Before I say what I think about all this astral projection stuff, I just want to correct freethinker, hair isn't dead cell it's a kind of protein.

 

From a National Institute of Health site:

 

 

 

Hair Comes From Where?

 

Whether hair is growing out of your head, arm, or ankle, it all rises out of the skin in the same way. Each hair begins at its hair root, a place beneath the skin where <u>cells</u> band together to form keratin. The root is inside a follicle (say: foll-ick-ul), which is like a small tube in the skin. As the hair begins to grow, it pushes up from the root and out of the follicle, through the skin where it can be seen. Tiny blood vessels at the base of every follicle feed the hair root to keep it growing. But once the hair is at the skin's surface, the <u>cells</u> are no longer alive - the hair you see on every part of your body is <u>dead</u>.

Now tell me again. WHERE was I WRONG?

now that's what i wish people would do for me. instead of just blatently telling me that my findings are all wrong and lies, could it be possible to simply give me the evidence that so clearly proves me wrong? or is it too ahrd to follow your very own remarks?

perhaps NDE = astral thing??????

 

shut your nose and month maybe can get you nearly dead....lol (just kidding...)

 

hmm....

as i read something in the news.

about some immature teens playing some very dangerous stuff. (hong kong stuffs)

 

these are said as some supernature stuff on the internet, these people just believe in it.

 

1. hold your breathe

2. someone hit your chest (hm, something to do with the heart). (which makes it worse...)

 

and you will fall into a dream or something....

somebody actually tried it (in school) and were sent to hospital... (almost to nearly dead lol.... i think he failed to make it to NDE...)

 

(IT IS SO DANGEROUS, NO ONE SHOULD TRY IT! IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMANDED...)

Tim, ive doen that, so have a number of other people that i know of. 1 of them went to hospital. Everybody i spoke to about it said they had a dream of which the memory vanished really quick (myself included).

i listen and many times learn from facts. as this particular time, i just learned that astral projection isn't real.

 

 

In which case i have no qarms about recommending you a book. The Art of Dreaming - Carlos Castaneda

 

Best thoughts ive read on the idea of astral travelling.

 

...

 

Well, i couldnt resist could i? Especially after mentioning it in the other thread

 

 

 

p.s. shamans say that the astral is a place of negative emotion and shouldnt be sought after. Watch out!

If it were not for the desire to make sure accurate information is promoted, I would drop this.

Thanks you so much for providing additional information on one of the components of a cell. Yes cells are made up of, amoung other things, proteins.

 

 

BIO 301

Human Physiology

 

Cell Structure & Function

 

Proteins:

 

* about 50 - 60% of the dry mass of a typical cell

* subunit is the amino acid & amino acids are linked by peptide bonds

* 2 functional categories = structural (proteins part of the <u>structure</u> of a cell like those in the cell membrane) & enzymes

http://www.biology.eku.edu/RITCHISO/301notes1.htm

 

Yes protiens such as keratin are an important part of the Hair Cell's makeup. And when the cell dies, as it does once it leaves the folicule, it is the keratin that gives the DEAD HAIR CELL the structure it has.

 

Now any other confusion over this?

CD, I have given you "simple evidence" as to why your beleifs are wrong. What was your response? You don't want to talk about it. Remember the 10,000,000,000 year old light you see every night? It CLEARLY proves that you are WRONG!

 

Or is it too hard to follow MY remarks?

 

When you decide that you want to carry on a rational discussion, that you will be open to whatever data exists and accept verifyable facts when presented to you, change your "beliefs" when they are proven to be wrong. And provide valid support for your "beliefs" if you feel they are right.

 

Discussions like that are two way.

Sound like some form of hyperoxygenation. By taking a deep breath and holding it, you are saturating your lungs with ozygen. This will send a much higher level of ozygen into your bloodstream. Then the sudden impact will force the preassure along the path of least resistance, up the major arteries to the brain.

 

A less violent version is to wrap your arms around and squeeze the chest of the person from behind.

No one should start with Carlos anywhere but at the beginning.

 

The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge

 

Then you can skip around. But you need to have a basis for what he is saying.

 

But if he is going to take the time to read something, I would put Carl Sagan's Demon Haunted World at the very top. I think it might even deal directly with RV and AP. If not, it will in something very close.

 

And he would learn so much more factual info than with Carlos.

 

Carlos could drag CD down a path for years.

actually, freethinker, if you go back to the thread "evolution is junk science secular religion" i gave you an answer to your light question, it does NOT rpove that i am wrong.

I f you want to try this, you can also take instead of LSD some psilos (hallucinating mushrooms).

 

The empirical evidence tells me that CD has already discovered these mushrooms. I suspect he has a never ending supply.

CD 27, I just remebered a thing I think it interests you: the dream machine. The first site I found explaining what it is (don't have much time now):

http://www.davidwoodard.com/

 

essentially it is a machine that sends light in acertain frequency (similar to the ones your brain has when you are dreaming) and then you enter in a lucid dreaming state. I always wanted to bulid one, but never took the time to search an 72 turns/minute LP-player for which I would be able to find the plans.

If you look it up on the net and find a good link, post it to me as well. Thanks

Yeah that's a great book.

 

 

Actually, I would recommend taking FT's advice CD. Carlos is pure fiction..... i thought and now think

 

 

p.s. thx for link ft
