Hi Gis, sorry for getting to you with such a delay, I was busy and I 
couldn't keep up with the list.
 
I have a pretty good idea about what you're going through, I had some 
rather unpleasant childhood experiences myself, very similar to yours, that 
have caused some serious blocks and "detours" in the ways I used to think 
and feel. The good news is that it isn't that difficult to clear. Since I 
had lots of crap to clear & release, I had to invent some powerful stuff to 
do it, as fast as possible. :)  
One of those "techniques" is what I call "resonance". It is actually so 
simple that I really don't know if it is to be considered a technique, 
everybody does it all the time. You know how, when you cry, or sigh deeply, 
you tend to make a "nnnnnn" nasal sound, when you exhale? And you release 
emotions with it? It seems to be the emotional release valve that we have 
built-in to release stress. Very effective, when I used to meditate, it was 
enough to do ten or so deep resonant breaths to get rid of the surface 
stress. At first I used to resonate a controlled mantra, and it works, the 
"ommmmm" thing, but the real thing is to feel the stressful emotion when 
you resonate, so it changes the pitch of the sound, it gets much higher, 
which is exactly the thing people do when they cry - they release their 
pain with the resonance. I felt that I should tell you about it, in spite 
of knowing about your astma, and the fact that I mentally don't know how 
resonance and astma get along, but my feeling tells me that it is the right 
thing. I don't know, you should decide for yourself whether you should try 
it or not. 
Anyway, the "technique" is to re-live the emotional situations in your 
mind, vividly, and cry them out, resonate out the emotions, and you do it 
for as long at it takes - when the sound you resonate becomes deep and 
steady, it means that you have released the emotional contents - 
permanently; then you just find another disturbing event and repeat the 
process. You simply feel your pain and let it out with a sound - cry it 
out; don't repress the feelings, it is better to stimulete them, to get it 
all out, all bits and pieces of it. It's as simple as it gets, and the most 
effective thing that I know of; except the up-stream kriya, which goes 
deeper, but can't handle powerful emotions, only unmanifested stuff. 
Take care! :* :)

What are you referring to when you say "out energy patterns?
 
This sounds very interesting. I also had plantars warts for many years. 
No matter what I did they would always come back. So after a while, I 
didn't worry about them too much. This past January, I decided that I 
was ready to have perfect skin on my feet. I'm not sure what I changed 
(obviously my thoughts), but presto, gone by March.

I just have to share another example of letting go and watching the 
divine will have its way.
 
I belong to two Toastmasters speaking group. In one of the groups we 
have experienced a loss of membership. Not a good thing for a group like 
this. We decided this summer to do a Speechcraft. It's a way for us to 
put on a mini speaking seminar for interested people with the thought 
that once they begin to find their voice, some will want to continue on 
as members.
 
The Speechcraft began this Friday. Four of us met on Tuesday to discuss 
the details of the meeting. We had no one signed up and so we were 
wondering if we should even do it. But then we figured even if no one 
came, it would still be good practice and we could do another one after 
the first of the year.
 
I became a little disheartened on Wednesday when another member called 
and told me she would be moving. Then I figured, we've done what we 
could. If it's going to work, it's out of our hands now, it's up to 
God/dess.
 
Friday, we had EIGHT guests! One person joined the club, four signed up 
for the Speechcraft, and two have to check their schedule. Fortunately, 
we had decided to continue on with our meeting without any attachment to 
results. I was happy to see our seeds bloom, but I can honestly say, 
that if it was time for this club to fold, I could have readily accepted 
that too.
 
So here's how I'm viewing surrender:
 
*    Do your part 
*    Let it go 
*    Have no attachment to results
 
It's so EASY once we surrender. It makes me wonder why I resisted for so 
long...

relaxation after and during meditation.

yes, i too have felt the vortexes in head and the pincing feling on legs 
when going to sleep but never thought that it would be related to OBE but 
i think i haven't had concious OBE.

I hope you get better soon.  I have severe chronic asthma myself.  I do  
not get sudden attacks but have it all the time instead.  But at least I  
do not end up in the emergency room.  I have gone in on a hastily  
arranged appointment once and was sent home with steriod pills when I  
had a really bad bit of asthma though.  But usually I am just on the  
inhaled steriods.  I haven't had many side effects from them except that  
I usually carry an extra 5 or 6 pounds of weight when I'm on them.  
 
WHen my k began rising in ernest a year ago, I did not notice any  
obvious change in my asthma probs, but mine is not the sudden onset type  
asthma and is more affected by exercise and allergens than by emotions  
(everyone has different triggers for asthma) so that might be why.  I  
have heard that k and meditation can be beneficial to asthma so I have  
been wondering lately when the "benefit" will start to kick in!  
 
They could not find any reason for the 
>asthma, all my tests were normal...except my lungs were inflamed.
 
Yeah, that's what they always tell me too.  It just means they could  
find no physical sickness in your body that could have triggered it. 
  
>   I'm doing better today!! I'm still a little tight but better. 
 
Glad to hear it.  There's nothing more pleasant than being able to  
breath properly!
 
I wanted to

Cool huh.  I see em like zig zagging points of light, but with no  
strings.

That describes how I see it too.  I first saw it on trees too, but you  
can see it on buildings or whatever.

Yeah those asthma meds are strong stimulants.  Makes caffeine look small  
time!  But your body does eventually adapt to them and you lose the  
"wired" effect, although it is a slow process.

Yup, this is a common question for OBEers.  Consensus seems to be that  
the way you perceive called "seeing" is really not so much a function of  
the eyes but a function of the spirit.  THe physical eyes and physical  
brain merely add additional data to the mix, in some ways improving our  
knowledge of what we see in the physical and in some ways decreasing our  
ability to see the nonphysical.  
 
You may have noticed that when OOB, one seems to think and see  
differently in that one may not identify a common object like a stapler  
when OOB until after one has returned to body.  It seems that unless we  
really want to know what the object is, the information does not come to  
us.  While in the physical, the information is automatically provided to  
us, whether we want it or not, via the physical eyes and brain.  So the  
physical eyes seem to keep us grounded in the physical.  That's my take  
on it anyway.

I too have noticed a vortex like effect in numerous of my OBEs.  Often  
after I get out of body, I will be flying around in circles around the  
room like I was on a roller coaster ride or something.  And other times,  
I will be rock still like the universe has been frozen.  I am sometimes  
able to completely control where I go and other times only partially.   
If I ever figure it out, I'll write a book and make lotsa money!  ;-P

Ah freedom, delicious to the heart. I'm not gay, I'm just myself.

ah yes . . . 
In Sufism we talk about giving up renunciation . . . 
Anything one can have is not worth giving up - so we strive for the 
unattainable and then . . . 
we get very attached to the result of having no results . . .

You outragious fraud Harsha - next people will be asking to become 
your Chela. Just be grateful I don't adopt you as my Guru - then you 
would be in real trouble . . . 
Next week? I am not even sure I will be here tomorrow - but then who 
is . . . 
Actually I think I will adopt you as my Guru. 
Tell me Swami what are you doing to ensure I reach enlightenment 
before the advancing groceries . . .
 
You really should be making more efforts on my behalf - spiritually 
I am worthless - why are you so lax . . .
 
Be Well 
Om Guru Ji Om

Hello evelyn,
 
This process of how the brain and eyes decrease our hability to see 
nonphysical, is starting to be pretty well described in the quantum theory 
of consciousness. But they would say that the physical eye an brain does not 
bring additional data to the mix as you say, but limits the "data" to a form 
of manifestation so it becomes manifested, "solid" in time and space.
 
For those interested in the evolution of the human mind true science here is 
an article that gives a good perspective on the work of physics applied to 
the mind today. At the very least this theory is good for breaking the brain 
washing from school on what they called science.

You understand the meanning of passing from a uncollapsed state (OOB in your 
words) to a collapsed state (the physical) in quantum theory :). In the 
words of Walker in physics, this movement is called the will, in the words 
of Ryazanov, a Russian physicist it's called the "fall". The "redemption" is 
the movement the other way around, uncollapsing.
 
An interesting thing is the balance in the flow in one way and the other, 
which according to some makes consciousness. But i guess it's something one 
as to find for him/herself.
 
On thing is shure to have OOB, one must think he as a body.

Hi Nancy.  I was very happy to hear of the results of your experience.  Your 
story openned up yet another issue for me that only this list seems to be able 
to answer like so many other things I am learning can only be addressed by 
her.  This is not a personal attack at all!!.  I am stating it this way 
because I need to understand the word "surrender" in my words.  I know it is 
the  right path but intellectually, I can't reconcile it.
 
I have always felt that surrender is a form of cop out.  That just giving up 
something and putting it into "God/ess'" hands was a form of not helping 
yourself handle something.  God/ess works in us, as us - how can we give up 
anything to something that is part of us?  God/ess receives joy when we 
sacrifice our efforts and their results to her but not our responsibility and 
challeange.  Please comment.   I think you agree but I need to understand it 
in my way, to understand how to surrender.  I really really want to surrender 
in honor to her if you see what I mean.  Love

Hmmm, thanks, interesting.  You are right on the thing about seeing objects 
like a stapler in a totally different light.  I once had an OBE where I was in 
very lit tunnel like hallway and I stayed there because I felt such an 
overwhelming love and Joy for the simple state and total emersion of "being in 
a hallway".  Go figure.

Call it what you will.  I was referring to an observation of mine that  
when one sees objects while OOB, it seems hard to comprehend the  
cultural significance of the objects.  An example would be when I was  
OOB and observing the contents of my kitchen table.  I wanted to take  
note of what was there so that I could check on it after I got back to  
body.  I saw many objects but was thinking only of their colors, not  
what they were.  FInally, I focused on a bright red roundish one and  
tried to name it.  A concept of "toy thing" came to mind.  WHen I got  
back to body, I thought of the object and realized that it was one of my  
dog's red rubber chew toys known as a "Kong."  (and no, the stuff on my  
table was not equivilent to the stuff that was currently on the table).
 
So, whether or not you want to call this extra info as causing us to  
become solid in this time/space, it is in my opinion ADDITIONAL data  
that is added by the physical eyes and brain that the spirit body seems  
to have trouble with.  
 
If you have read Robert Monroe's first book, you may recall that he had  
similar experiences.  In one, he flew to a friend's house and saw them  
passing out what he interpreted as large white rectangular playing  
cards.  After returning to the physical and checking with his friend, it  
turns out that they had been passing out the mail and the playing cards  
where letters.  In another incident, he saw a friend put some kind of  
engine part (I forget exactly what it was) in the back seat of his car,  
and Monroe interpreted it as being one of those remote control miniature  
cars.
