Sorry, Aimless. I wasn't reading what you wrote correctly. Brain Gym link is interesting. I love brain s**t.

Is Hemi-Sync one of those brainwave entrainment jobbies? I tried a bunch of them out for a while. If there was an effect, it was damn subtle.

much agreed, as I feel very ineffective in my present state :?

Hemi-Sync and Brain gym look interesting.

My energys do feel scattered everywhere. Its almost like Im hemispherically bipolar. I do either extreme well but when I need to do a mixed balance (particularly complex ones, like learning dance moves or organizing a long essay)- everything gets jumbled and I start to "glitch"

this picture is a fun little tool I use like a "hemispherical weather vane" to indicate which state of mind I'm currently in:

Yes Moog, The Gateway Experience/Discovery program is auditory exercises that stimulates both hemispheres to work in unison, thus the name Hemi-Sync. It has a number of uses and would be best to visit the Hemi-Sync.com or TMI websites and/or watch videos on youtube about it to understand it all better.

Hemi-Sync was one of the training programs used in training remote viewers/psychic spies. I have heard, when the Russians tried to remote view the US remote viewers, they zeroed in on The Monroe Institute in Nelson County, Virginia instead of the government facilities where the actual remote viewing was being done.

That's so cool Deunan, thanks for sharing it. Initially I was unsure which direction, then I saw clockwise but then I was able to change it to counter clockwise and after that I changed it back and forth. :)

I Googled Robert Monroe, I wasn't sure if he was the same guy that wrote about astral projection. I read 3 of his books that someone gave me. Interesting stuff.

It was switching back and forth a whole lot for me today....I am in office work mode...when I first looked at it was going counter clockwise..then it switched to clockwise when I read the text....Sometimes I can get it to switch back and forth on will

It seems it would mean more if it didn't pause after every two rotations. (Maybe it's only my computer it's pausing on?) Because it turns twice one way, pauses, turns twice the other way, pauses, turns twce the original way, pauses, etc. So that doesn't really tell me much of anything other than maybe that I have a slow connection.

For the most part I'm stuck thinking and understanding things in a very thoroughly right brain way I guess. I often won't understand what someone is talking about unless they are explicit. Say someone is talking about doing laundry and then asks "wheres the basket?", instantly I picture the basket of flowers on our dining room table, then my waste basket in my room and the one in the kitchen, but completely miss the context of what the person is talking about (they were looking for the laundry basket) because its so difficult for me to contextualize verbal information. When I listen to someone talk I'm experiencing everything they're saying in a very sensory based way, but unfortunately its not very logical and I have to work extremely hard to understand context. Its almost like verbal information constantly primes my memories, but my brain is lacking the tools to assemble the bits and pieces into the correct context.

thank you angel, but i was referring to the inability of non-pharmaceutically enhanced hypnosis to penetrate my skull. i am one of those who needs sodium thiopental for hypnosis to work for me. short of that, either i just fall asleep with no memory or awareness of the proceedings, or my backpain keeps me awake and distracted.

points-
1] one has to have a state-of-the-art computer with the latest updated OS, for this page to load properly and function as intended- otherwise the page will lock-up/crash the computer, or else it will hiccup instead of smoothly rotating;
2] for the few seconds before my ancient computer crashed, i could not make my head perceive anything but clockwise rotation. people who can do more than that must have a gift upstairs that i lack. :(

Try as I will, I can't get her to go anticlockwise, though I'll keep trying. If the results don't start to change, that would suggest I'm completely RIGHT BRAIN:
uses feeling
"big picture" oriented
imagination rules
symbols and images
present and future
philosophy & religion
can "get it" (i.e. meaning)
believes
appreciates
spatial perception
knows object function
fantasy based
presents possibilities
impetuous
risk taking

Strange........that doesn't sound very Aspie at all, does it? :?

I had no problem using Firefox, but with Internet Explorer (Version 7.0.5730.13) she turns a lot more slowly. It ruins the test but it's much easier to see her nipples that way :twisted:

His books are intresting. :) I like the part (I forget which book) where he goes into a OBE, visits a friend and pinches her to see if she could feel it and she did and ended up with a bruise. Makes me wonder what else could been done in that state.

let's see...

spying on people has been discussed elsewhere, courtesy of government-sanctioned experiments in america and russia. but to actually manipulate physical matter while in a disembodied state takes lots of psychic energy, much more so than the regular astral traveller can likely muster. monroe was an exceptionally gifted man, and my hunch is that he was on his last lifetime on earth before spiritual ascension to higher realms.
read "hello from heaven" to find out more about what departed spirits can do.

If you want to read a book that will blow your mind, read The Art of Dreaming by Carlos Castaneda. I think it might have been his last book.
I guess this would be a good place to add a link that I bookmarked. I know if I put it in PPR, it won't be enjoyed for it's interesting perspective, but rather inspected, dissected, sneered at and stomped on. :) Here it is.
