i've noticed when certain songs come onto my playlist i can't think striaght. my thoughts become evil/bad/difficult. ive noticed i can't post on mysticism or spirituality forums when listenting to certain music and i think it is proved that sound affects your state of mind so i figure for doctorJ and all you other mystics i recoomend http://www.deeptrancenow.com/babaji.htm this website
its an awesome slideshow but i just leave it in the background and listen to the song and its nice.
also, some pink floyd Fearless, dogs, sheep grateful dead estimated prophet and fire on the mountain
of course these songs works for me, you know you better if you are aware of the changes in your head you can help make the WORK we are doing easier

who is we?
certainly music has a deep impact upon the brain..... i don't generally listen to it much anymore.
what is the slideshow about?

ive heard Ravi Shankar too. one person put Shankar on speakers and put it next to plants. the plants all grew towards!! the speakers playing Ravi. they stayed put or moved away with other types of music, especially rock. but rock includes alot. but maybe plants like music that is bad for us, who knows?

I've heard plants like classical too......

I thought it was fitting you could post this here about meditation. Meditation definitely is amazing. For all of those who participate - you are helping formulate an incredibly powerful program that will serve as the basis for both "real life" workshops and a potential "Bridge" meditation course that will combine Remote Viewing and Remote Influencing together seamlessly.
The 1st workshop teaches a technique to enter the Void of Delta consciousness through the Infinity Breathing technique and become familiar with what it is like to reside both within and without, both as part of and all of, the One. To complete this workshop is to see that when we are connected to the Void we are stepping outside of ourselves and experiencing life as it is in its entirety, instead of only through our 6 senses. The culmination of the 1st workshop will see to it that trainees are then able to step inside and outside of themselves whenever one or the other is most beneficial (both to self and One), and to know which instances are more beneficial for one way of perceiving reality or the other.
This meditation allows you to link your breath to infinity. The surprises are left in the experience.
Infinity Breathing Technique
Steps for the Technique:
0) Suggestion - Play some suitable background noise/music, my recommendations are (feel free to add recommendations!): The Drone Zone, you can find this Winamp Internet Radio Station if you search for it on Shoutcast.com, The Theta/Delta CD that accompanies the RI course, and The Mind Meditation audio files that were made available in the recommendations section.
1) Preparation - With optional background music playing quietly, otherwise, with no outside noise (or as little as possible), lie down, flat on back, head on pillow(s) (or flat if you prefer), under a blanket if it is cold, in as good of health as possible, no mental or emotional concerns, perfectly content, sleepy but not too sleepy, on a comfortable bed, and begin doing the light-breathing technique if you know how to do it. If not, begin breathing in and out slowly, in an effort to slow your breathing, your heartbeat and the natural pulse of the body, pausing between breathing both in and out.
2) Contemplation - At this point, the mental "realization" of infinity is engaged, such that our continuously expanding perception of infinity is achieved by linking it to our breath. Before linking them, we may try to imagine how vastly incomprehensible infinity is all on it's own, ie., imagining oneself travelling forever in a single direction of space. Now, in the case of this technique, we will use the concept of imagining oneself expanding and becoming infinitely larger as long as our breath in will last, and imagining oneself contracting and becoming infinitely smaller as long as our breath out will last. We will always build upon the point we had gotten to in our previous set of in-breaths and out-breaths, such that we will always perceive ourselves as having travelled further into macro or micro-scopia with each consecutive breath than the time before.
3) Actualization - Now that the technique is properly perceived and all variables have been set in favour of the attempt succeeding, we begin with a breath out, and a small-scale association to go with it. We will imagine that as we breathe out, we are shrinking down to the size of an atom, and we watch everything around us "zoom by" as we do so. We see ourselves as being a speck. This can be used as the "starting point" that we will never return to until just before the end of the technique. The breathing-micro/macroscopia association truly begins from this point on. At the first breath in, we will imagine ourselves growing from the point of being an atom all the way to encompassing this entire planet, solar system, or universe, depending on how far we can imagine ourselves expanding while we breathe in as much as we can, as slowly as we can. The next breathe out will bring us well past the atom we were starting out as, to a point where we can see that this atom in fact represents the "casing" of a universe one level "below" our own. We will zoom right past it to the point where what had seemed so small before now seems incredibly large, continuing on until we are out of breath. The next breath in will work the same way but in the opposite direction. We will zoom right past the brink of the universe to a point where it seems as an atom inside of another universe one level "up". The next set of breaths will bring us "two" levels down and up, then "three", and so on and so forth.
4) Metamorphosis - This final step, in a sense, "actualizes the actuality". It is crucial to perceive the "flip" points during this technique, where the very small suddenly seem very large and vice versa, because you must at some point remove the notion of zooming in or out X amount of levels, and simply zoom in and out as far as possible, always further, feeling the "flip" points as "ridges" as though you were sliding through a cylinder with performations, kind of like a cylindrical Ruffles Chip! These ridges will then begin to smoothen, as One and Infinity begin to collapse into one another, and by this point, if successful, you will surely not be feeling your physical body anymore. You are essentially engaging this technique to pull the "Two" (I have talked about this in other recent posts) back into "One", by making two Infinities into One Infinity, and it is by doing so that you can enter the Void, the source and destination of all reality, more easily this way than perhaps through some other techniques.
5) Id - If the metamorphosis is successful, your ego, now without anything to associate itself to, transforms into Id, and you can experience the subconscious bliss of total connectness with a kind of consciousness that will become less foggy and hazy with practise and experience. In this place, if one can maintain it, the source of what makes RV and RI work is contained, and it is here best we can see how seamless they are and how they can be combined.

does the visualization have to be constantly seen to the point of being real?

Yes Leery the visualisation does have to be there.
Hopefully this, and the picutre after it explains it a little bit better
I wrote this down for a couple of mates, step by step, on how to reach the void. They found it quite handy so hopefully it will shed some light on how to get there a bit easier if your having trouble or clear up any doubts you had about the technique.
1) Relax body from head to toe.
2) Once relaxed, picture yourself from where your doing the meditation. (1st person view as in exactly how you would normally see if you opened your eyes)
3) Once you have pictured yourself in your meditation place, I want you to realise that you will never stop at that spot again, as you consciously expand and contract your body or light/consciousness
4) When you breathe in, and inhale deeply you expand your consciousness outwards to as far as you think the universe is. Once you have reached that point take a mental note how "big" that universe actually is compared to you on your world. And try and see the difference in distance. Can you see yourself from the furthest point from which you have expanded to your consciousness too, looking down on yourself from out of space to earth. You are absolutely microscopic compared to the rest of the universe.
After you have seen the difference in distance you are ready to exhale.
(before you get to the next step there is something that you need to realise that will make this work a lot easier.. As the universe is so huge and we don’t really know how big it is...OUR earth could be as big as a grain of sand if we compare that to how big the universe actually is. With that understood, you are ready to move onto the next part.)
5) As you exhale you imagine you zoom your consciousness all the way in from the boundaries of the universe that you expanded it too, to our own earth and picture your consciousness/body of light going into a grain of sand, which also has a mini universe in it. If you can picture the earth being a grain of sand compared to the size of universe, then you will have no problems of zooming into that grain of sand and imagining that as you zoom into it, there is another universe in it, just as big as the one we are in now.
Once that is realised, that the universe and earth you landed on in the grain of sand is just as big as the one we are in now..and you have seen the difference in distance from you on this microscopic world within the grain of sand to the end of the universe into our own universe and where you are now lying down, then we are ready to move onto the next breath in.
6) Now as you inhale this time, you go from the microscopic world you landed on in the grain of sand, expand up 1 level into our universe and past our body, THEN, imagine consciousness expanding to the end of our universe into another universe (all in the one breath)......So really when you have expanded from our universe into the one above, its exactly the same as you expanding from the grain of sand universe into our universe. Once you have made a mental note and "seen" the difference in distance from the end of your expanded light body, to where you actually are doing the mediation, then you are ready to exhale.
7) When you exhale, you contract and zoom "in" your consciousness from the two universes you have expanded to, and contract into the tiny grain of sand, and within that tiny grain of sand world, there is another world just as big within a grain of sand in that tiny world you imagined, which i want you to zoom into.
8 ) You keep that process going Of Expanding and Contracting your consciousness/light body UP A LEVEL/UNIVERSE AND DOWN A LEVEL/UNIVERSE "ONE" MORE TIME THAN YOU DID ON THE PREVIOUS WORLD WITH EACH BREATH...
9) You get to stage when trying to take mental notes of how far you actually are in distance, you start to lose count of how many worlds you have expanded and contracted and accept, that the further you expand your consciousness and contract it is one more universe than the time before...
10) Between 10 - 50 times of picturing yourself do this. This is the fun part and realisation...If you haven’t already you start to view yourself from a 3rd person view...And you notice Every breath you take to expand and contract is just the same as in the way (infinity is just a continuous loop) And you realise that, each universe you expand into and contract into is really the same size.... When you can see your lightbody/consciousness merge into One, once that is realised this expanding out and contracting motion disappears and all your universes collapse into one and that’s’ when you experience total stillness and bliss of entering into the void.

Do you realize that your Infinity Breathing Technique is just a trick?
Thats right....a trick.
It is a mental game you play, with your self, to get past the 10-20 focused breaths.
There are many of these games/tricks that you can play to make your self focus on the breath.........which is the primary point in meditation.
Im glad that you have found a way of meditating that works for you. Meditation has changed my life, made me happy.
I will definatly give this game a try.......

hmmm.
well when you are in between sleep and awake you often feel very big or very small.... this may be a way of getting there.
visualization is not even close to my forte. i tried this briefly but was not having effects necessary. it is interesting and i will probably try it more.

Exactly right. And that is when you feel FREEEE. It is all about staying in that perception permanently and deciding when you want to experience all the "pleasurable" experiences from 1st person type of view. Everything is perceived in varying ratios and only the absolute is sacred.
EQ wrote:
What I meant was, that which is sacred, is from beyond this world, is absolute. There is no 0% or 100% in our reality, only 0.0000...1% and 99.99999...%. We have conceived so much of our mathematics in terms of the absolute but really entire new realms of mathematics could be opened up based on this more accurate way of perceiving things. Things can gravitate to become an extremely biased ratio (hence the 0.0000...1% and 99.99999...%), but it is only by recognizing this and dwelling on the journey towards the absolute, and not putting what we observed up on a pedastal as having already reached this realm of the absolute, that we may transcend the border (as already recognized in the Law of Limits in Calculus) and reach the absolute INDIRECTLY.
The old perspective and reality of viewing things seems to see everything in terms of absolute, ie. "this is this, that is that, etc.". And for the most part, this is fine, since this was indeed 99.9...% this and that was 99.9...% that, but what's important to realize is how little anything is really and truly 100% it. Think about it, take it down to the atomic scale, we really need to base our thinking models off of this most fundamental truth! It will change everything!
Why? Because conflict does not come from the absolute or near-absolute, the absolute is sacred, and the near-absolute is the foundation of our reality. It comes from the more ambiguous and subjective matter in our reality, and not acknowledging it as such. By doing so, we don't have to obligate our minds to categorize everything, it can, when given sufficient evidence, but when not given sufficient evidence, the mind should be free to leave said interpretation of stimuli in a state of flux for as long as necessary, and to treat it as such.
Anyways, They key concept for this adjustment is that we no longer see things as being "good" or "bad", but as in a state of flux between those poles, or any other poles, until really, honestly and truly, sufficient evidence is given to allow the sight of said thing to float into a status of near-absolution, and no sooner.
There can be no conflict with this type of thinking, as thus, nothing at all, at all at all, is seen as "good", or "bad", or even anything else. It either is what it is, or has the potential to be two or more things, or any combination of them, in any ratio.
The issue really at hand here is our definition of "purity". What on this world is truly 100% pure? Practically nothing is! Almost everything is at least a little impure if analyzed to a deep enough degree, and contains however infinitessimally small a percentage of something else to validate my claim.
Why is this important? Because EVERYTHING can be perceived in these terms! Take opinions - what opinions do you hold that you believe in the whole 100%? Or beliefs - is there anything you believe in so strongly you would say you are 100% sure about it?
Soon one can realize that there are indeed things that are absolute, much fewer things than things that are non-absolute, and the difference between them is that those which are absolute come from the realm of the sacred - our instincts, the elements, etc. EVERYTHING ELSE is so much more subjective than we ever realized!
