The Myth of Dreamless Sleep

Consciousness never "switches off" because it isn't generated by the brain. Its sensory inputs can be switched off - during sleep or general anesthesia, for instance - but your consciousness is still there. For example, a small but consistent number of patients report out-of-body experiences (OOBEs) or near-death experiences (NDEs) while under general anesthesia.

"What scared you all into time? Into body? Into shit? I will tell you; "the word." Alien Word "the." "The" word of Alien Enemy imprisons "thee" in Time, In Body. In Shit. Prisoner, come out. The great skies are open.”

Week 11 Entry: Philosophy Class

This week held a lot of coincidences.In my own time I am involved in a strange semi-ethnographic, semi-delusion endeavor. I am a member of an online server dedicated to examining the nature of reality in as many ways as possible, and it has escalated into memebers of said server receiving plans from the ‘leader’ and vice ‘leader’ on some ambitious schemes to build devices that allow pushing the capacity of the human mind. I am currently building one of these, partially for the bit ( anyone who asks irl gets told it’s an ‘experimental art project’) and partially because I have a deep desire for something beyond the ‘mundane’, and an arguably naive part of me hopes they are onto something.

On the idea of cosmic coincidence- the night of 4/2/24 after class’ discussion of Descartes “I think therefore I am”, I received a message from a member of this group (any more formal denomination is still in the works). Said message read “thoughts are just thoughts, they are in no way object or real. I would even go so far as to say there is no such thing as a real thought”. I responded to this user that I found this fascinating for multiple reasons, because just early that day I had been in a lecture on Cartesian ideas which seem to sit at the polar opposite end of the spectrum, where it seems thoughts are the only real thing. The only constant to your existence is your own company inside your mind. I began wondering how these 2 opposing ideas could be quantified, can these diametrically opposed ideas exist within the same canon? A common thread of these 2 mentalities may be the experience of “everything I see/know is false”. This brought me to the line of inquiry following the question “Can there be a science of something objective?”- The closest thing to a science of the subjective seems to be the idea of phenomenology, which immediately gripped my attention. Phenomenology is applying some variation of the scientific process to any phenomena, regardless of whether or not you can prove its ‘validity’. This term opens up a new realm for me to describe my strange endeavors in. It is also exactly what is done by Robert Monroe is his ‘classic’ 1970s work on out of body experiences- ‘Journey’s out of the Body’. He began experiencing what is now known as ‘astral projection’, but at the time was a very under-researched phenomena. Via phenomenology Monroe essentially piloted a whole new field of metaphysical study. It is a truly fascinating read that I have only begun to scratch the surface of. More thoughts to come (on can only hope).

hey cosmic I was looking at the astral realm and void basically just OBe experiences and such but IDK how to get multiple awakenings and be aware? And also how do I train myself to just not move?

Hey! So for the easiest OBEs you need to get 3.5-5 hrs of sleep beforehand. Your body gets its deep sleep at the start of the night, then transitions into REM and lighter sleep, where OBEs are easier. I like to share my Oura ring sleep data since it’s easier to visualize. This is from the other day when I had a lucid dream in the morning:

The dark blue is deep sleep, which only happened at the beginning of my sleep. The white spikes are awakenings. So I naturally woke up after about 3.5 hrs, got up for a bit and went back to bed (WBTB). Then you can see I had a lot of REM sleep, where I had a couple lucid dreams. The early morning hours before I got up I had a LOT of mini awakenings. Those just happen naturally after you’ve had more sleep. I haven’t personally used my multiple awakenings for any particular reason, I’ve just been having lucid dreams after I go back to sleep.

Answered ask: how should I train my body to not move or open my eyes when I wake up?

I am in so much pain. I meditated for 3 hours tonight, trying and failing to fall asleep. I had some relief when I reached an out of body experience for a bit, but eventually I had to come back to reality, where my body is still writhing in pain. resting is so fucking hard.

My Psychic Puppy Chai - A Gift of Life with Spiritual Powers

My new little bundle of fluffy spiritual puppy joy - Chai.

My Higher Guardians introduced Chai to me as a normal puppy (if there is such a thing), but I quickly realised that Chai is a spiritual little puppy who loves to invite other spiritual puppies into our home.

She seems to be like myself, able to lift out of her body and even invite spiritual animal visitors to come say hello.

The spiritual meaning of her name is: the energy of life and she sure lives up to it. She is full of life and has no fear.  She loves to fly in our arms when we pick her up and fly her around.

Anyone who has experienced an out of body experience (OOBE) can share how exhilarating the sensation of lifting from the body is and now that Chai is in her puppy armour, she loves to test out those exhilarating experiments with height.

I'll share more photos of Chai soon.

Love and Light Vine
