		<description>This is more of a question than a comment. While I was reading this post, I felt like I fit into the last three categories. I seriously doubt that I really am in the Transcendental category, as I am only on Awakening Level 1 right now... but I still feel that I fit into more than one category. Is that possible? Or am I just incapable of telling the difference from my subjective point of view?

FROM BILL: You may have some qualities of levels beyond where your center of gravity is, and you always have the capacity to exibit characteristics of levels you have been through. Your center of gravity, so to speak, is going to be in one place--you have one main way of making sense of the world, and that&#039;s where you come from most of the time.</description>

		<description>I have a question:
What headphones are required for holosync?
My stereo headphones have a response of 10-40,000 hz which to my way of thinking is good for Beta. Alpha is 7-13hz, Theta 4-7 hz. Is more responsive headphones required for the Alpha and Theta ranges?
Thank you,
Carl Springer

		<description>Hi Bill I have just listended to your programme of enlightement wow this sounds really fantastic. Its a place I&#039;d like to experience for sure.
First I would like if you could have more knowledge on your holosynce programme what you can expect from it what you can get from it and what level whatever there is to know I wish to know.
This new venture because I live in the UK and my friend Pauline will you ever come to the uk?

		<description>Hi Bill,


There are a few things I would like to take issue with after reading your last missive.

Well it seems to me you are at extreme odds with the &quot;Secret&quot; and I can&#039;t really reconcile your beliefs with theirs.  Clearly one has to put oneself in alignment with what one wants by actually doing something....but that doesn&#039;t mean that no &quot;supernatural&quot; effect or agent is at work.  The speed a which one can acheive or get what they want is miraculous if one uses the right mental and spiritual tools allied to some material effort. However most people who do not employ the &quot;secret&quot; or anything like it, fail to get what they want and fail to achieve. This is simply a matter of fact. (only 1 in 16 bussiness survive for 5 years for example).  I am afraid that the idea that hard work, training and effort alone will gaurantee success is nonsense and patently so.   However it is remarkable and &quot;magical&quot; how things fall into place when when employs &quot;The Secret&quot; in our endeavour.

However what really got my goat with your latest missive is the mention of the trickster magician Randi.  He is not a scientist and his &quot;reward&quot; for proving the paranormal is a nonsense. His conditions are severe and if he isn&#039;t convinced totally (God himself couldn&#039;t convince this professional debunker) he won&#039;t pay. He sets the rules and for example his attempt to test Homeopathy was crazy. He had made a dilution that was essentially weaker than than a drop of water in the ocean and then we are told that it doesn&#039;t work.  There are limits to everything.  Actually various paranormal powers have been scientifically proven both in the USA, Europe and particularly in Russia.  These are repeatable experiments but unfortunately few people ever want to follow up on the science and in the West we are up against the powers that be that don&#039;t want us to know for a fact that such powers are in existance, it reduces their power and changes quite a few political ideologies of the western world.  So we have professional debunkers like Randi running around.  Of course a true master wouldn&#039;t have the sligtest interest in proving things to Randi or in his million dollars.

Quantum physics tell us demostrably that the observer cannot be seperated from the observed and there is a a tendancy for the observerd to fulfill our expectation.  Now this raises a very serious scientfic problem especially regards the paranormal.  If the testors are antagonistic to these subtle abilites and effects they could very well be stopping them!  Dont&#039; believe in Quantum Physics? Best dump your Tv, Computer, Mobile phone etc then because they work off Quantum Physics Science.

Consciousness clearly interacts with matter at very subtle levels. This is demonstrable in quantum physics. This of course brings into question the nature of reality itself.  

Lets look at the brain.  Recently tests have been done using imaging scanners on the brains of persons receiving stimulation to cause sensations, of taste, smell and imagery etc.  It  was found that the subject was aware of the taste or smell etc BEFORE there was a change in the brain!  This indicates that the brain is not creating the experience but responding to it.  Which raises a lot of questions and answers that I won&#039;t go into here to a great extent.  

Brain waves etc do not cause the sensations etc but are responses. Brainwaves are not thoughts but responses to thoughts and other things. 

Look at Holosync, you can use holosync to create various brain wave patterns associated with various moods etc.  Such as feelings of compassion.  However unless you are very experienced using holosync, simply changing your brain waves to those of a Bodhisattva (Buddha of Compassion) won&#039;t fill you with feelings of compassion at all. In fact you might not get any experience whatsoever. Again this clearly indicates that the brain waves are not the cause of the experience but the result of them.  If you create brainwaves of compassion using holosync then you should eventually, after practicing, experience compassion.  What I believe is actually happening is, Holosync is doing more than simply causing brainwave change, it is causing a resonance, an &quot;idea&quot; in the deep mind that ultimately results in the experience.  Think of it like this.  The purpose of life is to manifest your self through your body and transform it to the Suddha Devam (immortal devic body or Christ Body of Ascension).  Years of meditation transform the body including the brain, so that it can be charged with the spiritual energies of the soul.  What holosync does I believe is help one to transform the brain far quicker so that higher experiences can be gained.  It&#039;s not everything that is needed but I believe it can certainly help create the conditions at least in the brain that are required.

Finally I have to take issue with the idea that good and evil are perspectives and that a higher transcendent persons sees it that way.  Good and Evil are absolutes. There is no way, murder, rape, torture etc can be reqarded as &quot;good&quot; or even neutral, requiring only our perception to make a distinction.  Those things are Evil. We are ultimately spiritual beings and Evil is not an opinion.  Evil is however limited and conditional on the chaotic nature of this universe, whilst Good is absolute, unconditional and is the ultimate extinguisher of Evil.  If we say, well Murder, Torture etc are only evil if we say so, then we are insane.  If ever that idea takes route then we are well on the road to hell and our societies will dissemble into chaotic hellish conditions. Are we not already seeing that in some places?</description>

		<description>Hi Bill,
I like your new blogging idea.  This first one is written in a lighter tone without sacrificing the message.  It is also more succinct and easier to read...ie not so much redefining of the issues presented.  I suspect you can feel comfortable doing it this way because the comments you receive will indicate how well your reading public understood the points you made, giving you a chance to redefine if necessary.  I enjoyed your article content in Mind Chatter but found myself skimming or skipping when redefining got too lengthy.  

I loved the last part of your final statement in this blog &quot;–and, to more easily move yourself to the higher levels, where the real fun begins.&quot;  ...key idea here is &quot;where the real fun begins&quot;.  :-) I love it..feels like a gentle tickle in my heart that puts a smile on my face and love in my world.

		<description>I wholeheartedly agree with Roger&#039;s interpretation of Paramahansa Yogananda&#039;s autiobiography in that not everything has to be proven by science as impossible without belief that it can and has happened.  &quot;I am not my body -- I am not my emotions&quot; is one analogy of the weightless state of what I believe is the astral body.  Based on the paradigm you present, those acts and happenings are straight away from spiritual identities in the transcendental stage.  It was not hard for me to believe, at all, what was stated in truth by Paramahansa.  The fact that his physical body did not deteriorate in what would be considered a normal way is also an (unproven by science) &#039;miracle.&#039;  I plan on getting the demo for Holosync before I go further but haven&#039;t the faintest idea of where to locate it.  Putting people in different levels based on their belief systems isn&#039;t accurate, in my perception, because people&#039;s consciousness is manifested largely due to their physical environment and upbringing.  
-Suzy  (maybe I&#039;m defensive about that book and the misunderstood &#039;miracles&#039; of consciousness and in unconscious states, but the book changed my life and helped me through a miscarriage as well as another life-altering event).  &quot;I am not my body.
