Garuda Centre: AArticles: How to Trance

(Do exercises at your own risk, read the disclaimer* before the exercises)

People go into different states of different levels daily. The most common daily deep state -or trance, is sleep. That trance happens pretty much by itself -when you ALLOW IT.

Basically one goes into trance when there is not much else going on, or you are bored.

If you do anything long enough, it will take you into trance: Driving far on the open highway (called daydreaming), Reading pages of fiction, Watching a movie attentively... etc. The point is, YOU DO IT ALREADY. We are used to these trances, so unless you snap out of it, you usually don't even notice you just did it.

Use trance:

Going into trance in and of itself is a fairly pointless affair, unless you can do it to prove to yourself that you can and do.

Below are some things you can do EASILY and QUICKLY to induce trance states that you will be CONSCIOUS of AS IT HAPPENS.

Below are three easy ways of inducing a trance.

Ways to spin your reality so you know it spun:

1. STARING:

Sit comfortably and still and look fixedly at a spot on a monochrome wall for 60 seconds. (That's right, just do it.)

OK, if you want detail:

1. Use wall with at least a meter clear, one colour area.

2. Try blink little -you will,

3. Keep your body still

4. Keep your eyes focused, they may tend to soften.

5. You don't have to do anything with your 'mind'

6. Pretty soon some or all of the following will appear to happen:

1. The spot appears to move,

2. the wall 'breathes' or 'stretches' organically,

3. Your depth perception distorts.

2. ONE WORD 'SPELL':

Pick a word like 'fork', sit comfortably with your eyes closed, plug both ears with your fingers and repeat the word over-and-over, out loud, until you realize you are having a new kind of experience.

Details:

1. Single syllable words work easier, but use any one (Some say one should not use one's name in this exercise -I don't know why).

2. Nouns or verbs work better.

3. Test to see if the word 'repeats' easily ('marks' will be harder than 'bus')

4. Just keep a steady fast pace, don't rush the repetition.

5. Just keep going until things go strange:

You may find your attention shifts from seeing associations of the word mentally, to listening to the sound coming out your mouth, or anything else... just keep going.

RE-ORIENTATION:

All these methods are safe to my knowledge. They are designed to 'mess with your head', so when they do, relax...

Once you 'get the point', JUST STOP.

-if you feel you need, sit or lie down for a minute or so with your eyes open and settle in good old reality. Being your biggest habit, reality will kick in automatically after a trance.

Have fun
