Bedtime `Alien' Abductions - Lucid Dreams? Or, Just A `Bit Further'?

To the degree that it is possible, I avoid the `consciousness' issues that arise for individuals who perceive the anomalous of the world phenomena surrounding us all. But, as regular readers also know, my feeling is that a lot to most of all anomalous phenomena may be occurring within a special consensus of space or perception of such. What I refer to as the ontological side of things - actualization's and such. 

Now all of this above talk arises because someone yesterday purchased the `lucid dream machine' technology that I have available via Amazon in the UDCC sidebar. The person also purchased two `lucid dream' books -- my sincere thanks to you for your purchases off this blog and - my best wishes for you to be very successful in your quest for the lucid dreaming experience. (I've experienced controlled lucid dreaming about 7-8 times when I was actively pursuing such mental endeavors. I can say that without question that the ontological landscape that is available for perception is of a nature unlike our ordinary spatial-phenomena. A very compelling landscape.)

The Product

Product Description

The REM-Dreamer uses infrared sensors to detect when you are in REM (dreaming) sleep. At that point the REM-Dreamer gives you sound and light cues (beeps and flashing lights) to remind you that you are dreaming, unlike the old Novadreamer. Thus, external world stimuli are transferred to the world of your dreams, and it becomes easy to achieve lucidity. The REM-Dreamer kit comes with a very comfortable sleeping mask with a small printed circuit board tucked inside that detects REM sleep, giving cues in the form of flashes or beeps. The kit also includes an LCD display device, which allows the user to adjust all settings very easily. The user can use any of several simple presets, or can customize the number of sounds and light flashes, their volume and brilliance, frequency per second, and duration. In addition, the REM sensor can be set to accurately track your personal REM eyeball movement. The device comes with the 36-page user's manual. The REM-Dreamer has given many people the opportunity to experience lucid dreaming, and the opportunity to use this natural state of consciousness to program their subconscious, influence their behavior, explore the world of the mind, and work with habits of body and mind, depending on their own needs and desires. The REM-Dreamer consists of a circuit board tucked inside the mask and an LCD display. There are two lines in the LCD. The upper line shows the menu entry (for instance: 1. Delay time), while the lower line shows the value of the parameter of the menu entry (for instance: 00:10:00 of the delay time).

========================================

It's an impressive technology with a specific consciousness objective - what's not to like. 

================================

Except, perhaps, the world it connects to?

=====================================

Are `alien abductions' the ones reported out of someones bed after going to sleep - connected to the realm of lucid dreaming?

======================================

First, I'd make a strong suggestion that there is a quantitative AND qualitative difference between even lucid dreaming and controlled lucid dreaming - as great as the difference between regular dreaming and lucid dreaming - and as great as NO DREAMING vs regular dreaming. 

AND - that the `jump' to `alien abduction' would be as great a difference - perhaps - `above/beyond/under' the controlled lucid dreaming state. I am also of the opinion, which is all anyone can say about such matters - that the state I'm describing is similar to IF NOT IDENTICAL to - the `mutual hypnosis states' that Dr. Charles Tart used in the late 1960's - to induce - mutually available landscapes for multiple people to perceive and experience as local and now - at least for a portion of their `space as a human'. (Which I maintain is larger than the normal consciousness we see and experience constantly - but - is also `represented' by the consciousness that we see and experience.)

==========================================================

Books By Dr. Charles Tart

The End of Materialism: How Evidence of the Paranormal Is Bringing Science and Spirit Together 

Mind Science: Meditation Training for Practical People 

Transpersonal Conversations: 6-DVD Special Edition Set! [DVD]

evidently his first two books are out of print and out of availability 

E-Bay Link To Those First Books - States Of Consciousness And Altered States Of Consciousness

(two of my bedrock books I read in the early 70's - SOC is available for about 16 bucks, a steal)

==================================

Now as someone who has experienced `missing time', with others, in a seamless experience in normal reality - I am not willing to make any final judgments on what is going on within some special state of consensus that others indicate experiencing - such as an alien abduction experience within some contained reality state of being. The real question is - is that a contiguous space with our normal reality or is it indeed using `our other space' - what I call our `able-to-not-be' space of which we are always part of being too. IMO.

The `part' of our space - that perhaps is `where our doppelganger is'. A `space' that is nearly always in our own `super present' except - when we sleep or alter on purpose our consciousness level (state of being). (Through meditation, drugs,  or other means - even technological means IMO.)

Because, what folks seem to suggest when they experience this night-time alien abduction, is that it is THEY who are being transported to the other location. (Almost without exception in a catatonic state of being - just a space being transported - that has awareness as being that space.) 

Or could there be a dream doppelganger and a `real doppleganger? LOL.

Beyond The Edge - Worthy

Good Morning Clockers. Hello Newbies to UDCC, you've arrived on a good day. The reason is that today you can get a fuller understanding `about my mental positioning' if you tune into an internet radio show this evening. If you have never done that - this might be the time - 8PM-10PM eastern at http://www.beyondtheedgeradio.com/ (I will be on from about 8:30 onward I'm told) - it will at least begin as a SKYPE interview so you can even see my ugly puss.

The show is run by Eric Altman and Lon Strickler - both deeply into the paranormal on an investigative basis - and since most people with this orientation get that from experiences of an anomalous nature - when combined with MY OWN anomalous phenomena experiences - and my very dry and non-standard thinking about such matters (that virtually all of it is Phenomenology related) - should make for some very interesting listening. Yes, tonight you can turn off the TV for internet TV. I'D LOVE for my readers to participate and the website BTER (beyond the edge radio) - has a chatroom too.
==================
This will be the third time I've been on Internet Radio - The First on the UK show `Now That's Weird' and last year on L.A. Marzulli's very edgy show. -------- One of the things that shows ask for on occasion is a bio - so let me reveal via this slightly altered bio that I sent to BTER just a start to where I `come from'.
-------------------------------
The Phillips BIO
Rick Phillips was born in 1952 in Shamokin PA but lived in Ohio within a year and grew up in Euclid Ohio. His first memory was on the day of his third birthday party while walking outside, and, he had his first `thought in his head', which was `I AM THREE'. His first startling I AM moment. Soon after, his family moved into `the projects' built for the returning GI's after World War 2 and Korea; his dad was a returning Navy man and destined to become a Fireman and eventual President of his firefighters union. His group organizational skills would have a strong influence on Rick - as did his fathers interest in gambling and a full understanding numbers and chance.

Phillips's mother was a young beauty - under twenty when Rick was born and somewhat of a rebel shortly after. Certainly one who spoke her mind as upon seeing her son for the first time at birth, described him to her mother as `ugly, with red hair like you' (the one thing she didn't want was a red haired boy). Phillips never really had red hair - and the dark blond color he had started going gray at 25 and now is nearly fully white in appearance. But, the rebel spirit was certainly imbedded by early influences of his mother such as declaring that `Ricky will not go to Sunday School' - followed fairly quickly by his mother finding `Humanitarianism' as her new religion. She was one of the first to attend a Rock And Roll Show in Cleveland Ohio (another strong Rick Phillips Influence) and one of the first `working mothers' - which quickly lead to her divorce and she and Rick moving elsewhere (4 times in 6 years) all in Euclid. During one of these situations Rick lived with his mother and her parents - including a grandmother that often said about UFOs (in Rick's earliest memories) `Oh, I wish they would land and take me'. When Rick's mother eventually re-married - Rick's political positions would be influenced by his slightly older step-brother returning from Vietnam shot up with shrapnel and addicted to heroin.
So, perhaps as a result of the above - Phillips followed the path that ultimately would include the strongest of the aforementioned attributes. Indeed, even from the earliest of ages, and awareness, Phillips remembers many possible non-ordinary realities; such as:


Time Distortion as a child when throwing a stone at someone and as the stone went towards the persons back - time slowed down significantly in his perception.


A one time `we won't hurt you' bedroom visitor who instilled sleep movement immobilization and speech immobilization - under age six.


Poltergeist phenomena in home - most likely of the grandfather he was living with at the time of his sudden death when 13 years old.


Automatic writing/Thinking - From 1974-1976 would have to suddenly write concepts he knew nothing about - later to find he was writing Phenomenology ideas similar to Husserl and Sartre when he found those thinkers works. Phillips calls these ideas `The Phillips Phenomenology' and it forms one of his foundations of looking at the anomalous phenomena in the world. He has two blogs that deeply dig into his phenomenology - one called `What Is Not Able To Not Be Is' http://whatisnotabletonotbeis.blogspot.com/
 and the other is Phillips's main esoteric blog and his first investigations into the worlds Fortean phenomena - it's called `The Heavy Stuff' -
http://theheavystuff.com/ .


Telekinesis witness - 1973 with former roommate at Ohio University, Curt Chaplin - the hallway interview guy, of `The People's Court' for the past 15 years. The telekinesis happened at a pre-selected `power spot' and was during extreme talks of Chaplin and Phillips about Carlos Castaneda's first book - The Teachings of Don Juan. Specifically, Chaplin and Phillips were by far MOST interested in the appendix of the book called `The Structural Analysis'. (Have REVERSE related event with John Flower.)


Full blown Missing Time Incident with Two Others - 1986 with intellectual friend John Flower (so intellectual that he was once an actor for an ad in Rolling Stone that called for a `40's bearded intellectual'). The description of what is remembered of the structure of this `time gap' is worth listening to and thinking about. One great post on The Heavy Stuff Phillips wrote was called `The Missing Space of Missing Time Incidents'. Phillips also may have had a `smaller' missing time incident in the mid-70's also.


Controlled Lucid Dreaming - About a dozen times using Carlos Castaneda's technique of `finding ones hands' in a dream and then setting up a phenomenology there. Phillips describes this reality state as totally unique.


Close Up UFO Sighting - 1991 - Very close sighting with a great background story. Ultimately, this has led Phillips to be a near daily UFO blogger. His highest rated (Alexa) blog is called UFO Disclosure Countdown Clock -
http://ufodisclosurecountdownclock.blogspot.com/
 started in 2007 and put into near daily full gear since 2010 and now with over 450 posts.


But, all of the above - has been fed into the mind of Phillips - which also has had `interesting experiences' beyond the near automatic esoteric phenomenology writing (BTW, most of Phillips's blogs are indeed just that type of approach.) Most of those `outside influences' came as the result of exposure to some of the best thinkers of `un-natural things' - Such as Ouspenski and Gurdjieff, -- when in the mid 1970's - Phillips attended along with J.Flower some `4th Way' Meetings; barely skirting the `higher awareness' cultlike folk they met at the meetings. Nonetheless, Phillips found and finds the awareness teachings of The 4th Way extremely powerful in being aware of mental processes.


In his business career, Phillips has done marketing research, both qualitative and quantitative for some of America's biggest companies and did one-on-one and focus group research, as the moderator and analyst, on new products decades ago - that are used in everyday life today. His `Qualitative' business bio can be found here
http://streetlevelviews.com/5.html.
 Indeed, eventually when Phillips moved into doing Restaurant Trade Area Research as a recognized expert - clients would be making million dollar decisions based on his recommendations.


The ultimate result of all the above is an engaging speaker with possible insights and definite opinions that are often unique. Phillips also has contributed to a new book about to be released in 2012 by Robert Cheatham called Materialization's and Manifestations (UFO Drag Queen) - who has gathered bloggers such as Phillips, Bruce Duensing and Eric Kuersten all of whom can be found on Phillips's Esoteric Blog called `The C Influence' -- Oh, BTW, Lon Strickler also is a contributor to TCI.


Phillips has also appeared on internet radio shows such as L. A. Marzulli's, and the UK show `Now That's Weird', and, is also considering using some of the posts of his blogs as a basis for a solo book project.
=========================================
To the above I should also add a family historical written piece from my wife's side of a `Living Doppleganger' in her family history. My wife also saw one of the `hanging jetliners' in the last few months. ----------- And, my experiences with John Flower includes one on record at the Rhine Institute of a VANISHING object. ------ Oh, I am also a juggler and the object related to juggling.
============================
Friends have always said `You Are Out There, Phillips' - and tonight you get to find out why - so tune in. And, thanks for your visit today.
============================
Lastly I posted this about an hour ago - http://theheavystuff.com/?p=150 - it's the type of mind-exercise I do regularly at The Heavy Stuff, my esoteric blog. The post is titled What Humans Must Forget - To `Know’ Their Human Reality!
------------------------------------------------
Then Again, Lujan Matus may be correct - all perception is structure and  learned - and can be unlearned to see another `structure'.

Phil Larson Declares NO E.T.'s On Earth

Who the F is Phil Larson? Well, some would describe him as a low level policy wonk. OR, you can take his ANAGRAM for his name `Phil Larson' = An Op Shrill. Amazing how these things work out isn't it? Anyway, Phil was responding to `demands' via the internet that the White House agreed to partake as part of openness I would assume. Too bad that NO ONE believes the White House, Congress or even Phil Larson. Anyway, should you care to read the official NON DISCLOSURE by the USA (I mean, come on, many advanced english speaking countries have ALREADY released their data about UFO's in a soft disclosure.) - Phil Larson Becomes `An Op Shrill' To Answer About UFO Disclosure.
=============================
NO, Phil Larson does NOT have a Wikipedia Page.
=============================
However, in the spirit of trying to force the government to do ANYTHING in regards to their UFO actions - here's a petition via the FOIA that is requesting info about the US shooting down a UFO into the Gulf of Mexico Last Month - Oct. 2011.
=============================
Shouldn't they just ask Phil?
=============================
Or, Phil Coreski perhaps - as here is his writings on his MY Space Blog  Orion Contactee's Blog - now we all can wonder, has Phil been implanted? http://www.myspace.com/orionifo/blog?bID=539568311 Get ready for a mind blowing `conversation' about everything - including Nazilike wars on other worlds.
=============================
Abena is his contact BTW.
=============================
Speaking of our inner dreams - did you know that scientists have measured dream CONTENT for the first time by using Controlled Lucid Dreaming And Brain Scanning?. I wonder what Phil's brain would look like while he is `in contact'?
=============================
Finally, for today's MIND BLOWER - comes this dude who says that the Earth does NOT revolve around the Sun.
