It'd be best to start zoning out when your visions are fairly stable, I can try to ask him what exactly does he do in these visions, but I beleive he told me he just walks around, it's exactly what you do pretty much and what he described as what to do in each sense that would be effective. he described himself walking forests and such, if you want to know more you cna always contact him directly through msn or E-mail, or even I can ask answers to your questions I'm not sure about.
These are all the qoutes I have on this computer though I got a whole chat log of qoutes on another comp, but alot of them are in there.
okay, I personally WILD by willing myself into a meditative state and imagining a scene, then integrating my senses into it
so I'd feel something, smell something, taste something, hear something, and see it of course
for a newbie, basically the same thing, but draw it out for a long time... do each sense for like five minutes, and put a good half an hour or an hour into the meditative trance
it's best to just be a passive observer until things stabilize
be aware of the fact you're dreaming but don't act on it, just watch for a while
to WILD instantly like I do, I have to use all the senses
if you wanna learn to be more visual, start with imagining a movie of a book you're reading, or any kind of story just make it into pictures in your imagination as you read
you don't get involved in it right away, you just kind of give your mind the set up, then let it drift but you have to stay consciously involved just not trying to FORCE it it takes a while to get the balance
the best possible course of action is to be actively passive
just takes practice
let things happen, but be thinking observingly
no order necessary
but I like to do visuals and sound first
then feeling, then taste, then smell
just because they strike me as being most dominant in that order
and easier to simulate since we think about them more
takes more focus on the later ones, but by then it's easier since you've got the others backing you up
for vision it's obvious, imagine the dream scene... same for hearing, listen to your voice in the dream... listen to birds chirp or wind moving
and yes, you can do them all at once if you're good enough with meditation, but I'm trying to make it practical for someone new to the method
now, for feeling, I like to feel a gritty or wet surface... something that would stand out
walking through damp grass
running your hands along a bumpy wall
taste... I often taste what I'd normally taste in my mouth... dry saliva (bad dry mouth during the day)...
but you can also try eating something
I tried eating bark once, that was gross
I'd recommend a pie or something that suits the scene
for smell, smell out the environment from the scene... in a forest? smell pine...
confidence and paying close attention to your experiences to determine your own personal reality
meditating's about focus
yep, well, the relaxation's kind of necessary for the focus
so relaxation is a mean not a result really
lol, never focus on everything
you either focus on one thing or nothing
focusing on everything is a completely different form
focusing on one thing is like a form of self-hypnosis... it's to focus yourself on something
to focus on nothing is to clear your thoughts and just focus into your inner space, divoid of physical stimula or mental stimula... mostly used for spiritual things, but very good for self-control as well
passively set the movement into motion
WILDing is kinda a midground between one thing and nothing
you have to unfocus on one thing
like I said, you have to set it into motion, but just let it go from there
make your subconscious work on it
passively observe your thoughts as if they weren't your own
but try to make any thoughts unrelated to WILDing float away from you
without ever focusing on it
just observe it
tough to explain, but yeah
cause you're going into your inner space like with no focus meditation, but you're trying to make yourself get dream stimula rather than no stimula
