I was even lucky enough to be featured on a track :D

I bought wave 1 several years ago for $99 and ripped them to 320 (you can get a legit download for $75 now). Really, I would guess for binaurals that you want highest bitrate possible for the best result, because the binaural beat itself is fairly quiet in the background and that's the kind of stuff that compression degrades and removes.

I had a really old zenith TV that once picked up police radio. I heard them say the name of the street I lived on. I also had an old yet very nice Onkyo pre-amp that I quit using because it would pick up an amateur ham radio guy who called himself "TopGun". And all he talked about was his radio set-up.

Btw, is remote viewing a little like clairvoyance but only more focused in physical realm consciousness? Just curious as to what people think...

I would guess that remote viewing could come from genuine clairvoyance, but not necessarily. Most that do it are not clairvoyant and I would guess that the visions they get are more dream-like, minds eye stuff... which probably would correlate with the varied results. There are too many variables. (I speculate).

As with everything else, I also believe it's completely unique to the consciousness experiencing it.

I agree with that too... I would think it's possible for 2 people to view the same "aura" in a different manner, but glean the same results/interpretation (again, speculation). Because it's not just "seeing", "feeling" is just as important. Really, the steps in attaining clairvoyance consists of developing/expanding Thinking, Feeling, and Willing as far as you can stretch them.

The way I read it, Rudolph was stating that as we progress spiritually and overcome obstacles (conflicts) in our way, new ones constantly pop-up, and it's how we handle them and learn from them that allows us to progress further. I can agree with that.

lol do you ever read something and you know what all the individual words mean but at the end of it you're like, "what :?"

Taken literally I agree with those words(how couldnt I lol). I just dont get what you're point is or what it counters.

Stookie and Summer seem to get what you're saying though so it must just be me. Please dont explain it any more lol. My head hurts. You win. I surrender lol

We've seen over and over on the forum where people view level of awareness based on what area of consciousness that's being perceived. Something like this:

dream = slightly aware
lucid dream = even more aware
daily activity = normal awareness
OBE/AP = very aware

But the argument is that you can have an OBE with little awareness or a lot. How aware you are can vary no matter the area of consciousness, but many don't see it like that. That is what Ryan means.

There were people here in GA (actually just 10 minutes away from me) that reported feeling it, but I call BS. I talked to one of my friends in Virginia last night and he was at his job outside a shopping center when it happened and he didn't know what was going on, like demolition or something, but afterwards he saw people acting normal like nothing happened so he just shrugged it off. He found out a couple hours later what it was.

I remember reading a story about some toasters that were made in the 50's that would unintentionally act as a radio receiver and in some towns would pick up a local radio station if you listened real close. Here's a similar thread on a physics forum:

Use my method and you'll be able to see them.  They are nothing like the "astral counterpart of the physical".  The perceived body in the phase feels more like the physical body than anything mystical.  The phenomenon you will see in the waking state is colourful and has no substance.  Do you know how else I've seen auras?  Tripping on psilocybin!  There is nothing paranormal at work when it comes to auras and there is no evidence that you are seeing something non-physical with the physical eyes.  I don't even think there is an "astral counterpart" to the physical body for starters.

Yeah, that's what I was saying: that's not an aura. Your method is just a trick of the eyes. I stated before that you DO NOT see them with your physical eyes. However, I also believe in etheric and astral bodies. I know many do not think they exist.

Generally, and what I find with myself (so really it only truly applies to me LoL) is that when you're seeing an aura... if you close your eyes, you shouldn't still see them.  :)

No, you should still be able to if you're seeing the real-deal. I would estimate that 95% of the time people talk about auras, it's just a trick of the eyes or afterimage or tripping on mushrooms. Google auras and it's really hard to find websites that know what they are talking about.

I rarely even bring up clairvoyance here because it never seems like anyone understands what I'm talking about. It's not in your "minds eye", it's as real (or more real) than seeing with your physical eyes, and you remain physically aware. When an aura is seen with eyes open, your seeing into 2 areas of consciousness simultaneously. It's different than what we tend to talk about here, 1) because it's very difficult, 2) it's not AP.

A good clairvoyant can be doing something in the physical, and also shift a part of their awareness into the non-physical and be fully aware of both. I remember Frank stating towards the end that this was his goal and thought it would take him several more years to get good at it.

You have no idea how many times over the years I've tried to explain this here (except for the maybe 15 times in the past year alone). Concentration and focus play a big part in this, and single-minded, focused meditation helps immensely in bringing this into daily and astral life. The longer you can keep your awareness focused where you choose, the more lucid and clear all your experiences will be, physical as well.

If I don't have a clear and lucid experience, then I don't consider it a success. I want the best and that's what I work towards, I'm not happy with dreamy/hazy/hard-to-remember (dream awareness) stuff. When I have those I think, "dang it, I was almost there if I would have just taken advantage of the situation", and use that for the next attempt. I normally don't care what type of experience I start out in, because if I can bring in full awareness, I'm good to go.

I agree... it's healthy to stay skeptical of things you don't understand. Otherwise you can end up focusing all your time and energy in the wrong direction.

My theory: It's some filmmakers that are taking advantage of the 2012 hype while it's here, and getting the word out about it now so they can get some funding as well as pre-advertise the movie. What better way than through a major news source? Reuters probably have money invested or own a part of the production company.

It's speculation, but that's the type of thing the film industry does these days. At the side of the page it has related articles, and says "analysis and opinion: Film investing puts your money where your marquee is"

Hold on a minute...a real aura?  So you believe that they exist?  What makes an aura more real in a state of consciousness other than wakefulness?  I too suspect that the phenomenon is brought about by an impairment of visual acuity.  But I would certainly not hold the experience of auras in the phase state as proof of their reality.

Yes, if they really exist, I believe it's something that's seen clairvoyantly. And by clairvoyance, I do not mean the phase state. Clairvoyance is a physical waking state where awareness is stretched to perceive non-physical simultaneously. Physical eyes/awareness do the focusing and targeting, non-physical awareness perceives the energy behind the physical at the same time. Can I prove this? No.

I have never seen an aura, however I've numerous clairvoyant type experiences that lead me to believe it may be possible. It's really just seeing the astral counterpart of the physical.
#817
Who says you can't share a dream with someone else? I've never done it, but I'm not going to cancel it out.
#818
I never had a lucid dream prior to learning conscious AP. I now have them on a fairly regular basis.
#819
I do think you can see something like that, but I do not think it is the aura. I believe what most people refer to as an aura is actually just an afterimage. A real aura is not seen with physical eyes.
#820
I quit worrying about what anyone else thinks or believes about AP a long time ago. I actually think it's hilarious that other people think they can explain my own experience to me.
#821
I understand what's being said, but not everyone sees it that way, and you can't force them to see it that way. There are a lot of good, non-brainwashed people in the military who end up in it from all kinds of circumstances, like being raised in a military family, or for getting money for college, or want to see the world, or simply don't know what else to do with their lives. Everyone's life experiences and opportunities are unique. I think it's AWESOME that we have soldiers who meditate and practice AP.

That doesn't make any sense. You don't have to respond to everything, sometimes it's best to stay quiet. The astral pulse has gone so downhill with so much crap lately. Some of the best (and serious) posters don't post anymore. No fun.
