The Malleable Light

Didn’t have any last night, but the night before I did. It’s a bit blurry now, but I remember the basics.

I realized I was in the dream state by noticing my old house. That seems to happen a lot. We lived in that house from the time I was 15 or so until I graduated college, so it’s the main old house in my head.

Once I recognized that I was dreaming, the whole room started to go blurry. I sat down and repeated “clarity now, focus now” until it cleared up. First, I tried to fly. I flew up and banged my head on the ceiling. No problem, I’ll just fly through the wall, right? Wrong. I tried to fly through the wall, and ran into it. Apparently, sometimes even in lucid dreams, you just have to use the front door.

I went out the front door and wandered around. The scenery wasn’t anything like that around my old house. This was very obviously a dream, and not projecting. I wandered through woods until I got to crocodiles in a sewer. Last time I checked, Chattanooga doesn’t have crocodiles in the sewers, so I’m pretty sure they’re not really there. I then willed myself to fly up.

That’s where my memory stops. I think maybe the baby woke me again after that and it ended.

What I’ve taken away from this is the following:

1. My old house is one of my signs that I’m dreaming.
2. You can’t always fly through the walls even in a dream.
3. It isn’t always a bad thing when your 18 month old wakes you every hour.

Our 18 month old has been having sleep issues, so I’ve been awake every hour or so the last couple of nights. It’s a bit annoying because I’m still tired in the morning, but it does give me a chance to try to project. Mostly, I’ve had no success. I’m more of a project out of a lucid dream person, rather than consciously projecting.

Last night, this morning, I think around six or so, I managed to project and push myself through the window to the outside. I really wasn’t able to control much of anything I experienced, so it’s possible it was a clear dream. Whatever it was, I attempted to picture places to go, but couldn’t figure out how to get there.

I floated by a lot of different people, didn’t know any of them. I was also able to finally name a place, push myself through a book and end up there. I flew over the ocean, felt at peace, but then got pulled back.

I don’t consider it a failure. I was able to control it slightly, and just the fact that I managed to project or lucid dream either one, after several nights of failing to do anything, gives me hope that I can get this thing figured out eventually.

Yesterday I woke up early to get ready for work. I was slightly rushed because my friend (co-worker) was waiting at the auto mechanic garage for me to pick him up. In my haste I left the Performer 2400 chi generator on the lucid dreaming frequency of 0.5 HZ all day with the “Gateway Affirmation” running on a trend. This may or may not have been responsible for my discovery of the “The Vehram Energy System”.

Later in the day after work I was out on the Astral Pulse forum and noticed a new post about the “The Vehram Energy System”. When I first looked at the title I almost dismissed it as some crazy experience or place on the astral planes with a strange name. My curiosity got the best of me so I opened the post and started reading and I quickly realized that the author had stumbled onto something unique. He was describing a book about an energy system that he was pulling energy from to create his second body and astral project. I didn’t understand much of what he was describing but it piqued an interest so bought the book and began reading.

I finished reading the book at approximately 8:30 PM and then went to bed around 9:30 PM. I fell asleep at 10:30 PM while running the mantra “I will wake up at 3:00 AM” through my until I fell asleep.

Sure enough I woke at 1:15 AM which is my normal 3:15 AM because normally go to sleep around 12 AM. I began the breathing technique outlined in the book and created the sensation of getting heavy as described. I continued this for about a minute and then I clearly remember passing into the hypnagogic state. My body got heavy and I felt my body lose the ability to move and I was left in a totally paralyzed state

While laying in blackness I did exactly what the book suggests. I willed energy from the Vehram array and directed that energy into my body and within less then a second very strong vibrations consumed me.

I was not able to exit at first so I relaxed and then rolled out to the left side and found myself standing next to my bed. Everything was all distorted at first so I asked for total awareness and clarity and almost instantly I was seeing the room and the house EXACTLY how it is in waking life.

I made a conscious effort to stay as close to the physical world as possible this time and then I walked down stairs, through the closed front door and outside. I continued walking until I was out in the street in front of my house. I turned and looked northeast towards downtown Austin which is 6 miles away and hidden behind trees. I commanded my vision to zoom in on the skyline and instantly I could see the buildings with crystal clarity. I was completely amazed by this new ability and was very excited. I looked down at the street and I could see every detail of the pavement.

Next I turned and faced southwest because I remembered once again that I told my friend that I would visit him next time I was out of body for validation purposes. I started imagining his face and for some reason I felt a rushing and could not stay focused. I woke up and it was 1:20 AM. I went down stairs and wrote up a skeleton version of this and then went back to bed to try again.

This new found system seems to work very well and I really don’t know what to think about it yet. I would like to do some validations and then report back my findings. I have added a link to the vehram.com site on the left and I recommend spending the 10 dollars for it. It’s worth it.

This will be a short post inspired by a three hour philisophical discussion, in which a man of strong religious beliefs who I have great respect for tried to sway me into his belief system. We discussed “The Ultimate Truth”, and how religions or the lack of religion fit into the search for it. I will not disclose which religion or who I discussed this with, as it is not relevant to this blog entry.

When I was younger, one of my favorite movies was “Hell in the Pacific”, which tells the story of two men, one American and one Japanese, marooned on a small uninhabited island in the Pacific. They survive by accepting their differences and working together, despite the fact that their two countries are at war. At the end of the movie, after calling a truce, a magazine brings their conversation back to religion and war and therefore ending the truce and they begin fighting again. Minutes later a bomb lands on them and blows them to pieces. Last night’s discussion reminded me of this movie.

Our main disagreement stemmed from a hypothetical person who chooses a predefined organized religious path versus one who simply chooses his own path and how this choice will ultimately lead to “The Ultimate Truth”. The one thing that we both agreed on, is that neither of our beliefs or paths made sense to the other.

My current observation is that there may or may not be an “Ultimate Truth”; however, my logical but currently limited human brain tells me that there most likely is. What doesn’t make sense about all of this is when a person expects his religion to make sense to others and tries to force it on them. Based on the information I have collected, no one knows what the “Ultimate Truth” is or even if it exists. There are various religions of various popularity, spread across virtually every culture, all attempting to discover “The Ultimate Truth.”

My personal belief is that Earth and humans are a VERY small part of the overall picture, and confining oneself to one physical world, or even worse, to one religion, will limit one who chooses to do so. Be happy if you have found your path, even if it is a limiting path. It’s fine to share your discoveries with others, but realize that not everyone will be or will want to be on that same path and all paths may “Ultimately” lead to the same truth in one form or another.

It seems that the truth gets lost in interpretation, or perhaps the truth IS the interpretations which exist in religious silos. It’s possible that the “Ultimate Truth” lies in the absence of any interpretation. I think that the key here is to respect others for what they believe even if it doesn’t make sense to you, because it’s very likely that what you believe doesn’t make sense to them either, and that’s ok.
