Something strange is going on regrading my body,and nobody seems to know what it is.Some say it is biofeedback.iv read all about this,but no its not that.ivread about the power of the mind,but that not it.Try as I may I cannot find what I have.If I want my hand to move,it moves on it own,with any efford by me,if i set in a chair and ask my head to move to the right or left,it will.If I ask my eyes to close they will.even my legs.Ive even tryed googel.they have never heard of it.does anybody on the board know what this is called?

Sounds reasonable to me, George. If I want to type, my fingers and hands move etc. However, it also sounds like you have severed the direct proprioceptive linkages by which the sense of translation of your urges into motion are normally sensed. This is a purely "functional" effect - brought on by the way you are "holding your mind" so to say. It's harmless, unless you find your body going out to the movies without you.

My suggestion is to do a ritual which ought to bring you some idea of what's the purpose.

1. Make the decision to know, even if the understanding is uncomfortable.
2. For the purpose of gaining this understanding, take a clean glass and fill it with water normally.
3. On a clean sheet of paper, preferably using a new pen, write something like, "I seek understanding of the purpose of the motion. I ask God and all of God's assistants to being this to me."
4. Dip a corner of the paper in the  water to get the message generalized to at least two media.
5. Set it into motion by saying something like, "I do this to involve my energy in discovery of what I wish to understand." Then burn the paper - that sends the message into the air. Drink the water, that sends the message into the water inside you. Toss the wet bit of paper into a hole (a flower pot is OK to transfer the message into elemental earth.

Then wait to see what you are told. Usually the message will be abstract, acted out rather than specific, and will involve feeling more than thinking. Whatever you get back, write it down, but don;t try to analyze it immediately. Wait three days as you accumulate feedback, and then see hat it seems to be trying to express.

This is not a perfect method, but is seems amazingly powerful for some types of information. I've used it for years in one or another form.

OK George, you found the solution. Comes in those two terms you used -

1.  I'll do it

2.  Thank God

Hi Doc -
OK I'm busted. The three gunas - action, stasis and mutability - are central to ancient Hindu thought, and can be found as early as the Egyptian Papyrus of Ani as organizing principles. My wife IS Wiccan - the informal kind, and this is how we run the household. The goal is simply to get life energy directed (like aiming a gun) and then released (pulling the trigger) while holding the target still. It's all the same stuff as my clnical work in which I do little more than high pressure sales of good health to people in a semi comatose state of relaxation.

George,

This happened in the movie The Matrix.  Keanu Reeves is practicing martial arts in virtual reality.  After a workout, he is breathing hard (in the virtual world his brain is hooked up to).  Morphues, his mentor looks at him, and says (as Keanu huffs and puffs), "you think that is really air you are breathing?"  "Hmmm.." and raises his eyebrows in amusement. 

Our consciousness feels it is based here in the physical, but it is not (dreams are a perfect example).  Our bodies here in the physical are a vehicle for expression of our spirit.

George, I sent you an email but it was returned for a wrong address.
