Dean Radin is a scientific psychic researcher who has been working in the field for many years.

His book, The Conscious Universe: The Scientific Truth of Psychic Phenomena, is an excellent work on the current state of scientific psychic research.

The Conscious Universe is a superb overview of what is possible and what has been discovered so far, backed by solid research and clearly explained.  I highly recommend this book and it’s available via Amazon for a very affordable price:

The good news is psi – psi is short for psychic phenomena – is real.  The bad news is that no one is psychic in the way that movies, fiction, or ‘psychic consultants’ advertise themselves to be.  Yet.

One day, however, psychic abilities may become more and more pronounced as we find out more about them.

I will be covering this subject in more detail on this blog later on.  Psychic abilities are the key part of a much larger story involving evolution, humanity, and the esoteric forces that shape history.

Is there spiritual evolution?  I was recently responding to the post  here.

My thoughts were:

Interesting question, but one very hard to determine. Our egos will always get in the way.

One observation I have is that anytime a natural disaster, war, or any form of unexpected death ends up killing people those who survive are being selected for their intuition or luck.

So over time there may be a progress of consciousness based on a subconscious ability among survivors to see into the future or be lucky.

This would take a long time but eventually evolution would select for quantum consciousness, i.e. minds able to transcend space and time.

Evolution looks like it selects for consciousness, specifically quantum consciousness (which would show up as luck).

If this is so can you move more in line with evolution selecting for luck and transcendent mind by using your mind in specific ways?

Two known ways to enhance the mind’s functioning in these ways are 1) meditation and 2) guided imagery type exercises.

So you’re in the right place!

Meditation can be complex subject.  Many people are selling it instead of teaching it as a progression of awareness that is supposed to set you free.

The main problem is that the practice of it often ends up the goal, instead of the state of mind.

Did you meditate today?

Is that what really matters?

The thing is that meditation, like physical or hatha yoga, is something that is designed to get you into a state where you let go of a certain kind of thinking.

You let go of a certain kind of thinking and experience the world as it is.

When you are experiencing the world this way you recognize there is

  • happiness and sadness
  • love and hate
  • pain and pleasure
  • peaks and valleys
  • and everything in between

You realize that you can focus your mind, control your attention, and by doing so get a different perception of reality and your consciousness.

Unfortunately, meditation and yoga and prayer and spiritual systems can become a crutch.  They are not supposed to be a crutch, they are supposed to be training wheels. When you reach a certain point you need to let go of the training wheels.

Like with training wheels how do you know you’re ready to ride on your own?  You have to start riding naked.  You have to start doing it without the training wheels.

If you’ve been meditating for years you’re ready to expand your meditation into your everyday life and try new approaches.

Don’t fall into the trap of thinking the practice is the doing.  It’s not. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking you’re not ready.  You are.

This week spend some time without the training wheels.

Try something that is a moving, waking meditation.  Examples require staying present in the moment while remaining flexible and open.

Here are some possibilities:  play hacky sack; play music with some friends free-style (not from a set song – in other words, jam); go somewhere for awhile and don’t know where you are going – make it up as you go along; meet with people with no expectations; just go with the flow.

If you don’t need to practice this… that’s great.  But most meditators or spiritual devotees need to spend less time on a rigid practice and more on expanding that practice out into their life.

Either way, enjoy yourself.  Watch it all coming and going.

That’s what should be your meditation: existence itself.
