To the original poster - sorry for interrupting here!

Frank,

I just read the last page of it the hypnosis/ap thing. I'm not sure what to say! I haven't tried to ap in awhile. Really, I dont use hypnosis for "AP purposes". It's just something I like to get into when I am in need of MASSIVE RELAXATION! haha.

Although, about a year ago I remember going on PalTalk and having a private message with one of the Reiki folks. Supposedly what she was doing was getting me to AP (at the time I was so ANXIOUS to go OOB). It was basically a guided imagination thing. Obviously, I wasn't getting into it enough and therefore, I didn't ap. (Let me say, at the time I was sitting in a  very uncomfortable chair, while my mother was watching TV)

Anywho. I think hypnosis is great and if it helps people go "out of body" then that's just spectacular. After all, hypnosis is VERY relaxing. As for me, I feel like ive "outgrown" the ap thing and now I am just chillen on tropical island while sippin on a virgin strawberry dackeri. (I've finally broke free from my box)

Until next time - Leilah.

Welcome to Writers Corner! / Good writing schools
February 11, 2006, 14:17:23
I'm thinking of going to school for writing. I just can't find any good ones!Does anyone know of universities that have good creative writing programs? I've tried searching it several times but it's all just scattered information.

Even if the school you know of is not in the US, that's fine. It'd be great to go to university out of country - although I am not sure how one would go about doing it.

I've only got a year left before I have to apply to schools. Questions, Comments, or Concerns? Shoot.

Welcome to Dreams! / Fires
February 11, 2006, 14:08:15
Somewhat long...

Olympia & Palo Verde were connected. I kept forgetting this every time I worried my friends wouldn't  be able to see the beautiful Olympia I used to go to. The only difference between the Olympia in the dream and the one in waking life was that it was dark green and there were bricks. If anything, it looked more like a Palo Verde type of school as Olympia is actually all white.

Anyway, a fire broke out and everyone was panicky for a second. I called 911 but they never came. As I dialed, I started thinking maybe it wouldn't work as we were far away from the city. Then all of a sudden, this ROTC(?) girl used her survival skills and quickly rushed to the store and bought a hose. With it, she executed the fire. Many people thanked her and I thought she was great do so such a thing.

As the fire was going on, there was the white van and my mom, dad and sister? were in it. There was a sheet covering the whole van and the second time it passed me by, I urgently took the sheet off so that my parents would see the fire ahead of them. Finally, they grew aware of it.

Then, I had another dream where I was in Mr. Reads' class, although the room looked nothing like it does in waking life. He asked me to write on the board – to write down the instructions needed for the future fire in his classroom. When I finished and came back to my seat. The girl sitting behind me told me I misspelled some things and went to the board to correct it. I spelled guaranteed as "Guranteed" and water as "weash't" (something like that). I remember thinking, jeez! What's wrong with me, how can I spell water like that.. that's weird. Then I rushed back to the board because I forgot to write the MAIN things I was supposed to write down in the first place: THE ABC's!! (Something I recently learned in my CPR class I'm taking in school)

Then, the fire broke lose in the classroom. I think it turned into my CPR class because I recall thinking how much I liked the CPR class, as it was such a major change from the rest of the day. I recall feeling the heat of the fire & looking around thinking how much I liked the realness of it all.

-Twas strange I didn't snap out of it and become lucid. I wonder why I hold myself back. What? Would it be too shocking for me? Hmph.


-But yes. I've noticed I've been having a lot of fire related dreams. As in, these types of fires, and massive explosions. It's weird because I haven't been watching any TV shows/movies that would trigger such dreams. Who knows, maybe someone on earth has been thinking a lot about explosions/fires and I'm just picking up on it! (let's hope not)

Exclip -

I love that feeling! A long time ago I would lay in bed and after awhile I would start feeling as if I was swaying. Sometimes wondered if it was the bed (dont think so).

It reminds me of floating on the ocean. Even though its been quite some time sicne I've done that.

But still...It's a lovely sensation. Especially when the waves of warm tingles come. However, I dont think theyre vibrations or anything.

Mmm. Does anyone else experience those random, sudden tingles while meditating/in trance/whatever?
#181
I'm scared I'll get diarrhea again.
#182
Just curious, and you don't HAVE to answer, but do you think you have energy blockages?

If so, what makes you think so?

What are the sensations associated with these energy blocks?

I find it really weird seeing you guys on here. Its like wait, you guys are REAL, LIVING PEOPLE??

I don't know. Its just all so strange.. lol

I'm so used to thinking the avatar IS the person. Even though, in most cases that is not true. But still man. weird.

anyone feel the same about this?

i CANT be the ONLY one.

QuoteYou don't know when your in the good state of mind.

QuoteIf you didnt have vibration its surely because you didnt come to that stage.

 ...what are you talking about? :crazy3:
#187
Sepultura123,

I don't really think I was "projecting" - well sort of. Sometimes, the vibrations - over time that is- seem to fade away. In this case, I can't really explain any better than I did the first time.. of how I made the vibrations go away. It wasn't even MAKING them go away, As I said earlier - trying to do such a thing has never worked for me.

If you happen to experience the vibrations, I guess you could just try experimenting for yourself and see what works.


Knightlight,

There was a period when there was just no vibrations whatsoever. But as I said before, now its just crazy. I've experienced them many times however, I'm guessing that because I haven't dealt with them in awhile - they have gotten "worse"... as in stronger and more tickle (cobwebs) and all that mambo jumbo. But it was definitely cool being able to move past them.

Really, I barely have lucid dreams. Maybe a couple a year. We'll have to wait and see if that changes. After all, I've been writing every single dream down for the past one month! lol. Tis sad, but I'm just getting back on my feet.


Anyway. I think I'm going to go practice now. Farewell.

I bet it was exciting, as it was for me.


Congrats!

OK. First, I am not sure if this has been asked already but here goes.

-What are the steps to post a picture?

-What are the steps in order to have an avatar that is larger than.. the avatars capacity?

(As in, how do i re-size it if i can't save the picture in the first place- i can only use the web-site's address.. & Does the picture not re-size automatically, or do you have to do it yourself until its the right size?)

Thanks!

Awhile ago I was on Edgar Cayce's site browsing around. I recall a parent saying that their child would talk in German while she was asleep. She started to wonder whether her kid used to be a German in another carnation. I myself used to talk in my sleep, although I don't know if I still do. But, it was usually just incoherent words rather than another language.

As far as end of the world type of stuff, I've had many dreams like that. Most of them were floods, however, over the past couple of weeks I've had 3 dreams that included massive explosions.

Welcome to Out of Body Experiences! / Thoughts
February 05, 2006, 00:40:21
Same as MisterJingo, pretty much every - lets say nonphysical experience I have had - occured when I WAS NOT EVEN THINKING about my body. If we can learn to forget about the body, relaxing the body is not even needed. Just gotta learn to focus somewhere else (inwards).

So Rob, I completely agree with you.

Lately, the more I have been practicing phasing, the more I've been experiencing the infamous vibrations. And I will admit, it has gotten me irritated –which I know is always a no-no. You see, the farther away I've gotten from the whole OBE idea, the more it has been happening. (A bit ironic if you think about it) So, every time that I would get the vibrations, I would try to turn it into a phasing experience. Looking back on it now, that's pretty funny because that doesn't really make any sense! Getting back to the point, when I would experience the vibes – I would A)try my best to make them go away (there were times when they got really uncomfortable) or B)focus inwards while it was happening.

I must note now that doing these things NEVER worked out. Therefore, I've been trying to figure out a way to get past the vibrations. The idea of LITERALLY focusing past the vibrations never occurred to me – that is - until last night.  

02/03/06

4 AM

I felt the vibrations. I decided to focus past them rather than try to make them go away. Got to a point where I experienced a shift in the blackness, in my mind, which felt as if I was reaching/stretching through space/time. It was very enjoyable. Then I find myself in my room, walking/floating carefully so I wouldn't accidentally step on my laptop (which was on the floor at the time). I try to flip the light on – but it doesn't work. I went downstairs and was about to share my experience with my dad when I decided not to. I walked into the kitchen to get a spoon? and took a look in my backyard. I momentarily thought about what had happened when again, suddenly, I was re-experiencing the whole thing one more time. I found myself back in my bed, accompanied with the vibrations when I repeated my method (focusing PAST the vibrations).  It worked – again – and I immediately awoke to the sound of my alarm.

Got a similar experience or would just like to comment. Go for it.

Welcome to Dreams! / Dream Vocabulary
February 01, 2006, 18:16:18
There are so many words that can be used to describe experiences in our life. But sometimes.. it is very hard to find the words to describe dreams. Maybe that's because some dreams are simply indescribable. But nevertheless, I think its about time words/phrases be created specifically for the description of dreams. It'd probably make it much easier. Or at least by a little.

(But then again, it could just be that I need more practice in translating my dreams to paper. )

So, If there's anyone out there who thinks it would be a good idea.. why not shoot out some phrases/words and we can get the ball rolling.   :smile:

After having a conversation with a friend I began wondering about Multiple Personality Disorders. She says there are about 3-4 individuals in her mind either talking to each other or her. Some of them or angry, some are passive. There have been times when they "took over her" while she was in mid-conversation, and she just blanked out. She didn't remember a thing.

I get the feeling that these people in her mind, that she says are separate from herself are just parts of her .. eh, like, channeling in to her. Or maybe more like.. she's a radio receiver channeling into other radio stations (each station representing a part of the total "her"). Only thing is, she's .. receiving input simultaneously. I think I may have lost myself.  :lol:

What are your views on MPD?
#197
haha. Cool guy, I have that same exact cd, by thompson. The first time I used it my mind was perfectly clear.

Just an overall great cd. I love the little "tinkly music" if that makes any sense. Do you know what I'm talking about? I think maybe its a xzylophone (sp?)

And I agree with gdo. You definitely don't want to try to force anything, as that simply - in most cases- brings a reverse effect.

I say, don't really try to do anything when the images/scenes appear. Just watch them casually and in time.. you will find they get clearer and clearer.

Good luck!

Last night I stayed up rather late. I went to bed around 2AM and decided since I was nowhere near drowsy, I would attempt my own technique. I would do nothing.

Eventually, I noticed a strange but definite shift. It was like being in a dull semi-aware state, for goodness knows how long, to being wide awake and calm. It was around this time that I started to perceive movement in my minds space. If anyone has ever put pressure on their eyes and has seen the grey pyramid like structures, well it was a lot like this. The only difference is that all of the grey/silver matter was moving.

Then, my arm got wicked cold. I thought, "hmm wonder what that was". Soon though, I started to feel the position of my limbs and decided to turn over. This was when I fell asleep.

I was standing by my door, looking in the pitch black dark. There was a man, Picasso or some artist, standing next to me. We were talking when he stated something along the lines of "I only see things that are real". Then, he said he's never seen anything in his life. I got the impression he meant everything is imaginary. I start to think he was loony.

At that moment, I awoke abruptly in my body, accompanied with a nervous/excited feeling within.

Notes:
-Although I wasn't specific, I asked for help before I headed to bed. Then thought about the what-ifs of "help". As in, what if all the times people ask for help and receive it, they are just getting help from themselves.
-I was the guy while at the same time I was me. So it was me talking to me. Could this have been an F2 experience?
-Wasn't entirely lucid during conversation, didn't hit me till was sitting up in bed.
