Gawd, Richard, are you sure salyavin posted that to me?! I missed that bit.
Benefit of scanning (-:
I'm blaming it on the jyotish chart of FFL. Ooo, I'd love someone to do a
jyotish chart of The Peak.

Troll - A person who sends duplicitous messages to get angry responses.
For example, posting to a good looking meditator gal on a spiritual discussion
a cartoon of Lord Buddha saying "Try not to be a cunt."

Salyavin, you posted a comment with the c word in it and you called Richard
a crude name. How is my reading of those events obscured? And those were
expressions of your opinion, not reality. I've expressed my opinions about
Richard before. I recognize that he posts a lot and repeats a lot. BUT, I don't
find the tone of his posts malicious. imo that's the essence of trollness.
You are funny. He doesn't engage, he has no opinion that he wants to talk
about, he comes here just to piss people off, what else do you need to know?
It's called trolling. Annoying people for your own amusement. If it makes him
happy I'm happy to ignore him.
What I did do yesterday was point out how much he stands out now that the
others have gone. I shall go back to ignoring him and he'll either leave or die
of boredom by the end of the week. Actually, I don't suppose he will, he wants
to piss in the well until no one else wants to visit this place. Some sort of
childish last-man-standing sort of thing. Good luck to him if that's how he
wants to waste his life.
He should join Jim's group and see if he can rediscover his personality
before it's too late. But actually conversing requires thinking and that takes
effort. I doubt he'll bother.

OMG, Richard, what happened to salyavin? He used to sound pretty even

What is it that obscures your view of reality Share? Even if you randomly
read only 1% of Willy's posts you'll know he is a pointless troll whose only
"purpose" here is to annoy people. How mature do you think that is?
This why he hasn't gone to play on Jim's site, because he's got nothing to
say that isn't deliberately aggravating to someone, so who would want him?
Unless Jim is playing a "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" game, he isn't
going to want 300 dumb and predictable posts littering the place up every
week. So we're stuck with him until someone starts a "say nothing as many
times as you like" site. 10 years he's been doing it. At least!
The longer he stays as the only troll here the stupider he is going to look,
so he's welcome to waste his life nagging at me, it bothers me not one jot.

Maybe cuz I didn't sit up in bed when I did it? And I forgot to do it this
morning. Nonetheless, will soldier on, thanks again for posting.

Thetechnique may not work for just anyone. Apparently MMY dropped using this
technique himself for some reason, but I found it quite enjoyable.
People usually think thoughts just before going to sleep but quite often they
are just random thinking without any direction.
Until I was taught the "Night Technique" by Satyanand, I used another
technique that I developed myself - you simply think of something positive to
look forward to the next day and then slip into sleep.
It works too, but not as well. There is something about the directed sound
vibration than is a subtle relaxing feeling with the bija mantra - Laya Yoga
while you sleep.

So last night I had a lucid experience while dreaming (it's happened a few
times before - always involuntary as I've never bothered to follow the
"techniques" recommended by devotees of this perception). At least I assume it
was a lucid-dream experience - I suppose one could have a normal dream which
included the false thought that one was lucid when in fact one wasn't (if you
can follow that explanation). What's more, I woke up (for real), mused about
the dream for a minute, then fell asleep again and immediately went back into
the same dream landscape in the same self-conscious,lucid state. Now I'd heard
that when in a lucid dream you can alter the "dreamscape" to suit yourself. So
you might find it amusing to flip over into being a Zero pilot on a kamikaze
mission and diving into the Golden Dome in Fairfield. Whatever floats your
boat. Anyway, though I was lucidly self-aware that I was indeed dreaming I
couldn't change the story narration unfolding before me so just left the dream
to run its course while absorbing the novel experience. My question is: is
there some trick to getting the dream to change to suit your whim or is it a
case of practice makes perfect? Or maybe most lucid dreams are like mine? Or
maybe my will power is feeble compared with my imaginative power and others
have a more dominant will?
>
Thetrick is to practice a Laya Yoga technique we learned from Satyanand:
When you are ready for sleep you just sit up in bed and then let your bija
mantra rest at the heart chakra for a few minutes. That way, the subtle
currents from your Istadevata will permeate your entire being while you sleep.
For example, my Istadevata is Saraswati, the Goddess of Learning, so by
resting the bija portion of her mantra at the heart chakra, my intelligence
will grow by leaps and bounds, right while I'm sleeping.
Then, when you awaken in the morning you will feel refreshed and full of
energy and knowledge. It's that simple!
>
Anyonehad a similar experience?
>
Yes.A lucid dream is a dream in which the sleeper is aware that he or she is
dreaming. From what I've read, the phenomenon of lucid dreaming has been well
established by scientific research, so its existence is well established.
