I wanted to share this in the Astral Pulse forum because of related posts on the Vehram Energy System and was delighted to see that the forum has an area dedicated to the 2012/crop formation phenomenon.

I have written an article on the www.vehram.com website that details this in full and the pictures really help show the relationship better than words ever could.  It would appear that the crop formation located near Ogbourne, Uk in 2003 is a depiction of the Vehram Energy System which is the source of the vibrational surge - the release energy for the ethereal body during out-of-body experiences.

Several other formations in near vicinity also point to the chakras and would appear to relay a message as to how we may engage the kundalini energy.  I believe this information is paramount to understanding the changes coming in 2012 and offer each of us a way to prepare.

Some of the information posted in the article was theoretical when it was written, but I have since had an opportunity to confirm that the Vehram System can indeed fuel this process.  New information has come to light that may allow for a process to permanently reconfigure the Vehram System into an internal configuration and I will be experimenting with this until I have more concrete information to share.

In the meantime, I hope you enjoy the article. This may be a possible starting point toward ascension!

Hey everybody,

Been a little while since I had a chance to update on the posts.  I have been busy working on a more detailed animation of the Vehram System.  The new video illustration, which is now posted on youtube, shows the individual spheres of energy, as well as the fueling and separation of the ethereal body.  You can check it out at:

I want to thank all of you who have taken the time to explore this and who continue to offer your support to this very important project.  I see your blogs and am grateful that you share this with others.  Together, we are creating a truly positive change.

For those who may be new to this particular post (or subject matter) I encourage you to explore the Vehram site and learn more about the true source for the vibrational surge.  I notice many questions surrounding this subject, due in no small part to the fact that much information about the source of the vibrations remain a mystery in mainstream outlets.  The Vehram System, however, is the fundamental source of this energy and can be drawn upon any time you are in hypnagogia, or what we commonly refer to as sleep paralysis.

There are of course the many scientific aspects of the Vehram System, including how "radiant energy" behaves, that should be considered.  It is important to understand how identifying these scientific characteristics allows us to independently demonstrate for ourselves that separation does occur.  The independent nature of the Vehram System becomes much more obvious once you have felt the strength of the energy that is generated by this ethereal array.

One thing I would also like to mention is that the behavior of the Vehram System, in terms of how the radiance may increase or decrease, is at the heart of many of the questions surrounding why the vibrations are sometimes present and not at others.  Simply knowing where to pull the vibrational energy from can alleviate the issue altogether.

Hope you enjoy the video and keep searching for answers.  They are out there waiting to be discovered...

Just a quick note to answer back some of the questions asked by faxman and to offer insight on current stages of progress for others...

I am currently working on an updated version of the e-book.  34 pages is an extremely condensed version I will also cover an alternate method for hypnagogic-induction.

I appreciate your questions as they represent the very areas where others may have concerns and these will be clarified in an updated version of the e-book.  You all are somewhat a "live test run" and your feedback is invaluable in terms of letting me know where more information is needed.  Everyone will receive the updated version of the e-book via e-mail as soon as it comes available.

I am still stuck in the breathing process. No vibrations or hypnagogic images yet.

When you wake up, take a moment to first just mentally relax and be sure to remain calm.  One of the greatest culprits at this stage is adrenaline.  We get excited, even just a little, and the body awakens (or otherwise doesn't slip toward hypnagogia.)  Also, you can practice just the breathing/relaxation technique during the day to train your body to more immediately relax.  Familiarity enables us to recall from memory more easily and be able to more quickly induce the state.  This will make it much easier to follow through at night.  Don't worry about expecting images during hypnagogia.  It happens to some, not so for others.

phxsun and jub jub:  when you reach hypnagogia, remember to pull the energy from the power centers of the Vehram Array into your body to increase the intensity.  I have experienced, however, much the same thing when the energy seems to be at an overall low level.  This can be caused by anythng that is having a "vitality draining" effect on us (including a lot of negativity in our lives, as well as engaging in sexual intercourse,) but usually is caused simply by natural cycles the ethereal goes through (fluctuations in the power center's diameter, and or, distance from the body.)

You may have to reach a little further, sometimes, or pull energy from the Vehram Array for a little longer before you achieve a strong level of vibrations.  The power source is always there, however.  Also remember that you have control over where this energy will flow, but only if you take control.  The vibrations tend to equalize on their own, but will occasionally "pool together" in your head, for instance.  You have to disperse this energy by willing it to expand throughout your body in order to fully equalize the bonds that bind your ethereal body to the physical.

Best of luck and thanks to all for keeping us posted!

[thank you]

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to say thank you!  All of those here who have taken the time and effort to explore the Vehram Array have done so with such a tremendously positive attitude, and a real dedication to exploring this subject matter without prejudice.  It is often easier to dismiss things that are unfamiliar and stick with what we know.  You have all shown exactly the opposite: a strong desire to explore new things and an equal willingness to share with others.

You have built yet another wall of confidence in the work that has consumed the last 18 years of my life and I cannot fully express what it means to me to be able to see those of you having success!  I also believe that it is simply a matter of practice, patience, and persistence before all have met with the highest levels of success.  I have seen no lack in any of these departments on the part of you folks, which is why I know that we will continue to see great progress.

I deeply appreciate your critical support and will continue to offer any help and/or advice that I may have.  Thank you for your encouragement, through actions and words.  You are making the difference!

[as you are exhaling]

Hey all,

The use of sound (for some) can be effective, but it needs to be the right kind of sound.  Meditational music is great, but there does remain the pitfall that music is distracting, may cause you to lose focus and fall asleep, or not be able to tune inward enough to let go and allow yourself to go back to sleep.   It also provides physical stimulus and diverts attention from the breathing exercise, which I believe is the most powerful tool one can use to effectively control entry into hypnagogia.

I would rather see someone with the specific problem of falling asleep too easily to try instead to remain focusing on your breathing.  The principles at work are physiological in nature and cannot be taken out of the equation with any real benefit.  I am convinced that you are much closer than you realize to success.  More practice will soon lead to that aha moment.

If you are the kind of individual who, when awakened, can easily slip back to sleep (maybe too easily), then this technique will work wonders.  Some people have the exact opposite problem in that they cannot go back to sleep, once awakened.  I will share a solution to this as the post continues below.

Recognizing a tencdency to fall asleep easily, (if that is your particular issue) simply remember to play a more active mental role when you wake up.  Do not allow yourself to mentally relax and become passive, waiting for IT to happen.  This is where the tug has more strength than we do.  Instead of waiting for it to happen, make it happen - control your breathing and use the exhale to actively force the transition.  The chemical pre-cursers are there. (Have faith that you are going to fall back asleep)

Follow the breathing exercise until your body moves into hypnagogia.  You are in control, but it is so easy to let that control go by mentally relaxing or otherwise forgetting about the process (the technique you are suppose to be using).

The moment we relax the mind, consciousness will very quickly slip away.

Sometimes, and I am very guilty of this myself, you may wake up, get excited about the prospect of leaving your body, and wake up too much, resulting in an inability to fall back asleep very easily.  

For many, because we are seemingly too awake, we simply try to go back to sleep.  The tendency is to lose concentration during this period.  What I want to reiterate here, is that the body still has the chemical precursors to sleep circulating within the body.  ***It depends directly on the amount of rest the body feels it has had, as to how much more of these chemicals will be released into the body, once you relax.  (one note to Jub: melatonin does play a critical role in this process of falling asleep and lower levels of this harmone is certainly an issue that we deal with as we get older.  However, you still are able to sleep like we all do, so don't feel like you cannot use this method.  You may have to do it after less sleep than others may need.)

So, if you are waking up and feeling wide awake, try to get less sleep next time before waking up.  Allow your body to be very sleepy when you first go to sleep.  One may also want to wake up after a shorter sleep period than otherwise (two hours instead of four, perhaps.)

It is extremely difficult for a fully rested body (or a body that "thinks" it's full rested) to fall asleep, even for someone who is adept at the techniques. There are times when I am unable to force the transition back into hypnagogia because I am too well rested.  On the other hand, it is extremely difficult to prevent a sleepy body from going to sleep.  Whatever your case may be,  use this info to your advantage.  Somewhere in the middle of this is the sweet-spot, but remember, the real power to this technique lay in the breathing exercise.

It simply has to be controlled.  You have to be in control over the process the entire time and play an active role through the transition.  Do this with the least amount of awareness possible without falling asleep to help prevent yourself from waking up too much.  Kinda just noticing what you are doing, but purposeful in your execution.

Breath out, and each time as you are exhaling, relax deeply, watch your body go to sleep.  If it doesn't go to sleep on that particular exhale, you will have at the very least pushed the body that much closer to the transition.  So, breath in, then exhale and relax deeply, again.  Notice the tug, but don't fight it.  Go with it and maintain "noticing" your body slipping into sleep paralysis.

One thing that practitioners want to be aware of is that when this tug occurs, we may have a tendency to kinda say to ourselves, "Whoa, what's going on here?"  We have to learn how to go with it and not tell ourselves to stop.  The mind, if it becomes over analytical during the transition, will stop the transition and instead wake up.

So, go with it, without questioning it.  Just let it happen, but also, "force it" by using the prescribed breathing technique.

Once across the threshold of hypnagogia, it is much more difficult to then awaken the body (it's not like you will slip out of it very easily.)  You would have to strain quite hard to roll over and move the body to wake it up.  Or, get really excited about something and release adrenaline.  This often happens in the hypnagogic-state when fear enters the mind.  Fear, for instance, of not being able to move, or getting "stuck" in that condition.

Just remain calm and follow the rest of the method to obtain the vibrations and separate.

I hope this helps.  Don't give up and keep a positive attitude.  Use that breathing exercise to full advantage.  Its power is unbelievable in terms of how it will open the door to oobe's at will!

Thank you all for exploring this and sharing your feedback.  I wish you the very best on your continuing journey!

Hi Stookie,

I posted a clarification on the breathing technique in the original thread.  I agree with all that "noticing" is much better verbage to describe what one is doing when trying to maintain awareness.  Noticing is exactly what is happening in that you are noticing that each time you as breath out, your body slips closer to hypnagogia.  "Focusing" implies too much lucidity.  Keep a half-hazard approach.

The breathing technique, however, is an extremely valuable tool if followed correctly. The reason is that there are natural principles governing the body's transition into the sleep state, (chemicals such as harmones, and oxygen level) and controlled breathing is the direct way that we can manipulate the body's overall level of nervous activity.  By noticing the transition is going to occur on an exhale, while close to the sleep state, we are able to control the process instead of being controlled by it. 

Check out the other post to get the full details. 

I hope this will help those who may be struggling with getting back to sleep.  You really want to shoot for an almost semi-lucid state as your starting point when you wake up.  Remember the auto-programming technique as it describes how to wake up without waking up too much.

Thanks for sharing your experiences and offering this discussion for others!

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to provide clarification on the breathing technique.  I actually like better the phrase "notice your breathing" over "focus on your breathing" because of the implied connotation that you want to make sure you do not wake up completely.  A high level of awareness can stimulate the body and prevent you from easily entering the hypnagogic-state.

As mention in dbmathis's posts, it isn't necessary to do anything, except actively be aware of something.  You can use any kind of visual imagery, etc.  What you are really doing is focusing inwards, and to a small extent, letting go of the physical world around you.  You simply want to maintain an active level of awareness of what is going on in your mind so that you are awake for the event.

Having said that, there is still a powerful capability provided to the practitioner, in the breathing technique, that is the true secret to controlling the transition, as opposed to being at its mercy.

The true power behind the breathing exercise is in the physiological principles governing the body's transition into the sleep state.  By properly following the technique, you are able to control, and actually force the transition, and this is the reason it is such a critical part of the methodology provided in the guide.

Now, if you are too strongly "focusing" on your breathing, your high level of awareness, as mentioned, may well be counter-productive to slipping across the threshold of hypnagogia, so instead you should try to just notice what is about to happen.  But, also keep in mind that the chemical state of the body is still relatively that of a sleeping body.  You still have much of the same harmones present in the blood-stream and your nervous system will remain suppressed.  It requires several minutes for the chemical nerve blockers to break down and the body to completely wake up.  (Adrenaline can speed this process up considerably, which is why excitement about what is going on is highy counter-productive to success)

Rather, because of the body's chemical state, it requires just a moment of relaxation to transition into sleep.  Utilizing the breathing technique enables you to maintain a relatively active role mentally (you are having to complete a mental task, or process,) thus, allowing you to retain lucidity across the transition into hypnagogic.  The real key is, each time you breathe out, you are actually forcing the transition by limiting the nervous stimulation to the body that is normally caused by breathing in.

So, that was the technical explanation.  Here is the explanation in a nutshell:

When you first wake up, remember that the transition into hypnagogic will always happen during an exhale.  Take a slight pause between breaths to really "push" across the threshold.  This is where you control it.  Allow yourself to feel the weight and total relaxation of your body, and watch as your body slips into the sleep state.  Takes three to five seconds, usually - 10 seconds at most.

Hope this added info helps.  Thanks to all for continuing to share your experiences!

First, I just want to say thank you to everyone for giving this very important metaphysical breakthrough an open public forum for discussion, and also a special thanks to OBEvideoguy for the invite here to share in the exchange of ideas.

The Vehram System serves as the fundamental release power to enable consciousness to break the ties that bind us within the human body.  Externally configured at key points outside the body, the Vehram Array comprises six ethereal power centers.  Each center is composed of a central orb approximately the size of a basketball, engulfed in a radiant field of energy extending up to several feet in all directions from its surface.

The field of ethereal radiation surrounding the individual power centers may occassionally expand to engulf the human body and in such cases results in the automatic onset of the vibrational surge.  These natural cycles are known in the literature, however their underlying cause is only now becoming apparent in light of research into this external array.

The vibrational surge represents the formation of a viable ethereal vehicle consciousness may utilize to achieve separation.  It is possible to achieve separation without this energy present as many people do so from dream-states and through alternative projection methods such as in astral ejection.  However, there are still governing factors at the heart of any successful separation, and what the Vehram array does is enable us to understand at least some of the fundamental principles that allow consciousness to separate from the physical body, enough so that we can state that there is a fundamental approach that will, if conducted correctly, result in success each and every time.

There is a clear cause and effect relationship between being in the hypnagogic-state and what this energy does when it comes in contact with the ethereal body.  The basic effect is to provide a charge that neutralizes the ethereal bonds that hold the ethereal body within the physical.  The practitioner feels no resistance to separation wherever this energy is present within the ethereal body.  On the other hand, voluntary separation becomes difficult, nearly impossible without this energy present.

Also of particular interest, scientifically, is the unique behavior and properties of the energy centers themselves.  The field of radiation surrounding each orb, along with the jolt that occurs when contact is made between the central core and the ethereal body, are two independently identifiable properties that are of a non-subjective nature.  These properties will exhibit themselves regardless of what the practitioner believes, knows, or thinks.  Also, of course, is the exact layout and configuration of these energy centers, all of which are outside the physical body, proving that we must have the ability to reach beyond the physical body in order to physically interact with this system.

Because there are scientific principles that govern the behavior of all known forms of energy, we must ask whether the behavior of the Vehram Array may constitute a new set of scientific principles.  It would in fact appear to abide by at least some known laws of physics in terms of how energy emanates from a specific source - stronger closer to the source, weaker the further away.  The jolt is very similar to an electric shock in that the individual is subjected to an extremely powerful vibrational current of energy that enters from the source, travels through the conduit of the ethereal body and disperses throughout to regain equilibrium.

This phenomenon is testable under scientific laboratory conditions and should serve as a starting point for those in the field to begin understanding the scientific principles that govern consciousness' ability to exist separately from physical.  Through this work we will begin to more fully understand how we are integrated in the body, but at the very least, we can now see that we are indeed separate.

All the information anyone may need to explore the Vehram Array is posted on the site, so please take the time to explore this incredible breakthrough and share your experiences with others.  Thank you to everyone for taking the time to be a part of this!
