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?

How Anyone Can Remote View

By Stephen Branch

Remote viewing occurs when something is seen while in a remote and distant location, and involves many faceted subjects. Actual viewing, on the other hand, takes place when something is viewed when you are actually at the location and see it as it is happening.

There is a bit of controversy surrounding remote viewing since nobody really knows or understand exactly how or why it is accomplished. The face remains though that a number of remote viewing studies have been conducted that have a record or producing amazing results.

Remote view works so well, that throughout history, governments across the globe have used the technique for spying purposes or to accomplish their specific security objectives. History also shows us that these same governments halted these programs when they became concerned that remote viewing could somehow be leveraged and used against them. Once the research documents became declassified the notion of being able to remote view gained popularity with the public.

How Can One Remote View?

By using your extra sensory perception powers and your potential senses, remote viewing can be practiced. In a sense it is very similar to practicing astral projection because you dont have to be in the exact location of what is being viewed, yet you can view the scene.

Anytime you have the notion to take a remote view you are able to view anything in any location. You can see areas on the earth, on planets or outer space. You may choose to go back in time, forward in time or stay in the present.

Everybody is capable of accomplishing remote viewing, but some people seem to have an extraordinary talent or gift for doing it. The rest of the people might have to make a special effort in order to learn the technique of focusing that is required to be able to train the conscious mind to a achieve the goal.

When you are interested in experiencing your reality in a new alternative perspective, you find that learning to remote view is very beneficial to you. You can learn how to enhance your natural ability of operating at a very high level of vibrations with your thoughts when you learn and practice the art of taking a remote view.

Steps You Can Take To Increase Your Ability to Remote View

There are various means of remote viewing methods and techniques that can help you to learn how to remote view. In order to succeed in the ability you must learn how to quite your mind and focus your concentration intently on any area, individual or object that you cannot actually and physically view.

In order to fully develop and enhance the skills of extrasensory perception, having an open mind is critical. Explore and expand on the methods of meditation and visualization what work well for you. You can practice these techniques in your home or with the assistance of an expert in this area.

One of the best things that can be done when you begin to practice and learn the art of remote viewing is to keep a journal. By recording your adventures you will be able to easily track your progress as you strive to reach your goal of being able to go anywhere that you desire and see everything you want to.

Make a point of asking yourself to find out the answer to a particular question before going to sleep and then record in your journal the message you receive. Do your practices at a time when you will not be disturbed for the best results.

Another popular exercise to learn how to remote view is to hold a photograph or drawing in your hands face down where you cannot see the scene. Then you should ask yourself to view or see the scene or picture. With practice, you will be able to increase your innate talents and skills.

Remember to be patient with yourself and your remote viewing adventures. If you keep a journal of your experiences, you will learn what works best for you as well as identifying your strengths and weaknesses. Working with them can aid you in increasing numerous natural and instinctive talents and skills.

There is a wide assortment of resources available to you that can aid you in your progression and success of learning how to practice the art of remote view. It is one of the finer arts of the mind, body and soul similar to learning to develop other types of sensory skills.

How Can You Remember Your Past Lives?

By Georgia Kirsten

In the world today, there are many more individuals who believe in reincarnation, than there are individuals who do not. For many it may be part of their religious beliefs, such as for Buddhists and Hindus, while for many others, it just makes sense to them or perhaps some may be simply curious. Whether they are searching for answers about that particular something that stands out in their minds that follows they all their lives or they are merely curious to find out, many individuals do their best to find out more concerning their past lives. There are various ways to discover the explanations, when you find yourself curious about past lives.

Journaling

Journaling is one of the easiest ways to begin your exploration of past lives. Write down everything you experience, even if it seems to be really trivial. Include your emotional reactions to events. Your emotions may be your strongest clues to what may be related to a past life. By journaling, you are creating a written record that you can refer to later when you try to piece together clues.

You can look for such clues in your present daily life. You can make lists of things that you may like and dislike, which may include anything from your childhood, foods, fashions, architecture, the climates, various cultures and historical periods. You may also consider including other things that come to mind, such as how you feel and what you think about your natural talents and gifts, fears or phobias, characteristics of your personality, birthmarks and scars as well as animals, occupations and those times you may experience dj vu.

Write about your dreams. Sometimes past lives come through very clearly when we dream. At other times we get little hints. Past and present and combine in a dream and give us symbols that may have meaning for you in both the past and the present. Before you fall asleep, give yourself the suggestion that you want to learn about your past lives. Write down anything and everything you can remember.

Past Life Regression Therapy

Professional past life regression therapists can be most helpful, since they are able to guide you through a regression and then aid you with the interpretation of the information you receive. You will find there are a few places for training and certifying these types of therapist, for instance the International Association of Past Life Therapists and the International Association for Regression and Research and Therapies both train and certify professional therapists. You may be able to find such a therapist in your area.

Meditation

There are many methods of meditation that can help you explore your past lives. While meditating on your own is a private way to find out about your past, some people may have trouble trusting the information that comes in, but you should try and trust your feelings.

While meditating may feel like a daydream, and images are flowing in and out, there may be some valuable information coming through. Write it all down and ponder it later. Likewise, if you tell yourself that you won't be able to do it or you won't get anything, you won't. Your mind is very suggestible, and it will retrieve what you tell it to.

Some people meditate better using a visual stimulus, like a candle flame, while others find it easier to meditate with sound. This can be a recorded guided meditation session you get from a therapist or a certain piece of music or just sounds, like the "om" sound or Tibetan bells.

There have also been great advances recently in audio technology with a process called binaural beats. Here sound waves of slightly different frequencies are played in each ear which has the result of instantly relaxing you to a state only normally achieved by Zen monks who have practiced meditation for years!

However, no matter which technique you may find useful for meditation purposes, you should always be in an area that offers no disturbances and that is peaceful.

Before meditation, you should be in a receptive and positive state of mind and either lie down or sit in a comfortable position. Quiet your mind, while focusing on the relaxation of your muscles. If you experience any unwanted thoughts, simply acknowledge then and then let them flow away. This does take a bit of practice. You should not expect anything but to become relaxed, while focusing on your heart. If you have questions, simply ask them and then let them go. Rest assured that more than likely, the answers will come when you least expect them.

No matter you beliefs in reincarnation, it is essential to know that you will receive images that will be helpful to you for resolving some matter in your life. You may not always receive images that are from a precious life, however, many individuals do receive enough information to begin researching and verifying events, places and even names.

Some individuals find that the people they love in this life were there with them in a previous life, although their relationship may vary. For instance a mother may have been a sister or even a wife in a previous lifetime.

No matter the initial belief of some individuals, concerning past lives or reincarnation, many individuals who do try regression may find that the information they receive can be extremely interesting and helpful.

Why is Past Life Regression So Beneficial?

By James A Simmeon

There is no denying the fact that the belief in past life, or reincarnation, is prevalent across the board in almost every religion, from Christianity to Hinduism to Buddhism to Kabalah. And the interest of humans in knowing as much as possible about their past lives is also quite widespread. But how many of us are interested in knowing about our past lives in order to make a positive change in our present lives?

What lures most people to explore their past lives is the intriguing nature of it. Somewhat like living a real life science fiction movie, remembering our past lives is a little off the beaten path to say the least. The thing to consider is that Past Life Regression can benefit us greatly in our present life.

Research has shown that Past Life Regression yields good results in the treatment of emotional problems. There is no doubt that you can make a positive change in your life by remembering your past life and the bad experiences you had in that time period..

Normally you would go to a professional on Past Life Regression for a hypnosis session, but you can do this through self-hypnosis also. You can also find more tools online to help if you wish to do this.

Try simple affirmations to help you. You need your subconscious mind to accept that it is okay to remember your past lives as it is more normal for you to 'block out' these memories.

It is necessary to accept certain things before you attempt to use Past Life Regression to explore your past lives.

Past life is a part of our present life. The memory of events from previous lives is hidden somewhere in the unconscious that just needs some external help to bring it to life.

Mere knowledge of past life experiences add up to nothing. The knowledge gained thus, must be put to practical use in the present life for better results.

The past life experiences can be positively used in order to bring about a change in the present life. The mistakes made in the previous lives can be learnt and avoided in the present life.

You will be able to benefit from Past Life Regression whether you believe in reincarnation or not. You may think you are imagining the memories of your past live, either way you will learn from it. You can change your behavior and avoid mistakes by seeing the mistakes of the past.

There are a couple of good reasons for using Past Life Regression whether you believe in it or not. The following is the two main reasons to do this according to experts:

a) If you benefit from the lessons of such events by applying them to the present life, then these were indeed, the past life experiences.

b) If you think you have imagined everything it can still be of help to you as it can clear your head of things that are stopping you from being successful.

What benefits should you expect from Past Life Regression?

1) It helps our present life by making us deal with the traumatic events of the past.

2) You will be able to think and make decisions more clearly.

3) If you know what you have done in the past to hurt someone and suffered the consequences you will change this behavior. Remembering the past life where you have done this will make you take a second look at your present behavior.

4) You have potential that you do not realize you have. Exploring your past live will make you see a talent or skill that may be buried deep in your subconscious. Discovering this could change your outlook on life forever.

5) Understanding the past life experiences answers a lot of burning questions about one's attributes, personality, characteristics, etc. in the present life.

Past Life Regression is certainly a win-win proposition for believers and disbelievers. If you want to make a positive change in your present life, it is definitely worth trying!

Cosmic Ordering And Its Effect On Your Life

By Samantha Hill

More and more people are looking for ways to enjoy their lives and fulfill their desires these days. They are trying to accomplish their goals and also satisfy their materialistic and other aspirations. In today's world there are more and more ways of getting the kind of life you want but nothing is as good as cosmic ordering.

Cosmic ordering is nothing but a different form of a spiritual practice which enables you to get all your wishes and desires fulfilled by the universe. All you need to do is to ask or just order and you will get it. Though this may be some what a spiritual process but it doesn't mean you need to be a saint to get the results. Yes, if you are one, then it will only help but this process works for normal people as well.

In simple terms cosmic ordering means manifesting your goals and dreams through the spiritual way. You can ask for anything or order anything that you desire from the universe from changing your life to getting the partner of your dreams.

Dr. Deepak Chopra and Dr. Wayne Dyer believe that to manifest your order with the universe, you need to be in something known as the 'field of intent'. This is nothing but an invisible energy field which aids and catalyses the connection between the spirit and the universe and helps in manifesting our desires.

There is a high probability that you have done cosmic ordering before without realizing what it really was. If you jog your memory, then there must have been a time when you really wanted something badly and you got it. Most people term it as a coincidence and don't realize the true power they have. It's never a coincidence, it was just cosmic ordering.

Power of intention is vital to cosmic ordering since intention is nothing but an amalgamation of our innermost faith and desires. We need to have complete conviction that we deserve what we want and really want it. This is the only way to make cosmic ordering work.

People may express their desire for a new car or a new pay raise. However nothing works till you believe that you are not worthy or you didn't work hard for getting them. You need to actually be dead sure and have complete conviction that you deserve it and you will get it.

Its one of the most straightforward and easy processes in the world and it can help you to completely change your life. The only problem here is that if you believe and focus on the bad or the negative instead of positive, then cosmic ordering may manifest the negative as well.

Hence, people who are always scared of losing their job may even see their fear coming true one day. Therefore just think of the good things that you want. Don't think about the bad ones.

Living in negative and pessimistic mindset and circumstances for years together has led many people to believe that they don't deserve to be happy. Hence, for these kind of people manifesting their desires is a Herculean task; almost unattainable.

Your subconscious mind can also become your biggest enemy and hindrance in manifesting the things that you desire because the beliefs fed into it for years may not allow it to believe in the cosmic ordering service.

To really be successful in ordering what you need from the cosmos, you need to prepare your subconscious mind to believe that you are worthy of being happy and getting what you want. It's not a tough thing to change the beliefs and innermost thoughts of your subconscious. There are various tools like meditation, affirmations and hypnosis which can change that

Lot of people world over have used cosmic ordering to manifest the life they want. Its time for you to also use this tool and get the life you really want. Now is the time to use cosmic ordering to have a great and prosperous life.

Can Anyone Try Lucid Dreaming?

By Trevor Albitt

Sometimes known as conscious dreaming, lucid dreaming is the art of keeping self aware and knowing that one is dreaming while in a dream. This includes being conscious that the events unfolding around you are only part of the dream and being able to exercise control over the dream. All of this is possible for the person who has learned how to use lucid dreaming.

Having control over your dreams is an incredible experience. Everything which you thought you couldn't keep from holding you back from your goals just falls before you and you have new found mental clarity, even when awake.

But is it as simple as it looks like? Can everyone experience lucid dreaming and bring to life what otherwise seems difficult or impossible in this reality?

Luckily, it's really not that hard to begin lucid dreaming, as long as you are determined to learn it. There are proven ways to help you access this ability and use your untapped mental power.

Foremost, you must be absolutely clear about your objective in trying to master the art of lucid dreaming. Do you just want to have your own private playground in the form of lucid dreams, or there is some specific reason for developing this skill? Whatever may be the reason, it should be crystal clear in your mind.

The next step is to learn the techniques of reaching the mental state where lucid dreaming is possible. You'll have to begin learning dream recall, which is simply remembering your dreams. To begin lucid dreaming, you need to first be able to recall every detail of the dreams that you have.

The process is slow, but it can be achieved by maintaining a Dream Recall Register in which you enter as many details as you can remember about your dreams daily. Slowly but surely, you'll realize that you can remember even the most vivid details of your dreams. Periodic reality checks during the course of dreaming will train your mind to be aware in dreams.

Many people have found that hypnosis can drastically reduce the time needed to prepare your subconscious mind to experience lucid dreaming. Often just one of two hypnosis sessions will allow you to consistently remember all of your dreams. Once this occurs your mind is then conditioned for lucid dreaming.

While in a lucid dream, it may happen that suddenly, you are wide-awake. However, with the power that you have attained so far, you'll be easily able to recollect all the important details of the dream. Now, just try to relax and sleep again, while continuing the dream with the desired directions. When you wake up, you'll realize the real power of conscious dreaming you just experienced the night before.

Another good way of inducing lucid dreams is to wake a few hours earlier than usual, then go back to sleep. The dreams you will have in these few hours are the easiest to make into lucid dreams. You may even find yourself unsure whether you have been sleeping or just thinking to yourself as you lay in bed. Just set your alarm for a few hours early, wake and reset the alarm and then go back to sleep and you will be more likely to have lucid dreams.

In this regard, it's extremely useful to keep track of your sleeping patterns so as to discover the best time to have lucid dreams.

Lucid dreaming can help people with insomnia and other sleep disorders. If you have trouble sleeping, just tell yourself "Sleeping equals lucid dreaming" and your subconscious mind will help you become free of the thoughts keeping you awake.

Lucid dreaming used to be something which took a very long time to learn. Recent technological advances, particularly in the field of audio technology have made lucid dreaming something which anyone can easily accomplish.

One of the quickest and most reliable methods of inducing lucid dreaming is to listen to binaural beats audio.

Binaural audio involves listening to two slightly different frequencies in each ear. This synchronizes brain waves to the state where lucid dreaming is most likely to occur and at the same time causes deep relaxation.

Before binaural audio technology, meditation was the method of choice for those wanting to learn lucid dreaming, and this was a process which could sometimes take years to master. Many simply gave up, not having the determination to pursue the practice.

Particularly in conjunction with hypnotherapy, binaural sound waves can get your mind ready for lucid dreaming, sometimes as early as your first attempt!

The Magic Of Telepathy

By E Lucas Cox

The basic definition of telepathy is feeling anothers reactions or thoughts without using what is categorical called the five senses. Telepathy is often referred to as the sixth sense. This allows us to sense things without being face to face with someone.

Telepathic communication is therefore communication on another level entirely. Indeed, many animal trainers and scientists researching the ways animal communicate have become convinced beyond the shadow of a doubt that animals are using telepathic communications in addition to other means of reaching each other, and sometimes their telepathic communications extend over vast distances.

Some anthropologists are also fully convinced that there are some primitive tribes who today can still use the power of telepathy to communicate with one another.

There are many common cases of telepathy, though it is still considered by some to just be witch craft or that telepathy does not exist at all. While the reality is that one can learn this ability as one learns other aspects of human life such as writing and talking to one another in a way that is comprehensible. If we have problems with these tasks, we do not say they do not exist because we can not learn them, we just adapt our learning to circumvent the block or problem that causes the learning disability.

It is sad to say that we have lost much of our telepathic ability when once it was as pronounced in some as being musical can bring out a response from another.

Some people consider this another sense altogether. That is considered to be the sixth sense to many. It also comes in many other names depending on the era and region. It is now basically considered an instinct.

Intuition is a form of telepathy. You know that feeling that someone is watching your or the hair on your arms starts to tingle? That is telepathy in its purest form. Most of the time when you have these feelings, you are correct in your assessment. How many times have your children woken you up by just looking at you while you sleep, intuitively, even in your sleeping state you sense that someone is there and wake up.

It is difficult to pinpoint why most of humanity would have lost touch with their telepathic powers and stopped believing in them. One problem with learning telepathy today definitely has to do with ascendant religions. Religions today, especially Christianity and Islam, tend to distrust telepathy as being some kind of Satanic tool or proof of demon possession.

These religions among us have come to have such power over society that a great many people have been taught to put no faith in telepathy, but only in 'the Messiah' or 'the Savior' or 'the Prophet' rather than in their own natural abilities.

But this does beg the question, why would religions come to be so distrustful of telepathy in the first place? The answer is likely to lie in the power hunger of so many religious 'leaders' and authorities who don't want their own alleged divine powers challenged by telepaths. Of course, not every religious leader is like this, but too many are and have been throughout history.

With our new scientific age, scholars scoff at the thought of telepathy. It can not be explained in a way that makes sense so it does not exist. Because we do not use our other five senses to access telepathy, the theory is that it can not be a true sense as we know it. The fact there is a plethora of data to prove that telepathy does exist does not matter to those who choose to close their eyes to the facts.

It is hard to explain why there is no scientific belief in telepathy. Other senses can be felt by every human being, yet telepathy is only well known to just a small portion of the world. But even with the proofs in place, some will just refuse to believe or even contemplate the existence of telepathy. Some other things that require a trust in a sense to believe in are widely accepted, such as animal instincts.

Whether scientists choose to call it instinct or just refuse to believe because they do not experience it themselves is mute, the point is it just because you do not feel it does no mean it does not exist.

As to why humanity began losing touch with telepathy at all, perhaps it's as simple as the Tower of Babylon story--perhaps the languages that were confused by God or the gods were not just those of speech but also the language of telepathy.

Harnessing the Power of the Subconscious Mind

By Jean D Kerr

Your subconscious mind is easily the most powerful force on the planet and it shouldn't be underestimated. Everything you do or say or think begins in your mind. When you can tap the power of the subconscious, that power can be manifested to your conscious mind.

Have you ever done anything throughout your day on complete auto-pilot? Simple tasks that you just get done without thinking about why you're doing them are those controlled by your subconscious need to do them.

Your sub-conscious mind acts and reacts according to the stimulus it receives, whether you recognize it or not. This can mean that negative or upsetting images on the TV can have an effect on your sub-conscious thoughts in the same way as those negative comments you tell yourself when you feel doubt have the same effect.

Through the proper harnessing of the power of the subconscious mind, an individual can truly live out his or her true potential. Far too often we are told about the 'evils and dangers' that lurk in the subconscious. While there is certain value in understanding the dark side of human psychology, only looking at the negative comes with many unfortunate consequences.

That is why it is helpful to also look at the positive aspects of the human mind and how we can approach the subconscious as a means of self-improvement. Now, some may read this and think it refers to an overly complex process that is difficult to attain. In reality, it is the opposite that is true. The guiding of the subconscious mind is no where as difficult as some assume. Through a series of simple processes, it is possible to use the power of the subconscious mind so that it helps one harness unlimited potential. So, let us take a brief look at some of the ways this is achieved.

The simplest as best known way of communicating with the subconscious mind is by using affirmations. This is basically a constant repetition of positive words.

This is why it becomes important to train your mind to always look for the positive aspects of everything you do. By learning to utilize the power of affirmations to help reinforce your own subconscious power, you're able to unlock large amounts of potential you never knew you had.

One way this can be achieved is through constantly reminding oneself about how many benefits can be derived from performing the task. You could also look in the mirror and affirm that you are the absolute best person for the job. In fact, you are so good at the job the end result will be a complete work of art!

You're also able to change your habits through use of affirmations. You might want to stop smoking or learn to stop overeating or even feel more motivated about exercising more regularly. These affirmations confirm the things you want to your subconscious, which then creates the impulses that remind your conscious mind of the things you should be doing.

Hypnosis is another way to tap directly into the subconscious mind. You can do this using a qualified hypnotherapist or you can use self-hypnosis by listening to specific audio recordings. This can help you to change habits, like stopping smoking or over-eating. You can also change your entire attitude toward certain activities or actions to become more positive if you wish.

Another way to harness the power of the subconscious mind is to use brainwave synchronization or binaural beats. This is where you listen to specific sound frequencies through headphones. The sounds are different within each ear and create a synchronization of the two sides of your brain. This induces a deep meditation state that accesses your subconscious mind.

Buddhist monks utilize the full power of their subconscious minds to display mastery over themselves and on occasion even the environment around them. Able to break items without pain or levitate their physical bodies, this is achieved after years of mastering their own subconscious powers.

The law of attraction, explained in films and books such as The Secret, works by learning to harness the power inside your own subconscious mind. It is possible to manifest the life you always dreamed of, or the perfect partner or the ideal job.

More traditional sciences, such as quantum physics, are beginning to recognize the significance of the power many ancient civilizations accessed by understanding their own subconscious minds. The ability to alter and influence your own reality comes from tapping the power within yourself.

The power of the subconscious mind is far more vast them most people realize. That is why it is important to never overlook the benefits of manipulating the subconscious. Not only can you change your behaviour; using the power of your subconscious mind is also the gateway to a truly amazing new life!
