Are you going to make english DVDs from your seminars in California and/or New Zork?

I think it'll be available in the beginning of 2011. It is very important thing because this videoseminar can teach much better than any of my books (5-10 times more effective!).

hi michael.

about the videos of your seminar, will they be sold on this site or do you put them out for free download??

i wonder if i should go to one of your seminar, maybe in UK but even though it is cheap it is still alot of money if you dont have any money to spent, and even if i get the money, i am still not sure if i can enter the phase?? does this make any sense to you??

i am still having trouble about the forced falling asleep method because i fall asleep pretty quick when trying to use the method, and when i wake naturally i become to alert.

i simly forget the importence of entering the phase and that is very sad. i understand that it is easy if it is done the correct way, but there is a lot of work and failed attempts to get to the point where it becomes easy or maybe i am not doing it right.

you said that the videos from your seminar can teach better than the book, how can this be??? i mean would you be able to learn more from the videos or the way it is done than reading about it??

I think there will be a free version for 1.5-2 hours and free. And  there will be a full version for 10-12 hours that we will sell. No doubt you will be able to find it for free to on torrents)))

Usually we take on our seminars for free only students (up to 21 years old and poor) and people with disability. Real seminars very effective. 50-70% of group can do it in three days. It is easy if you can understand it properly. But I never can tell that you should go on my seminar for experience becouse everything you can find in the guidebook and even more .

Becouse you should do it only for few seconds

If not easy - you definitely do something wrong

Try to do inderect techniques as if you wanna fall asleep by them

The problem is that many people cannot use and understand books at all... In the guidebook even more informations than on my seminars. But when you read book - you have choise how to understand somethings and you cannot ask me. Many people practice by my books as if they even never read them... It is awfully. 

Everything about obtaining information from the phase you can find in my book Ultimate Yoga. You can download it for free www.books.obe4u.com  . There is full chapter about it.

I answered there on all your questions.

NDE = almost or the phase

I have a question. I did try to do this in the morning but I don;t understand how to wake up. I mean if I use a clock then I have to stop the clock from einging so i will move.

If i don;t use one then i wake up after many hours refreshed so I am unable to get back to sleep even forced.

I tried using a clock tha beeps every hour but I usually don;t listen to that at all when it beeps.

Where did you read something like this in the Guidebook? If it would be realy helpfull why I didn't wrote about it?

You should achive it by yourself. Only your natural awakenings can bring you a fast and easy result.

Some tips:

1. In 90% of all cases this problem is a result of insufficient intention before falling asleep. The more you wish OBE and think about it before sleep the more chances to catch awakenings

2. The more you sleep the easy to wake up many times. For example, after total 8-9 hours of sleep.

3. Try to use afternoon nap. On weekends, for example.

4. If it is deferred method you can prolong your awakening up to 30-60 minutes before falling asleep again. Of course if you can sleep after this

I wish you good luck in using the phase in your creativity

A practical videoseminar will be avaible In one month. It will solve many of your problems. Once per month - it is awful. It is possible to do it up to 10 times per day.

1- Separation technics: For me it is a very abstract matter and I don't understand how to move (roll over for example) without using muscle - wich I understand ruine the chance for an entrance. Do I have to imagine my-self moving or what? You say "just do it" Ok but how?!!

In right moment it is realy "just do it". After awakening you should separate by sensations you get from techniques. You should separate by body in which you feel the sensations. No imaginations.

2- Practicing indirect technics: I'm currently in vacation so I can afford an nap after lunch. Is it a good idea to pratice indirect method for 20min in order to get an idea of how it feels? More over you say that one should practice 5 times a day to get good results but if one is working and have a familly life, how and when one can practice 5 times a day?

Afternoon nap is very good for indirect techniques. It is the best awakening for that purpose.
I meant 5 attempts as indirect techniques, after awakening. It is possible to do it up to 10 and more times in the morning (deferred method in the guidebook). For example today I caught 4 awakening between 2 and 3 pm. And it was 4 phases... 

Hi Michael. I have one question.

I have successfully entered the phase yesterday and today for my first time, and I have to say that is an absolutely wonderful experience, but after waking up, I don't have a perfect recall about the phase, I mean, I remember my actions, but I can't remember with detail how does it feels.

So is it normal or I can fix this problem with more practice?

Thanks.

Usually it happens if you fell asleep in the end of an experience. In this case it is normal. Or if it happend in the deep night.

In all other cases It may be problem in the deepening, bad consciousness and so on.

A perfect phase experience must be more vivid memory than any other real life experience. 

Thank you Michael 

Sometimes, in the phase, everything disapears and is replaced by darkness. And only after several seconds of effort I can return.
Is it a deeping issue?

Also, after exiting the phase can I return to it by doing indirect techniques again? Or is not advisable.

Thanks again.

100%

hey, it is primary rule. You must try it everytime. A normal experience contain 3 or 4 re-enterings the phase. Read the Guidebook carefully

Hi Michael.

Im having some serious trouble. Im back to the school, so I have to wake up at 6:30am, and I can't get a natural awakening before the time to go to school.

I just fall sleep, and sudenly the alarm clock I use to don't be late at school wakes me up.
I have tried deferred metod witht his, but when the alarm clock goes off, I go to the bathroom, drink some water and go back to sleep with the intention, but at the end its the same because I remain sleep until the alarm wakes me up.

So I just need some advice to reach the natural awakening I need to enter the phase without the risk of arriving late to school.

Thanks.

Leave all attempts up to weekends when you have a chance to sleep more time.

or use afternoon nap

or focus on becoming conscious while dreaming

or try direct techniques before falling asleep but no more than 15 minutes each attempt! (and read about it carefully)

Of course, no problem. Moreover, thank you!

Nice latino  music

Hi, Thanks for all your work here and the time and money you have invested in keeping this site up and giving your book away for free.

I saw the link at the bottom of your page for 'volunteer' abduction...

Can you tell me what that is all about?  the page it goes to doesn't really give ANY details about 'them' or what kind of research they are doing.
Why are you sponsoring such a link on your page?

It is for inducing spontaneous OBEs and false alien abductions)
It works very easy on seminars. May be I will make a very big experiment with this idea in UCLA soon

Dear michael.

thank you so much for the video, it is great but i have to agree with lousou76 on the echo and the subtitles which could be better, but i know it is hard work and you get the message out great and you make me wanna practice a lot more.

i will put a link of your video seminar on my facebook site so more people can enjoy this great and wondeful state of mind.

yours faithfully johnny from denmark

Hi guys,

Thanks for your opinions

The video - is a test version so many problems in it will be solved.

Sound - I will try to make it better. We did it in a proffesional studio but there was a mistake and we lost good sound. I have done it better in 3 times but it is still not good.

Subtitles are good when this file ain't compressed(25 GB). I will try to solve the problem.

The videseminar will be for free only for people with disabilities and for those who really cannot pay. For others it will be only partly for free(a part of Lesson 1).

Hello,Mr Raduga,i have downloaded your video,and i have watch it!
I think that those who have,and will watch it,will understand better the techniques,the meaning,and will have a better idea on what to expect during the phase or even when entering the phase!Many are startled with those sensations,as you tell people that is ery normal i think wil acomodate with the sensations very easily!
And about the quality,it is good!For someone who understands english well,it will be very easy to understand!The subtitles don't seem good,but i observed it can be red easier if the video is not in full screen:)
My firs language isn't english,and i understood the content of his video very well!
If the ones who watch this video,will also read the book they will quicly get results:)
 

  Best regards,wiii

I was wondering when you would say it is ok to start trying direct techniques?
I have been doing lucid dreaming on and off for a couple of years now. Recently having one a week roughly using certain techniques like deferred sleep and reality checks. Would you consider me experienced enough to start trying your direct techniques? It feels like it should be the next step for me and the idea is very interesting for me.

Thanks, wiii

I was wondering when you would say it is ok to start trying direct techniques?

It is depend on how easy you can get the phase and separate from the body upon awakenings. If you can do it in 30% of attempts, you can try direct techniques. You have to be prepared that techniques mean nothing in direct way to enter the phase (only free-floating state of mind has a sense)

Now I lead only research seminars in Russia.

Read the guidebook and watch videos more carefully. If you have problems, you do something wrong.

Michael, have you ever researched memory recall in the phase?

What I mean is essentially trying recreate or watch past events.

Not that you could possibly recreate memories perfectly since our memories aren't perfect.

I've tried this twice, but couldn't get it to work at all.  I could translocate to a specific location, but couldn't create the memory.

From a M. Raduga comment a few weeks ago;

"Not more than 3-4 days per week:
(but all the night and morning in each day)
alarm -> forced falling asleep as fast as possible for 5-15 sec. -> techniques -> go sleep if no result in 1-2 minute :"


Does this mean it is good to try to phase throughout the night, every night? And then to do the indirect techniques every morning?

Here is my daily Plan:

* Drink a cup of tea or a glass of water before bed to make me wake up in the middle of the night

* soft meditation at bedtime; affirmations like, "I intend to awake and remain completely still in the morning".
Here are the Five things that I will do when I am in the Phase/OBE: 1,2,3,4,5 (review each one in the mind)

* Upon waking up at 2, 3 or 4am, get up, record dreams in journal, use bathroom, splash water on face, do some stretches, read difficult material for 15 to 30 minutes then return to bed and try indirect techniques.

* Upon awakening in the morning start immediately with cycle of indirect techniques:
a. phantom wiggling
b. brain squeeze
c. wobble and roll out
d. listening in or observing images (whichever presents itself)

If no phase within 4 minutes fall back asleep and repeat cycle every 3 or 4 minutes

* record results in journal.

- Then, 3 or 4 days each week try an afternoon nap and practice direct techniques once achieving success with the indirect methods two or three nights/mornings each week.


Is this a good plan?
