Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Why Bother With Lucid Dreaming?

By Jamie Barry

Lucid dreaming is also often referred to as conscious dreaming, in that one can often exercise a certain degree of control over the dream, unlike with regular dreaming. Basically, lucid dreaming is all about the art of dreaming while at the same time being aware of the fact that it's a dream, even while you're a busy dreaming.

Being in a position where you have full control over the direction of your dreams is something which nobody can truly imagine until they actually experience it. In fact, it is such an incredible feeling that one could almost say it comes straight out of a science fiction novel. All of a sudden it feels as though you no longer have any limits in your life.

Is it really as easy as some people say? Can you experience lucid dreaming and as such, breathe life into something which for years seemed far from reality?

The fact of the matter is; lucid dreaming is far from being a difficult a task. If you are determined to master this powerful skill, there are numerous tried and tested ways to achieving your goal.

The first thing you need to do is to become absolutely certain as to why you want to master the art of lucid dreaming. Do you imagine yourself having your own personal playground built from lucid dreams, or do you have another reason for wanting to learn and develop this skill? Your reason is not of particular importance, providing it is clear in your mind.

The next step regarding the process of developing your skill is that you will need to master a process which is known as "dream recall". This will then allow you to recall details of the dreams you have. You need to bear in mind that unless you are capable of remembering a dream, you won't be able to master the art of lucid dreaming.

Irrespective of what others may have told you, this process can be painfully slow. It can however be achieved a lot quicker if you maintain a "dream recall register". Maintaining such a register will allow you to record as many details as possible with regards to your last dream. Providing you continue doing this you will with time come to realize that you are able to remember everything about a dream.

For many people, hypnosis has proved to be an invaluable tool with regards to reducing the time required in order to prepare your subconscious mind. In many cases it requires no more than one or two such sessions in order to reach a point where you are able to remember all your dreams on a consistent basis. Once you've acquired this ability then you can be rest assured your mind has been suitably conditioned for lucid dreaming.

A phenomenon which you can expect to experience when in a lucid dream is to suddenly find yourself wide awake. However, considering that by now you will have gathered enough experience and developed enough skill, you will simply be able to go back to sleep and continue the dream where you left off. Of course, you'll once again have the power to direct the direction of that dream as you see fit.

And other top favorite between lucid dreamers, is going back to sleep for an hour or two once you wake up in the morning. This method is favored due to the dreams being incredibly close to lucid dreams. In fact, it is not uncommon to wake up after having one of them wondering if you were in fact dreaming or not. Waking up an hour to or two before your usual time can be taken care of simply by setting your alarm clock to go off at the desired time.

Another thing to bear in mind is; it can be immensely beneficial to keep track of your sleeping patterns, so as to determine what is the best time for you to have a lucid dream.

Interestingly enough, lucid dreams also have the ability to help people overcome sleeping disorders such as insomnia. If you have difficulty falling asleep, you simply need to convince yourself that by falling asleep you'll be able to enjoy a lucid dream. In the vast majority of cases, your mind will take care of all the finer details.

Fortunately for those wanting to learn the art of lucid dreaming, the process has become a lot easier than it was in the not too distant past, thanks mainly to advances in sound technologies.

Nowadays, more and more to people are discovering that the easiest and most reliable way of being able to have a lucid dream, his by listening to binaural beats audios.

Essentially, the reason why these audios are effective, is because they involve playing relaxing sounds to the listener using different frequencies for each ear. This results in a phenomenal amount of realization in addition to bringing the brain waves into the correct frequency necessary for lucid dreaming.

Prior to binaural beats becoming available, people had no option but to rely on hypnosis techniques but of course, learning such techniques can take many years and as a result many people simply never had the time.

When one listens to the sound waves of binaural beats, especially when combined with hypnosis, it is possible to experience lucid dreaming in a relatively short space of time.

Manifest A New Life Using The Cosmic Ordering Service

By Gina Daad

Thanks to a recent spike in publicity, the last few years have seen an ever growing number of people showing an interest in the cosmic ordering service. Additionally, many are now realizing the potential benefits.

With many celebrity endorsements, now it seems everyone wants a piece of the action. But does it only work for celebrities? What chance does the average person have of successfully using the cosmic ordering service?

In fact theoretically it works for everyone, but people who have not been successful do not realize that they are subconsciously sabotaging their cosmic order. You see whatever you think will happen really does happen!

The right to use the cosmic ordering service belongs to one and all, allowing everybody to get what they desire. Of course some people will point out that they have never had a desire to be ill or in financial difficulty and admittedly, they are right.

The problem is not the cosmic ordering service, but rather the way you channel your desires. Avoid saying things such as; I really don't want to get ill. This is a negative manner in which to seek your desires.

You should aim to seek desires from a more positive aspect so, instead of what you don't want, rather desire what you do want. For example, you could say, I'm so healthy it's of little wonder that I never get ill.

One of the most fundamental mistakes people make at this stage, is to portray or project themselves as they currently are, rather than as they could be. By falling into this trap, you are simply reinforcing your current standing rather than a successful future standing.

As we embark on our journey through life, our beliefs are often influenced by other people as well as different experiences. When we first started out in this life, we believed in ourselves and that all things were possible and now, we need to believe like that once more.

In a perfect world, a child would grow up with support and knowledge that they deserve all that they want. Instead, children are taught that it's wrong to want a lot. It's bad to receive whatever you want unless you work hard and long hours, and then you also have to have a special reason that you deserve the reward.

Always saying that we should count our blessings is wrong. Why should we settle for practically nothing? After all, there's more than enough for everyone. In fact, there's so much, it could stretch to the edge of infinity.

If you look around yourself, be happy for those who have more than you because really, it further strengthens the argument that there is enough wealth for all. Don't begrudge others, because in so doing, you'll only be reinforcing your own negative thoughts, once again directing focus to the negative rather than the positive.

Quantum physics helped to prove some of the principals of cosmic ordering. Your brain emits powerful energy waves that influence the movement of the tiniest particle known to man, the quark. If you send out positive energy, you get positive results in return.

Changing the way we think and the way in which we have been schooled to believe, is by no means easy but it can be done. Admittedly, in order to tackle this immense task, you'll need all the tools you can find.

These tools, like self-hypnosis, binaural frequency waves and subliminal suggestion and affirmations, shoot past the logical portion of the mind into the belief portion, the subconscious. The help to clear away the old beliefs that stop you from using the cosmic ordering system to get everything that you want.

You can control your future but you need to believe it beyond all doubt. With the help of some of these tools, you'll be able to clear away those blockages and order anything you desire, from the cosmic ordering service.
