A Science Fiction book I recently read described something the author called the “supreme meme”. Paraphrasing, the supreme meme was described as the experience would you have to have in your life such that you would live your life over and not change one single detail. Even the bad/painful/stupid actions and experiences… Because if one detail was changed, the outcome might not be the same, you might miss that experience.

In my mind I replaced the word experience in the above description with the words level of consciousness…

In the past, some part of me has always thought or felt that if I had only been closer to Eric Pepin/Higher Balance/Portland that my life would have been better. That I would have reached a higher level of consciousness at this point in my life. Now I have now reached a level of completeness in my life… my own supreme meme. I have sufficiently expanded my own consciousness enough to have a level of satisfaction. I would no longer go back and change my life if I could… because the smallest change in my life up to now might not lead to this exact same spot… Eric Pepin and I might pass by each other… like two ships in the fog… never seeing each other.

One of the keys to my own progress and development has been the amount of time I have got to spend around Eric. I have been lucky enough to see Eric at three previous Higher Balance retreats and twice have had one-on-one time with Eric. I have been truly blessed. It hasn’t been a lot in terms of total number of hours, but it has been enough. I no longer wish that things had been different in my life and I had been one of Eric’s personal students. What I have had has been enough for me…

There was a new arrival in our house this weekend. My wife gave birth to a baby girl on Sunday morning. The mother and baby are at home now and doing great. We already have one daughter, who is adopted. This was the first time we have done this “the old-fashioned way”.

This has been a very interesting summer at my house. I will try to keep the narrative in order as much as possible. It all started about four months ago. My wife went to a Higher Balance Mt. Hood retreat while I stayed home with our daughter. Eric Pepin came to the cabin and recorded the Higher Balance class Eyes Wide Shut. My wife called me an hour before the event started to tell me Eric was on the way to the cabin, but she didn’t that Eric planned to teach a class.

About two hours later, after putting my daughter to bed, I sat down in my meditation spot with the lights turned down and no headphones or music. I started by thinking about my wife and Mt. Hood the cabin even though I hadn’t yet ever been to the Mt. Hood cabin. Then I let myself go to a place of non-thought. After about 15 minutes, it felt like I was at a cabin, the cabin. I couldn’t hear the words or see the people, but I tuned in and recognized the frequency of most of the people who were there.

My wife said during the class that the new baby was really excited and kept punching and kicking her during the entire class. A Higher Balance coach told my wife after the class was over that the new baby was being programmed on a cellular level. My wife later realized that the new baby learned and began to recognize Eric Pepin’s voice before she was born. The new baby would have the same reaction whenever my listen to a class from HB.

Briefly skipping ahead, I had a strange sense of deja vu many times while listening to the class Eyes Wide Shut. Like I had already received this training but had forgotten. A Higher Balance coach told me on the phone a few weeks after the class was recorded that when he looked at my wife, at one point he saw my frequency right next to her. This last week I finally got to the last 2 DVDs of Eyes Wide Shut. And on DVD, much to my surprise, Eric says, “and right on queue, Steve is tuning in.” Further confirmation of my experience. Having confirmation always help break down the governor, the mechanism in the brain that tells us what is possible and what is not.

The next day after recording Eyes Wide Shut my wife had a one-on-one with Eric and he told her some interesting things including the new baby would be “special”, he wanted to meet her when she arrived, and most of the child care duties would fall to my wife.

Then just before the current Eric Pepin trek across America I was asked to arrange an event at my house and an event out in town. This led to me spending several hours at the local Unity Church and attending a Sunday service there. The speaker that weekend was Shirley Scott, an animal communicator (pet psychic).

After the service Shirley stayed and continued to do readings for pets and I stayed to make contacts with people from the church. I singed up to have a booth at the upcoming holistic fair to attempt to sell HB products. Shirley and my wife and I were the last ones there. Diane and I then decided to go home and get our problem Golden Retriever and get a reading from Shirley. Shirley said the dog didn’t have to be present for the reading, but I wanted to watch her work in person.

Eric talks on Mind Touch about how a powerful psychic could “fix” someone’s future by overwriting their energy. And that Eric doesn’t do psychic readings anymore for that reason. I normally wouldn’t go to a psychic for this reason. But I didn’t think it would hurt to have a reading on my dog. Shirley said my dog wasn’t happy at our house and wanted to live in on a farm in a home with a teenage boy. Making a long story short, our dog ended up a week later being very, very happy living on a farm as a working dog with a teenage boy.

For the next few weeks, I worked nights and weekends to prepare HB materials to hand out at the holistic fair. When the holistic fair day arrived, it was bitter cold day and I had booth outside right next to Shirley. There wasn’t interest from very many people in HB stuff that day but the people who were interested often stayed for an hour or more and also came back several times. I handed out free HB material that day and I also got to watch Shirley work during the slow times. She always had people and animals waiting in line for readings.

At one point I ended up in a group of psychics talking shop. One of my realizations was that with my training and skill, I could work with a psychic and make them better. At the end of the day I was so impressed with the work Shirley did with people and animals that my wife and I both sat for short readings.

Shirley told me some interesting things that paralleled things Eric Pepin had told me at a Mt. Hood one-on-one the month before. Shirley said I have an opportunity right now to start a business and to become a coach. That right now I give too much, and I need to create limits and balance between work/family/training of others. Also when I don’t charge for my work, it allows people undervalue the knowledge I have to offer.

Shirley told my wife that the baby would be born in one week (she was), wouldn’t speak until she was three or four but would communicate telepathically, and we might have to home school her because she would be ready for first grade at age four. She also told my wife that the baby would be a very powerful healer and the soul was already following my wife around. And the final thing she told my wife was that for a few years, it would largely be her job to keep me grounded and be the business manager for me, making sure I charged people, and raising our children to fulfill their destiny.

I should have realized something was up when I woke up this last Saturday morning. My wife smelled different and I told her so. I also told her I didn’t think it was a real smell but a chemical change in her blood that presented itself to me through my sense of smell. It reminded me strongly of previously assimilating a coyote and paying attention to mix between a coyote’s sense of taste and smell. I had a feeling then that animals knew when they were going to give birth through this same mechanism.

That day I had to drive two hours away to help a friend move. When I returned home 12 hours later, tired and sore, my wife informed me that she had been in labor for 3 hours already. A few hours later the contractions got very close together and we had to go the hospital.

I wasn’t really able to work on spiritual or psychic level in the hospital. I was just too tired and my back hurt too badly. A couple of times, I closed my eyes and saw the white flashes of energy moving through the room, maybe souls or entities, I don’t know. One time I lay down on the couch and closed my eyes. I was able to reach a very light level of sleep and monitor the events in the room at the same time for about an hour. That was a cool experience that was new to me.

My wife said later she did use her HB training a couple of times to handle the pain and to make physical changes to her body. I tried to watch for the energy or the aura when the baby crowned, but after 24 hours on my feet, I wasn’t able to see or tune into the soul entering the body.

This knowledge all comes from Eric Pepin of the Higher Balance Institute. The brilliance is all his. Any mistakes are purely mine.

What is prana?

Energy is all around us and is woven into the fabric of this dimension. You could say that is part of God streaming down from a higher dimension to this dimension.

Prana is energy. But we use the word prana, we are usually describing a specific kind of energy. Like banana is a type of fruit. Prana is a type of energy.

Prana is energy that does not have any programming, any intention. If I sent healing energy to my daughter to heal her, it is the same energy as prana. But now it comes from me, not God. It has a program, an intention, to heal. When we meditate, we collect the prana around us. When we heal, we send out energy with a program.

How do we gather prana when we use the Foundation meditation technique?

We can only attract prana when we think about prana because God is so afraid of hurting us, that he will not approach with his energy, with prana, unless he is invited.

Why would we be hurt by God’s prana?

Until we have trained our bodies to accept that much prana, it would be overwhelming, too intense.

Because our bodies do not know any better, they would resist. And our resistance would cause damage, either physical damage or energetic body damage.

There are many stories of people being injured, either their physical body or their energy body, from Kundalini energy surges.

The first time I meditated with a group of people from Higher Balance, it was so intense I wanted to run from the room screaming. I didn’t, but I did have to put up a shield to block out the energy of the other people in the room.

Are there other methods to gather prana?

Yes, there are other methods to attract prana. We attract prana when we sleep.

We also attract prana whenever we think about prana, not just during meditation. The problem is we always forget to think about prana during the day, Eric calls this “falling asleep”. Many things cause us to “fall asleep” and not think about prana. Even blinking our eyes causes us to fall asleep.

When people talk to us and we respond, we fall asleep.

I use triggers to keep myself aware of prana. And I frequently change triggers. Things I have used include: when I see a green plant, think about prana. When I see a blue shirt, think about prana…

A mistake people make is thinking about prana during your meditation. Just think about prana at the beginning, of the mediation, when guided to. For the rest of the meditation, think only about the touch. Or the sensation of the touch when you move your hand away.

Prana can also be gathered by imagining prana in your water, when you pour it into a glass. And when you imagine prana while drinking that water, you can attract great amounts. There is a Higher Balance mediation called The Water of Life that has that uses this technique. This technique can really boost your accumulation and awareness of prana.

Another technique is to swim with non-thought in a lake, somewhere in nature, with very pure water. If you stay in the water for around 45 minutes, you can really notice it.

And the most important way to have more prana is to use less prana. I will answer how to do this in the future.

You say when we have babbler, the flow of prana ceases. So should I think about prana again and start to practice non-thought whenever there is a babbler?

No, you don’t have to think about prana again during mediation. You just have to go back to non-thought and focus on the touch. Because you already set an intention at the beginning of the mediation. Your intention was to collect prana. That is what is happening when Eric guides you to visualize the prana in the room…

When you set the intention, it’s like filling a siphon. Once you start the flow by setting the intention, the prana will continue to flow to you, as long as you have non-thought. If you fall out of non-thought, the siphon is pinched, but not emptied. Just go back to non-thought to un-pinch the siphon and restart the collection of prana.

Yes, if you were doing something else, like going for a walk and collecting prana. Because walking does not set an intention to collect prana. Walking has another intention, to get somewhere, exercise, etc.

Is the amount of prana attracted during sleep is less compared to the amount we get in meditation? If so why?

Meditation attracts more prana because you have an intention of collecting prana during the mediation. Intention (or thought) is tool that affects prana or energy. During sleep you don’t have the focus to maintain an intention.
