That's the list I made of some books I'd gathered. I've scrounged up about another 100 or so sense then; I'd intended on writing a short review of each one and post it on here, but I've been so preocuppied with music that I didn't have time. I did a sort of rundown of material from "THE UFO-NAUTS (Hans Holzer) 1976" and was actually sort of disturbed by how much material in the book was similar (if not identical) to things within my own experiences- especially because some of it has never appeared in film/TV fiction to my knowledge.
Anyway, if I'm to write some rundowns of these other books (not really reviews, but more cliff note versions) will people on here read it and make use of it? I actually haven't read much of this material besides Daniel Cohen monster books that were in the public library when I was really young; so I really need to force myself to read these.

Some guy recommended this site on 420chan's /lit/ board. I haven't had the chance to really check it out. Seems pretty good, though.

Alright /x/!

I'm back, here to report on progress.
I've had more success not focusing on slowing my heartrate and instead on the visualization of energy flowing into my body than the focusing on slowing down my heartrate and thinking of floating above my body.

I am aiming to meditate to "find my center," or something like that. So far, all I have experienced include
1. a sort of feeling where I don't feel like I'm in my body anymore, but rather inside it, and the skin are the walls, or something like that.

2. when I visualize energy flowing into me and focus on nothing else, I get prickly feelings all over my body, except for my neck, above, and my torso. Weird, huh? Yeah I don't know either wtf went on, but I'll keep posting updates as things change.

Meditation style hasn't changed. Lights off, drapes closed, door closed, eyes shut, in mah bed before nappies, preferably naked (I don't know if that helps or not, but I usually sleep so). What? Doesn't sleeping naked feel relaxing too? What the fuck were you thinking about, /x/?! Douche. Heh, now that you are sick of my humor, I think i'll sign off.

Till next time!

You sound like this girl i know. Her names Melody.

What type (mokuso, zen, yuga) of meditation(s) are you practicing?

okay, when i said "this weekend" i actually meant thanksgiving holiday...

I will investigate paranormal things around my town. There's a lot of abandoned buildings here, will visit at night and take spooky pictures, anyone want?

>>6335

As and when, just glad for the chance to read it.

>>6336

Do want, I've always been one for urban exploration, probably explains my unquenchable thirst for free running...

>>6318
I see. I've considered logging my dreams, but most are unrelated, some I just don't want to remember, and it probably wouldn't help since some things just come to me and I only get the familiarity that I dreamed about the scene prior on rare occasions. It'd be epic if I could trigger this on command, but I doubt that's gonna happen in my lifetime, if ever.

>>6307
Write down your feelings when these things happen, in a journal or something.
That's how I'm honing my precognition skills. What I'm doing is figuring out the difference between daydreams and random precognitions. Then I can put myself into the precognitive state and consciously tell the future (however corny that sounds, it's true.)

To add some more to this:
Yesterday, I was browsing a site where people talk about comics. One person asked what everybody's normal superpowers were, the sort of thing they really had but seemed special.

One person said that his girlfriend could accurately predict what song would come next on the radio/playlist.

>>6300
Op here.
I guess you're right, seemed very real at that moment but sometimes dreams seem very real too.

>>6305
I've been there OP. I get the thing you described in your first paragraph occasionally, but I usually dream about it first. I'm starting to get it more often and in the day time too, w/o dreaming it ahead...weird. I started the thread with Rod Serling as the pic btw, so check that out if think we're any similar.

Sorry to say, never had anything you described but it's probably like >>6300 said.

>>6300
sometimes when im falling asleep, ill feel like im tripping on something and then jerk or some thing, is that what you mean?
not op btw

"When I was a child I lived in a rented two-floor house. Both my parents worked so I was often alone when I came home from school. One early evening when I came home the house was still dark. I called out, “Mum?” and heard a voice say “Yeeeeees?” from upstairs. I called her again, and again got the same “Yeeeeees?” reply. I felt she was calling me and climbed up the stairs.

When I reached the first floor I called her once more and the voice “Yeeeeees?” came from the furthest room. I felt both uneasy and a strong urge to see my mother and started to walk towards the room. But just that moment I heard the front door downstairs open and my mother come in, carrying a lot of shopping bags. ‘Samuel (my name), are you home?” My mother called in a cheery voice. Hearing her voice made me feel instantly better and I turned back to go downstairs at once – but not before I had a quick glance towards the room. While I watched from the top of the stairs, the door to the room slowly opened a crack. For a brief moment I saw something strange in there. It was an unnaturally pale face staring at me."

"This didn't happen to me, but members of my family.

My father's family came here from Cuba back in the 60s, and being typical cubans, all moved into one house in Newark, NJ. We're talking about 10 people under one roof. Now this story takes place in 82. I was 2 and my sister a newborn. My father had moved out and was living on his own with my mother. But I'm not talking about that house, I'm talking about the house in Newark, and bear in mind everything I'm telling you guys here is what I've heard from family that's willing to talk about it, so take it for what you will. Things started normal in the house at first, but little things were just off... like things wouldn't be where you left them, some unexplained noises. A little unsettling, but whatever. But then my Aunt started having these crazy nightmares. In them, she was being violently raped by a man with no head. Her husband would wake her up as she screamed, and she'd tell him how it felt so real. He'd do his best to calm her down and try and bring in some sense of normalcy. Now take this for what you will, but my Aunt ended up pregnant. Everyone was happy and rejoicing, as this would be her and her husband's first child, but in the 4th month she went into premature labor. Everyone knew the child would be lost. When the fetus was "delivered," it did not have a head. I wish I could say the story ends here, but it gets worse.

Shit was now being thrown around the house. There were loud bangs and other noises all through the day and night. One of my Aunts, a lil old lady about 4'9" and 95lbs, would say that the spirit in the house would talk to her and tell her he didn't like all these people in his house. Now my father is a rational and cool headed to a psychotic degree. I've seen him nail his hand to a wall, and after failing to pry the nail out himself, cut out the section of wall around his hand, drive to the hospital

>Your turn, /x/.

I highly doubt I can top any of these. My paranormal experiences are more so predicting/knowing things than they are creepy.

>>6256
Wow, that's pretty impressive. How long have you been practicing psi?

Also, I'd like to clarify something here.
Doing this twirling of an object is an offset of your conscious mind, not your subconscious.
It keeps your conscious mind occupied while you do any psi action.

I found scribbling randomly on a piece of paper seems to work.

Also, I've recently unlocked a door using my psi abilities.
Hahahaha! (I almost died of shock. Literally.)

>>6259
I've been practicing since I knew what psychic meant. However, I've only made improvements within the last year or so, but when I finally felt it, I knew what it was. I promptly pissed off my cat with my mind.

Meditation does -NOT- work for me, and I can't change anything that isn't mental. The only times I change physical objects are when I mess up on minds. I couldn't even wiggle my bobblehead- much less destroy a phone.

I didn't know people were into psionics. I can't use telekinesis but I feel I should be able to, sometime I will even instinctively call something too me only to realise a second later that it won't actually come. I've always thought that if I were to work on it I could make something happen, but the only time I would have the sort of time I feel I would need would be if I went to prison or something like that.

In terms of other abilities I can read the thoughts and emotions of others. Not in the way TV describes it, for example if you are thinking of a pink elephant then I don't know that, but I can tell what someone is feeling, how they are thinking, and sometimes I can read what a person is all about with just a glance. It is something that has gotten more reliable the older I get (mid 20's). I have experimented with placing emotions in people but I don't have a lot of ways to practice it. I can however make people feel intimidated by my presence if I concentrate enough.

Does anyone else have these abilities? What are ways I can refine them and make them stronger?

>>6268
Here's hoping that the DSM V will incorporate that, especially since it is recognized by many leading psychologists in the field of memory. For example, Elizabeth Loftus. Look her up if you're curious. You too, OP.

Third-person memories are often memories that you created yourself from hearing a story of an event that you don't remember. In place of the actual memory you put in what you remember from the retelling, and therefore you view it visually in the third person.
This could be falsely interpreted as an "out of body" memory.

Now I'm not entirely sure of this, but I have a feeling it's pretty common as I have some myself. And other pieces that I've had in my head so long that I can't remember if they are real memories or dreams. That can happen too.

So yea, I call bullshit.

>>6282

I have a third person memory of an event that did occur, but my memory has details that are most likely incorrect. The event was that I'd severed the top part of one of my fingers, and the memory was of me watching myself run down the road to the doctors' surgery with my sister holding my other hand, and a long piece of tissue paper flapping away behind us. However, in the memory, we're running down the street the wrong way as, to get from my home to the doctors' would require me to run the other way down the street - anything other way would take longer, and in the circumstances, I imagine haste would be important. Hence, my belief is that childhood thoughts, dreams or random imaginings can be misremembered as actual memories.

I still recommend you that link. The courses are really well made and easy to understand/remember.
