I guess it depends on whether you clasify OBE as dreaming or not. The device is scientific....ie none of that chakra mumbo jumbo. That link is just a website that sells the device and they seem to associate it with more spiritual stuff but if you google God Helmet or look it up on Wiki you will see the science behind it, or check out this video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCVzz...eature=related |

OBE's aren't scientific. |

Ofc they are scientific, they are dreams and dreams are. |

Back to golden age
According to our "friends" from Beyond Dreaming, OBE's are no ordinary dreams. They are "Out of Body Experieces". |

To actually answer your question, no I haven't had the opportunity to try one of these helmets but I wonder if anyone has done any experimentation with it to attempt to induce lucidity during dreaming. |
|
$285 dollars seems a bit unnecessary for something you can do with just your body. No need to buy external devices. |
|
Yeah it is pretty expensive but it might be the closest anyone has come to building a lucid dream inducing machine (aswell as other cool effects). I do agree that nothing can beat the sense of accomplishment and downright coolness of achieving LD's with nothing more than you're own body but I'm sure everyone would agree that it would be awsome to be able to just flick a switch in those times when our bodies fail us. |

There was a thread or two about it. |

Luminous Spacious Dream Masters That Holographically Communicate
among other teachers taught me
not to overestimate the Value of our Concrete Knowledge;"Common sense"/Rationality,
for doing so would make us Blind for the unimaginable, unparalleled Capacity of and Wisdom contained within our Felt Knowledge;Subconscious Intuition.
When I read the title of the thread, this is what came to mind: |
|
given the economy, doesn't sound like the best timing for selling a device like this... and certainly not at that price. |
|
Can you imagine trying to sleeping wiht that frickin' thing on yer 'ead? |
|
Actually, you are not supposed to sleep with it! Sessions only last up to 1 hour max. I have one of these devices and have consistent results with it so far (bought it Jan 2011). The science behind it quite extensive Publications by Dr M.A. Persinger .Personally, I feel more comfortable with this technology than using chemical substances which tend to modify receptor sites in your brain and or create habituation. I have used galantamine but it tends to wack me out the next day which makes me take it rather rarely nowadays. |
|
Fascinating. Looks a good bit like pseudoscience to me, but interesting nonetheless. I'm not sure if they are claiming that the thing actually induces spiritual experiences (in which case it borders on the occult) or if they are defining "spiritual experiences" as a purely psychological phenomena (in which case they are using this device to attempt to prove materialism). Either way, it's weird enough to pique my curiosity. |
|
This is about $$$. By selling 50 devices at 300$ from the website they can make over 10k$ a month (-manufacturing, advertising, etc). This is a very solid income for a niche market! I dont think a device like that is ready for mass market yet... |
