I'm always wound too tight. The only time I ever did something like that was writing for a college comp & rhet class assignment while doubled over with a case of food poisoning. The professor kept what I wrote as an example for future classes. I never did it again because the pain of food poisoning didn't seem worth it.mushroomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07651027035577798096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-76893574337361031052016-06-13T11:49:26.915-07:002016-06-13T11:49:26.915-07:00No. An affirmative action physics professor -- se...No. An affirmative action physics professor -- seemed like one, anyway -- bloviating on his love of Coltrane.

I assume that your communication with Holy Spirit began with meditation? Could you describe this in more detail? In the beginning did you use any aids, such as music or spoken word? How long after beginning did you (weeks,months years?) before O->(n).<br />Do you think this is available to everybody, or is it more of a gift or talent? Is an atheist New Ager who meditates and claims to be enlightened accessing the same O->(n), or is there a dark side to this practice?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16652102016905951809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-76774323107368991202016-06-13T09:43:01.245-07:002016-06-13T09:43:01.245-07:00"Every time I write a book or an article, I b...<i>"Every time I write a book or an article, I begin with a vague or general idea that suddenly turns into a very clear, detailed tractate, expressing ideas and wisdom far beyond my own."</i><br /><br />Yes, I know that feeling.<br /><br />There are slow-motion videos of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9oOytEnxsA" rel="nofollow">magnets self-organizing</a>. Just sitting there, doing nothing interesting, when another magnet drops in or is moved close to the set and suddenly, faster than the eye can see, they are arranged in a neat stack. Now granted, the magnets first had to have the capacity to arrange themselves in such a way - from horizontal spread to vertical alignment.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15975754287030568726noreply@blogger.com
