Unlocking more energy

[mr_coffee]

Hi everyone,

I've never really thought of myself as a spiritual person until after I had my first OBE.   Now I view myself as a complete energy being trapped inside a biological vehicle.  Ever since I made this mental switch from a physical being to an energy being its seemed to have unlocked some interesting things.

For example, I've always had a feeling of sensing emotions around me even if I can't see the persons facial expression.  This feeling increases dramatically if I'm smoking marijuana.  After I concluded that I wasn't my physical body at all but in fact an energy being all these feelings of energy increased beyond anything I've ever felt before. 

The best way to explain it is if you felt slight internal vibrations and you then requested to increase these vibrations.  The vibrations are different from the feeling I get when I'm about to go into the non-physical.  The vibrations I feel when I'm about to exit are more external.  I can feel for example a high frequency ball of energy above my chest.  But these vibrations I'm feeling now are deep inside me.   I can get to the point where I no longer feel my body at all but I only feel like a ball of energy and if I'm sitting up I could fall forward so its best done when laying down. 

An even more exciting change I discovered was a weird intuition of what a person is thinking.  This although isn't mind reading, its more like if someone wants to express something without saying it I feel what they want a few seconds before they actually verbally tell me.  I've only experienced this with my one roommate so I'm not sure why its linked to her and no one else.  I have a hard time enjoying peoples company especially if I view them as a possible partner after awhile.  I like to think of myself as a very carefree person who doesn't allow much stress or negative thoughts to enter my mind or if they do they simply pass by.  I think this is why I dislike relationships so much as its much harder to just let negative thoughts go away if they are coming from your significante other.  I wonder if my feelings towards her influences these experiences of feeling her thoughts sometimes. 

I'm not sure what it is but it feels like I finally know my true self and before it was almost like someone behind a mask waiting to be let out.   

The only questionable part is I'm afraid I may overload my senses and cause a seizure.  Is it possible to induce a seizure on yourself by overloading your brain with stimulus?  I almost felt like I was going to pass out because I was requesting more and more stimulus and it would increase accordingly.  Once I felt like I've increased it too much, I asked myself to balance out again which lowered the vibrations and I could feel my body again. 

A part of me wants to see what happens when I don't limit the energy but another part makes me feel like it may overload my physical body. 

Anyone else have any similar experiences or can give some guidance?

I can relate to much of what you are experiencing only I don't view it so much as energy.

Many things become apparent to us once we start our journey into the NPR. Once we realize that we are  not our physical bodies, we open the door to different states of consciousness. These different states can be utilized for psychic healing, remote viewing, enhanced intuition, reading auras, increased sensitivity to "spirits", and much more.

I have had many experiences with a few of these different states but I am not able to control them as of yet. I think I'm still in awe of it all. Thinking back, I realized that I have had the experiences since I first started projecting but I have only recently accepted this as fact.

It's just my opinion but I think the people who can psychically heal others have a predisposition to it. We may all be capable of it in some form but aren't as easily inclined. Like everything else, this comes down to belief I'm sure.

You personally have come a long way since your first post. I know I have.

Thanks!  Yes its all very new and exciting!  I think it really helps if you have a loving mind.  Its easy to do once you just tell yourself and think about it logically.  When I say loving I'm not saying you can't have dark thoughts or constantly be thinking of sex.

Its more about not letting negative things affect you such as hate, stress, sadness, etc.  Once you can purge these emotions your mind is very calm all the time and you can really focus on anything you want.  Its also not really acting like these things don't exist or pushing them down.  Its more about recognizing them and realizing why would you ever let any of these emotions stay in your mind at all.  All they do is bring more negative emotions when you recall them. 

Although I think the one downside I've found to having this mindset is some may view you as emotionless.  For example anytime I breakup with someone or something bad happens to me, people are amazed at how it doesn't phase me which makes them conclude I'm emotionless.   I think its totally worth it though and you may also notice an increased power of all your thoughts and emotions once you can change your mindset (if you haven't already).

Hey mr_coffee,

With regard to your concerns on overloading (I call it "draining" or "burning out"), my best advice would be to take things a few steps at a time. It is reasonable to assume that seizures are a possibility, so why take the chance? Common, less serious symptoms may include anxiety, panic attacks, and nausea. In my personal belief, these occur when one is quickly** reaching a vibration that the body cannot handle in that moment. If one attempts to project, for instance, it would be best if they did so sort of slowly and steadily/gradually (rather than quickly and in an imbalanced manner) in order to accumulate enough energy to match the forthcoming vibration and to sustain the physical body. Regular meditation and patience is the key to avoiding system overload. If a person meditates regularly, then they will gradually be in more control of their experiences with astral travel, for instance. They will be able to project in a mere minute or two without overloading their system. People who smoke marijuana and try to project, for example, during meditation will often find themselves draining faster... this is often because when you smoke weed, your mind opens up in a manner that allows you to achieve a certain level of consciousness, further allowing you to easily project if that was your intention (or project even if you were merely attempting a meditative exercise to clear your energy channels). When you're high and you're in phases of projection, you have reached those phases primarily with the power of your mind as opposed to the energy that you are also to accumulate first. There needs to be a balance between mind and body, and smoking weed disturbs that balance and discourages control... it quickly wastes mental energy, resulting in draining. As I suggested earlier, meditation before a meditative exercise for projection will certainly diminish the likelihood of draining... A healthy meal won't hurt either!

Concerning abilities, they're simply by-products of meditation and whatnot (especially as you cultivate/improve your character as you come to perceive the world from a more selfless perspective and come to be more aware of suffering). Common resulting abilities include, but are not limited to, empathy, astral travel, remote viewing, enhanced intuition or precognition, mediumship or increased sensitivity to spirits, and healing. Empaths, in my opinion, may also have an inclination towards healing because empaths already tend to heal in a sense as they interact with people who suffer. An empath, in many ways, helps to take away suffering, which surely is a form of healing. You may come to realize that such healing abilities have transcended into the ability to directly heal diseases that are more so physiological and less so related to the mind (i.e. stress, depression, etc.) even though the mind and body are interdependent and related anyways, which may explain the ability to perform both forms of healing once you're able to do one.

As your character improves, so will the abilities. Though you'll refine/exert more control over the aforementioned abilities with time, cultivation of character, and meditation, you will paradoxically eventually find that your abilities are at their prime or best when they choose to use you, as opposed to you choosing to use them. You may be called to use your powers of empathy in the face of a suffering homeless person, whereby you'd help to alleviate their pain. You may even be called to heal an ill person or animal.

Just as we may find ourselves using our 5 common senses for the good of others (let's say, simply giving a massage with "touch" or simply listening to somebody's tragic story with "hearing"), our enhanced senses resulting from meditation and spiritual progression or ascension are used for the good of others as well.

Anyways man, hope you find this relevant and insightful! All the best on your spiritual journey!!

 This all goes with the terrritory, per say.

Once you awaken your "awareness", you start to see that it has many unique awakenings of it's own.

Learn how to control and harvest these things, so you can help others, by just being you!  

By just being!

It is reasonable to assume that seizures are a possibility, so why take the chance?

I'm gonna call this rubbish. Fate, bad luck, or whatever you want to call it, may allow for a seizure to happen at the same time but the sensations are not the cause of the seizure. I'm not a doctor but I do know that we all experience these sensations every night but we are usually consciously unaware.

I understand your concern but I think that is a bad assumption. If you have had a personal experience that leads you to believe that this is possible, then you may have a preexisting condition in which case, you should have that looked at.

Everything I say is with good intentions for all.

Maybe someone who is not as lazy as I am right now, can find info on the brain waves happening during a seizure and compare that to the known brain waves associated with AP or phasing. It's not proof of anything but it would be interesting none the less. But from what I understand, a seizure occurs during rapid changes in brain waves and neurons misfiring.

[Dean01]

There are loads of anecdotal accounts concerning experiences with seizures during meditation wherein the actor had no prior epileptic history. As such, I would find it unreasonable to contend that seizures are not a possibility. Some of these accounts detail experiences that seemed, to them, very much epileptic in nature, though it may not be epilepsy (as perceived in science) per se. My point is that many people experience sensations that are extremely uncomfortable depending on their state of mind and the means through which they choose to meditate. I, along with many others of course, have experienced such uncomfortable sensations. I never personally once felt that I experienced a seizure during my exercises; however, if many others have claimed this, who am I to discount the possibility? Legitimate seizure or not -- if people are describing their experiences as such or as something that would seem similar or similarly uncomfortable, then who am I to encourage the instigation of such discomfort? 

[Astralzombie]

Anecdotal evidence exists to support anything. The main difference is in perception. What others view as meditating, I call relaxing or clearing my mind. I am positive that many physical ailments have presented themselves or have first become apparent to people while they are relaxing but I guess I'm just assuming that the act of relaxing was not the cause of the physical ailment. I think we should all hope not. And though I never do any energy work, I will argue that I am getting as much benefit in how I am doing it versus those who do but of course that is my perception and it may entirely be out of ignorance.

I would never instigate discomfort but I would suggest working through it if one is mentally capable of doing so and the ability to relax is important to them. There is no gain in quitting if phasing is important to someone.

I will take the stance and claim that there is absolutely no physical danger in relaxing, phasing, or projecting.

Thanks for the great info everyone! 

I actually haven't studied any type of meditation yet although now I'm going to start.  Its so crazy how happiness can bring even more happiness.  When you think life can't get any more amazing it does!
