I met Vajrayogini and White Tara in an OBE. They both blessed me and I stayed with them until the OBE ended.

BirthOfTheNight, in the morning drink some coffee with sugar and creamer(very important), wait about 4-5 hours, go meditate and then lay down. You should get at least paralyzed and some vibrations, maybe an actual OBE. When I stopped the coffee, it all went away. Took me a year to figure it out. I mean if I drank coffee everyday for a week, then everyday for a week I would experience OBEs.

I think it has something to do with insulin spikes, lowering blood pressure from the sugar. which causes sleepiness. And the coffee, because of the caffeine keeps just the right amount of wakefulness required for the Trance state.

For dreams, the area of the brain associated with dreams is the same area associated with sexual arousal, namely the hypothalamus. If you take aphrodisiacs with  just a little melatonin right before you fall asleep, you will have some cool dreams, not necessarily sexual either.

I've got the Nova Pro 100, and 2 pairs of light goggles. This is what started my OBEing process.

I've also got some Monroe stuff

I got The Hyper Dimensional Resonator
http://www.futurehorizons.net/time2.htm (description)
http://www.futurehorizons.net/time.htm (scroll down to bottom to find it)
This Hyper-Dimensional Resonator hooks up to the head of the user and by setting the dial, it will allow it's user to spontaneously astral project. And once your able to astral project, you can travel in space and time either to the future or the past. This is no joke!! Plugs into a normal 110 volt outlet.

Other cool stuff,

Robert Monroe, one of America's forefathers on OBE research worked at a broadcasting station, and I believe that the radio frequency radiation may have played a part in his frequent OBEs. Though he never mentioned that as a possible source.

And most people today carry a cell phone, and they put it near their right ear when speaking, perhaps RF could be affecting the right angular gyrus.

This one time a friend and me were planning to go watch a movie, but I was tired and told him I wanted to take a nap, so we planned to go watch the next showing, I told him to call 15 minutes before it started if I hadn't waked up and notified him.

Well as I was getting ready I accidentally turned my phone ringer off and having it cupped in my right hand, put my hand under my pillow of which my head laid upon. I was laying on my right side.

A little bit later, caught up in a dream, things started changing, I felt the vibes, dream disappeared, came out of body, went exploring, about a minute later, zapped back in body. Woke up, checked time, it was like about 2 minutes from which my friend was supposed to call. I opened the phone and I had a "missed call" message, it was my friend. I didn't hear it because I turned it off. I figured the cell phone Radio frequency had something to do with it.

I wonder, Supplemental Iron can be moved by an electromagnetic field, so if we used a pulsing electromagnet near the right angular gyrus, would the iron in the body collect in that area making a type of connection that would induce an OBE?

I am right now using the Hyper-Dimensional Resonator (pulsing electromagnet) right above my right ear, instead of at the navel. Earlier I did this and then went and laid down, I noticed an immediate sinking sensation with lots of hypnogogic visuals. I'll let you know how it turns out.

There are two types of Faith.
1. a) one's religion, b) what one believes in
2. that which overcomes doubt.

Since everybody understands Definition #1, I' ll discuss Definition #2.
You cannot understand faith, without first understanding doubt.

How to experience doubt:
When in meditation after a period of time, you may hear a noise, like someone speaking to you and no one is there. Or you may see an image as crystal clear as you see your own computer screen. The moment you think What the @#$!? or What is this? or even the simple "Huh?", it disappears. That was doubt. And the longer you can hold the vision without questioning it is the strength of your faith increasing.

Faith is not something you just say, "I believe"and then go walk on water. You have to train it.

Faith as small as a mustard seed can move a mountain, but most people can't even move the mustard seed, so what faith do they have? Their faith is weak, or non-existent.

When I was studying the Japanese language, I would frequently have OBEs, I'd find myself face in book- pen in hand while sitting at a desk.

Interestingly, the right angular gyrus plays a role in language learning, from what I have found out. So I figured learning languages might help induce them. Perhaps that is why certain Mantras play a part in OBEs.

Your occupation is research technologist, what do you research? I ask because Robert Monroe, one of America's forefathers on OBE research worked at a broadcasting station, and I believe that the radio frequency radiation may have played a part in his frequent OBEs. Though he never mentioned that as a possible source.

And most people today carry a cell phone. Perhaps if you bought 3 cell phones and strapped them to your head and 3 way called yourself and enjoyed the radio frequency massage until the battery died it might cause an OBE, of course I wouldn't recommend it, I just said that to be a little funny.
But cell phones could be the trigger for OBEs. Perhaps you could do some R&D.

OK, I just read your profile, pretty much answered it.

Lotus Legs, (padmasana)What do you think causes your LDs? Do you do meditation, cerebral breathing, chakra work?

Don't think you can, know you can.

great outdoors Hi,
There is a sutra that although doesnt refer to the creaton of the big bang theory as such but it describes the creation of galxies and universes and also of other beings that were androgenous, but something went wrong for them........I think they ate something !! there is also a very good sanskrit suttra that goes into alot f detail too!!! I shall get back with some links for you!!!

I'd like to hear this as soon as possible.

Revering the Buddha.

I think the original reason for statues of various Buddhas was because,....

Mind is the source for all things,(b/c it has been conditioned from birth as to what it will accept or reject).

In one's dreams, especially if they are lucid dreams a person can do anything. In Vajrayana Buddhism there is a practice known as Generation Stage, which means "creative visualization/imagination fantasizing", so they developed a method of turning mind, which has no form into something with form. Visualizing a buddha statue (or it could be a Jesus statue, it does not matter, as long as it feels OK with the person doing the practice). After the practice meditate until you get the OBE effect then one tries to visualize the image in their mind, a statue has a 3-dimensional attribute so the image can be seen from various angles and when memorized/visualized is imparted to be the mind itself. Giving the mind a form, that of a person that we can relate to, so when we ask a question the created teacher/guide will respond like a person. And since it comes from our subconscious mind it relates to us the information that under normal daily situations we would have missed. We are all potential Buddhas.

For example, you're out walking around, and little do you know there is a sniper in the trees in front of you with his gun aimed right at you. Of course you don't see him with your conscious peripheral vision, but the subconscious mind saw it. Later that night you have a dream that a large beast is trying to harm you. You look into the dream dictionary to find what your dream means, and it says, "an unknown enemy wishes you harm". Indicating that you need to be more aware of your surroundings.

No being a Buddhist doesn't mean worshiping Buddha or statues of him. You can be a Christian and still study Buddhism because it is a mind-science only. No different than math or chemistry, there were teachers in those fields, that doesn't mean to worship the teacher.However in many Asian countries bowing is a sort of respect, so from a western view point it may be interpreted that their bowing is a type of worship. However I wouldn't doubt it that they were actually worshiping the statutes. Ignorance runs high in various religions. And Buddhism is no exception. Buddhism originally was a Science of Mind, but people got lazy and decided to turn him into a type of personal Saviour.

You ask any Asian not from this country, that is a Buddhist, and that speaks a little English, and they'll tell you they worship and pray to the Buddha (actually the Buddha statue). I can't say whether they don't know enough English to convey the proper meaning or they really are that ignorant.

Asian children brought up by these Asian immigrated parents, just follow their parents tradition without really knowing what's going on. But the Asians that were born here in America, that speak the English language fluently and may or may not be Buddhist have more understanding than their parents ever will. But most of the time they convert to Christianity because all their friends are Christians and they really did not understand Buddhism in the first place.

From my own personal experience American Buddhists have a greater appreciation and understanding of it. Buddha gave 84,000 teachings for the different capacities of people's minds to understand, according to that it may take some people several lifetimes in order to catch a higher meaning or understanding. Americans have got the capacity to go to higher teachings because we have a greater understanding of the world around us and have gotten rid of most superstitious beliefs.

In Buddhism there are 3 Wheels(types), Hinayana (small vehicle),
Mahayana (great vehicle), and Vajrayana (Supreme Vehicle). Most Buddhist Asians are either Hinayana or Mahayana. Most American Buddhists are Vajrayana or Zen.

Hi Gang,

It was several years ago that I took the Silva Method  I purchased the device from them.  However, I worked with a fellow psychotherapist that used it.  If I locate a place to purchase one, I'll report.

Yes, it's that easy.  As your brain waves change the machine beeps  slower and slower.

Tilt your head to a 45 degree angle. That may put you at alpha.

Cheers,
Gold Shoes

Interesting, tilting the head to 45 degrees induces alpha state, where did you get this information? I would like to see it. I read somewhere that one of the Egyptian gods(I think Osiris) used to lie on an incline of 37 degrees to project into the spirit world.

Om-Mani-Padme-Hum, "Hail to the jewel in the lotus", the mantra of Avalokiteshvara(Lord who attained enlightenment thru the contemplation of sound, not the sounds you hear externally, but the sound you hear when you read a book silently to yourself, or thinking a thought).

Get yourself a mala, and do 2-3 rounds, each round is 108 beads, so 108 mantras 3 times. It creates the necessary sound vibration necessary to achieve an OBE.

It's kind of like being at the beach, in the ocean for a couple of hours, later that night while going to sleep, you can still feel the ocean waves running thru you.

Or you can use a Photo/Acoustic Mantra form such as a Light and Sound Machine like the NOVA PRO 100.

I have also used the Migtsema prayer, that is helpful too. I'll be saying it with a mala while going to sleep, and wake up in the dream saying it, and then notice the change in the environment, from there LD, from there OBE.

TIBETAN YOGA
AND SECRET DOCTRINES

BOOK III
THE PATH OF KNOWLEDGE: THE YOGA OF THE SIX DOCTRINES

CHAPTER III: THE DOCTRINE OF THE DREAM-STATE


(1) The third doctrine, concerning the Dream-state, consisteth
of four parts: Comprehending; Transmuting; Realizing the Dream-
state to be Maya; and meditating on the Thatness of the dream-
state.

[PART I: COMPREHENDING THE NATURE OF THE DREAM-STATE]

(2) The first part, Comprehending [the nature of the Dream-
state] compriseth three practices: Comprehending it by the Power
of Resolution, Comprehending it by the Power of Breath, and
Comprehending it by the Power of Visualization.

[Practice I: Comprehending It By The Power of Resolution]

(3) With respect to the first, Comprehending it by the Power
of Resolution, that which has been called 'the initial
comprehending of the dream', referreth to resolving to maintain
unbroken continuity of consciousness [throughout both the waking-
state and the dream-state].
(4) In other words, under all conditions during the day [or
waking-state] hold to the concept that all things are of the
substance of dreams and that thou must realize their true nature.
(5) Then, at night, when about to sleep, pray to the Guru that
thou mayest be enabled to comprehend the dream-state; and firmly
resolve that thou wilt comprehend it. By meditating thusly, one is
certain to comprehend it.
(6) It hath further been said [in this connection]: 'All
things are the result of causes; they depend wholly upon
resolutions [or motives]'

[PRACTICE 2: COMPREHENDING IT BY THE POWER OF BREATH]

(7) In the second practice, Comprehending it by the Power of
Breath, the methods are: Sleep on the right side, as a lion doth.
With the thumb and the ring-finger of the right hand press the
pulsation of the throat arteries; stop the nostrils with the
fingers [of the left hand] ; and let the saliva collect in the
throat. {As a result of these methods, the yogin enjoys as vivid
consciousness in the dream-state as in the waking-state; and in
passing from one state to another experiences no break in the
continuity of memory. Thereby the content of the dream-state is
found to be quite the same as the content of the waking-state, in
that it is wholly phenomenal and therefore illusory...}

[PRACTICE 3: COMPREHENDING IT BY THE POWER OF VISUALIZATION]

( The third practice, Comprehending it by the Power of
Visualization, consisteth of these processes: The visualization
itself; deriving the Greatest Benefit from the Visualization; And
preventing the Spreading-out of the Dream-Content (this last
process refers to overcoming the tendency of dreams to lose their
coherence, or to be lost to memory upon waking.).

[THE VISUALIZATION ITSELF]

(9) In the first, the Visualization Itself, the method is as
followeth:
Thinking that thou art thyself the deity Vajra-Yogini,
visualize in the throat psychic-center the syllable AH, red of
colour and vividly radiant, as being the real embodiment of Divine
Speech. (Midway between the heart psychic-center and that of the
throat, in a space about four inches long, a tube-like psychic-
organ is said to exist. If the vital force be quiescent within it,
sleep ensues; and if the vital-force be in motion within it, dreams
occur. Hence the visualization chiefly concerns the throat
psychic-center.)
(10) By mentally concentrating on the radiance of the AH, and
recognizing every phenomenal thing to be in essence like forms
reflected in a mirror, which, though apparent, have no real
existence of themselves, one comprehendeth the dream.

[DERIVING THE GREATEST BENEFIT FROM THE VISUALIZATION]

(11) In the second, for Deriving the Greatest Benefit from the
Visualization, the method is as followeth:
At nightfall, [strive to] comprehend the nature of the dream-
state by means of the visualization just described above. At dawn
practice the pot-shaped breathing seven times. Resolve [or try]
eleven times to comprehend the nature of the dream-state. Then
concentrate the mind upon a dot, like unto a bony substance, white
of colour, situated between the eyebrows. (The visualization of the
dot is, in this practice, chiefly for the purpose of attaining
mental concentration, or one-pointedness of mind.)
(12) If one be of plethoric temperament, the dot is to be
visualized as being red of colour; If one be of nervous
temperament, the dot is to be visualized as being green of colour.
(13) If by these means the nature of the dream-state be not
comprehended, then proceed as followeth:
At nightfall meditate upon the dot. In the morning practice
twenty-one 'pot-shaped' breathings. Make twenty-one resolves (or
efforts) to comprehend the nature of the dream-state. Then, by
concentrating the mind on a black dot, the size of an ordinary
pill, as being situated at the base of the generative organ, one
will be enabled to comprehend the nature of the dream-state.

[PREVENTING THE SPREADING OUT OF THE DREAM CONTENT]

(14) Preventing the Spreading-out of the Dream-Content hath
four divisions: The Spreading-out into the Waking-State, the
Spreading-out because of Fatigue [from the exercises], the
Spreading-out because of Physical or Mental Affliction, and the
Spreading-out into negativeness.
(15) The Spreading-out into the Waking-state occureth when one
is about to comprehend the dream, in view of thinking that it must
be comprehended, and then waketh up.
(16) The antidote for this is to eat nutritious food and to
perform bodily work [or exercise] until fatigued. Thereby sleep
becometh deeper; and that cureth it.
(17) The Spreading-out because of fatigue occurreth when a
dream recurreth frequently without any change of content.
(18) The antidote here is to meditate often upon that dream
and to resolve most firmly to comprehend its essential nature;
amalgamating in the process the 'pot-shaped' breathing-exercise
with the visualization of the dot between the eyebrows. (The
purpose of this combination of exercises is to gain better control
of the mind, for indomitable mental control prevents and cures all
the various spreadings-out of the content of the dream.)
(19) The Spreading-out because of Physical or Mental
affliction occureth when one dreameth many dreams and recollecteth
nothing of them upon waking.
(20) The antidote here is to avoid pollutions and impurities,
to take the initiation of Samadhi, and to visualize the dot as
being inside the root of the organ of generation. Thereby this
spreading-out will be cured.
(21) The spreading-out into Negativeness is the
disinclination of dreams to come.
(22) To overcome this, visualize, whilst meditating upon the
'pot-shaped', the dot as being in the root of the generative organ;
and, in particular, with propitiatory offerings the Viras and the
Dakinis.

[PART II: TRANSMUTING THE DREAM-CONTENT]

(23) In the second part, the Transmutating, as it is called,
the process is as followeth:
If, for example, the dream be about fire, think, 'what fear
can there be of fire which ocurreth in a dream!' Holding to this
thought, trample upon the fire. tread under foot whatever be
dreamt.
(24) After having gained proficiency in this, then turn the
thought to the various Buddha Realms [thinking that they are
attainable].
(25) Accordingly, when about to sleep, visualize a red dot as
being within the throat psychic-center, and firmly believe that
thereby thou shalt see whichever of these realms thou desirest to
see, with all its characteristics, most vividly.

(26) By concentrating the mind thus, one beholdeth the Buddha
Realm which one hath wished to behold--The Tush:ta Heaven, or the
Happy Western realm. or that called 'Happy to Know', or any other
of the realms.
(27) This practice serveth as a test of efficiency [in the art
of transmuting dreams.
(28)

[PART III: REALIZING THE DREAM-STATE, OR DREAM-CONTENT, TO BE MAYA]

(28) The third part, Realizing the Dream-State [or Dream-
Content] to be Maya, hath been expounded as followeth:

'At the outset, in the process of realizing it to be Maya,
abandon all feelings of fear [or dread];
And, if the dream be of fire, transform the fire into water,
the antidote of fire.
And if the dream be of minute objects, transform them into
large objects;
Or if the dream be of large objects, transform them into small
objects:
Thereby one comprehendeth the nature of dimensions.
And if the dream be of a single thing, transform it into many
things;
Or if the dream be of many things, transform them into a
single thing:
[Thereby one comprehendeth the nature of plurality and of unity.]
Continue such practices until thoroughly proficient in them.'

(29) Then by visualizing one's own body as seen in the dream-
state, and all other bodies similarly seen, as being Maya-like
bodies of deities, they will be realized to be so.

[PART IV: MEDITATING UPON THE THATNESS OF THE DREAM-STATE]

(30) The fourth part, meditating upon the Thatness of the
Dream-State, is, as hath been said, 'to meditate upon the real
essence of the thatness'; And thereby, the dream propensities,
whence arise whatever is seen in dreams as appearances of deities,
are purified.
(31) By concentrating the mind upon the forms of the deities
seen in the dream-state, and by keeping the mind free of thoughts,
in the quiescent condition, the forms of the deities are attuned to
the non-thought condition of mind; and thereby dawneth the Clear
Light, of which the essence is of the Voidness.
(32) If one attain mastery of this process, then, whether in
the sleeping-state or in the waking-state, one realizeth both
states to be illusory [ in so far as their content are concerned];
and all phenomenon will be known to be born of the Clear Light
[which is the noumenal reality sustaining the Maya],

[Here endeth The Doctrine of Dreams.]

My method for converting LDs into OBEs is that in the LD, I just concentrate on my third eye area, the dream disappears, all is left is the blackness, I feel the consciousness pull up to the third eye area, connect it to the top of head, feel the pop, feel the vibes, then I come out.

I've been to the Akasha Records. Big Library and lots of books.

Didn't Jesus have older brothers, go figure.

It was about a lama. Not me.

* The Tibetan Buddhist Teachings on Death and Rebirth *
by Lama Ole Nydhal, Vajrayana Buddhist Lama

Though I have had several dreams in which I was in a Buddhist Temple. Each one being in a different country. None of the dream ones have I ever been to in real life, maybe I'm connecting with past life memories or maybe their just dreams.

There is no jealousy here, only disgust.

The real problem is sex, as long as that is occurring, babies are being born, now-a-days people are having more and more. How does this effect everyone?

Back when my mom had a job, jobs were seeking people to employ and would pay them handsomely. Low supply, huge demand. Now-a-days the supply is high and the demand is low. Because of population increases.

There is a saying, "War benefits the economy", I can see how that works to reduce the population and jobs will be open.

Because of retirement issues a lot of companies will let the old go so they won't draw retirement. And they are replaced with younger people.

Another problem is advertising sex, to promote business. It's like the world is going to hell in a hand basket.
