A Powerfully Beautiful Out-Of-Body Experience

An out-of-body experience (OOBE) is when your energy/ethereal/astral body leaves your physical body, allowing you to float around the universe on another plane. This may sound like crazy at first, but there is much evidence out there validating these experiences. I thought it was hogwash until I had my first OOBE two years ago, but that’s a story for a future article detailing OOBE’s and how to achieve them.
Robert Monroe first legitimized OOBE’s by creating the Monroe Institute and refining a process by which anyone could come in an experience an OOBE. He then collected several decades worth of written reports from thousands of people. He shared many of his favorite reports in his Journeys Out Of the Body books, but the following report takes the cake.

This is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever read…

Context: A woman is recounting one of her final OOBE’s at the Monroe Institute. At the beginning of this story, she has already left her body and is interacting with some of the other participants in her class.
“I was suddenly drawn by a powerful force to one room in particular — to one CHEC Unit in particular. It took me by total surprise, for the man in that unit was someone I didn’t know very well. In fact, he was the only one at the workshop I had never really had a chance to talk to. He was a young, good-looking psychologist, yet for some reason we seemed to be purposely avoiding each other.
All at once I had an all-knowing, as I seemed to float over him, that his vibrations were my vibrations. I had an overwhelming desire to meld, to feel a part of him — to become one. It was truly one of the sharpest and clearest of experiences.

I gave to him both my body and soul until there was this tremendous energy surge that rocked and exploded in us. It was an experience that is beyond words, for love, total and absolute, surrounded us more strongly than can’ be earthly experienced or imagined. The more I gave, the greater I received and I didn’t want to let go. I wanted to give him even more. It was like two energies in perfect unison becoming one at last. (I can remember thinking how physical sex paled in comparison.)

Memories of past lives together came rushing in like flashes of light. We talked in this state and I came to realize this experience could only have happened at the end of the workshop as it did, for each of us would have been distracted had we ‘met’ earlier on — perhaps hampering other growth experiences that week. There was a meeting of both our minds with this experience and I knew our meeting had been more than coincidence — it was predestined.

I truly experienced everything I asked for and more, and when I came down to the meeting room after the tape there was an unusual heightened energy where people seemed to be flying. I saw ‘him’ as I came down the stairs to join the group and he looked at me excitedly, ecstatically, as if something totally incredible had happened to him. I hadn’t said a word yet, as he quietly repeated a number of times, ‘Thank you. Thank you.’ I felt elated — I had made contact. We compared our individual experiences, making sure each of us was not coloring the other’s story. It didn’t matter — our stories fit like puzzle pieces, matching perfectly and interlocking. We both had also had the use of all our senses — the strongest being touch.

After this experience we were later reunited to share others together. We’ve been with each other for the past two years now — growing and loving together.”

 Those in the lower degrees [of Freemasonry] are given carefully elaborated symbols which could be interpreted in a new way in each higher degree, so that only those who reached the highest degree were fully able to understand the whole of it.

The natural state. Our moods change. Our lives change. Our feelings for each other change. Our bearings change. The song changes. The air changes. The temperature of the shower changes. Accept this. We must accept this.

sine wave diagram of long term history  


It takes 2,160 years for the Sun to clear a house/zodiac constellation. This is equal to 30° of the ecliptic. The Sun enters a constellation at the 30th degree, but is not totally clear until the 33rd degree, as it self is 3° big. This is why the Bible says that the “ministry of Christ begins at 30 and finishes at 33. This is also 1 of many reasons why Freemasons use the number 33.
   The Sun moves backwards through Ages(as shown above), and forward through the signs and constellations. This sine-wave is where we get the word “Sin” from. Sin has nothing to do with disobeying the Church or “God”. Sin is living in the material world and the 3rd dimension…thus we have the SINe wave, of which we must evolve.

cool!

PSYCHEDELIC-CUPCAKES :)

No matter how smart, skilled, or capable you are, nothing is possible or achievable without a disciplined mind. Discipline is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, whether you want to or not at any given moment. It is the most important of all the virtues because without it, you can’t practice any other virtue consistently.

The Old Kingdom pyramid texts declares Anubis as the one associated with the burial of kings. He shared the Kingdom of the Dead with Osiris, another god in the Egyptian pantheon. He was referred to as “the one upon the mountain” and “the one who oversees embalming”. He is established as an important protector of the deceased and lord of mummification. Like other deities in the ancient Egyptian pantheon, he assumed different roles at different times. In public processions, he was invoked to lead the people.

 In the biblical story of Jacob, he discovers a secret mystical ‘ladder to Heaven’ with angels descending and ascending to and fro. In order to climb this ladder, Jacob must wrestle the Angel Samael. In victory, Jacob demanded that Samael ‘bless him’ and his name was changed to Israel. This place, called Penile(pineal gland/Inner Eye) was where “Israel” saw God face to face. In this story, the ‘ladder’ that Jacob used to climb to the land of Penile was in fact the 33 vertebrae of the spinal column which led to the Heavens above in the brain (opening of the Krown Chakra).

I'm happy to be .....the two basic characteristics of Aquarian types, are individuality and freedom of expression. Regarding the former, Aquarians are creative individualists who naturally express their own uniqueness and specialness. In Sanskrit this unique characteristic of any entity is called its Svabhava or “Self-Becoming”. It means self-directed evolution adhering to one’s essential nature with its individualist set of qualities and characteristics.

  The Truth is that, there are people who will only be there for you, as long as you have something they need or want. When you no longer serve a purpose to them, they will leave. The good news is, you’ll eventually weed these people out of your life, and be left with people you can count on. We rarely lose friends and lovers, we just gradually figure out who our real ones are. So when people walk away from you, let them go.

Can an omnipotent God create a task he is unable to complete? Is perception limited, if only temporarily, with a growing infinite? Does my creator pose the same questions to his creator as I pose to him? Does my creator’s creator pose the same questions to his creator?…

The Incompleteness Theorems are applications of logic which extend beyond mathematics. The theorems state that any system of logic cannot deductively prove itself to be true; i.e., there must be at least 1 axiom that is inductively reasoned through observation and cannot be deductively confirmed. For example, cavemen could take into account gravity’s effects when hunting, but precisely quantifying gravitational forces did not occur until Newton’s discoveries. It took over 200 years more for Einstein’s general relativity to expand the application of gravitational laws to a broader set of cases. Today, scientists hypothesize on how these forces exist and are in search of the graviton and Higgs boson elementary particles. Although the effects of these particles are detected and included into the Standard Model, they have yet to be “seen”. If/when these particles are found, more questions would present themselves, in accordance with the Incompleteness Theorems. Where did these forces come from? What sub-elementary particles make up the elementary particles? What sub-sub particles make up those?…

Despite being able to make millions of calculations/sec, artificial intelligence still lags behind human cognition. The distinction surely lies with consciousness, or the awareness of being aware. Without consciousness, a futuristic computer would
not be able to look at its own processes and see the futility of the endeavor. Could
“breaking out of the loop” be the key to emergence of complex systems out of simpler parts? How does consciousness emerge out of neurons, and neurons out of cells, and cells out of atoms, and…

There seems to be an infinite number of microscopic subatomic particles, forces, and events that must converge at an unconscious level for the improbability of consciousness to arise. Benjamin Libet’s experiments demonstrate that electrodes are able to detect brain activity which can predict my preference for Justin Bieber over Lady Gaga (among other less important things) up to 10 seconds before I am aware of my own choice. If the interactions between neurons occur many moments before I feel these neurotransmitters, is free will an illusion? It appears that the brain is aware of itself after neurons have been fired, just as neurons would be aware of themselves after cells have interacted, and…

In a future with vastly superior computers that can handle and answer any question thrown at them, what would I do? Do I continue to find a brighter light to shine into the void like a program calculating pi? Or do I look into the darkness and create beauty and meaning through art? Or do I follow the Zen path by observing the absurdity of these infinite loops and paradoxes from outside this system? Or do I…

I Took The Red Pill

I’ve never believed in God. Not fully. I was open to all options, and didn’t tackle the big questions or dwell on them too often, because when I did I couldn’t stop. They set my mind spiraling out of control, and I didn’t think that we were ‘meant’ to know. Taking such a broad stance on religion, I still felt pulled to spirituality. I attended a Buddhist group in college for about a year, though I was reading the text without understanding it. I was meditating without feeling it. I wore the label, but it did absolutely nothing for me at the time.
Then, at some unidentifiable time, MY BRAIN EXPLODED!

I like to write about the beauty that peaks out from the routine day. I recently re-discovered my love for writing by re-discovering my love for the world. My mind is in a continual state of revolution, that I’d like to share and spread. What’s a revolution without supporters, anyway? Spreading positivity and inspiration fills my life’s cup. http://www.highexistence.com

Maybe it's strange
I've barely made a sound for twenty-four hours
But what's to say
When all that's inside is poison to everyone
But I know one day I'll find a new light
And I will take the sickness and I'll bury it down
Cause every moment, every second
Should be precious, understand
That I don't know how to live
At all
Maybe I'll change
Start a sick cult on mysterious islands
Or run away
And tell the whole world there's anger in all of us
But I know one day I'll find a new light
And I will take this sickness and bury it down
Cause every moment, every second
Should be precious, understand
That I don't know how to live
No I don't know how to live
But I don't know how to live

Without you

aahahahah, MAESTRO!

The Simple Secret to Enjoying Meditation

Meditation is not easy.
Many people read about the benefits of meditating for 20 minutes each day and try to do just that, resulting in discouraging failure.
Meditating for 20 minutes the first time is like trying to bench 450lb on your first day at the gym. Or attempting a black diamond course your first day on skis.
It’s going to end in frustration and boredom, and will likely taint meditation for a long time. Meditation then feels like a difficult chore as opposed to something natural, centering and pleasurable.
Instead, shoot for just 30 seconds. Once you can go the whole time without your mind wandering, double the duration. Repeat.
When your mind does wander, don’t be down on yourself! Simply accept it and center your thoughts once more. Becoming frustrated about this will only set you back further.
You’ll work your way to 20 minutes in no time.

This scene in Inglourious Basterds, this particular part, was so brilliantly written. The characters are playing a game where you sit in a circle and write a famous person’s name on a card, flip it over, pass the card to the person next to you and stick it to your head without looking. Then you ask everyone questions to figure out who it is. This man- a Nazi commander- asked “Am I American?” (no but..) “Have I visited America?” (yes) “Was my visit fruitious?” (no) “Did I go against my will?” (yes) “Am I from a place you’d call exotic?” (yes) “Am I from the jungle?” (yes) “Did I go by boat?” (yes) “And when I got there was I bound with chains and presented in front of a crowd?” (yes!) “Well then. I know who I am. An African slave. No? Oh then I’m King Kong.” — and in one instance the viewer realizes the metaphor which King Kong was to the African slave trade (a truly Tarantino way of inserting social awareness through dialogue spoken by social oppressors) as well as takes a moment of almost comic relief to a very strange middle ground since we see just how intelligent and foolproof this man is. This is good filmmaking.

Heart Consciousness, Love and Enlightened Living

 

"The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart."
Buddha

The bridge between science and spirituality begins with the heart. The heart is the regulator of our energetic state, working synergistically with the nervous system and the brain to bring coherence and positive emotion to life. It produces the strongest   electromagnetic field in the body, one that extends all around us, allowing for energetic communication of this coherence with all of life. Thus, the heart breaks down internal and external environments and allows us access to the oneness of life.
The first part of this article introduces the science of it all, revealing that the heart is the center of our being in terms of our energetic and emotional state and how this organ allows for communication and interaction with all of life.
The second provides exercises to increase coherence and love on a personal and global level. We will dive into learning many loving-kindness meditations.
