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?

Remote Viewing - How Even A Complete Novice Can Get Started

By Vicki Porter

What is remote viewing? How do you know if you're doing it right? Remote viewing is the ability to see people, places and things with your mind's eye instead of with your five senses.

What is remote viewing? It's not synonymous with astral travel. When you experience astral travel, if your 'energy' body can leave your physical body and travel incorporeally so that you can see something 'up close and personal.' With remote viewing, how this is done is that you 'see' entirely with your mind, without ever leaving your physical location in any way.

How do you know whether or not you can learn remote viewing? Simply, because everyone can. How successful you are at it depends on whether you can relax into a trance state that is very similar to the awareness you experience when you're hypnotized.

It's long been established that we only use around 10% of our brain's capacity, but the other 90% remains dormant because it's been left untrained. If you'd been taught from childhood to speak four languages fluently, those neural pathways within your mind would accept this form of thinking as normal. The same applies with learning to count or to read words on a page or to add numbers together. These are skills your mind is taught while you're still very young and so they form part of your adult mind's power.

Now, think for a minute. Remote viewing: how would it be if you'd been taught to do this from earliest childhood, just as you've learned how to speak, read or write? It would be easy, wouldn't it? And you can still learn how to do it as an adult; you simply have to access your mind's ability to do so.

Before you take up the practice of remote viewing, how to relax is going to be a major factor in how well you can do it. If you're not a good 'relaxer,' try something before you pick up remote viewing that will teach you how to relax, like meditation. In this way, you can more easily access your subconscious mind. Self-hypnosis, too, is a great way to get to this stage of relaxation and an almost trance like state.

In addition to learning relaxation, though, you are also going to have to learn how to remain alert. It's very easy, of course, to fall asleep when you are that relaxed, but don't. Make sure you are well rested and calm, and let your mind stay alert as you fully relax physically.

Before you get into a comfortable, relaxed state and prepare for remote viewing, how will you test your results? You should plan a way to verify whether your viewing was successful or not before you get started.

One good way to do this is to choose test views that you know are verifiable, easily. For example, you could try to view a friend's home while lying at home on your bed, and take note of anything you think is out of place. For example, are there drinking glasses on a table that's normally clear? Is there a book open face down, such that you could read the title?

These are small things, to be sure, but they can tell you whether or not you're seeing what's actually happening. Once you've come back from your remote viewing session, call your friend and verify what you saw.

When you've practiced remote viewing, how to relax properly will become easier each time you do it. Soon, you'll find that you're able to relax easily and the technique itself will become much more fluid as well.

How Anyone Can Become A Remote Viewer

By Jason Faux

Have you ever wondered what your life might be like if you were a remote viewer? If this is something you haven't done before, it's hard to describe the experience and even harder to really understand what it's like.

As a remote viewer, you can see any place, any person or any object anywhere in the universe at any time in the past, present or future. You can see what's going on around the corner or view the signing of the Magna Carta. You could look into the future to see what's coming a hundred years from now. When you're the remote viewer, there is no limit to what you can uncover.

All of us can be remote viewers, though most people haven't put forward the effort needed to learn to use these natural psychic abilities. All of us have more than the five familiar physical senses, but using them requires practice.

Studies have been conducted on remote viewing, though in these cases the subjects were instructed to focus on something which they were not already familiar. In these remote viewing tests, the subjects were given only a codeword referring to a set of coordinates rather than being told exactly what they would be seeing.

These studies were conducted to test the potential for remote viewing in military and intelligence gathering operations. Many countries have conducted these studies and while the subjects in these tests may not have been familiar with what they were trying to view, you can use your own remote viewing abilities to see things which you already know well.

Interestingly enough, being a remote viewer is not something altogether out in left field or strangely odd, since it is something that we are all capable of doing. Whether we know it or not we do have what it takes inside us to enhance and develop our natural born abilities, these do include being a remote viewer.

How can you learn to become a remote viewer?

Remote viewing, like all other psychic abilities are based on your mind power. You need to condition your mind to use its untapped potential and there are several different techniques which can be used to learn remote viewing. Meditation and guided visualization can help you to achieve the necessary state of mind to use remote viewing.

In order to remote view, you'll have to allow yourself to relax completely. Practice different meditation and visualization techniques until you find some that work well for you. This will involve time and effort, so be patient and keep your eye on your goal of becoming a remote viewer.

Make sure that you won't be distracted while you're practicing to be a remote viewer. Find a place which is quiet and where you can relax without being disturbed. You need to be able to completely relax both body and mind " so you'll need some space all to yourself.

Get a notebook that you can use for recording the various details of your remote viewer experiences and tests. You may work with various types of remote viewer items while you are learning to use and develop your natural and instinctual skills and talents. Including a remote viewer journal can be very helpful to you since you can keep track of your progress and figure out just what works best for you.

You see, as humans we all naturally have theses gifts, talents or skills however; most often we have forgotten that we do have various psychic abilities. We can awaken and training these natural tools, the will work for us, as we learn how to practice bringing focus to our innermost higher selves.

You can discover your past or learn more about your own future or you simply want to find out what is going on in the next room, you can become a remote viewer to find out what it is you want to know.
