Re: All Questions to M.Raduga

Can you predict what would do your friend in the phase with you? Your subconscious can do in thousands time better with much more detail.

But all is the same in phases of two different people is a very very very rare situation. Usually only simple things can be the same (one place), but not details.

Usually only novices are interested in topics like this, because experienced practitioners lose all interest after some tests.

A lot of people discusses it through the Internet, but it's just discussions and some stories. If someone really could meet another person in AP/OBE/LD he/she would get the Nobel prize or $1 million from James Randi Educational Foundation. As I know, no one even try to do an attempt to prove it with help of JREF

You know, maybe it is possible. But there is no clear evidence, so there's no sence to lose your time and practice on it (like thousands others do). There's a lot of things you really can do. Let's use them now (check the application chapter in SOBT).

Hi, is keeping a journal needed to be good at anything related to phaise experience. So many books say to keep a journal. Personally, i can remember my experiences just fine. Or should i keep one any way?

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:55 am

From SOBT:

Keeping a journal can be of much help while learning and practicing the phase. When properly kept, a journal can help a practitioner to develop an analysis that will increase the quality of phase experiences. By and large, keeping a journal helps to iron out a sporadic practice, turning it into a structured discipline that can be mastered.
An effective diary should contain a massive amount of indicators that allow a statistical study to uncover patterns. It is essential that each entry include the date, time of day or night, a detailed account of entries into the phase and phase experiences. Descriptions of mistakes and a plan of action for the next phase should also be recorded. During the novice stages of practice, even noting unsuccessful entry attempts is beneficial. Later on, only successful phase experiences may be recorded.

Here is an example of a proper journal entry:

Data:
Experience No. 12

January 5th, 2008
2:33 PM

Experience:

I woke up early in the morning. After exercising, I took a shower and ate breakfast. I watched TV and read books until lunch.
I laid down for a nap at 1 PM, right after lunch. I felt like performing indirect techniques, and affirmed this intention. I woke up the first time to movement, but after trying to employ forced falling asleep (in order to negate the effects of the movement), I fell asleep. I woke up the second time without movement and tried to roll out. This didnâ€™t work and I tried levitating and getting up. After that, I moved on to phantom wiggling. Movement occurred in my right hand. After doing this for several seconds, I decided to try listening in. Sounds started, but I was unable to make them louder. However, images appeared before my eyes and I started to view them. After they became realistic, I decided to try rolling out and it worked without a hitch.
My vision was dim, as if through a veil. But then, the rest of the sensations I felt reached the verge of reality. This is when I went to the window. For some reason, it was summer outside, and not winter. There was a red fire-truck outside the window. There were really low clouds in the sky. The sun was above them.
Next, everything quickly faded away and I found myself back in my body. Then, I got up and looked at the time. It was 2:15 PM.

Mistakes:

1. When the phantom wiggling worked, I should have aggressively tried to increase the range of movement, and not simply done wiggling, let alone change to another technique. After all, if wiggling occurs, the phase can always be entered. 2. The same with the sounds. I had no great desire to amplify sounds or even listen in. Everything was done lackadaisically. 3. I should have started with deepening and not actions, as visual sensations were not vivid. 4. I should have employed techniques for maintaining. 5. You canâ€™t look down for long without simultaneously using techniques for maintaining, yet I took in everything outside the window and in the sky. 6. I forgot about the plan of action. 7. I should have tried again to enter the phase.

Plan of action for next time:

1. Definitely deepen the phase as much as possible. 2. I should try to go through a wall. 3. Translocate to my Auntie in New York. 4. Translocate to the Statue of Liberty and examine her crown. 5. Try to conduct the experiment of putting my hand into my head.

The next time I am within a phase, I want to try shapeshifting.

I absolutely love wolves. Amazing creatures. And now I have a chance to actually become one. I read about this in your book, but there was not enough information. How do I transform? Just by imagining?

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Thu Jun 30, 2011 5:26 pm

Yes, it's one of the best things to do in the phase

There's a few primary ways to achieve that:
- try to run as if you're a wolf and try to feel his body and you'll get it (as in movies)
- concentrate on wolf's body while separating
- concentrate on wolf's body while translocation

Michael, are there any people that exist only in your dreams (sub-conscious) that you have reoccuring experiences with?

I am going to start interacting with the characters in my dreams more frequently. Will any of them reoccur and have continued experiences with me.

I understand that these are just my sub-conscious.

LucidDreaming · Post by **LucidDreaming** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 11:48 am

I have a dream character which keeps appearing in my dream. It's middle aged woman. She always helps me in my dream control.

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 10:00 pm

It happens to me only due to an obtaining information technique. I used to meet in the phase a sage. He's almost my friend now)

Actually it's a very potential topic to research. Nobody did it properly.

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Tue Jul 19, 2011 5:03 am

Has OBE anything to do with increasing the energy of wealth and luck?

Wealth - obtaining information techniques
Luck - only if you believe in such sort of energy...

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Tue Jul 19, 2011 5:15 am

Does Michael talk about kundalini or the role of sex in OBE? I can't find anything on this. Because in REM states we are sexually aroused, and i thought that this could give rise to orgasmic feelings and such things as are associated with kundalini and chakra awakening.

Thanks

David

I don't think there's anything related to such things like chakras, but sometimes there is a very high level of sexual desire anyway. Many use the phase for sexual purposes. It's normal.

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Tue Jul 19, 2011 3:37 pm

One point which is not clear to me, is how much I can
actually communicate with other (living) people while in the phase. If
I tell my wife something in the phase, how can I know if Iâ€™m talking
to her really or to a simulated image?

Just try it) There's a lot of discussion to prove it or to doubt it, but it's very easy to see in real practice. That's why I use the new term The Phase to unite all other dissociative phenomena. In the phase you can't meet any real person.

Hi. I was just wondering, in your research, have you found any one who can enter the phais fully conscious from start to finish? From my experience, this is not possible. It seems there has to be a lapse in awareness in order for the brain to shift in to the right focus. Is this correct? I have read that people can apparently stay aware the whole time from being awake to phais but, i don't think its possible.

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Mon Aug 01, 2011 1:35 pm

You're right. These lapses in consciousness is the primary principles of direct techniques. But sometimes there can be rare exceptions. For example, while the deffered method or after strong sleep deprivations.

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Tue Aug 02, 2011 1:30 pm

I'm a beginner and recently have had just 2 successful attempts through indirect technique.

Yesterday evening(during a nap) i tried to enter the phase through sleep paralysis but i remained locked in my body though i had visual sensory.The only parts i could move were my hands.I could hold my palms together with great effort.After immense efforts for separation i could roll out but immediately returned to my body.

THIS IS FROM YOUR BOOK->

"Sometimes inertia,difficulty, or a barrier will arise during a separation attempt. No attention should be given to these problems. Instead, resolve to separate - decidedly and aggressively climb out of the body"

1-IS THIS WHAT I EXPERIENCED ?
2-SOMETIMES I GET REPEATED SLEEP PARALYSIS [ONE AFTER ANOTHER IMMEDIATELY] LIKE ABOUT 3 TO 4 OF THEM (AFTER WAKING FROM ONE I GO INTO ANOTHER OF THEM).WHAT DOES THIS MEAN ?
3-THINGS I SEE IN THE ASTRAL WORLD ARE A COMBINATION OF REAL AND UNREAL EVENTS IN THE PHYSICAL WORLD. ARE THE UNREAL EVENTS DUE TO MY PROJECTION BECOMING LUCID DREAM ??

1. Yes, it was a phase experience exactly as the quote from my book.
2. After returning to the body you should try immediately to separate again. Actually, you're still in the state. Up to 75% of fouls are fake.
3. Sorry, I didn't understand your question

Jay Jonathan · Post by **Jay Jonathan** » Wed Aug 03, 2011 7:20 am

Michael,

Although I can enter phase every now and then, I never quite fully understood the meaning of "straining the brain" and "straining the body". How exactly is this done? Is this a totally imagined activity or do you strain something inside physically?

I only use this technique once in a while. I usually rely on dream recall, fear method, and sometimes phantom wiggling.

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Wed Aug 03, 2011 2:03 pm

It's not imagining. It's real attempt to strain the brain. As a result you can feel vibes, inner pressure, sounds, or get spontaneous separation from the body. Actually, 95% of people can understand it after 2-5 minutes of practicing. If you cannot understand it, just skip it from your mind till you'll get it somehow. There's a lot of other techniques. Almost 50 techniques will be In the new version of SOBT soon

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Thu Aug 04, 2011 3:38 pm

It's an unusual situation. Usually, people experience LD as a bonus to indirect techniques, for example . Maybe, you shifted your intention to much to that techniques. If you really need it again, just try to use your old methods. I don't know what to say more about this.

Another question is how really you need to use a different way to the same "gate"?

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Thu Aug 04, 2011 3:49 pm

Many of the things i see in the phase are not real when i confirm it with my family members (like i saw my brother having food while he was actually resting).Similarly the day sky turned to night during my first flight.
1->IS IT SOMETHING TO DO ABOUT DEEPENING OR ARE MY PHASE CONCEPTS WRONG ?
2->WHY CANT I SEE THINGS AS IT IS IN THE PHYSICAL WORLD ?

1 and 2. It's all about your concept. It doesn't mean you can't get information from it. But it's not so easy and not everything. It's obtaining information techniques from SOBT

dreamsrock · Post by **dreamsrock** » Fri Aug 05, 2011 4:39 pm

I have a problem with lucid dream since I tried your technics

I know exactly what you're talking about Dragonslayer!! Same thing happened to me. Once I started Michael's techniques, my lucid dreams stopped! But my lucids were only once every 3 weeks, nothing spectacular. But I gotta tell you....I'm glad I switched to Michael's techniques! I have much more success now and I feel I have more control, meaning that I can induce more regularly as opposed to doing the lucid dream exercises and hoping I would get one in 3 weeks.

Post by **Michael Raduga** » Sun Aug 07, 2011 4:49 pm

Check a very updated version of SOBT in a few weeks. It'll solve most of problems

Same here!
I hope reading the new SOBT will put an end to my dry spell !
Still nothing,just vivid dreams...it seems to me that i cannot concentrate enough,i cannot create the strong desire anymore as i did in the beggining!
Still,this cannot last forever,and do not loose my patience,cause i know when it will happen it will be very strong:D
Looking forward to get the new SOBT!

Hi, I have a small question. One of my friends always having phase from 6 years to now 17, so he asked me does he need practise like us or not?

Hi! Maybe our methods to manage and control the phase will be usefull for him. Let him look at SOBT

P.S. 530 pages of the new SOBT is testing in Russia now: more indepth information in each section, new chapters (fast start for novices in the beginnig; ultimate methods for very experienced in the end; collection of techniques), 100 examples of experiences of different levels and etc.

Hi Michael. Hows the weather?

Is phase another word for feeling enlightenment? oneness with 'god'?
Is phase the same state that shamans enter when healing and journeying?
Is phase the same state that a person enters when they stare at a full moon and so-called 'turn into a werewolf'? (fairytales aside)
Is it true that phase can occur spontaneously in a normal waking day?
Are animals in a perpetual phase state?

Thanks
