Reverse Engineering the Self, Teleporting, and Dune
At the end of Reverse Engineering the Self, Eric discusses the movie Dune. He and the students talk about folding space. One of the students, anyone know who, describes the space behind your closed eyes and being able to feel or sense the depth that goes beyond the surface of the back of your eyelids. I would venture a guess to say that he is describing the dimensional depth I feel when meditating. He goes on to talk about how when you feel the tones changing you feels yourself moving. Eric then continues on to talk about the “pilots” in the movie Dune and how they travel without movement. He explains that they assimilate the ship then they breath in, hold and out and they are were they want to be.
After listen to this I got a chill up my spine. It made me remember a reoccurring dream that I had when I was younger. When I say younger I mean like 14-15 years old, so around 14 years ago. It is a little weird so bare with me. In this dream I would go into the bathroom I used in the basement and close the door. I would sit down on the toilet but not to use it. I would sit there and close my eyes take a deep breathe and then I would open my eyes and I would be in the bathroom upstairs, sitting on the toilet in there. It was not a far trip by any means, but cool all the same. The same dream happened many times and always felt very real to me. Something inside of me told me that it was possible. So much so that I tried several times to replicate it while I was wake. I just knew that if I could invoke that same feeling that I had when I did it in the dream that I could do it. I was never successful and it was soon filed away in the back of my mind.
So now I am looking back on it now and noticing a few similarities to what Eric was talking about in Dune. My Tube was the bathroom with the closed door. It separated me from the grid so I was able do it without the doubt of someone watching me. The breathe would get me into the right state of mind and the feeling was me being in the place I wanted to be.
I just recently have started to hear tones more readily. I began noticing them more when I started doing the middle pillar exercise that my Star Reach coach Dan had taught me. After reading what John wrote in his Tones Movement Breakthrough blog I have started trying, the wrong word I know, to resonate them more and let the tones move me. I think it all relates back to what the student was talking about at the end of the CD. As you move from one tone to the next you are moving but without moving. Could you also say that by moving from one tone to the next we are folding space to get there? Does it each different tone represent a different place dimensionally?
So I thought I would share this. Food for thought if nothing else.

Wearing Down the Governor
Wearing Down the Governor There are a lot of simple things that can be done to wear down our governor’s. The governor is the part of the brain, part of our physiology that keeps us from having spiritual experiences. Just like when a mechanical governor is put in a car to keep it from going to fast. We can do little things through the day that help wear the governor. To give you examples I am going to share some of the things that I do.
- I have a dog that spends a lot of time in the backyard. Before I open the door to call him inside I stand there, go into non thought, and try and locate where in the backyard he is. I have surprised myself how often I have gotten it right. Each time I do it is another chink in the governor armor.
- I wrote earlier about when I was putting up Christmas lights this season and I used Time Stepping and trusted my navigator to find a burnt out bulb.
- I also like to play a game called, “What is My Wife Thinking About?” We will be sitting down eating dinner or watching TV when I will try and pickup on what she is thinking at the moment. When I think I have it I will just bring up the subject “out of the blue” so to speak. If I am right I usually get a response similar to this, “How weird I was just thinking about that!”
As you wear down the governor you are going to find that things start to come easier and things will happen more often. The ocean didn’t turn rocks into sand with one wave.
