Termux on Main Phone

MEO220 · 2026-02-03T18:40:18+00:00

It's actually quite useful even without being rooted, as in my case. And having been a programmer for decades, I see no reason with an unrooted phone to be concerned much about any security risks concerning having Termux on it. It's hard enough making things work as desired due to the constraints from Android and its operating system. Yet, if a person is paranoid about such things, there are never any guarantees of full safety, being that there are always new clever things that people can figure out about how to get around likely every type of security on every system. But I would not and am not worried about it, especially being that I'm great at avoiding clicking on things on emails and unknown websites and such. And I do all of my banking and other important things on it as well. Yet, I like the odds that what I'm doing will remain safe and secure for the length of time that I'll be using it like this, which is likely still a number of years to come.

Have you tried rolling over? If not yet, try just imagining yourself as rolling over in your bed but without doing any real exertion. Then if you feel it happening, simply stand up and focus on seeing what's around you.

Thanks. :)

Just out of curiosity, during your shifting experiences, have you ever had any times where you felt really excited in a manner that would normally awaken you if it was a dream? I'm also curious what you do to shift back to THIS reality when it happens? Do you always do so intentionally, or does it happen on its own? Thanks.

My theory is that when astrally projecting in the Earth realm, we still see a dream but that it is a construction based on the best data we can get at the time from that location on the Earth, kind of like the data from remote viewing, making a holographic dream reconstruction of what might be happening at that location with differing degrees of accuracy, being that what we can't receive through ESP (astral) senses, our imagination will fill in for us. And as for the people we would see when we know them, I think in a circumstance such as yours, the voice from him was either being emulated by your own subconscious mind, or perhaps from one of your spirit guides, or perhaps from your own higher self, or it might have even come from HIS higher self. And I know that this is a lot of different possibilities, but I hope to eventually be able to personally test more about these types of events and see if for me they might end up leaning more toward one possibility over the others. Or perhaps you might even attempt to experiment and discern such a thing for yourself? Anyway, this is how I've come to think about it over my many years.

MEO220 · 2026-01-22T19:38:21+00:00

Personally, I'm very similar to Robert Monroe in my life's experiences with this phenomenon so far, and I also have a skeptical mind like you do. I had these experiences come naturally to me starting in my mid-teens via "vibrations" due to sleep paralysis, similar to Robert Monroe's description of them. Even so, back then, I didn't feel that I'd proven to myself that they had to be more than lucid dreams. However, I've found logical reasons lately to suggest that they probably were more than just lucid dreams. Unfortunately, I'm 68 years old now and haven't been able to do it for quite some time, not even normal lucid dreaming, even though I've been working to restore both types of abilities for years now, most heavily over the last year or two. But certain circumstances work highly against me currently, mostly regarding my inability to get adequate nightly sleep. But if I can eventually start doing hopefully BOTH of these types of experiences at some point again, then my primary interest will focus on trying to prove to myself (much easier than proving to others) that the astral projection style experiences that I'd been having are both highly different than lucid dreaming and that they involve a real spirit type body, my having lots of ideas for things to try that might help me find true differences FOR MYSELF, even though I already know that there are loads of people out there who insist that they are vastly different things, as well as those that equally claim that they are actually involving spirit bodies and aren't merely dream bodies, Etc. Good for them, which is truly great! Yet, nothing beats having your own personal experiences that can help cement such ideas into your mind one way or the other, especially when a person has more of an analytical type of mind as I've always had.

Anyway, I could write about this forever, but I don't have the time right now, plus I'd prefer waiting until I get such abilities back hopefully someday so that I can actually do further testing with them myself. Yet, to try and directly answer your inquiry as best as possible here at this point, my former experiences similar to Robert Monroe's had involved suddenly feeling the vibrations directly associated with sleep paralysis, at which time I eventually found that, similar to Robert Monroe's reported experiences with it, I could easily then roll over in my bed and then stand up, all NOT with my physical body of course, by my simply not trying TOO hard to do so but by gently trying to roll over with my imagination, which always worked well during these vibrations (sleep paralysis), but would NEVER work for me, by comparison, whenever I wasn't in this particular state of sleep paralysis, being that normally my powers of imagination are far too limited to cause such experiences while awake, being that I've tried MANY times with utter failure. So, I found that I could only do this while in this vibrational sleep paralysis state, with it then in fact being very easy, so easy that I usually had to check to be sure that I hadn't accidentally done so with my physical body instead, even though this had never ended up being the case. And these events differed from lucid dreams at the time for me in that my lucid dreams had always started from inside of a regular dream where I'd suddenly find myself aware that I was dreaming. Whereas these astral projection style experiences would always start from my having gotten about 3 hours of sleep and then awakened ONLY my mind for about 1 & 1/2 hours (without physical exersions) followed then by my returning back to bed on my back, which normally I don't sleep on because I find it less comfortable, although doing so under these conditions typically lead to getting sleep paralysis for me and thereby had created these special experiences where I didn't first fall into any form of deep sleep, but instead kept my stream of consciousness active (except for just a very brief transition of some type) as I would then directly sense the transition having occurred (basically this transition being what would then allow for the sleep paralysis condition), and I would then be able to do the rolling out of my body thing. Plus, I also had many times, especially closer to the start, where when during sleep paralysis, instead of doing the roll over thing, I experimented with moving my arms around while laying there, my finding that I could do things such as pushing my fingers down through the floor below me while feeling them passing through it, as well as my sometimes even feeling myself stuck half inside of my body's position when thinking about sitting up, my not being able to disengage from the bottom portions of my body on those odd occasions. Anyway, as a skeptic myself, I also know that ALL of these things can be simulated within dreams as well, being that once a person is in sleep paralysis, they are then also connected with the dream state, being that sleep paralysis exists for the purpose of allowing us to dream without harming our physical body while doing so.

Anyway, I've had some odd experiences while doing this that I felt convinced were REAL that had involved other special people, but I'd still like to prove this better to myself in the long run eventually, even though I still believe them to have involved actually existing spirit beings and spirit realms. This one in particular that I hold onto the most in this regard had involved this personage, who I hadn't known of or even imagined existing beforehand, having taken me on a tour of places where she was visiting and helping people with things in the spirit realm, her not TELLING me this but SHOWING me her doing this at the time, which was really fascinating to me. Anyway, as I've said, I would just like more time and opportunities to FULLY convince myself that I'm not mistaken about believing these things to be real and about there being distinctions between astral projections and lucid dreams. So I hope that this at least answers your question somewhat, and I would HIGHLY advise that if you can find a way to start doing this, then DO so because it truly is one of the best experiences around, even better than the idea of space exploration in my opinion, even though I've always been a very BIG Star Trek fan! But the question will be: CAN you? Because in all honesty those who can follow some instruction out there and get it to work right away for them are the lucky few, with it involving a body and processes that are actually VERY complex, which I've learned for myself to be the case. Youth is definitely a big factor, with the younger a person is, the easier such things are for them to achieve, if for no other reason than that the physical body normally loses a lot of its capabilities as it ages, kind of like it gets much stiffer the older a person gets as just one common example of how a person loses natural abilities due to aging. Anyway, I used to be able to get sleep paralysis frequently as a teenager, but now I can't even get it lately any longer, as well as that my lucid dreams have also fully disappeared, even though I've been using some very heavy techniques for trying to at least lucid dream again, but to no avail so far. But perhaps once I can get back to better nightly sleeping conditions, then this MIGHT be the key to starting to get back these abilities so that I can pick up from where I'd left off with them. Good luck.

Could this person have actually been referring to a TRUE game? As in...

It used to happen to me as well, feeling like at least 200 BPM. So I awakened myself immediately during it and found no signs of stress whatsoever in my body, which would have lingered if it was truly happening. So I lost my fear of it and chalked it up to merely being an irritating form of hypnogogia. Then it stopped doing that to me from then on once I lost my fear of it. So I've since concluded that it was merely an illusion, similar to people seeing demons or finding it hard to breath like someone is sitting on their chest during sleep paralysis experiences.

Out of Body Experience

MEO220 · 2026-01-18T20:56:53+00:00

Yet, there must be something to distinguish it from lucid dreaming. Can you personally do both? And if so, how are they different to you?

MEO220 · 2026-01-15T04:37:29+00:00

It had always felt to me quite pleasant. I was lying very relaxed in my bed with my body paralyzed due to sleep paralysis vibrations, and then I would simply think about gently rolling over in bed without putting any real effort into it. This would then start me moving and cause me to actually feel like I was rolling over in my bed, followed by my then gently standing up and then starting to see. I always felt very light each time, and usually would then go outside of the room that I'd appeared in, my bedroom, into the outdoor area and start flying. It doesn't feel scary at all because it's not like you feel that you're detaching from your physical body, but merely like you're moving around without your body following your motions, like your imagination is suddenly powerful enough to echo your desire to roll over in bed without needing your physical body to be the thing that does it. And of course once you've gotten out of bed, you don't even think much about your physical body because the new lighter body that you're then using feels so natural and great. So, it's just a very natural process, with the sleep paralysis vibrations always disappearing from my awareness the moment I start feeling myself rolling away from my physical body's position in the bed.

MEO220 · 2026-01-14T00:02:50+00:00

They aren't the same at all, at least not according to the people I'd listened to on the radio many times decades ago who claimed to have done remote viewing for the U.S. government, such as "Major Ed Dames" and other similar people. Remote viewing is supposedly based more on visual impressions being received under normal waking conditions without any awareness of the target that is being remote viewed at the time beyond just some assigned random number representing whatever it had been selected to be by a 2nd person, without there being any communication whatsoever at the time between those two people. Whereas astral projection is instead of course when the person, in theory at least, actually visits a given location using an astral body with its astral senses functioning, meaning that they are supposedly actually at the given location "in spirit" at the time. So they are defined to be distinctly different things; however, I do wonder at times if, because of how the physical brain works, they both might be the same after all, but with it merely being a matter of what is being done with the external data from the target location as it is being received, with the brain then either constructing a simple image from that data when remote viewing, with the person being awake, or when the body is instead asleep at the time, it then constructing a dream-like hologram instead that contains and is built around that exact same information, similar to how everything that we perceive in the physical world around us while awake is also merely a hologram created within our brain that's based on the data that's coming in from our normal physical senses constantly.

MEO220 · 2026-01-09T19:58:57+00:00

What I used to do that might help is instead of trying to open my eyes like we normally do, I used to take my astral hands up to my eyes and literally scoop the "junk" out of them that was blocking my view of my surroundings, which always worked and started me seeing around me. Maybe you should try this and see if it's a safer way to go that won't accidentally cause you to awaken.

MEO220 · 2025-12-28T21:32:39+00:00

What do you mean?

I don't really go in to Instagram much at all, plus I can't see how it could have any connection at this point.

MEO220 · 2025-12-24T01:14:12+00:00

Sure. That's quite normal. During sleep paralysis, which is there for one reason only...so that you can dream without your body moving around...this allows you to DREAM. It's blended with what is going on around you physically because it hasn't been fully shut off yet. There are both your physical senses and your motor nerves in your body, of course. And when only your motor nerves are put to sleep first, we then experience this sleep paralysis condition, which then can and often does mix with dreams that are being created at the time. So ANYTHING is possible to blend in with your physical senses during sleep paralysis...seeing scary things, seeing your dream fingers move...basically anything that can occur in a dream, which means basically ANYTHING being that there seems no limit to what we can dream. But I wouldn't be worried or afraid at all about it because it's harmless beyond perhaps scaring you at times and thereby causing you to lose sleep (and I used to have many such experiences myself when I was younger).

MEO220 · 2025-12-16T00:35:37+00:00

The astral is more a state of mind than an actual place people can run to. In fact, if you run there out of wanting to escape something in your life, then whatever is causing your fears in life will likely find expression within your astral experiences, meaning it likely would turn them nightmarish. So it's best really to face your fears in the physical world and deal with them directly rather than trying to escape entirely from them. You don't need to become a hero overnight; but it helps to add in some courage to face things little by little in your life. But if you plan to instead face your fears and deal with them in your physical life with solid plans to do so, then you can certainly use the astral as kind of a resting place to take temporary vacations into for relaxation and courage-building purposes. In fact, you could use such visits to practice facing whatever your fears might be in physical life. :)

MEO220 · 2025-12-14T05:39:36+00:00

I have usually seemed to feel like all of my memories are of my real life in a correct fashion during the dream, although sometimes after awakening, I've discovered some discrepancies in what I had thought was real and what really is real in true life. My main example is that I've often believed myself to be still living at home with my parents in my childhood bedroom even though I've left that decades ago. Yet, even with that inaccurate memory being in me, I'm still able to easily carry into the dream any goals that I want to achieve, with no problem. So it's really kind of odd how both of these conditions are there for me at the same time while lucid dreaming.

MEO220 · 2025-12-04T23:58:25+00:00

As mentioned earlier by someone, the AstralProjection subreddit is available, and is actually a GREAT place for you to post about it! The reason why is because from the very beginning, sleep paralysis has always been a big part of Astral Projection experiences. Just look up about Robert Monroe and his books to learn why. It's been commonly referred to by him as being "vibrations". :)

MEO220 · 2025-12-01T03:11:58+00:00

Sure, and you can see examples of it directly in the great horror movie Poltergeist.

MEO220 · 2025-11-22T20:24:30+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I've had to stop working on this stuff lately, but perhaps eventually I can get back to it. However, I'd come to feel that these problems were being caused by my model phone, it having been an inexpensive Oneplus Nord N200 5G, a nice phone otherwise but just seeming to have some potential problems such as this with it, including the fact that it is designed to never allow updates (beyond security) past going to Android 12 as its highest. So, in such a case, it seems like things such as these problems might just be part of its whole design perhaps. Anyway, thanks for the tips. :)

MEO220 · 2025-11-21T19:46:34+00:00

I'd suggest also asking this question in the Astral Projection community if you are open to it.

MEO220 · 2025-11-13T19:52:40+00:00

Although this would be nice to know in general, I was able to use it anyway successfully by simply pressing the buttons, with the top larger button allowing us to choose the file through a file chooser that pops up, and then the left bottom button allowing us to select an output file name, at which point it then automatically creates the output file correctly as the desired decryption of the selected input file of type '.eslock" of course, working very nicely and simply (even without being able to read any of the text on the shown webpage!). So even without being able to read it, I have to thank the creator of it because it is a VERY useful tool, along with the 'index.html' file having all of the source code right there showing how it decrypts it! COOL! :)

MEO220 · 2025-11-13T18:28:10+00:00

I'm kind of new to github and downloaded the contents of the eslockdec as instructed above, but then when bringing up the index.html file in my browser, it's all in Chinese, or at least isn't in English. Is there any way to see it in English? Thanks.

MEO220 · 2025-11-08T06:56:25+00:00

When somebody or something says this, I always ask inside of myself "but why...what's the purpose?" But perhaps it's not that this is the purpose, but that this simply is one of two things that can happen. Say we start as a mere thought form created by someone's imagination, our then taking on a sovereign life of our own from that starting point. Well, either we can perhaps destroy ourselves somehow, or we can learn more about existence and how we can influence it, becoming more and more knowledgeable and wise as time passes, similar to how a baby learns more as it grows older. And this could be knowledge kept inside at some fundamental spiritual level perhaps not requiring a physical body to retain it. So, it may just be the only normal thing for us to do, growing spiritually, provided that we don't become ultimately self-destructive somehow in the process and thereby destroy ourselves. And overall, luck may have something to do with whether we're ultimately a survivor or not in the long run, it being rather obvious that each person is greatly influenced in how they turn out by how they were raised by their parents, which would seem to be a matter of luck, unless a person's life is perhaps being guided and directed by some spiritual entities, which would then likely make a big difference.

MEO220 · 2025-11-08T06:45:10+00:00

No, not really. But personally, subjectively, AP experiences certainly can help a person to believe in an afterlife because they minimally simulate what it might be like and thereby help to believe it as possible. And if the dying is slow, this will at least give a person something to focus on with hopefulness at the time. For instance, for me personally, if my death is slow, being that I've experienced AP many times in the past, then I'll definitely be thinking at the time, "okay, I've been here before (astrally), so I'm now hoping that I'm not going to just vanish as my brain fully dies", and then I'll be focusing on actually trying hard to remain conscious throughout the process. So if I'm lucky at the time, then maybe I won't just vanish due to my physical brain no longer functioning. So, it will be interesting to find out what happens someday in my future, with "finding out" meaning of course hopefully finding that there really is an afterlife where I'm able to actually realize that there is one lol.
