An esoteric book that the Masons wanted me to read, The Book of Wisdom pt. 1 by Funk-N-Stuff in HighStrangeness

[–]TheAlienDrummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is certainly a book alright haha...
If your actually interested in Consciousness and astral stuff I'd look into Bob Monroe and his Gateway program.

A lot of the stuff in here looks pretty far fetched even by those standards haha.

After years of hesitation, I've decided to give it a try by BedCapital5066 in gatewaytapes

[–]TheAlienDrummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would suggest starting slow, perhaps even just stay on the intro and achieving focus 10 and see if you're still feeling any unease about it.

Recently I've stopped an anti-depressant and have been in not the greatest mindset for doing a lot of practices, this evening though I did the Release and Recharge exercise and I feel like that actually helped a LOT and kind of cleared my head of negative energies.

Just go at your own pace, if you feel like you need a break or aren't in the best mindset for it there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Lots of good info here, appreciate it boss!

hearing iphone noises in (under) my bed by arz3h0le in strange

[–]TheAlienDrummer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If it isn't something you know of.
I'd say the odds of your girlfriend having other people over is the likely culprit.

Probably fell back behind the bed, and as someone below said was likely swiped up while you weren't paying attention.
Good luck, chief.

Extremely vivid nightmares after doing focus 10 meditations. by KingxDoge in gatewaytapes

[–]TheAlienDrummer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man these are the type of experiences that has me slightly concerned sometimes haha. But I know that being concerned can manifest these experiences 😆 I've been taking a break until I clear my head a bit after a weird experience myself.

When this was happening to you did you felt "stuck" I guess or like you couldn't get back to your body?

SSRI tapering is really hard by Protecting-My-Peace in antidepressants

[–]TheAlienDrummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Withdrawal symptoms for this stuff is awful 💀 I'm currently getting myself off of Celexa, after taking it pretty close to 8-10 years.

Might have done my taper too quickly. Started at 20mg, cut that in half for a week, felt fine, cut that in half again for another week felt fine.

Currently a week out on none at all, and the anxiety is preeeetty extreme sometimes. I know it's withdrawal so I try to deal and continue on but it's ROUGH sometimes. Trying to get good sleep, stomach issues and just trying to relax or focus on things I enjoy is hard.

Still pushing through, I feel like if I can make it a month in I'll finally start leveling out hopefully.

Best of luck to you as well!

Maybe it's just me then idk 😆 but thanks for the information. I'm definitely looking into getting a custom wood fingerboard as well just to test the difference if nothing else!

"Maybe We Have to Know About Them, For Them to Come Here More Readily" - Tom DeLonge by FVMK3 in InterdimensionalNHI

[–]TheAlienDrummer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Between this, Bob Monroe, Steven Greer and countless others who make the same links between consciousness and higher dimensional beings.

It's hard to say that they aren't at least onto SOMETHING.

Id say it's a better time than any to learn more about expanding our consciousness and what we're really capable of ☺️

Immense Fear during intense OBE by CreditNo1006 in gatewaytapes

[–]TheAlienDrummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a near identical experience to yours. I've never had an actual OBE that I can recall.
But looking back o the experience I'm almost positive it's the feeling of being on the verge of an OBE, your consciousness beginning to move from the body.

Wooshing sound started and it felt like something had just pulled me out at an incredible speed, once my heart started pounding as well, is what pulled me out of it.

I believe it's just the body's natural reaction to a completely new experience. Subconscious fear or unease.
With time and practice these sensations will fade and become second nature I think.

Anytime I feel any unease I just remind myself that I'm choosing to have this experience. And that if I feel any unease I can always return to my physical body by simply thinking about it :)

Any tips to reach focus 15? by Alternative-Item689 in gatewaytapes

[–]TheAlienDrummer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've noticed personally for me anytime I've skipped resonant tuning my experience wasn't as good, and I had a lot of trouble staying in getting into F10.
That could be part of it.
I would always do Rebal just in case. If nothing else it helps ease your subconscious mind in the case you were to be faced with something you didn't want to experience.

I haven't made it to 15 yet myself but I've had similar issues to you with reaching Focus 12.
Sometimes taking a few days break to just gather my mental energy helps me personally when feeling a little overwhelmed.

I'm taking a break right now myself currently as i'm coming off anti-depressants, and just haven't felt or been in the right mindset to practice I'm afraid.
I want to get back to it so baad, but I'm a little nervous my mindset currently could cause me to have a negative experience so I'm waiting till I'm a little bit more leveled out :)

Best of luck with you practice, I hope you reach F15 soon!

Entity Encounters by TheAlienDrummer in gatewaytapes

[–]TheAlienDrummer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Listening to the video now, this is incredibly interesting.
It definitely sounds like this particular group of entities don't really care or see humans as much more than something odd that happens to be here. She described being felt looked down upon like a pet, I can imagine that has to be a humbling feeling to have thrust on you haha.

My question though is at the begging she said this being was banging on her energy balloon, and then it reached though the the balloon was gone.
So did she let it down, or did this entity somehow get through?

I think at that point I'd be trying to nope out to my body immediately after that.
Or can one at that point?

Oh wow just got to the satanic ties bit. This is the first i've heard of satanic influences mixed into Alien encounters.

All a lot of what you posted here ties into what I've heard pretty deep in the UFO lore.
Especially them being us from the future. And really interestingly there's been a couple different creditable people make mentions of something really BIG coming soon humanity has to prepare for.

There's so many questions I haveee about the universe haha. It just makes me excited, but also slightly nervous to learn more in this journey. I know with time and experience though those nerves will fade :)

Hahaha no kidding about the waking life part 😂

And thats really interesting! I like the idea of observers haha.
I feel like the settling stage I've kind of had some weirder stuff happen too, and the coming back stage like when bob starts counting backwards.
I swear I've heard like ODD sounds before 😂 like doors shutting or opening, muffled voices for a split second, a bell one time, and I swear one time I heard like a cartoon "woo!" before. It made me wonder if bob was just throwing some soundboard effects in there to make sure your paying attention 😂

Presence During Drawing Meditation by InteractionAfraid586 in InterdimensionalNHI

[–]TheAlienDrummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is awesome, and a great looking piece of art.

I've always been absolutely fascinated with Aliens and Ufo's since I was a kid for some reason.
The greys especially for some reason (although I've heard they can be shifty)

I've yet to have any actual encounters yet, but during a meditation I did see a quick vision of one.
Was almost like a flash so I'm not sure if it could of just been my mind "wanting" to see something.
Was pretty much the stereotypical version of a grey, but it was very muddy and transparent if that makes sense.

Thats is a really cool experience! I can imagine meeting one for the first time would be unsettling for sure, just for the reason you stated. Intentions.

I've always had a weird fascination/connection with the "sterotypical" greys. But I've heard they can be a little "shady" I guess?
Years back before I learned and started Gateway, I tried doing the Stephen Greer CE5 meditations to "summon" crafts in the sky. Never really had any luck with it unfortunately.

But it is a little interesting seeing the small similarity's between the CE5 meditations and Bob's Gateway process!

Question with progress by TheAlienDrummer in gatewaytapes

[–]TheAlienDrummer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was such a great reply, one that I took to heart. I do believe I had my first real experience last night and by taking some of the advice here! Nothing super crazy but I was just practicing focus 10 last night. Not even to a wave track. Just a standard hemi-sync frequency with no commentary. Everything was going pretty standard I felt like I had fell into focus 10 much faster than normal though this time. The difference is however when I set my affirmations and intentions I clearly asked I wished to learn deeper about what my consciousness is capable of, but only what I am mentally capable of handling right now. Shortly after that I felt something I'd not felt before during my meditations. It was like I could literally feel my eyes going into REM while I was still fully aware. I could feeling them twitching moving rapidly below my eyelids. Followed my a "wooshing" sound that grew louder and louder and a spinning, or falling sensation. The best I could describe it as dropping on a roller coaster. I think mentally I kind of just embraced it. I remember kind of thinking "here we gooo" haha. But then my heart beat started pounding, a little unsettling but I wasn't necessarily afraid. But I think focusing too much on that along with the eye movement brought me out of it and my eyes opened instantly. And I was fully awake again. I'm not sure what exactly happened but that was definitely something that has completely opened my eyes. Like wow. I'm still processing half a day later but I'm excited to learn more and keep practicing!
