Spiritual Interpretation Of Kundalini And Vibrations As Provided By Theosophy And Yoga:

In Theosophy and Yoga vibrations are considered as special form of kundalini manifestation.

According to a hinduistic myth the god Shiva created the universe by emanating the sound OM. In the saga the first stage of universe was a large ocean. On the surface of this ocean consisting of the substance “supreme consciousness” (Sanskrit: chitta, personified as Shiva) this vibrational force OM (personified as the female aspect, called Shakti) caused waves (called chittavrittis). These waves were the first traces of individualism. By differentiation of these waves the diversity of forms and matter of universe originated. Read the rest of this entry »

Introduction

OBEs, in a strict sense, are fascinating phenomena, but I also find the states that occur immediately before and after them to be full of interesting phenomena in themselves. The events that occur in these pre- and post-OBE states have received some attention over the years, including in sleep laboratories, but probably deserve closer study by those who experience OBEs under regular conditions. Such is the focus of this article. Before proceeding, and in response to a friend´s comment on a previous article, I do consider OBEs to be real but I make no judgments here on their relationship to other PSI phenomena, such as lucid dreams. It may well be that these two phenomena share certain qualities or are closely related. And it might be that both are part of a greater confederation.  Read the rest of this entry »

The question: “Can you speculate on the larger meaning of life and how one should live in the physical? From your experiences, what is the reason for existence on this plane?”

Well to begin answering these questions, the first thing to appreciate is that we have grown up in a society that has lost touch with these answers. Overall, our society has lost touch with the essential purpose of life, unless you feel this is to aquire things and be real important.  Read the rest of this entry »

WEATHER

Many Taoist-oriented meditators, martial artists, and psychics say it isn’t a good idea to practice during thunderstorms, typhoons, etc. You make yourself vulnerable to harmful energies, or energy that is just too wild for you to incorporate. Also, it is supposedly nearly impossible to concentrate your will and energy in a high wind. My attempts at doing qigong on the beach corroborate this claim. Just doesn’t seem to work.

This might extend to OOBEs as well. Wind and storms penetrate through many energy levels; their medium is not just “physical” air. Might not be a good idea to try OOBing during a thunderstorm, although then again, you might have a very memorable experience.  Read the rest of this entry »

Nomenclature

The most usual terms are: silver cord, silver chord, astral cord.

In literature and in the news the terms “silver cord” and “astral cord” are used without making any difference. I have split the two terms into two different meanings, assigning silver-cord as a term for the etheric cord phenomenon and astral cord as a term for the astral cord phenomenon. Below experiences and speculations are presented, underlining the use of two different terms. Read the rest of this entry »

Projection

This term means in a shortened way “projecting your consciousness into an inner dimension of awareness (or astral plane)”.

The projection method described below worked for me in the morning between brief sleep sequences (for instance on Sunday mornings until 9 or 10 o´clock). The method seems easy to start, but difficult to develop to the desired degree of bodyawareness in a 3D-world. Read the rest of this entry »

Here is another method for achieving the level of awareness necessary to effect an OOBE. Lay on your back with your arms bent at 90 degree angles above your head (as you would with your hands behind your head except that the arms are one over the other above your head).

I have found this enables me to achieve the state of quieting the “internal dialogue”. While in this mode of non-thinking and relaxed state, you await the humming vibration that generally passes through area of the upper nape of the neck to the mid level of the ears.

When this sensation begins to pass through (this is the critical junction), immediately and gently focus on the area of the solar plexus. You must do this as a gentle shift of focus. Do this without thinking (internal dialogue will generally reverse this state). This will result in a surge of the vibratory humming developing into a profuse dissipating wave of vibration that passes like a bolt of energy through the upper body to the focal point of the solar plexus at which point spontaneous separation occurs.

Stepping out (rocking out) of the (physical) body

In my first OBE´s, when performing this kind, I had the impression to be fixed to my physical body by something, that felt like many threads of rubber. By means of rocking I could tear these threads and leave my physical body. I now had my awareness in an other body, a subtle one, as it felt like. By the time the process of separation became more easy and at last I could step out of the physical body without any hindrance. Read the rest of this entry »
