OK it seemed like it might come up in the latter episodes - wasn't sure how much you would touch on it here.

Well that is what I am asking. Not necessarily the why but is there a spiritual element here at work. I think so.

But isn't it also good to study this as well...we haven't found a way to overcome paralysis in general (in most spinal injuries that are a complete break) so perhaps a mystical approach could work down the line. I just wanna examine this because it could indicate higher levels of consciousness and ways to break through physical paralysis as well. And it could also be a spiritual experience.

@Leo Gura nice way to dodge the question about sanity and intelligence beyond human. I guess let's wait for part 2. But check your understanding of insanity really hard. And also what a higher intelligence would be. Not an Infinite one but a higher finite one.

And that's not mystical?

Very profound even if subjectively you cant control reality the differences are extremely profound. Wouldn't you want to know if Mars existed independent of your Consciousness or not.

@Schahin so what's your question?

Here is the tricky thing about reality. If it is objective that would be true. But if its subjective it would hinge on only you getting cancer and you haven't yet. When you do you do.

Yes I've heard this before. I believe one gifted in that they can experience sleep paralysis could in fact experience lucid dreaming. And that would be so cool because right now honestly my dreams are so powerful they are on the same level as the waking dream. I wake up in hot sweats unable to differentiate realities.

I've never achieved it in dreaming. In the sleeping dream. Never. I'm lucid now in the waking dream but have never been able to in the sleeping one. Weird. I have however experienced sleep paralysis which is a total mind fuck.

Wow OK that's the best experience yet hands down. I want a beautiful woman coming to me in the night where I cannot move telling me that suffering is love. I love that man. Thanks for sharing .

Coming back from ego death can be dysfunctional too. Any stories? Man. I barely came back to sanity.

I panic and try to use all my mind force like the Force in Star Wars or something. Like the Force that's literally what it is. And I always win. For now. Darth Maul hasn't won yet.

The awake sit quietly among us. The lucid unknown. The dreamer is known only to the dreamer.

Why do you do to break out?

@ExploringReality what is yours?

Exactly!!! I have. This is just entertainment. So ask me anything on that. Well I shouldn't say entertainment because there is much to learn aside from awakening.

I meant waking from the waking dream.

Exactly. But here is the mindfuck. What if this thing that you're in right now is exactly the same thing?

@Hojo but that's precisely the effort it takes to break out.

Jesus that vein looks like its going to blow up the earth lol

Well that's interesting because i know that and I fight it mentally. That's the only way you can as your body is dead weight as you say. And yet it works. After a few seconds. But I wonder what it would be like to stay like that for a while - with no fear of breaking out- would there be those other phenomena you mentioned.

My ego kicks in and I get scared of being paralyzed awake forever. But next time it happens im going to try and do what you are saying. Stay calm and welcome it. Then see what it brings. You will have it again. Maybe. I went decades without it and I am a lot older than you.

Awesome. Yeah.. I don't experience all that stuff but I wish I did. Your experiences are more vivid.

Very nicely said.
