You Can’t Touch Me – Stopping Enemies in Nightmare Dreams

You know when you have a nightmare, and everything seems out of control and very scary?

It’s a lie.

It’s pure deception.

You have complete control over it, you just don’t believe it.

The next time you are faced with any kind of threat in the dream-world, try to say the following words with conviction:

               You cannot hurt me.  You cannot even touch me.  Because you do not have my permission.

It doesn’t matter what it is. Bugs, snakes, warriors, criminals, dinosaurs, an entire army, anything.

You are in complete control.

If you forget, remind yourself to keep trying until you can do it.

 

A man with a knife starts running at you, swearing at you violently, he is so angry, eyes glaring, teeth baring, racing towards you: and you have no weapons or defense of any kind.

An idea occurs to you. You stop backing away, and say out loud: “You cannot hurt me, you cannot even touch me, because you do not have my permission.” You stop in place, waiting to see what happens next.

The man with the knife keeps running towards you, reaching a point about 3 feet in front of you, then stops.

Why did he stop running?

Why isn’t he trying to hurt you?

He is glaring right at you….

That’s really strange.

But it will happen every time.

He had the scariest knife you’ve ever seen, but you had a better weapon.

 

Later there is a giant godzilla monster, 20 stories tall, his feet alone are larger than three cars! There’s no way he can “hear” your words, you’re so small, way down here!

Still, you say: “You cannot hurt me. You cannot even touch me. Because you do not have my permission.”

His giant foot raises up to take a step, it swings downward from 30 feet above you, maybe it will crush you! But you stick to your phrase – mentally, emotionally, physically.

You stay silent, you stand still, you face the giant, and just watch and see what happens.

The foot hesitates in the air above you….

It hesitates….

It cannot touch you.

It cannot hurt you.

It doesn’t have your permission.

David actually did beat Goliath.

Congratulations, you broke the program.

 

Humanity’s Mental Realization

Humanity is going thru a crisis of realization about the human mind. This crisis began earlier this year, 2023, around January.

General Artificial Intelligence (AI) is become really really good, and everyone can use it at this point. It works for conversations and research and programming computers (ChatGPT), art and graphics and painting (Dall-E), and many other areas of our societal life.

The realization humanity is reaching can be summed up: “computers can think like the human mind, with logic and reasoning, seeing choices, choosing best options, etc.”

Until now, humanity was so proud of itself for having the mind we have. We are better than rocks, plants, animals – because we can think! We are the only thing on the planet with the ability to use logic, planning, deep thought on any topic, coordination on a mass scale… all because of our minds. This egotistic pride has been with us my entire life, and is just now being threatened with this newcomer who can think the way our lower minds can think – AI.

The crisis that Humanity is experiencing is: “As a human being, I thought I was my mind, and uniquely so in the universe! If computers can reproduce what my lower logical mind can do, completely and totally, then who am I? Is there more than this lower mind, which remains for the human being to be, that is still greater than computers? Humans are better than computers, aren’t they? What else is there?”

This crisis will bring about a new world-wide realization across all of Humanity over the next 50 years: that human beings are not just a mind.  Human beings are not just a body. Human beings are not just emotions. Human beings are MORE than all of those things, because we are a heart, a source of creativity, of love, of beauty, of freedom, of sacrifice for others, and many other things that come from within us.

Human beings have a very-high-level part to themselves, which has variously been called different things: a soul, a spirit, a core energy, a Greater Self, a Higher Self, a spark of God, the God within us, a point of Light, and so on. There are probably hundreds of names for the higher component of what we REALLY are, inside of us; the part which can never be wet or dry, can never be hot or cold, can never be killed, and lives on forever.

Some individuals have personally had this realization in their lives. But never before has the mass-consciousness of Humanity experienced such a crisis, to lead them to realizing: I Am Not The Mind. I am something else, something greater.  I HAVE a mind, but I am not the mind.

This is an incredible realization, and all of Humanity is on the verge of realizing this – all because of the technological progress of General Artificial Intelligence.

I can’t wait to see what happens in the near future.

This is a great time to be alive.

 

Cannot Hurt Me 2

“You cannot hurt me, you cannot even touch me without my permission.”

Even though this music video is a little scary, the music trippy and hypnotic, watch it to the end – it’s totally epic. I love this video so much, I can’t really express it.

This story represents the lower Astral plane. You have more control than you think over the worlds you live in. It’s worth studying this and thinking about it for a while. Standing in the Center, nothing external can move you away from that position.

Here’s “Angel” by Massive Attack:

Why Watching TV is a Trap

We have heard for some time that “TV is bad for you”. It’s clear that many times the content of a TV show or movie can be violent and harmful, which gives us a “yucky feeling” when watching it. The content is never educational, you aren’t really learning better ways of living, or improving your life or your family in any way, by watching TV; it’s just a form of entertainment, to tantalize your emotions and mind. It’s fun. It’s often a pleasant way to pass the time, or a painful one; but always seems to be an attractive one.

The omnipresent parental advice that “TV is bad for you,” or “don’t fall asleep to the TV,” is not in itself enough to stop us from watching TV, is it. We know in a general sense that it must be bad for us, but we like to do it anyway. As with many things in life, you can tell me “it’s bad,” but until I actually understand and BELIEVE it’s bad, I’m going to ignore your advice and keep doing it.

Instead, let me explain why TV is so bad for you based on a dream-experience I had just the other night.

My wife and I recently started the habit of watching 1 to 2 TV episodes of one of our favorite shows around 8-10PM, before bed, every night. When we start getting drowsy, it’s time to stop, and we go to bed. It’s nice that modern streaming apps remember where you stopped watching, so you can continue where you left off – they remember the exact second where you stopped the show, and which episode it was. Rewind a tiny bit, and you can resume where you left off. It’s nice.

I woke up inside my dream on the Astral plane this one night, and here is what I saw:

In this dream I was “lying in bed” in some bedroom I’ve never seen before, facing a TV set just past the foot of the bed.  On the TV was a gentleman talking non-stop about all kinds of things, talking and talking, explaining and specifying, goading and expressing emotions and thoughts, without hardly taking a breath. I could feel all his words and thoughts and feelings pouring DIRECTLY into my subconscious mind, and it felt very uncomfortable; like being full, with no way to control it. I hadn’t been conscious, a moment ago, just lying “asleep” in this dream, absorbing whatever this person was telling me! The small snippet of words I heard him speak were not good things, but I don’t remember what they were.  They were hurtful and materialistic; not the sort of thing I want going into my subconscious mind.

Just as I was “awaking” there within my dream, seeing this bedroom and TV playing this show, the TV screen went dark – like within 1 second of my “arriving at consciousness” on this dream level – and the voice I had heard speaking now changed into the choppiest audio track I have ever heard. It sounded like completely sliced-up audio tracks from many shows, scrambled around; each sound-snippet being about 1/20th of a second long, all strewn-together into a cacophony of weird sound that made no sense to any faculty I had! It was an eerie, creepy sound, and I didn’t like it.  I tried to get up from this bed I was lying in, in the dream, but I couldn’t – my arms and body were tied down with a gummy rubbery substance, holding me down to the bed! I tried to shout to my wife to “turn it off!” and I felt very desperate.

About 10 seconds of this struggle, I realized that I was trapped in an Astral dream (once again), and knew what to do to fix that.  I forced myself to wake up for real, and sit up in my real bed here on the physical plane.

Man, that dream made me angry. Nobody gets to subconsciously program me like that! How did that happen? How many other people are trapped by dreams like this today?

I immediately did a visualization of rolling up everything I was thinking and feeling, the vision of all that I saw, into a giant ball of stuff – and fed it straight into a giant super-hot furnace that burned it all up completely in 5 seconds flat.

I realized that by watching TV for real in the evening with my wife before bed, over and over, day after day – that was programming me to be OK with “watching TV and tuning out because I’m starting to fall asleep” in our physical world. Which translates to accepting that same thing on the Astral plane – a very bad situation to be in, because then other entities can feed you ANYTHING THEY WANT, without your permission or conscious filter, and it goes straight into your subconscious!

Other entities forcing you to hear/think/feel things is NOT acceptable, and must be stopped. Period.

We have a right as human beings to consciously know what’s going on, and filter it – decide what is good and what is bad, and accept the good, and reject the bad. Decide how we will spend our emotional energy, our mental energy, our physical energy, in this world – what work to do, who to spend time with, who to help and who to ignore; what to do, and what not to do. That’s not possible if someone or something is pre-programming you in any way they want!

This was a scary experience for me. I never want it to happen again. Nobody has a right to do this to me, and it’s going to stop now.

Don’t let this sort of thing happen to you. Maintain your control on the Astral plane, work to learn that as you can. By staying in control of yourself in our physical world. Don’t let others have control over you, it’s not OK.

You deserve freedom – freedom from other’s control over you, freedom from your own issues which you can clean over time with conscious work.

We are growing and developing SPIRITUAL beings, living in various “vehicles”: Physical body, Astral body, Mental body, and so on. We deserve increasing independence and joy and happiness, which we can create for ourselves over time as we clean problems out of these vehicles and use them in the highest and best way to live our lives.

I feel that we’re all working in this direction, and making progress every year, every decade, throughout our entire lives. You can’t always see the great progress you’re making in your own life, but you are. I’m proud of that.

We must work to maintain self-control, and not let things get out of control – through any external force, or internal force within us.

Stand as one proud independent human being – arms outstretched to help all those around us.

Thus we become the powerful parts of the great future of humanity.

 

Bedtime Story: the Girl and the Seeds

There was a beautiful young girl with a pure heart and good manners who lived in her step-mother’s home. Her step-mother was very mean to her, and made her do all of the work in the house, cooking and cleaning, gardening and fixing, laundry and wood chopping, for long hours, often until late at night.

One day a basket filled with seeds was sitting on the counter, and as the step-mother walked past, her elbow bumped the basket which spilled the seeds all over the floor. The step-mother became very angry and shouted at the girl: “you will pick up all of these seeds and put them back in the basket, even if you have to work all night long! In fact, you must pick up every last seed before sun up tomorrow, or you will be in serious trouble!”

The girl was frightened and began working immediately to pick up all the seeds. She worked and worked, non-stop, as night came, and the sky grew darker and darker.

She worked all night long, picking up seeds and placing them in the basket, but there always seemed to be more seeds to pick up, under tables and chairs, behind the doors.

She kept on working. In the early hours of the morning, the sky slowly began to become lighter. The girl worked harder. The sky brightened more. She worked even harder. Finally a sliver of sunlight began peeking around the side of the mountain in the far distance, shining through the window.

“Oh great Sun, please do not rise yet, I must finish picking up all the seeds and put them in the basket before sun up! Go back down for a while, I beg of you, so I may finish my task.”

The Sun heard her plea, felt sorry for the girl, and said, “as you wish,” and went back down.

The girl kept working for two more hours. Finally she completed her task – every last seed had been placed back in the basket. And the Sun rose.

The step-mother, seeing the sun rise, went to check on the girl. She found all the seeds had been returned to the basket. She checked thoroughly but not a single seed was left under the tables and chairs, or behind the doors. She has felt sure the girl would fail her task, and was furious to see the work had been completed perfectly.  The step-mother could not punish the girl she had completed the task before sun up.

From that day on, the girl and the Sun were friends. At every sunrise after that, they smiled at each other with knowing joyful happiness.

 

Perfect Moments in the World

There are perfect moments in the world. As a child I used to experience them regularly. As an adult, less often, but sometimes I see them still.

In the middle of being someplace with other people around, at a park or out shopping, walking, looking, thinking, feeling, smelling, hearing – I would suddenly realize it was coming! This whole experience looks and feels an awful lot like a scene from a dream I just had last night. Let me stop and watch what’s happening – oh look, everything is moving right into place! It’s getting closer and closer to exactly what I remember!

And then it happens – the gentle shift into perfection! Everything slides in to exactly how it should be, just as I remember it, an exact singular moment in time for everything around me: those two people who look exactly like that, walking in that direction, one laughs just like that, while a bird flies overhead exactly there, a car honks their horn in the distance behind me and to the right just like I remember, that unmistakable smell in the air, that building with exactly that coloring, asphalt near the sidewalk has a yellow stripe with that one part discolored a little and a few small rocks strewn nearby, the grass and trees just there, waving in the wind just a little; even my thoughts and feelings, or words coming out of my mouth are exactly what I remember that moment to be.

I saw it coming, I observed it, and my thoughts quieted down to watch this event that was nothing spectacular at all. Then, as easily as it slid into place, as everything continues its momentum and movement, it slides right back out into the usual organized-chaos of normal life again. Everything’s back to normal.

How did I know about this before it happened? What is this extreme deja-vu we all experience at times? Where does it come from?

Life is not random.

Life is magical.

Life is encouraging us to discover more.

Fix Primary Problems First

A Principle for maximum success: “Fix primary problems first, even if you lose secondary benefits.”

The scientific way of saying this is: don’t get stuck on a local maxima – be willing to move in a direction that’s less effective, temporarily, in order to gain huge benefits when the end-goal is soon achieved.

Example: “don’t clean up ocean trash, fish and crabs are living in there!” No, you clean it up because of the poisonous chemical and bad energy it creates. If fish and crab habitats are important to you, build something specifically for that purpose out of ocean safe materials instead of plastic straws and six-pack rings.

Another example: you might have to sell your old broken down car for cash, and walk to work or take the bus for a few days, until you can find the new car you want to buy – and bring it home. Don’t rush to buy something, anything, just because you need a car – take the time to find the right one, even if you are inconvenienced in the mean time. Don’t waste time reaching that end-state – because the journey there is sometimes unpleasant for a while. But once you reach that “new normal,” it’s is usually very good, for a very long time.

In the United States, at some point in the past, some genius decided to tax cigarettes and use that tax money to help children and adults across the country with programs like Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). That sounds like a good idea on the surface, until you realize that if people stop smoking cigarettes, the funding will dry up and CHIP will be defunded. That’s a bad thing! CHIP funding will struggle more and more, the better we get at encouraging people to stop smoking. If we’re 100% effective at protecting the health of the public so that nobody smokes in the future, CHIP will lose all funding!

In this case the Secondary benefit suffers when the Primary benefit increases – a terrible design. Don’t tie the success of a good thing to the failure of a bad thing! We can raise money to do the good things in our society such as the CHIP program in ways that are sustainable going forward. Tie good programs to the success of GOOD things – creating a true win-win success.

Some people are still thinking Win/Lose, which is very old-fashioned and outdated way of thinking. Those people need to be told they’re behind the times, and agree to modernize their thinking. Until that happens, those people should be disallowed from designing beneficial programs. Disbarred from arranging future success. They don’t know what they’re doing. And worse, they don’t KNOW they don’t know what they’re doing. They think they’re good at stuff. They’re wrong.

In the future, people will not allow anyone with wrong-thinking and selfish-motives to be in charge of anything. It will be seen as ridiculous, and not allowed. The naturally inclusive-thinking leaders will bubble up to the top, and take over more and more programs and organizations, for greater and greater success in our society. People will demand it. It’s coming.

Focus Carries Energy

What you consciously focus on carries a lot of energy. You can prove this to yourself, if you want to, just like I have. Let me tell you how.

Have you ever tried to tiptoe past someone’s room who was intently working on their computer? You were trying not to make any sound, being sneaky? And didn’t that person notice you anyway?
Have you ever been looking at someone who can’t see you, but suddenly they looked up and noticed you looking at them?
Or vice versa – you had a feeling something was going on, looked up, and someone was staring at you?  You felt it, at some level, in your consciousness.

You wanted to get out of bed without waking your spouse, but the slightest noise you make always seems to wake them up?

That time you tried to put away the dishes, but someone was taking a nap in the living room, so you moved very quietly, concerned the whole time – and even though you only made a little bit of sound, clanking the dishes together minimally, they still woke up and saw what you were doing?

Why was that? Haven’t you always wondered if there was anything you could have done to be “more quiet”?

It turns out, the fact that you were focused on the other person, every little sound you made was directed at them energetically. You can’t feel it, but it’s true. You direct the sounds and (and thoughts and feelings) that you make, towards whatever you are looking at or whoever you are focused on. As a ninja, you’re your own worst enemy, in a sense; attempting quietude but doing the very thing that focuses and directs all the noise completely at your target! They couldn’t help but hear it. You did that, without realizing it.

Haven’t you had the experience of talking to a shy person, and when they spoke, it was a normal volume and they were facing you, yet you couldn’t understand what they said? They weren’t looking at you, they were focused on something else; the right words came out, but because they had defocused the connection away from you, so you didn’t receive the message. They are so irritated: why does everybody say “what?” when I speak? Are they all deaf?  No, it’s just that you’re not focusing your energy.

Lecturers and singers are taught to “project” their voice towards the furthest chair in the auditorium – and it really works. Sure, it’s partly breathing and using your diaphragm, but it’s also the focus.

We human beings are tied together by Emotion. Your emotional part of you is extremely powerful as a connector, to connect you to whomever you are with at the time. It’s less powerful if you let your mind focus on other things; when you’re “distracted”, people can feel it. Again, that’s just focus.

HOW TO BE REALLY STEALTHY

Knowing this, it’s time test this out – try to do the very opposite – practice directing your sounds away from the napping couch person, the sleeping spouse, the focused computer user.

Intentionally focus your consciousness in the opposite direction of the person you’re trying not to disturb – look in that direction, stare at something over there, focus on that. It could be anything – a fruit bowl, a window, the car parked outside the window, a door knob, anything. Keep focused! Think about that thing, try to feel that thing from a distance.  You don’t have to focus on “not disturbing” someone, just let that go; they’re unimportant right now.  Focus in the other direction.

You will be amazed – it actually works! The person who is sleeping will not hear the sounds – it’s just a pleasant and calm background sound to them now.

If you need to sneak past someone, away from someone, or up to someone, you can do it now. Might come in handy some day.

FOCUSED ENERGY EXPERIMENTS

How little sound do you need to generate, for your friend to hear you at a distance, if you focus directly on communicating with them? Maybe in a crowded and noisy room? If you focus your body, emotions, AND your mind, all at once, can they hear you better? Can you create a tunnel of directed energy between you and them, to send the message that nobody else can hear?

STORY FROM WORLD WAR II

When my father was in Army basic training during World War II, he was only 19 years old, and brought back so many amazing adventures and stories from those days of old. One amazing story he told was about the time his buddy ended a practice war game that his group was in, in the first 10 minutes of the game.

The leaders divided everybody into 2 teams – the red team, and the blue team. Each team had an elected “general”, in a tent, at one end or the other end of the land they were practicing in that day. It had trees, hills, a stream, rocks, a lot of variety to it. Which ever team captured the other team’s general would win, and the intention was that it could last for hours of complex strategies and maneuverings before one team would eventually win.

Now my father had a couple of buddies, and one of them was Native American, a quiet young man trying to learn the military ways just like everyone else. After the “rules” were explained and the game officially started, my dad’s buddy said something like, “I’ll be right back,” dropped his rifle on the ground, and walked away from everyone, deep into the woods. My dad and everyone else continued what they were doing, hiding & creeping forward, trying to reach better ground to try to “capture prisoners” and edge slowly closer to the enemy camp, and hopefully not get captured themselves.

Not 10 minutes later, the leader ran around shouting “STOP! EVERYONE STOP WHERE YOU ARE.” The entire game had to be stopped because of this one man – he had snuck around in the forest, past dozens of “enemy” soldiers, walked right into the “enemy” camp, walked right up to the general, an captured him with his knife!

The leader was SUPER ANGRY about this – that’s not how the exercise was supposed to go! Everybody back to your starting places! And no more of that fooling around, you need to take this seriously or you will be thrown into the brig. Back to your starting places – let’s do it right this time.

My dad tried really hard not to laugh from that; after his buddy returned to his team, a sheepish look on his face.  Well, he only did what was instructed!  He won the game!

It occurred to me from this story that my dad’s Native American pal had an amazing skill of sneaking around, near, and past other people without being noticed. I’m sure that part of his knowledge was how to move like an animal, defocused, sans thoughts, in order not to be spotted. An incredible skill that everyone in the Army should probably learn and practice, but of course the whole idea was never even considered, it was squelched like most true skills and strategies in the Army, according to my dad.

I’m sure that story is a testament to what can be done if you practice & learn how to focus your emotions and mind, when you choose to.

WHAT’S REALLY HAPPENING HERE

This is actually part of human development – the perfectment of you, a powerful human being. You’re learning about a power that you didn’t know you had, today. You have the ability to focus your mind on something you choose, to serve a purpose, because you are in control, and you can do what you want. You can direct your emotions, turn them off and on, positive, negative, whenever you want to, whenever you need to. These are tools in your toolbox, which many people don’t learn to control, but you can.

It’s part of becoming a conscious human being who is in command of their physical body, emotions and feelings, and mental power – you can turn it off and on, direct it where you like, re-direct it away from pain towards joy, and so forth.  It takes work, it takes practice. You can do it!  If I can do it, you can do it too.
