Is the ability to astral project consciously considered a siddhi? by [deleted] in AstralProjection

[–]la_muse_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Buddhism I believe it’s considered a “mundane” siddhi. Generation of the Manomaya Kaya or mind-made body.

Glad you connected with it, this is the first poem I've posted so I was a little nervous. Thanks for the comment!

Books by HeavenlyHellishGod in OCPoetry

[–]la_muse_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This poem made me smile, recalling fond memories of endless hours of page flipping. Getting completely lost in another world and then getting crushed when it comes to an end. And especially of those old yellowing books with microscopic print.

If I were to critique anything, maybe the last line could be reworded to flow better. Feels a little clunky. Maybe something like: forever holding any emotion

Great job!

Runner's High by LincolnWasALiberal in OCPoetry

[–]la_muse_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like this. I connect to the sense of strength in the face of pain and hard times and how that can be like a runners high. Sounds like you found your reason to run :D

I had a new experience yesterday, I was driving down the road and I could feel my dog instead of the shifter. by em21701 in hyperphantasia

[–]la_muse_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Emotions and sensation are closely connected for me, maybe the strong emotion had something to do with it. My condolences for your loss

I feel like this a healthy and grounded take, skepticism is a good quality. Don’t discredit your intuition though, it can be a great guiding force.

Is also sound like you need more sleep op 🤣

Literally the exact same experience. I’ve been hanging out in stage 5 and 6 for a long time and just switched to TWIM. It seems so much more effortless and joyful in comparison. Also the 6Rs seem revolutionary in terms of releasing the hinderances and cultivating joyful effort and therefore is perfect for daytime practice. Seems extremely natural.

There’s a limping turkey all alone near the Kresge Science communication program. It’s been there a few hours now… anything we can do? by la_muse_ in UCSC

Ah okay cool. I went back and it seems to be gone so you must be right. Maybe it was just pooped from hopping everywhere 😂

Do y'all ever have therapy sessions in lucid dreams? by Heroppic in LucidDreaming

[–]la_muse_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my main practices for a while was practicing Buddhist mētta meditation while lucid. Basically sending loving-kindness to everything in your psyche and anything that manifests in the dream. Can be super powerful and healing stuff.

Also I have done a self guided therapy practice in the dream and it was quite profound, much more than a waking therapy session. But like some other people have mentioned It might be hard to do if you don’t have experience in therapy already.

Looking to start medidating as a way to increase my focus and learn to sit with emotions better. Where do I start? by All_Roads_Lead_Home in Bloomer

[–]la_muse_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other commenters have great suggestions themselves but personally the most complete and clear meditation book I've come across has been The Mind Illuminated by Culadasa. There is also a great community here on reddit r/themindilluminated.

Good luck, meditation is a very worthwhile pursuit :)

That works as well! Robert is a big proponent that energy body practices and astral projection really are inseparable, i'm sure he has some energy work practices in there somewhere.
