Title: Feeling loose within my body
Post by: phobe on November 09, 2003, 13:30:39
A possible answer, I just came across in a book:

"In neurological terms, such experiences (spiritual practice) represent a reorganizing of activity in the brain as a whole. The loss of ego boundary and the involvement of all senses suggests that the Reticular formation is being influenced so that the processes which normally convey a sense of being rooted in space-time are inhibited. The "floating" sesation often associated with astral projection suggests that the Limbic system is also acting in a unusual mode."

hey phobe

perhaps you could tell us what is the Limbic system as well as what Reticular formation means.

floating sensation? haha

if you read my other post i was talking about a bouncing sensation when i was high on the green stuff.  haha

Well...reality is shadowy and relative.

listening to a boring speach might seem like 5hours while playing a video game for 2 hours can seem like 30 minutes

Limbic system =  brain.
kundalini = effect,with good and bad sides.important to transmit spiritual information into the brain.

whoa. sorry i never got back to explain the limbic system. not that i have a really good understanding or anything. it IS the brain, but i think the 'seat of consciousness' and where emotions are processed. plus my first reply pretty much covers whats happening.

thanks all

Lymbic System is a part of the brain, where the emotion is stored.
You can handle out of emotions, but you don't kno why you are doing this.
That is the function of the system to make faster decisions.
There is a small doorway to the Neo Cortex, here are toughts made this system is also connected to smell sense.
Neo Cortex is for doing more precise decisions/operations.

I'm not sure if someone has posted this before, because I remember seeing a thread title similar to this on a forum a while ago.

The title is sorta self explanatory.In everyday life I feel disconnected from my physical body. I could describe it as many things:

- As though my physical body is like chunky armor fitted over my etheric body.
- As though my etheric body was moving about freely within my physical body.
- As though I could fall out of my body any moment, or like I am just about to project minus vibrations.
- As though everything is a movie or film I am watching.

I believe it could be many things. It is similar to marijuana withdrawl, which is supposedly mild psychosis, but don't practicioners of Kundalini get these symptoms? I placed this topic here because I definitely belive it has something to do with my spiritual practice. Another possiblitiy I considered last night, is that my body is physiologically integrating my spiritual ideologies. As though I hjave these newfound perceptions, and my consciousness is physically altered.

Has anyone experienced this, and what are your thoughts or theories on it? Is it good, bad, etc? Thanks very much in advance!
