You have absolutely no idea what goes on here, do you?  :)

I can tell you this...
If any "real yogi" or "monk high in the Himalayas" would complain about how "you" meditate... then they aren't as masterful as you think they are.  ;)

The point of meditation isn't to pick a time and place to sit down and quietly turn inwards.  I mean, yes, it CAN be that... however, that's all "ritual".  Anything which you feel you MUST do in order to be "successful" at meditation is your "ritual".

In the end, my suggestion is this: the more you can remove the "ritual" from your meditation, the closer you can be to living in the "now". 
Which means that you can have your focus pulled in a 100 different directions at once, yet still retain that meditative awareness.  You can retain that calm (grounded) and centered perspective.

It is worth noting though that the past scientific perspective is a materialist paradigm, and the change in understanding referenced in the article is within the same materialist paradigm, so it isn't any kind of change of view at all.

It is akin to saying that I was once a Sunni Muslim, but that I converted to a different sect of Sunni-ism. The change of mind here is completely internal to the pre-existing belief. Put another way, it is like Catholic Cardinals arguing about whether taking wine and taking wafer are identical forms of communion. Neither of the Cardinals is talking about becoming a Buddhist- it is a matter completely internal to Catholic dogmas, and the answer will be a Catholic one regardless.

So not much changing here  :roll:
And that's always the point I'm trying to drive home regarding this stuff.
If you look at consciousness from the perspective of this physical reality, then you're never going to understand it.

Once you begin to see from the perspective that this physical reality isn't actually physical... and it's actually a byproduct of consciousness itself, then the puzzle pieces suddenly begin to fit together.

It's all a matter of perspective.

Well typically i think one starts in a sitting position. After that they quiet their thoughts to a minimum and that creates a meditation affect.
Not really sure but that's my two sentence description of meditation  :?
That's as good a place to start as any. 

My suggestion though would be don't focus so much on quieting your thoughts to a minimum.  Try more... observing the thoughts and allowing them to pass by unimpeded?  :)

See what kind of "meditation effects" occur to you when you do this.

Thanks for your answer first Bluefirephoenix, I just also ask because some people talk about we dreaming about projecting and say its different from the actual projection, so from this I suppose I already achieved projection since I was aware it was a dream and was exploring this dream world always with the same level of awareness.
Bingo.  :)

See how much more free you are when you drop the labels?

Most people are much better at projecting than they even realize... usually having MANY more experiences than they are willing to otherwise believe they have, simply because they hold so tightly onto "labels".

Basically an exercise in which you stand still in a position while focusing on something mentally
That's as good a place to begin as any then!
Give it a shot and let us know how it goes.

so any tips on how to start meditating, ive done research and there are multiple explanations of meditation and im not what to do :? :? :? :? :? :? :?
Let's start off with this... what do you think meditation is?

I have read that trataka is a good method for opening the third eye. Trataka is essentially gazing at a candle flame.
"Just staring" at anything is going to do you absolutely no good until you realize WHAT it is you're actually trying to do.
Go stare at grass growing...

You learn to focus your mind. 
Once you learn to do that, you can apply it towards learning to focus your awareness away from your physical senses.

Xanth, please try to breakdown any of the obe's in the above link.
You misunderstand.  Those are spontaneous projections.  There is no method, they "just projected".

Give me a Method or a Technique, and I'll break it down for you.  :)

Quote from: Szaxx on November 05, 2015, 11:35:59
Would your answer have been the same if the topic asked for all the methods to attain a non physical projection?
Nope, but it wouldn't be much longer.  :)

When you break down any projection method into it's basic parts, you quickly realize that it's all about finding a "focus" and then allowing that focus to take your senses away from this physical reality. 

That actually might sound like a fun game... perhaps I could start a new thread for it.
Provide me with a link or a write up of a method and I'll break it down for you into HOW it works to get you projecting.  Sound fun?  :)

well, from that point of view yes, we are everything, but as i can say, very few people who can meditate can go into the deepest part of their minds... as into getting to the astral plains (as i was told were called) as every spiritual being from  gods to demons have been in those plains, from what i learned, ''heaven'' and ''hell'' do exist, but in a more spiritual form than anything else, though don't think the world is connected on a flat surface, think of it as a drop of water, connected like H2O, but its connected to everything that your mind may access... some can even go to their own inside world, as such there is the ''creation plain'' as to what ive heard of it, and ive been there... nothing special but making a new plain.
That's an interesting perspective.

My own personal perspective has grown and changed so much, in even the last 5 years... that if I was to speak to myself 5 years ago, I wouldn't have much idea what I was saying.  hehe

I will point out that you make mention to that which "you have heard", which tells me that you have very little direct experience with projection yourself.  Now, I don't mean that to offend... we all have to start somewhere.  I'm sure we can help you and Krystel to experience the non-physical in a more stable manner, which should hopefully allow you to re-adjust your perspective in a more meaningful way than having to rely upon other people's experiences.  :)

Personal experiences are far more moving than second hand knowledge.

Well, a big welcome to both of you.  I hope you find what you're looking for here.  :)

I'll just correct you quickly...

You can do all that stuff (yes, I do believe you), not because you're a "demon", but because you're consciousness.  You are part of everything.

Everyone can do all that stuff.  What stops most people is belief.  :)

Also, there probably isn't much you could say which would "freak me out".  ;)

Can you elaborate?
This one got me with a WTF  :lol:

Phasing, non physical awareness only.
Subconscious instant programming, not easy to find words to explain but you get an amazing experience from it.
Don't ya just love my one-word answers?  :D  I love them.  LOL

Well, I was thinking about the question asked... and it hit me that anything you can experience is a projection.  Which makes "experience" THE projection.  :)

Sorry for the trouble getting your account created.  :)
Glad you stuck it out.

So... what makes you think you're a "demon"?

Not to be argumentative or combative Xanth, but if you haven't experienced a exit from a bodily point of view then I can understand why it is hard for you to comprehend what I am saying here.
Not argumentative, nor combative.  However, extremely arrogant.  What's that saying about making assumptions?   :)

Clearly, what I'm suggesting means that I've never experienced what YOU are talking about.  Clearly that is the case, right?

QuoteBut I think we should entertain people's experiences and also their opinions
Yup, let's entertain people's experiences... unless Xanth shares his... right? 

How about we stop assuming and let people say their opinions... and leave it at that? 
Sometimes everyone isn't against you, they just have different experiences and have come to their conclusions through what you've already experienced.
