Welcome

The goal of this blog is to motivate myself and others for further practice as well as provide details that might explain what's going on..

Challenge accepted

Very challenging deadlines with barely any team left. I've whined enough about it, but it's not that I don't actually enjoy being in very challenging situations. Decided to shift my priorities and focus on finishing the project. There must be a way to still finish it in time. I guess the only way to get it done and survive the pressure is to tie it all to spiritual development. So far the pressure has pressed hard against the health and motivation of the whole team. Since the deadlines seem humanly impossible, the only way to finish the project is by overcoming all personal issues, opening all psi channels and becoming a superhuman. The strength of intent and willpower has worked wonders already.

On Friday-Saturday I "enjoyed" long days of lab tests and spent a night sleeping on the office floor. Yesterday I enjoyed the good old familiar feeling of infinite stamina and lightstepping. Though, so far sleep deprivation has still resulted in tiredness. I want to overcome tiredness as well. Would get the time for software development and documentation as well, in addition to all the lab tests that need doing.

I've reserved an hour or so each evening for Dreamfall Chapters as well. One of the most awesome games I've played so far. Very powerful scenes.

Why god right-handed?

No I'm not religious. At least not that religious. Anyway, recently there has been a lot of synchronicity which seems to be saying "learn electromagnetics!" At the teaching seminar a couple of days ago, the professor showed a clip of the physics introductory course at Harvard. An experiment on magnetic forces, which was designed to demonstrate the right-hand rule.

I've studied electromagnetics years ago and I know that the right-hand rule applies there because it's a vector product between the current vector and magnetic field vector. However, for me Lorentz force law lacks the foundation. I mean, why is it in nature that it follows the right-hand rule instead of a left-hand rule? What if one could mirror the effect with metamaterials. How would that work? What would be the applications?

An hour or two later, a friend posts a Cody's Lab video on building a boost converter with water (very good analogy between electromagnetics and water).



Watched some X-files again in the evening: S06E02 Drive, S06E03 Triangle. Started to wonder about the fabric of vacuum and the propagation of light. The following Dreamland episodes were also somewhat related.

Also stumbled upon a clip of the filament-based structure of the universe, and wondered how it might relate to Blavatsky's Secret Doctrine. Or how the right-hand rule might relate to what Steve Richards described in his book on invisibility (rotation in one direction materializes, rotation in the other direction dematerializes).

An interesting dream last night. I'm at a foreign town which I once hiked through in another dream, during the winter. It's a small town with an exceptional medieval town centre. Took my backpack, packed it full of my stuff to make it as heavy as possible (had hoped for more but only got +10 kg). Fastened it properly and went running with it. Leaped down into a dry moat. Spotted two entrances to an old coal mine. Left these behind and continued towards a tower museum that had been finished just recently. There was a family with two kids entering the building as well .. ran past them. Ran up the ramps to the top of the tower and leaped to catch a rope that was hanging from the roof. The ceiling unfolded and I saw something beyond what my mind could comprehend. It looked almost like the tentacles of a jellyfish sticking down from the ceiling, except that these were not tentacles, they had branches and looked tree-like. But they were not tree branches, either because they were semi-transparent and had constant thickness. Moreover, there were red / pink balls of light attached to the "tentabranchicles or whatevers". It was artificial .. a museum / arts exhibition, after all. As I hung on the rope, my weight expanded the work of wonder. I then saw an image or an animation of something propagating down from between the tentacles by bouncing off the branches. When I let go of the rope, it contracted back to its original compact form in the ceiling. Met some other person on the street. She said she was sorry I had picked the tower instead of a clay workshop (I think it was) just across the street. Although I wasn't sure about the preference of the family that I had run past, I was pretty sure I had picked the most interesting place to visit (for myself, at least). Not sure if or how this relates to my synchronicities but interesting nevertheless.

What about now? Still hasn't clicked =/.

Sunset

Picked up focusing on the top of the head at night again. A couple of nights with interesting dreams.

Found myself flying through an alley of trees. Stopped and figured that there's something which I had not tried yet. Laid down on the road, facing towards the sky. Tried to walk up into the sky .. interesting idea for a lucid dream but it didn't work. I wasn't moving, and the dream faded.

Woke into an intermediate state where I was aware of being in bed without body awareness. An image appeared before me: young moon and stars through a thin layer of cloudcover. Tried to focus on the image for trataka practice, but the image faded each time I tried to focus on it. After about 3 attempts, the image disappeared.

Found myself at the sea somewhere, at sunset. There was a building there, not sure if it was a lighthouse (again) or not. Enjoyed the scenery but wanted to take a photo of the building on the sunset background. Realized I had left my camera at home. Went to fetch it but when I came back, the situation had changed. The sun had set, and there was a group of foreign tourists at the site.
Typical.

Last night I worked on reorganizing some unknown electronics in a fuse box, in some random cellar. Some other people tried to reorganize it but no matter what they tried, it looked like a mess to me. I knew that the electronics symbolized my own thought patterns.

Background info - I've been working on a course that I'm giving. In parallel, I'm taking a course about teaching. For the course, I prepared learner's autobiography which helped me realize the significance of my learning experiences so far. Found it amazing how many different learning and teaching methods I had experienced. But more importantly, it has somehow happened that I've received the best teachings without realizing it myself.
