"When you look out of your eyes at nature happening out there, you're looking at you. That's the real you. The you that goes out of itself." -Alan Watts
I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness.
As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clear headed science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about atoms this much: There is no matter as such.

It might not be directed totally to PK.. but its something about it ^^ Because sometimes.. you might meet people around you o.o who say you shouldnt do these stuff and be afraid of God and stuff.. and that this aint normal.. well.. Magneto's reply is ^^
Magneto: Are you a God-fearing man, Senator? That is such a strange phrase. I've always thought of God as a teacher; a bringer of light, wisdom, and understanding. You see, I think what you really fear is me. Me and my kind. The Brotherhood of Mutants. Oh, it's not so surprising really. Mankind has always feared what it doesn't understand. Well, don't fear God, Senator, and certainly don't fear me. Not any more.

You, the real you, which is creating your body and judging every day - that is the Infinite Universe itself.
Not quite pk-related, but still good in my opinion:
We are always seeking our opposite, whether we know it or not. When we discover what that is we can dissolve our arrogance.
Many people believe that they were made by their parents: 'I didn't ask to be born.' they cry. This is completely wrong. Please try to remember when your were five. If you try then you will remember that this memory had no beginning. It seems as if you can remember living infinitely; that your life didn't begin when you were born but continues without limit.
Yoga breathing control is practiced to influence our thinking. The lungs correspond to our fore brain and can influence our consciousness.

You simply empty your mind and clear your consciousness. Eliminate yourself of ego and self-absorption. When you are completely purged of awareness of the small self, of identifying with the personality, you are free to move with the natural rhythm of the universe. You are no longer weighted down with self-concern and limiting beliefs. You are then able to utilize the electro-magnetic wave energy that moves between the earth and the sun, moon, planets and all the heavenly bodies in the universe.

"A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty." Albert Einstein ^^

I'd say something cliche about life being short, but that's not my kind of thing. I just want to go ahead and enjoy life, without paying too much attention to the time. - Fang
"i think working with these balls (lol biggrin) has been having something to do with these sort of things. the moment when i start noticing conscious rolling with these babies has seemed to still be coming. but this focus seems to be affecting other aspects of my experience as well" FridgeNatious
*F^CK Yeah! *
"My mind seems a bit more congruent and less wavy or scattered. Doubt, uncertainty and confusion really hurts my ability to do TK, and now i don't feel so, powerless for lack of a better word."

"it I was entirely relaxed relax.gif and lost consciousness and all I remember is my body giving a jolt from the feeling of falling and thinking i was falling off the log. to my surprise I remained perfectly centered where I was. The sensation of falling wasn't from moving around on the log but from pulling back from a near obe out of fear."

"In this silence i created in my mind, i realized for a moment, how this programming puts up a shroud, in which your mind then puts on a play, based around socially accepted truths, experiences and beliefs, perpetrated by the ego. I realized this because when silence came, the shroud came down, and there was only me left on stage. I felt a bit empty, drained and alone. After a few minutes sitting in this uncomfortable silence, i started to feel a little better, and a small ray of light began to shine in. Why? Because i had nothing left to focus on. Nothing, other then myself. I had given away my time and energy and space and reputation and even honor if you will, to all these other people in that play. I kept little positive energy for myself, just enough to survive, but hoarded all the negative, because giving that away was bad, and it would make them turn against me. Despite the fact they had no problem dumping theirs on me." NOX
Beautifully articulated,
