I have found that as humans we always want to tags things. We live with brains in a physical, structural world. As soon as we assign a tag to a person or a thing or an experience, we put them in a box. Once we put something in box, it becomes less than it once was. In information theory, you could say that we lost information.

For example, imagine classifying a person only by their occupation. Is the person who paints houses for a living, only a house painter when he is at home with his family? Or when he is taking his daughter to the amusement park? The painter may also be a father, brother, husband… He may watch NASCAR, he may write poetry… But this painter is totally unique in who he is. The tags I am using do not capture the totally of his life.

The same can be said for sex, race, ethnic background, belief system, sexual orientation… Think about how you tag people.

We also tag experiences. Tagging spiritual experiences can make them much less than they originally were. For example, telling someone, “I had a Out of Body Experience where I visited the Grand Canyon” does not completely capture all the data that you can gather with an OBE”. Don’t tag things, just experience them.

But for those who are not yet skilled enough to remove tags altogether, I suggest making the following change:

Two commonly used tags are good and bad. I propose that until we can evolve to a high enough level to avoid tagging all together, that we throw out the tags good and bad and replace them with the tags useful and not useful. Somethings that our brains would classify as bad are actually useful. Most people would classify pain as bad, but using the useful or not useful as the criteria, I would classify pain as useful. It signifies that you need to make a change.

This planet is an energy consciousness we often call Gaia that has a certain vibration. We often call this vibration DO as the lowest note in the musical scale Do Rey Me Fa So La… The DO vibration of the planet pulls us back down from being spiritual to being part of the machinery of this planet. It is the this vibration we are trying to separate from so we can reach higher levels.

Some people call this pull of the DO vibration bad because it takes them out of the spiritual state of mind that they want to be in. I call the DO useful because it makes us strong. Learning to resist it’s effect, makes us powerful.

I have been working on awareness of my own automation. I was working on being more aware of the I’s that I slip into at work. I’s that I need to do my job. But it would be nice if I had more control of my use of these I’s instead of them just taking over in reaction to a situation at work.

Note: I’s are the roles that we play in our lives, for example, parent, employee, boss, lover, friend, etc. For more information, I recommend reading Gurdjieff or his student P.D. Ouspensky. Another way of describing this is these are programs we run. Now people can run a lot of program and many of them are complicated. But they are programs none the less. Eliminating some of these programs frees up some “processing time” for better spiritual results.

As I was walking through the building people always say “hi” or “how’s it going?” Some of these people I know well others I don’t know at all. There are many, many people in the building that I work.

So I was paying attention to my body and my own automation and someone greeted me this morning. I completely fell back asleep, forgot my awareness. I answered with my own automated greeting and I forgot that I was practicing awareness.

A short time later I saw a blue shirt and I woke up again, “oh, yeah. I was practicing awareness.”

Note: I use different triggers to wake my up, to make me aware again. Many things could be used for a trigger, things like geometry, plants, etc.

And I realized that slipping into that state of automatic interactions with people made me fall asleep. Using automated responses is just like blinking your eyes. It resets you back to the Do vibration.

Note: The Do is the current vibration of planet, as in Do Rey Me Fa So La… I am trying to separate from the influence of the planet and raise myself to a higher vibration.

I told myself not to let this happen the next time someone said hi. Being aware of the problem makes it easier to combat.

As I continued to interact with people, I was watching myself. I learned two ways to remain awake while interacting with people. The first is to give an unexpected response. Example: “how is it going?” “the weather sucks, my job sucks, life sucks…” This response causes others to wake up a little. Now they are paying attention to you, wondering what is different. But when I’m doing my spiritual work at work I usually don’t want people paying attention to me.

The second way I found is to give an automated response, but do it by choice. Choose a response from a list. Don’t give your usual automated response. If someone says “hi, how’s it going?” and I usually say “Good. Busy.” then I can consciously change my response to something else. I could say “Not good. Falling behind” or “Good. More busy than yesterday; less busy than tomorrow”…

Using my consciousness to consciously pick my response kept me awake after the interaction was over.

Last night my wife and I sat down to meditate around 7 PM after we put our daughter to bed. Our dogs hadn’t settled down, but we started anyway. The dogs were play fighting in the middle of the living room floor. I have been using music from moontribe to meditate so it’s not guided and there are no song breaks. I just do things when I think they should be done. I start with relaxation, then I become aware of my body, and finally I visually the prana in the room and imaging it being attracted to me. Then I start by moving my awareness to my lower chakra. I don’t touch my chakras anymore; I just focus on this spot inside my body where my chakras are located.

Almost immediately my consciousness shifted to a higher gear. My brain was very quiet and everything seemed very still. I have hit this state many times before. I call this state cave diving. My brain feels like a very cool, very deep, very calm pool of water in a cave that extends down in the earth for hundreds of feet. I got this analogy from learning to cave dive in Florida long ago. Florida is full of underground caves, filled with fresh water that is very cold and never affected by the weather. It’s always calm and still, at least until a diver who is not mindful stirs up the silt on the bottom. Then visibility is reduced from three hundred feet to zero.

Then the phone rang and my wife stopped meditating to answer the phone. The dogs were still play-fighting. But these things didn’t affect my state of consciousness. And then my consciousness shifted again to a gear I have never hit before. I will try to describe what happened next as best I can using my brain. I felt like I had slowed down so much that things suddenly got wicked fast. I think that I may have shifted from thinking with my brain from thinking with my energy mind. I would describe my consciousness in this state as glycerin instead of water. But even more fluid, more lubricated.

Then the center of my awareness moved to an energy probe a few miles south of my house about a thousand feet above the river. This had happened before but this time was different. I was getting much more data. I was “seeing” the river, the canyon and the surrounding area. But things were more clear and more in focus than my previous times. Everything looked like daylight even though it was currently dark. My “vision” was much sharper than my previous out of body experiences. I felt like I had upgraded my psychic sensing to High Def. There was so much data I couldn’t take everything in.

Then the dogs started barking and I down shifted and my awareness moved back to my body. I finished my meditation but I didn’t reach the same state again.

Last year I had this remarkable experience with assimilation. Assimilation is the psychic skill of merging your energy with something or someone else. This can be done with inanimate objects like a chair, or living objects like trees, animals or even people. If you merge your energy properly to the frequency of the target, you begin to gather psychic information about the target.

I had played around with this skill in the past. And I personally have had success in the past assimilating trees. But I have never focused on developing this skill for an extended time. I have also had success with animals, both coyotes and dogs. But people eluded my grasp. Last year I had been having back pain for a while stemming from a biking accident. I was going to a chiropractor and that was starting to help. Then I added massage to my regimen for recovery.

The massage therapist I started working with was a personal trainer and yoga instructor. She has studied oriental philosophy and some new age material. She was also a very physical, and she had competed in fitness shows and body building competitions.

I was in a really good state of mind when I went to get a massage. I was feeling really happy. Perhaps my subconscious knew something special was about to happen. When I walked in to my massage therapist’s studio, she asked me why I was so happy. I said I didn’t know because I didn’t know… yet.

At first during my massage, I was unable to do anything but wince in pain as she worked on my back. My therapist is really strong and I even had to cry “uncle” once when she hit a pressure point really hard. Eventually she moved on beyond my back and I was able to relax a little.

The pain was still there but the endorphins had now kicked in and I was very starting to drift. My thoughts quieted as I approached the non-thought state of meditation. I reached out my awareness into the room. The room felt unusual because there weren’t any stray thoughts in the room. But I could sense the presence of my masseuse. As I continued to stretch my awareness, I started to let go of my own identity and sink into the identity of my therapist. I could feel myself becoming “female”. It was a very unusual feeling, being female, a little alien. Difficult to describe in words.

It was amazing because it really didn’t take any work on my part, just a letting go of any doubt or resistance. And I could start to feel the sensations of her body, feel being physically organized in slightly different way, and feel being very muscular. Then I began to tune into her thoughts. They were the most amazing thing. There were no stray thoughts, no mind chatter. Just a complete awareness and focus on the task at hand. I hadn’t connected to someone with a mind this quiet before. I was able to stay connected for about 10 minutes until the end of my massage.

It was an amazing experience that words do not do justice to. I am forever changed.

My 3 and half year old daughter asked me what I was doing this morning. I told her I was going downstairs to meditate. She asked if she could meditate with me. After briefly wondering how much she would affect me, I remember Eric Pepin saying the Universe is like a loving parent and tries to give you what you ask for. And I agreed to let my daughter meditate with me.

We went into the basement and started with a few minutes of the tone meditation. I told her to focus on a spot on the wall and listen for the tone in her ears. A minute or two later, she asked me “what’s that sound” and “it sounds far away”. Maybe she heard the washing machine upstairs start a new cycle. Maybe she heard “the tone”.

Then I was ready for the foundation meditation. I had planned on just putting on my earphones and meditating, but I realized this wouldn’t work. So I went and found my portable stereo. It wouldn’t power up. I remembered my mp3 player has two jacks, so I got a second set of headphones and sat down next to my daughter.

First I adjusted the cables, volume, etc, so we were ready to go. I picked an eclectic techno mix because I knew it would be new and different for her. Then I showed her how to cup her hands in her lap and told her we were going to close our eyes. We put on our headphones and started.

My intention during the meditation was to teach her and help her focus on how it works. And to use my energy to guide her to a relaxed, blissful state of mind. So as I focused on my own chakras, I also broadcast the feeling of focusing on each chakra into the room from my chest center.

My daughter got very calm and very still. I could feel the effect my broadcast was having on her. But I also recognized that having the intention of being a guide put me into this awesome place. I wanted to fly, but I knew I could not. It would be too intense for her.

I recognized it was taking all my skill to give my daughter a experience she could enjoy without being overwhelmed. I opened my eyes 2 or 3 times to check on her. Each time she was sitting next to me with her eyes closed and her hands folded properly on her lap. One or two times I went a little far, and I could feel my daughter start to fidget. I backed off, brought us down a little and she settled down.

I just switched to my mind chakra, at about the 20 minute point and realized that it was time to finish. 20 minutes is a long time for a 3 year old, so I skipped the mind chakra and started to bring us back down for an easy landing.

A very cool new experience for both me and my daughter.

Do I take the magnetic pill (formerly known as Magneurol 6-S) supplements?

Yes.

I take Magneurol and I have taken it continuously for about a year now.

Does it Help?

Yes.

When I first started taking it just less than 2 years ago there were two effects that I noticed immediately. I couldn’t talk on a cell phone for more than 2 or 3 minutes without getting nauseous. I was tuning into the energy field of the phone transmission, feeling it in my body, and my body didn’t know how to interpret it, so it felt like nausea. Fortunately that effect is long since gone.

Also my vision became sharper. Especially when looking at living things in direct sunlight. It was like shifting from watching the World Series in regular TV vs. in High Def. That effect is still around, but of course, it feels like the norm now, instead of something special.

How much does it help?

Hard to say. I guess you can judge my overall results based on what I have written. I would call them amazing.

I took it for 4 months. Then I stopped for 4 months. Now I have been taking it about a year. I looked back through my journals and counted the number of what I call “peak” experiences for a year surrounding the start/stop/start cycle. I couldn’t find a statistical difference in the number of experiences.

But I also meditate 2 times per day. Have been in the Higher Balance Star Reach Academy for 2 and half years. Changed coaches to prevent becoming “stale”. I have all the modules. Attended Higher Balance retreats in Portland and Hawaii. And I diligently practice the techniques. I also eat and live organically. .. Have removed chemicals from my environment as much as possible… Take a super high quality multi-vitamin… And get 8 hours of sleep per day.

It is worth the cost?

Yes.

But it depends. I would probably put it on the list as the fifth or sixth thing you should do, if you have the resources. If you are already doing the other five more important things and can afford to, then stack one more thing in your favor and do this too!
