First AP, practice timespan

[SweP]

Evening all Pulsers,
How long did you practice before your first successfully AP? Also had you ever meditated before? And how was your experience?

[justin35ll]

Took me about 1 or 2 months of practicing and I had a deep desire to do it. I never meditated before and it was exciting and great!

This thread probably belongs in another section though since it's not an experience

I didn't practice... it just happened and evolved... but I have taught it or rather shown people how to do it and it varies with each person. The trance state/Sleep Paralysis/vibrational state (call it what you may) is quite easy to achieve.

But... that's like giving someone a pencil and a box of paints... it takes practice and hard work to become a proficient artist.

But it is like saying 'how long is a piece of string'?.

Some people practice for years... some months.... some weeks.. some days... some try it first time and it works.

You will get many different answers.

I totally agree with Bedeekin. It may takes some months, some weeks, some days or just one day or night. So, do more and more practice and have patience.

Yeah I understand it's individual but maybe the majority of people do it between 1-3 months. You didn't have to practice anything it was just naturally. Maybe you was higher spiritual developed when you come here.

Personally I did my seventh meditation session today and I enjoy it a lot, I become so relaxed. The last 2-3 times I stuck at the same place I cant go any deeper I would say I am deeply physical relaxes and in light trance (but not sure it it's light or nothing at all).

Heres one, Ive never practised.
I been exercising the art all my life. I have more trouble getting to the RTZ than anything, go figure???

Yeah I understand it's invidual but maybe the majority of people do it between 1-3 months and that's what I try to figure out. You didn't have to practice anything it was just natuarlly. Maybe you was higher spiritual developt when you come here.

I'm not sure about the majority... or we would have hundreds if not thousands of active members on here, but if your goal is 1 - 3 months then that's cool and nothing to do with a majority success... it's good to have a goal. Keep up the practice.

I will have to say I wasn't really highly developed spiritually.. I was only 11 and it's only the last 2 years that I would say I have achieved a level of what you might call 'spirituality'... I'm 39 now. I still don't understand what that word means really or whether indeed I am.
