That is basically what people do in Qigong but moving the energy through the meridians by your mind is considered not very safe and people usually do it by practicing moving meditation like tai chi. There are several hospitals around China that specialize in treating people who have unbalanced their meridians as a result of improper Qigong without having a qualified teacher. Symptoms are mostly paralysis, shaking, hallucination,...

I think you should at least restrict the first post of new members to a moderators approval. Excluding the spams I don't think there are that many first posts everyday.

Even if someone is covering up this kind of research in America, It's difficult to imagine that they can stop all the private investors as well as all the other countries in the world. On the other hand it's also difficult to understand why there isn't enough work being done with all this evidence. It really doesn't make sense. Honestly if no one is doing anything then I hope I can convince my university to do something. They are supposed to be a TCM university but instead of doing research on qi, meridians,.... They are playing with chemicals and herbs to make shampoos and cosmetics.

Thanks for your answers. I don't know anything about the sectret organisations But if there is an institute that is openly doing research I would want to volunteer, or maybe I just pay Obama a visit to see if has any super agents around him

I just don't understand why there isn't any solid research on AP. I don't think that AP is now limited to just a few secretive shamans and the number books written about it as well as the number of posts on forums shows clearly that many ordinary people can do it. So why isn't there any scientific group working on it? My own remote viewing experiments have proved it to me that at least sometimes it shows the exact things that are happening in the physical world and therefore it can be experimented on. If a scientific group works on it they can easily solve many of the spiritual questions of the human beings and win a nobel prize. Even if let's say it is not real and just our own mind tricks it is still a very important psychological phenomenon and if they can figure out how it works maybe they can create drugs that can cause and prolong this experience and make lots of money.

I have had this feeling on my shoulders for probably 8 years. When I go out I can see two beings behind my body holding my shoulders and when I am awake I can feel their hands all the time. After so many years I am still not sure of their nature but what I know is that they have restricted my OBE's and sometimes push me back to my body. I still have OBE's but it seems that my experiences are controlled by them or guides from their clan who escort me. Also whenever I pray my shoulders start to shiver.

ask and find out...

I asked in a OBE back a few years my guide's name - something like this "Tiarek Muheafah" pronounced T Air Rick Moo E AH Fa.... 

the more information you gain from your OBE, reference it here, or google it...

My guides have names that sound close to Hebrew or Arabic but the original pronunciation has some high frequencies that I can't imitate that's why my permanent guide tells me a simplified version after they introduce themselves.

I think too much pressure in the forehead is not good. Before I used to force myself to see auras and every time I would get a headache after focusing too much on auras. Now after doing martial arts and particularly qigong sets like zhoutian I can see auras pretty well each time after training without trying hard and there isn't much pressure in my head.  

Pressure in the head is a common problem for qigong learners and can cause health problems that's why many teachers teach the external moves and standing for a few years and after the body of the learner is ready they gradually teach moving the intent and leading the Qi. I think using the intent before the body is relaxed and the meridians are open enough is bad because the practitioner would need to move too much energy to the forehead which can get stagnated and cause headaches or even worse things. On the other hand if the practitioner spends enough time on his qigong foundation many things can happen automatically when the time is right for the body.

Just like some people can see the good in the world and some can only see the bad.

It's the perception you choose to see with.  Yes, it extends to the non-physical as well.

This is part of the reason but the other part is more physical like the natural talent, openness of the energy channels, etc. The body can affect the mind and the mind can affect the body. That's why some people who believe in this stuff can't see them unless they practice for a long time and some who don't want to do anything with this stuff can't get rid of their talent easily.

How can people see spirits and/or entities like another human spirit while others can't?

Depends on how open your third eye is. So basically if you start by seeing auras gradually you'll be able to see spirits too but it's not easy and consumes a lot of energy unless it happens automatically after deep meditation. Sensing them on the other hand is much easier.

Some people are born more sensitive. Also in general children are more sensitive than adults as there is less blockage in their energy.

I don't think it's possible. Ouch, ew, oh no, what have I said.  

If you're talking about being in a meditative state for more than an hour of physical time all the while out-of-body without returning to your body I don't buy it, I call looney tunes. It may feel like hours, just as one may fall asleep and wake up 5 minutes later feeling that hours have passed. But to think that you can spend more than an hour without returning to your body is physically impossible -- unless your brain is unique in the way it stores these memories. I've had experiences that have felt like hours, yet when I return to the physical 30 minutes has passed. It's a strange thing.

Why am I saying this? What am I basing this on? The physical brain we need to actually recall these memories classes OBEs along with dreams and shuts down long term memory storage while in this state. So if you did manage to stay out for hours your recall of the event would be sporadic and dream like at best. It's physically possible, you would need to "wake up" every so often and recall the event while in the physical for it to be stored long term without losing it.

I know I'll take some flak for this and I'm not trying to flame, it just doesn't seem legit to me.

At this moment I don't remember any of my dreams except for bits and pieces of a few special dreams, I don't even remember what I did yesterday  but I can recall my few long OBEs and dozens of short OBEs (out of hundreds) in detail so I don't think your theory is correct but as I said in all of them I had help from many guides and it wouldn't be so easy to stay there for that long and remember everything like that if it wasn't for their energy. It's your energy level and experience that raises your awareness in such experiences so theoretically if someone has a lot of energy and focus I don't see why he shouldn't be able to do this on his own.

I have only had a few very long experiences lasting more than an hour and in all of them I was surrounded by 2 or more guides who probably were helping me in prolonging the experience. They were quite similar to the experiences that are called belief system territories on this forum.

What do you mean by activating Qi? Qi flow is active as long as a person is alive but if you mean enhancing the flow then you need to start practicing Qigong. There are many exercises like zhanzhuang(standing) and specific movements designed to improve the Qi flow called daoyin. Some internal martial arts like Taiji are also based on daoyin and can be practiced for that purpose. The circle walking of Baguazhang is also very helpful. Other than that there are visualization exercises for guiding Qi which should be practiced under the supervision of a teacher or they might cause some health problems.

In the absence of science for this area there isn't anything any of us can prove or disprove. This website is a place to gather personal experiences to help us figure out what we are dealing with. I read everywhere that ap wasn't dangerous and that the wild beings couldn't cause any physical damage but I have seen strong wild beings that could affect the physical world a few times.

The annoying mechanism that ends our experiences and brings us back to our bodies is very strong and personally I have never needed to try anything extra for coming back to my body(well maybe something for a few seconds when I'm in sleep paralysis) but like anything else it might be possible that this mechanism doesn't work properly in this very rare case. Probably you could tell your friend to try to gradually feel his body like doing a body scan. He could also use some acupuncture.

 The first time I opened my du meridian was the first time I started to have that kind of vision. This was before I knew anything about TCM but I think I accidentally focused on naohu or fengfu (located at the back of the occipital bone) and suddenly the meridian got open with a rush of qi then I could see things at my back as well.

The problem is not the internet, the problem is the connection between the healer and the person who receives the healing.  I suppose they should know each other at least a little bit so that the healer's intent can go to the right direction. Many years ago I had a relative who who died of cancer at a very young age. In her last few weeks she was in great pain. At that time I had just started learning meditation so after phasing I could feel the connection between myself and her. I started sending her all I could and prayed for her. The next day my mother went to see her and she wasn't in pain anymore. She told my mother that the previous night she could feel someone was praying for her. Anyway she died soon after that but at least for a few days wasn't in great pain. Having said that I have also tried some energy healers on the internet and it has never worked because I couldn't feel the connection but remote healing works when my grandmother(who is very talented) does it for us and the connection between us is so strong that whenever someone is sick in the family she would notice it from thousands of miles away.
Probably if the healer is very advanced a photo or a phone call would be enough for building that connection but I doubt that there are many people with that power.

Wow, cool. How is your guide showing you the number, by telling (telepathically / voice) or by e.g. holding up a sign with the number on it?

By helping me in remote viewing.

Let us know if/when you repeat it!

Did it one more time today and it was successful. BTW I asked my guide to help me again.

I used to see colorful spiders, snakes, ... on the walls all the time especially after waking up from scary experiences. They were kind of like the paintings in those ancient caves  but the worms are different as they exist everywhere around everything.   

I don't know if what I have seen is like yours but a few years ago while trying to practice seeing auras I started to see a lot of worm like creatures around everything. They would join together and make weird shapes like people or animals and it seemed that they were aware of me watching them because the shapes seemed to be for me. I also noticed that they would move very fast around electric devices as my TV was on at that time.

I have seen them a few times so I can't exactly remember the first experience in detail. However I wrote about it on another forum that is probably closed now. 

I have never felt any strong vibrations in my experiences. I sometimes feel a tiny little bit and then separate.

You know there is a reason that for many centuries people who want to focus on a spiritual life would rather forget about getting involved in daily life, family, etc and would go to remote places to become monks.  However choosing other paths in life doesn't mean one can't pursue spirituality and self growth. Don't be afraid of changes in your life. Whatever happens in our life is a chance to test ourselves, adapt, learn and grow. I don't know if it's your first baby but if it is your first time then you should be prepared to sacrifice a lot of your time and energy for your baby. This is a great challenge and could teach you many things about patience and making the best use of your time for pursuing self growth. So be patient with your life and focus on one thing at a time. Right now your focus should be your child and instead of AP maybe you can learn some forms of meditation  recommended for pregnancy.

I watched the movie today and it was interesting. 

I really like conspiracy movies. Who knows? It's really probable that there is some truth is them. With all this science how they have managed to keep  so many obvious paranormal phenomena hidden by labeling them as new age or hippie delusions is very suspicious.

Congrats! Every time I try to do this I get booted out.

That's not nonsense. She said " Every time I try, I feel a heaviness at my stomach area and a pain if i try to exit." It would be logical to conclude maybe her body is telling her that's not a good idea at the moment.

There isn't much scientific information available about OBE let alone OBE in pregnancy but if she feels pain then it's not really worth risking it. Furthermore no matter how real or unreal OBE is, the possibility of an emotional shock by having one of those scary experiences might be a real risk in her condition.
