Time Meld
I have recently made some personal discoveries. As with many ahas, once the initial rush is over and the "well I've heard that truth before" starts to creep in, you begin to wonder what was so enlightening after all. Such has been the case with my recent blast of self-proclaimed, inch-pebble progress along the "path".
As I have reported previously, a current interest of mine is Remote Viewing. For me, the one thing that stands out from this study is the idea that time is not quite what we have been taught. See what I mean, this is no big deal for most of us, yet when the talk is over and the reality of it starts to sink in it seems like a new revelation.
Specifically, the idea that one can remote view across time and especially into the future starts the questioning process to simmer. For example, one of the little tidbits of information that I learned in Ed Dames' class (not from Ed, he doesn't like it) is something called Associative Remote Viewing (ARV).
The particular use of ARV that tweaks the mind is the idea of assigning a couple of targets, each to a possible outcome of a future event. Making a commitment to do something (after the event has passed) with the target assigned to the manifested outcome makes it possible for that target to be more easily remote viewed ahead of time. The viewing is done prior to the event to which the targets are assigned; a specific action (one of two possible actions depending on the outcome) is done after the event has passed when the outcome is known.
If you find this a bit confusing then you are not alone. It is really quite simple; it is just a little hard to explain. A good example of such an exercise is as follows: let's say you have two equally matched football teams that are going to play next Sunday. Thankfully no point spread is assigned which tends to confuse the targeting. You pick two pictures of known targets (but unknown to the viewer) that can be verified later. The pictures are in sealed envelopes and the viewer doesn't consciously know what they represent. Take a couple of yellow stikies and write on each one the name of one of the playing teams. Attach each sticky to one of the unknown target pictures and you are ready to find out which team will win.
It is a good idea to promise yourself that you are going to do something special with the actual winning team's associated picture AFTER the game is over regardless which picture you picked as the winner. Before the game starts, remote view the target in the picture assigned to the winning team, the picture you are going to give special treatment to once the game is over and you know the score. Open the envelopes containing the pictures of the targets and see which one most closely resembles your viewing. If you are lucky the two targets will be dissimilar and your viewing will clearly point to one of the targets and not the other. If you are a good viewer then you should have at least an 80% chance of being correct. Now go place your bet.
It is important to follow through with your self-promise to somehow make the winning team's associated picture special. If you picked the wrong picture and after the game you are bummed about it and decide the heck with the promise, then it can be said that because you failed to keep the promise - you could not view the special picture because there was no "special" picture. If you picked the right picture and decided that after the game that you need not follow through because you've already won then consider yourself lucky. Next time you may not be so lucky and you may be back in the %50 range, so just go toss a coin. Such is the mind twister when it comes to working outside of time. Enhancing the target pushes you to the higher percentages. This is known as Enhanced Remote Viewing (ERV).
A few weeks ago I was a little under the weather. I decided to meditate in hopes of improving my condition. Only a couple of minutes into my meditation I experienced a strong and loving energy surrounding me that lasted another couple of minutes. After it faded I couldn't help but notice that not only was I not feeling bad any more but I was feeling quite wonderful. The feeling lasted for several days afterwards and I had so much extra energy that I was zooming around my work much faster than usual.
I thought a lot about the experience during the next week. What I remembered was that the energy that I received that night seemed to have a person bringing it to me. The energy itself dominated yet I could definitely sense someone there. It was a male figure that impressed my mind and he seemed familiar. As I recalled the experience and looked at this person in the days that followed I begin to realize that I was that person. I realized that somehow an aspect of myself had come to me and performed a healing.
Exactly one week later I was viewing the event to see if I could gain more details about what aspect of myself had performed the healing when I realized that it was me, right now, that very evening. I had gone back in time and performed a healing on myself exactly one week earlier. I stopped the viewing exercise and immediately started to perform a remote healing, something I had done a number of times before for other people. This time I was connecting with what felt like another person, myself in another time, one week earlier. The connection was easily made and the energy flowed.
I continued sending healing energy back exactly one week in time for the following few days until I became busy several evenings in a row. Those few days of sending healing energy to exactly a week before reminded me of the idea presented in a book by Richard Bach called The Bridge Across Forever, where he connects with his future self for advice. I have often wondered if my future self would come across time and connect with me and give advice. I found myself again asking that same question. Then it hit me. How dah-umb can I be? My future self will never come back to me and help me until I start the process of going back to my past self and give my now greater perspective of advice, starting, like, right now.
Lyn Buchanan, an eminent Remote Viewer, has talked about Remote Influence. He believes in such ability and claims to use it to influence himself in the past about all decisions that affect his life. He claims to have measured the correctness of his decisions prior to sending back and receiving the messages through time. He continued to measure the correctness of his decisions after he started sending to his past self and receiving from his future self. He claims that his measured decisions' correctness has gone from about 54%, which is not very good, to over 90% which is much better, since beggining the practice.
The mind has to jump through some hoops to understand what is going on here. Some people that I have explained this concept to just shake their heads and refuse to understand. Others believe that perhaps the mind, as we are used to using it, just cannot make the connection. It requires a paradigm shift in order to accept that this is not only possible but also happening whether we believe it or not.
In both cases; the gaining of knowledge of a future outcome by remote viewing – enhanced by our participation in that outcome, and the remote influencing of our past decisions with our present knowledge of the results; requires that we suspend our previously taught belief that time is a fixed, unidirectional dimension. We need to allow ourselves the latitude to have knowledge of the future and the ability to influence the past. These abilities are built-in and all we need to do is learn the protocols to access them. After all, we are always our past's future and our future's past.
