Should we stay in or get out of the body?

Should we stay in or get out of the body?

In spiritual practice, when it comes to whether or not one should get out of the body or stay in it,  I have heard from Robert Monroe in his book “Journeys out of the Body” and I have heard from Paul Twitchell in his books to include his first one,  “In my soul I am free.“  For the most part, I thought that learning this was an important pursuit.  It seemed so magical.

After experimenting with out of body projection and soul travel for a number of years, and after a lot of reading about it, I decided that much like hallucinogenic and drugs, the practice of astral projection or soul travel constitutes more of an escape from  the present manifestation of self than a reaching for enlightenment or finding God.  Most of what you will find are mind created worlds and beings who know less about God and the Universe than you might expect. You can also run into some pretty nasty characters.

Therefore, once again, I seem to have made a complete  turn around in my overall opinion and belief on this subject.  We, as somewhat conscious humans, seem to have manifested from the source, an outward physical body for the purpose of experiencing life.  Never mind how that was accomplished, it was an amazing feat.   To disregard or reject the body, our temple of life, would be a denial of the manifested physical self.

Also, to spend our time in mental anguish and fear worrying about our fate, or trying to get to some place called heaven or the after life is also a form of denial of our current life.  Enjoy your life now.  Live your life now.  This is where your power lies.

Escaping the Trap of Time

The enlightened person’s main focus of attention is always in the present moment.  To escape from time is to escape from the mind because time is a construct of the mind.  If you dwell on the past or constantly think about (or worry about) the future, you are trapped by time and you will miss the present moment.  Use “clock time” when you need it, but keep your attention on the Now of your existence.  You cannot do anything in the past or in the future, you can only do it now.  You cannot live in the past or the future, you can only live now.  The key to happiness and a longer life is presence.  Continued focus on the future or the past means you are resisting what is and you are missing the moment.  That is what they mean by “Stop and smell the roses.”  It is the journey that matters, not the destination. (These are the concepts talked about in the book “The Power of Now.” by Eckart Tolle  I highly recommend it.)

You are not the mind, nor are you the ego or the thinker of thoughts. These things are tools created for the observer.  The true essence of you is the watcher.   When you step back and observe your mind and your thoughts then you have escaped the trap of time and you are present in the NOW.

Do Aliens exist?

Do aliens exist?” Recently there have been many sightings in Old Mexico of unidentified flying objects and even several sightings of a flying humanoid looking creature with huge wings. So many people saw these things that the Mexican government acknowledged the event and began investigating it. But like most investigations of these things, nothing was solved.

So do aliens exist?” In answer to that question, I would first I have to ask you to define what you mean by “alien.” If a non-human intelligent sentient species does exist and has made contact with some humans, or abducted some humans, who is to say that they are ‘aliens?’ If they have been living inside the earth or on the earth longer than humans then perhaps humans are just some scientific cross breeding or cloning experiment living on the surface of the earth, thinking that they own it and that everything they can’t explain must be an alien.

So you must first define what you mean by alien. These beings might better be described as natives or inner earth residents. If that is the case, some of them could even be living among humans and breeding with humans until the line between human and non-human has become hard to detect.

But most people who ask this question about aliens are probably thinking about those little gray bastards with the huge eyes, or those weird looking ones with the long noses, or those flesh eating shape shifting reptilian dragons, or the Dracos from Orion who thirst for blood, violence and power, or the Syrian dog soldiers, or the preying mantis race, or the tall blond race from the inner earth. Or maybe you are just wondering who the hell is flying those UFO’s everyone sees.

Like Big foot, I believe that they all exist. But they do not exist in quite the same space that we exist. I believe they cross over the realm border from another dimension. You might want to read a book called “ Hunt for the Skin Walker” by Colm A. Kelleher, PhD and George Knapp. It is a very interesting true account of an independent study of strange cattle mutilations and sightings on a ranch in New Mexico.

I think the mistake most people make is the idea that these beings/creatures come from outer space by way of space ships. I highly doubt that. However I do not doubt that there is intelligent life in some form throughout this entire galaxy. (It would be unlikely if all the stars and planets held no life at all.)

At the risk of being thought of as one of the many crazies, I will admit that I think these ‘aliens’ exist. They probably have always existed. I believe they ‘invaded’ third density earth a long time ago. Lately, more have come across the realm border to our reality. Many people have experienced them. Some can see them and some cannot see them. Some people have made contact and others would not recognize an alien if they were married to one.

But there is a theory that an observer cannot see what he refuses to believe or recognize, and that existence sometimes depends upon the observer. But then that is a completely different argument. Or is it?

Have I seen one? (I don’t think so, but I may have.) But I have seen a mutilated cow, and I have seen strange lights and a strange triangular object in the sky, and so have some of my very close friends. Most people I know have had some sort of unexplained sighting. Let’s face it, we don’t know everything. We could be just like the cattle in the pasture. They are aware that someone takes care of them and brings them water and hay, but they have no idea that one day they will be taken to the slaughter house.
