wow, I think I will just post this and also < a href="http://www.livejournal.com/community/astral_travel/84560.html">this combined with
Well I have unfortunately been neglecting my practices from the weekly astral course I'm doing in Melbourne. It's hard to keep trying when nothing happens,
but i know, I've got to work on it. They keep telling us there that's it's all about the practices not the lectures in the end.
but anyway this morning at about 6.30 I thought would be a good time to practice since I just woke up and was due for more sleep but hopefully i couldpossibly,
have something happen.
So I first lay on my back and tried to concentrate on my heart beat (as was our exercise for this week) I eventually felt it through my hands (as I seem
to do), and then I thought "well that's one thing established but don't forget to relax" so then I tried relaxing and all. did this for a while on my back,
then I wanted to go on my side (the position that I always sleep in) but i was still concentrating on my heart beat and then because I knew I could drift
off to sleep easier I kept going over these words in my mind "mind awake, body relaxed" and it was a good tune to my heart beat (you guys think it sounds
OK to do that?) And, after a while I kept getting the phraze mixed up "mind asleep, body awake" and, well I think, though I stayed awake for a while, I
fell asleep entirely and went into a dream. and after a while it led (or was it still a dream? I'm not sure) that I was on my back going to try and sit
up in my astral body, so I slowly started to sit up then I was julted back and I woke up - at least I'm pretty sure I woke up, cos I kinda thought that
was a strange dream, if it was a dream.
I'm just kinda curious if any of you more, experts think it was something to do with my meditation, or was it more meerly a dream cos it was something I
was attempting to do before hand.
Of course this has motivated me to try tonight etc. etc.
Sorry bout the long post but I really value any feedback on this.
I love this community! :) It's such a great help. Everyone is so willing to do so! :)

Lol just in case the communities ever disappear, wouldn't want my records to be lost completely?!
Hmm so I'm all motivated tonight! and beyond hopefully.
Yesterday I mucked around on here, making up for the two and a half days I was off the net, Lol (me terrible :) I burnt a lot of movies on CDs (just use the built in win XP wizzard. that's great. didn't know it was there until Furball told me that time.
And yeah, just trying to keep a lot of hard drive space free. I did a defrag on friday btw :) I think it's made this puter a bit faster! .. I had nofin better to do with it so :( there's some worthwhile puter activity on that day! Lol
I'm still yet to configure my router or log in and experiment. I found all these great vidio tutorials on the Netcomm website yesterday, so I downloaded them and made sense of them.
Today I'm going to install bearshar on my puter as currently I have no file-sharers on here, though I was debating it for ages cos of the adds in the free version that I didn't know if I wanted.
so yesterday was doing a lot of that, and decided to continue downloading my Neighbours eppisodes so was a bit anti-puter-social yesterday. was just marked as away on msn pretty much cos I could and I wanted to do other stuff! Lol
Oh and the other day I got my soni Mic for Minydis/dat recorder from UK. so am now just waiting for the minnydisc to use it Lol (hopefully at least :) if not can always just resell it) but I need to go to ebay and give em positive feedback cos that's what they gave me! :)
man, J sent me some later Julie Andrews stuff last night and I'm tellin her that she got it all wrong, and it's not her Lol! but .. yes it is! she still sounds great but just not how I thought she'd sound and it made me sad, and especially now she can't sing at all and (according to what J said on Parkinson) that she sounds like she has larenjitus constantly! Lol I thought J said she had parkinson's first. i was shocked Lol! ooooh she was yummy when she was younger! :( but I guess, we all have to grow older, but some sound more so whereas others don't.
It is totally amazing how some really go to the extremes, Lol!
Dad's going to come over today to put a network card in my puter so I can set the cat-cable up so I can free up my USB port! well hopefully! depends if my puter can fit another card in. maybe? so I will set up my scanner again, and probably my infrared so I can actually download some good ring tones for my 6600. man those default ones are sooo boring! *grrrr I don't really like any of em!

OK I will shortly be doing another friends cut, but mostly only the people that have defriended me. I have currently 101 friends listed plus all my communities and keeping up is just not happening. and well, my usual explanation of why should I be letting ppl spy on my private entries if they no longer willing to show me their's?
Some friends are a gamble so I can understand them for cutting me. Most of LJ-friend-making is like a gamble. I've made some amazing friends on LJ who I value very much (even if we don't talk all the time; I am close to them cos of their LJ) whereas others, as with other ways of making friends, we test the waters, doesn't happen, that's cool!
sometimes too, our interpretation of "friends" differ. that's cool too!
anyway all this to say mainly to get on more of an evil level with my neutral friends. the way I intend it to be.
If I can get it down to 90 (the amount I have), great! I looove my current group! :)

OK think that's bout all for now.
Til Next Time, RdFreak

girlie you know your computer stuff really good!
you seem to be a pro with it...
way to go:)

I was just reading your post in astral about that dream you had...well you weren't sure if it was a dream or not...[I have no idea either] mostly when i'm experiencing AP, i'm so aware that i'm not dreaming, since my consciousness is so wide awake. It is quite possible that you're heading closer to an AP though...that would make you go 'wheee'.

oh man I was more determine I think last night then ever before (this morning - i should say :) and yeah heard that being more aware than even this space is something ya experience. it was probably just a dream!
