OBE’s: A Gateway to Becoming Multi-Dimensional or “What you CAN take with you”
Thanks to host and interviewer {and listener, really} Lauren Galey’s Healing Conversations at http://www.acoustichealth.com/HChealing9.htm and to William Buhlman, of The Monroe Institute, for sharing his experience with OBEs {Out of Body Experiences} with us, and the resulting shifts, spiritual and physical that he felt within himself …
He is an Out of Body Facilitator/Instructor with The Monroe Institute who is very familiar and experienced with the target technique — and many others — you can use to travel out of body. This was, for me, an engrossing audio, which included William describing briefly a personal healing episode during an OBE which he feels to have cured him from what was diagnosed as Stage 4 cancer.
Here are my first thoughts {my “translation” or assimilation of what he said}, after this particular session, in a series of such (spiritual) guest appearances on http://www.acoustichealth.com, offered this (fall) season for free … and posted as Replays for at least several days after each conversation — with an option to buy all as MP3s or CDs.
William speaks of the only reason that there’s such a lag between our thought(s) and what occurs (manifests), being that the physical world is (so) much denser than the world within … the dimensions higher than this three-dimensional world.
Some fears or beliefs {such as: It will all be taken care of for you when you die … You will go to a heaven or elsewhere {which are considered to be locations, but which are actually different vibrational levels} — with the expectation of then/or thus you will be “saved” — may block us from having the reality … from knowing, as one does for sure when they have an OBE, that we are more than our {individual} body …
We all will have an OBE when we “die,” Why not learn … now? … If we learn, through OBEs or meditation or shamanic techniques … for example, to be muti-dimensional, we will take that (ability) with us when we pass out of our body at the end of this lifetime …
The Word: The Power of Inner Connection Through Different Levels of Meditation and Contemplation
Meditation develops “inner sight,” which is an exploration into the world of the spirit, of self-knowledge, of the energies of divine light and love, of life and death, of consciousness … One does not begin to look inward at the world of spirit with one’s flesh eyes open and looking at the material world.
Psalm 19:14.
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight.
Proverbs 23:7.
As he thinketh in his heart, so is he.
What is “Christian Meditation”?
This is a valid concern or question … within the context of this post. Do your own research or soul-searching. As a starting point, I give you http://rcg.org/articles/mtmt.html as a reference — and this from http://www.instepwithjesus.org/closerwalk2-3a:
“What is meditation, and how does Christian meditation differ from the world’s counterfeits? The Bible’s answer may surprise you. We’ll go into it in some detail, so that you can know everything the Bible says about it. Study for yourself.”
This is a well-written and referenced article, and I suggest you read it in its entirety and draw your own conclusions …
“Here is the central point in this conversation: To be afraid to meditate properly, because some others do it inappropriately (or even dangerously), is like being afraid to use the telephone in case you might get a wrong number. Meditation is an essential part of a balanced Christian life. ‘Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.’ (James 4:8). It’s a promise.”
“The principle is crystal clear. Meditation connects you with somebody. You might want to be certain with whom you are connecting! Every one of the {Biblical} texts {referenced in this article} commands that we are to meditate upon God, His law (the Bible), and His works.”
Thanks for much of what follows goes to a great genius of the Spiritual World … willing to share his ideas … for teaching me this … and (yes,) it is not only OK, according to The Word, to meditate, but it is spoken of {without even any reference to the “lost books”}, and is actually part of the woof and warp {woven into the fabric} of The Word.
There are different levels of meditation and contemplation {Italics of biblical citations mine}.
Different Levels of Meditation and Contemplation
Level 1. Daman level (meaning “to cease or be silent”) Meditate within your heart on your bed and be still (Hebrew – “daman”).
Psalm 4:4.
Tremble, and do not sin. Meditate in your heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.
This is the beginning when all the noise of the thoughts of the mind and the emotional noises of our affections have been silenced and stilled.
Level 2. Raphah level (meaning “to let go”) Be still (Hebrew – “raphah”) and know that I am God.
Psalm 46:10. Be still, and know that I am God.
This is the level where you begin to let go. It is moving into “spirit consciousness” … One moves from soul consciousness to spirit consciousness.
Level 3. Demamah level (meaning “calm, silence”) And after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire a still (Hebrew – “demamah”) small voice.
1 Kings 19:12. After the earthquake a fire passed; but Yahweh was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
It is at this level that one begins to hear the still, small voice of God in one’s own heart and spirit.
Level 4. Qavah level (meaning “bound together with the Lord”) But those who wait (Hebrew – “qavah”) on the Lord shall renew their strength: they shall mount up with wings like eagles.
Isaiah 40:31. Same Hebrew word used in Genesis 1:9 where God caused the water to “be gathered together” (Hebrew – “qavah”) or more accurately translated “bound together.” Let the waters under the sky be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.
At this stage there is union with the Lord (John 15:5). The Lord is abiding in us and we in the Lord. It is a tremendous sense of being in oneness with the Lord – God in us and we in Him. I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
Level 5. Chakah level – the earnest, expectant, agape love level of the deep things of God. For since the beginning of the world, men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen any God besides You, Who acts for the one who waits (Hebrew – “chakah”) for Him.
Isaiah 64:4. Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for him. Paul repeats this Scripture and spoke from his understanding of what this verse means by replacing the word “wait” with the word “love” (1 Corinthians 2:9). But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
At this level, one begins to see the mysteries of God and the deep things of God. Things which eye has not seen nor ear heard, nor entered into the heart of men.
The The Word: The Teachings of Jean Cambreau: “Words are spirit”
“Words are spirit. That’s why it is so large a task to feel them, instead of read them. When you try to understand what is written here you must understand in your heart — not in your brain. For when you think about the words, you consider their human possibility and you consider their human application and you suddenly perceive that you are considering everything about them through your own senses and that they are beyond that … You cannot catch them with your senses. You must catch them with your heart, with the love which you can feel, the gratitude which you express …” — Jean Cambreau to Philip LaSalle in Not Too Narrow … Not Too Deep, written in 1936 by Richard Sale
John 6:63 NIV {New International Version}
The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.

Perfection Based Upon a Belief
“Faith in the words of the Messiah brings miracles or transformation of the body. He said: ‘The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life {John 6:63 New International Version}.’
“Proof of this power was Yeshua healing Israel from all manner of sickness, giving sight to the blind and stilling the wind and waves of the sea. What was required is that the individual have faith in Yahweh. For example, two blind men approached the Messiah and asked Him to heal them (Mt. 9:29). The Messiah said to them: “Do you believe that I am able to do this (Mt 9:28-30)?” They replied: “Yes, Lord.” Yeshua the Messiah touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith will it be done to you.” Immediately their sight was restored.
“The principle is that ‘faith’ can bring about a transformation and renewal of the physical body, which makes it a new creation. In fact, this is what occurred at the beginning of Moses’ vision when he described the creation of the heaven and earth {Gen. 1st chapter}. Elohim {God} said: ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light (Gen 1:3).”

Passion Comes from Within When we are Connected to Spirit
Thanks to Nicola Whitehill’s post http://cosmicfairy444.blogspot.co.uk/2015/08/passion-always-trumps-excuses-dr-wayne.html#gpluscomments for bringing me to this lesson 🙂 of Dr. Wayne Dyer when he spoke of passion was speaking of the passion that comes from within when we are connected to Spirit … “motivated by a force beyond our control”… that same unstoppable divine force that makes the grass… our nails… and all of life grow… that Wayne called the “Impersonal You” / the Observer…
…THAT kind of *passion* (not lower level romantic stuff) comes when our Higher Self that Edgar Cayce spoke of ~ is connected to Spirit 🙂 Sadly the “default value” in (many of) us seems to be to try to block or lessen it and find ways to BE less than the spirit-beings that we actually ARE.
When we are connected to that passion … we follow our hearts … and KNOW that we have a mission in life: As Florence Scovel Shinn so eloquently put it: “There is a place to fill that no one else can fill … something you are to do that no one else can do.” ~ I have been inspired, too, by two intuitive teachers: Rikka Zimmerman, who speaks of and lives from being connected to “a field of infinite possibility,” and Ken Stone who speaks of transcending what holds us back from being our true spiritual selves as being the phenomena that result from being “disembodied souls” who have given away our power and thus are stuck (to varying degrees) in the illusion of separation … separation from the divine spirit within…
The Word: The UNIVERSAL Holy Spirit … The “Direct Line to the Divine”
The Holy Spirit is the I AM ~ the Oneness ~ the Intelligent Universal Energy that can be accessed by All and … the Christ Consciousness that came through the Readings of Edgar Cayce.
“Christ Consciousness is the direct line to the Divine, the Holy Spirit. Whether it be God, Jesus Christ, Buddha, and many more Masters that have walked this Earth, they all have the same thing in common, they wished for, studied, and walked in Peace.”
John 14:26-27 “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you. 27 “Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.”
The Word: God is Non-denominational
Several hours ago — after being handed a denominational church’ invitation to a performance of the history of John Newton’s song “Amazing Grace” — the thought that I could have said that the only church that I could be with is the “Church” of the Universal God … Where is that “church,” someone may ask? … “Right here,” I could have said, “right here” {placing my right hand over my heart chakra} … I do thank the Baptist church in NY for handing out the invitation, as it gave me an interest in the story behind John Newton and “Amazing Grace” … Thanks to William Anderson for posting this from Ephesians on Dr. Bruce Lipton’s facebook page 🙂 “There is one body and one Spirit, one hope … one faith … one God … of all who is over all and through all and in all.” Ephesians 4:4-6
All is Spirit … Eternal Life is in the Human Heart
“Vibration is spirit in motion” — Edgar Cayce … As all is (in) vibration … does it not then follow that All is Spirit 🙂
“Your Spirit is already eternal; you have only to move your mind and body into harmony with your eternal spirit … Finding eternal life in the human heart is the source of health in the mind and body.”
There are “ways we can purify our physical form to extend life, possibly indefinitely: One is becoming aware of the energy body.” — From “Breaking The Death Habit,” by Leonard Orr, Founder of Rebirthing
Tho I haven’t studied his life evolution and work, I am inspired by the perspective that we have only to move our mind and body into harmony with our eternal spirit to find eternal life … and that finding eternal life goes through the heart 🙂
May we let go and let the universal Spirit-Consciousness of the One Mind-One Energy awaken our eternal spirit within to co-create mind and body in harmony with Spirit in Divine Timing
“The spirit is life. The mind is the builder. The physical is the result.” — Edgar Cayce
Life is a Game … of Shifting Frequencies … NOT Visualizing and “Forcing” the Universe to Comply
This post is inspired by a comment from BodyTalk and Beyond Debbie Moran that she feels much of what “goes wrong” with the Law of Attraction is that people try to force the Universe … and that it is more about partnering with the Universe and realizing it will provide whatever you ask for in clarity, with a “commanding Presence” and “in partnership”
I too don’t agree w the “forcing” part tho I do agree with / acknowledge the truth of the biblical sow / reap “mechanism”of the Universe as so eloquently spoken of and taught by Florence Scovell Shinn in “The Game of Life and How to Play It” … Nor the “mirroring” part which relates to what some call “projection” …
Btw I don’t believe in life as an “echo” but rather I resonate with what has come to us through Abraham / Hicks re [being able to] tune in to frequencies. And of course it’s not an “effort” thing / effort being a physical universe production. Nor do I see eye-to-eye with the mass-produced view of the LOA: That is based on my experience of being blessed w an “inordinate” amount of synchronicities … none of which I visualized whatsoever 🙂 … including such as “missing a bus” back to NY from a Dr Norm Shealy’s presentation in NJ which led me to “stop off” in Manhattan and meet my fundamentalist Christian friend who knows of Busshism and Edgar Cayce … being rescued from a mugger on the NYC subway by a “stranger” who was named after Malcolm X who I admire …
The World Begins With … Shifting Into Wholeness Within
This (for me) may be the most precious post, to-date, in the evolution that became Theta Networker’s Journey.
The reason I am putting forth to you Tom Kenyon’s sacred, special chanting of The 23rd Psalm, “along with” a YouTube presentation of Neville Goddard in which he states his understandings/revelations about you/each of us being “I AM THAT I AM,” is that Tom says that the chant which he does of The 23rd Psalm opens your Celestial Soul and I understand, from Neville Goddard, that he had the same Perspective of (Y)our Divinity as the Hathors.
The Hathor Perspective of (Y)our Divinity
“From our perspective” {as put so eloquently by the Hathors via Tom Kenyon}, “you require no person, no entity or organization to be an intermediary between you and your own Higher Self, your own Godhead, your own Divinity.” That is to say: You are worthy of connecting to your Celestial soul and you…

The Word: See by faith and not by sight
There are only “co-incidents” 🙂 ~ “The spirit is life. The mind is the builder. The physical is the result.” — Edgar Cayce ~ The only question (for me) is: How willing are we to [ditch the so-called monkey mind or reactive mind and] do the “building” with the Higher Self / act in alignment with letting go and letting the Universal Consciousness do the co-creating in divine timing as in: “See by faith and not by sight.”

When I wrote this poem about 30 years ago in midst of the Purification Rundown, developed by L. Ron Hubbard — which by the way received a “thumbs up” from Gary Null, years ago — I did not give it a title nor did I share it except for a few close friends. I share it now, in celebration of my upcoming this-lifetime birthday, the updated site title and tagline to my blog and for anyone in the broad universe who it may resonate with … as I prepare for a journey… to what I like to call the “Land of King Arthur, Merlin the Magician and the Sword in the Stone” 🙂
Once upon a time
Way back on the track
I had the ability to create TIME
Here a postulate there a postulate
Before all those half-forgotten dreams
I had the ability to create ENERGY
In any direction
Without any effort
I had the ability to create SPACE . . .
Once upon a time
When I could move without my body . . .
I was very powerful
But I stayed here on Earth
And lost my abilities . . .
So I picked up a body
Even operating on five senses
Was better than nothing . . .
I was a human being
I used to celebrate
The ANNIVERSARY of the day
I picked up a body . . .
Down here on the planet Earth
After such a long sleep . . .
It would be so nice
To wake up and
Celebrate BEING myself . . .
Free in every way for life after life

“A modern-day fable underscoring serious problems in today’s … society, which are in need of immediate attention, ‘The Polity of Beasts’ deserves a place in private and public library shelves, along with George Orwell’s ‘Animal Farm’ — Midwest Book Review
“When the animals in a forest decide to set up a democratic government among themselves and elect a President, the candidates for the office turn out to be an idealistic eagle, a selfish skunk, a wily fox, and a very stupid ass — who, however, has behind him the advice of a savvy snake. But the animals fall victim to their
own ignorance, greed, and insecurities when they cast their votes for the candidate who best panders to their foolishly unreasonable desires. Once in power, the new leader and other members of government begin exploiting their constituents for the sake of personal aggrandizement. In time the leadership becomes so corrupt that the only way to maintain their extravagant lifestyles is to sell out the forest altogether by allowing it to be overrun by alien species — with disastrous consequences to all.”
The Word: The Convoluted Relationship to Sex and Gender via Symeon Rodger
One of the facets of the “new earth” consciousness” that we all — men as well as women — can be grateful for is the process of “unplugging from the patriarchy,” such as Lucia Rene http://unplugfromthepatriarchy.com/lucia.htm and others speak of, without animosity by the way.
What could be more polarizing, and by the way un-natural, than women vs. men based upon the patriarchal foundation / “interpretation” of the biblical Garden of Eden story … while dropping out the truth that the Word of God or Jesus was in no way {no way} originally meant to establish women as “temptresses” or evil or any of that misogynist mythology … What it was, was a “fall” IN CONSCIOUSNESS! “Tradition,” ya know … Except that the so-called traditions have been buried or falsified and used to promote separation …
I came across a post by Dr. Symeon Rodger, at http://globalresiliencesolutions.com/the-weight-of-history-why-the-wests-convoluted-relationship-to-sex-and-gender-still-screws-us-up, within which he highlights an insightful video by Sheila Kelly.
Why didn’t I know this years ago 🙂 , Dr. Symeon? … Well … of course we know why: It’s the “anti-nurturing” programming that we breathe in … the letting in of toxic [stereotypical] thought-forms which become our beliefs, and, without inspection, which we have tried to emulate …
As I experienced on one of Dr. Symeon’s courses on Qigong … that went way beyond qigong and the need, in exercising, to take one’s muscles tendons and bones through their full range of motion … he is on-point on more than one level … and he is right on-point when he says that: “One thing is certain: equality is not enough, and sexual freedom is not enough. Real relationship, meaningful relationship between the sexes on the basis of equal partnership, whether in a romantic relationship or in everyday life, is a skill that much of our society has yet to rebuild.”
I would add that what Dr. Symeon speaks of is a global issue tho it may be, as he says, that there are some “authentic ancient traditions of each sex having something to learn from the other, and that in the (Eastern) Orthodox tradition” that he is familiar with and a part of, “female saints are often described in terms that in Greco-Roman culture were stereotypically male — strength, warriorship, perseverance, wisdom, courage and so on — while male saints are often noted for stereotypically feminine virtues of gentleness, humility, compassion and so on,” the toxic thought-forms of which he speaks have taken root around the world …
And the resulting behavior / violence against women and girls is not at all limited to the west. Put differently, how many citizens of earth believe in their heart of hearts as rapper KRS 1: “Before I am a man, I am a human being … before I am a human being, I am a spirit,” or something comparable? …
As we are all connected / we all have the same divine, life-force energy flowing through us, I ask you to consider this:
While most white folks for example would not likely join the KKK or put on a white sheet and go out and kill black folks, do not those who bad-mouth / slur / harbor hatred or resentment toward people of color contribute toward such events happening somewhere in the world? … Similarly, while by no means every man would rape a woman or girl, or commit domestic violence, do not those who harbor hatefulness / resentment toward women / slur them with words used to dehumanize … also contribute toward such happening? … And is it not true that “mercy killings” are a standard practice in some parts of the world? …
If not for the “standard operating procedure” of collaboration between “third world” and “western” countries — despite the best efforts of some such as Congressman Chris Smith

— would it be possible for human trafficking to still exist? … Can there be any doubt that the widespread beliefs Dr.Symeon Rodger speaks of are global / planetwide, not limited to any one culture or ethnic group? …
