Using WILDs to "storm the gates of heaven?"

[austin]

Hello! I have been doing alot of percieved "Astral Projecting" lately which has put me in the tough postion of wanting to rationalize what i have seen, then of explaining myself without looking like a mad man. I do not want to lay down a set of ideas that in turn i expect you to believe, but only to show you if only in a vague way what conclusions i have drawn from my experiences and then try to put it into somekind of understandable context. Introduction. The wake induced lucid dream is when the subject goes from waking conciousness directly into the dream state with a mental continuum. The experience of the transition specifically is often filled with feelings of localized vibrations, violently falling, intense ascension , etc. The transition itself usually lacks visual impressions,tho the tactile sensations felt are indistinguishable from physical sensations and in most cases realer than the physical could every be. I'm not sure if science will ever answer the question of where conciousness goes during these transitions, but in the case of perception, as fare away from the waking world as one can be. The methods used for inducing wilds are vast, most involving intention on some internal action or point of focus, most being rather passive in their action. At this time i would like to talk specifically of the active dissociative actions best known as "exit techniques" which i have integrated from various sources. These actions tho so seemingly innocent in there action, produce a means of bypassing the natural lines on perception, as to produce a profound alteration in conciousness and subsequent integration into hyperspace. These "exit techniques" cause several distinct reactions to the subject, the first of which is that the internal tactile sensations are equated as actual movements in dream-space and as such convinces your mind that the dream has already started, therefor actively coaxes the mind into full integration of dream-space. The second effects is in itself vague, i am not sure what happens within myself, yet when the techniques are done it provides safe passage for conciousness into the usually unconscious universe of dream-space this aspect appears within the transition as continuous effortless awareness. Then if the subject remains calm he will be presented with and synchronized into what is perceived to be a infinite pre-existent psychic structure, that is "out there" existing by a means other than himself, which in my case frequently propagates itself in resemblance to Alabama, yet being in the lucid dream state, the world exists dissimilar in its complete vivid "otherness." There is a subtle resemblance to the physical world yet it is obviously of a more complex nature. Astral reference. I feel this is a good time to present a evolved "working hypothesis" known as astral theory, many people think that excepting these ideas are in the range of changing ones religion, yet to be understood properly it is just a psychic structure that gives a working conceptual framework for out of body experiences, not only of subjective expansion and sensation of self, but also the universe perceived to be "out there". In the case of such subjective experiences as lucid dreaming, we should look for those statements that philosophers call "true enough", what ells can we do? So let us start, the subjective vehicle for conciousness in this system is called the astral body which is that archetypal essence which is non-physical yet it is that structure that makes conciousness on all planes possible. In their model when "exit techniques" are done this energetic vehicle of conciousness dissociates from the physical shell, then subsequently manifests on the planes more similar in vibrational essence. The astral body itself being similar in dimensions to the physical, has energy centers that are equated to organs on a non-physical level. These have frequently been called "chakras" most information stems from ancient Hinduism, but has of course evolved to fit the modern mind, each having a distinct purpose yet is part of a larger structure which collectively is the source of conciousness. I don't wish to give any kind of lecture on the subject of "chakras" which has filled volumes, only their practical application and logical formation in out of body experiences. These centers can by the use of various techniques be stimulated as to produce at times a intense expansion in conciousness and vibrational state which is invaluable if these centers are seen to be the source of psychic power and simultaneously doorways within ourselves to particular mental realms. These astral planes are described as aspect or layers of the universe ranging in various degrees of vibration, each plane sufficient unto itself yet part of a infinite spectrum of other universes. Each universe having its own laws according to density, distinctly separated by "voids". When you wish to move around within a particular plane we use normal modes of travel in that we move left, up, down, etc to change our perceived coordinates which is good for specific purposes, but it would be ridicules to try to move in a line to another dimension, being separate they don't exist over some vast ocean but on a higher very unique level, which is moved into by the change of the vibrational state of the vehicle of conciousness. It is a reproducible perception that when these transitions occur they lead to the realms that have been described as heavens, these higher realms have a uniqueness about them, everything seems to shine not by anything external, but of itself, from within. The universe grows more complex as "perceptual formations" but they also become more self evident as representations of some higher truth. Internal vs external. These are all reproducible experiences during the out of body state, but of course the question is not whether such scenarios exist perceptibly, but whether they exist as a structure "out there" or "out there" as a projection of mind. As Plato has pointed out so long ago, the individual cannot tell "essence" from "perception" or if you like "appearances" from "reality" by the very fact there is "mediation" in perception, they described it as disposition of the soul, tho maybe a psychologist would describe it in modern terms "that perception is a controlled psychedelic experience and as such there is no "reality" for reference. So in this context i do not have a answer if there really is a "out there" only that there appears to be and maybe it is easier for some to believe so. Archatypes as perceptable form. Which two hundred years ago would have been a much more "rational answer" since it was not until recently in the years if Freud and Jung that the idea of the "unconcious" was even taken seriously, so there was no other content to put the experience into the correct context of a now logical "controlled psychedelic experience." Now as i said before the discovery of the unconscious was a way to contextualize every experience especially dreams, yet this next discovery would have much farther reaching implications. I mentioned earlier that the vehicle of conciousness was a "archetypal" frame work, maybe so, but what is a archetype? Again books have been filled and i do not wish to give a collective record of the importance of archetypes in reference to the individual, i only wish to share with you ideas that may have a reference for the re contextualization of aspects of out of body experiences. Archetypes in this context can be understood as pre-existing psychic structures that developed as a aspect of our evolutionary heritage. aspects of our ancestors memories, dreams, myths, etc basically has been evolving and collecting in mind-space which filled with concrete manifestations of our psychic ancestry, hypothetically as far back as the first impressions we can understand as memory imprinted itself in the minds of prehistoric life forms. Structure. So as such we all have built in internal worlds that are as impersonal in their existence as china is from you know. They exist as a entire universe structured into your brain where entire cities,oceans,worlds, etc exist in wait,until such a individual finds a way away from ordinary conciousness, into this vaster world of mind, but just as it takes a great deal of effort to get to china, it also takes a unique type of effort to visit the lands across that metaphorical vast ocean to the land of archetypes. It was noted in Carle Jungs memoirs that when he told Freud of his discovery of the "Collective unconscious" which can be understood as the Context for archetypal Content to manifest, Froyde said " We cannot tell the public, it will unleash a flood of black occultism." Implications of facts. Both Carle Jung and Freud were well aware of the occults view that man is a reflection of the Multiverse (micro macro concept) that in our original innocent individuality, we reflected the entirety of the universe, in contemplation of the godhead (within Full"ness" of time as described by Thomas Aquinas). Lucifer which means the (light bearer) is not a person walking around the astral plane (well maybe) but he is that expressed archetypal personification of our break in contemplation of "the one" thus throwing us into time and space (garden of Edan scenario) (being a a elaboration of a former gnostic story were Lucifer was first asked to bow to Adam and Eve) then it is purposed that our end is in contemplation once more of the divine, but as expressed in Christianity " Christ first had to die in order to redeem humanity" (i.e. Christ represents the individual which must die of his "individuality" to be reborn in eternity, to reflect once more in his newly perfectly evolved state the godhead." This is a continues expression and evolution where the individual becomes fully aware of his mind and as a counterpart of such understanding, knowledge of its reflected "Out there." which is reflected very well by William Blake when he said "If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite(2). It is also interesting to note that in the golden dawn system of magick the final level is complete identification with the entirety of that which is internal, which is a perfect reflection of the macrocosm(And by associationtion "god"). This is what the Buddhists call the perfected state of not "self" and paradoxically Hindus call the perfected state of "Self." The implications i feel are obvious, with this blue print of the human psyche, it was now possible to contextualize and rationalize not only "astral projection" but also states brought on by drugs trances and the ever popular invocation of angelic or demonic entities into perceived physical mind-space. (but that is a even longer story) What kind of world would appear if this was integrated into the main stream conciousness? I would rather not speculate, but it it obvious to Freud at least, it represented the downfall of western civilization. Well i disagree. Conclusion. Through evolution in our subjective conciousness that which appears to be out there also changes, we will break through continuous layers of Archatpual planes that by nature of their being, reflect perfectly those other subtle layers "out there." Hermes said a very long time ago "so above, also below" then in the Holy Bible similare things were postulated " So within, as without" even that guy every one seems to get cought up with, i think his name was Christ, any way he said "the kingdom of heaven is within." Which i dont think he ment that as some kind of divine joke, but a reproducible subjective truth in the correct conditions of humility, peace, contemplation, and love. ( Blessed are the poor in spirit for the kingdom of heaven is theirs to inherit i.e. poor in spirt is poorness of the vanities of individuality which way down the soul) Yes indeed necasary conditions, but the implications of these traits are subtle in physicality, which brings me again to "astral Projection" because it is in that pure condition of concious out of body awareness we fuffil the necessary conditions for atleas a synthetic existance in heaven, at best full intagration. Thank you , your friend, Austin. Coming Soon "Techniques for evolution of mind"
