Religious Experience On-Demand
Imagine being able to have a feeling one one-ness, belonging and utter bliss whenever you feel like it.
Ever had what people call a “religious experience”? Here’s a secret: Its all in your head.
Here’s how to have a transcendental/religious experience – it takes about 90-120 minutes and I guarantee you will never forget it:
1 – Sit straight on a chair or the floor staring a blank wall – close enough that you only see a blank wall. Make sure you will not be disturbed or interrupted at all.
2 – Turn on some ambient instrumental music, this will come in handy later.
3 – Imagine you are flying.
4 – Keep at it for 90-120 minutes. Nothing much will happen the first hour – brace yourself for the final 20 minutes.
Yup, that’s all there is to it folks – your brain does the rest for you.
But wait, there’s more.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could get this epic endorphin boost without the two hours of sitting in a chair doing nothing?
Of course – and there is a way, without shooting heroine. You’re probably not going to like it, though, since it involves work.
All you have to do is repeat this experience once every day or every other day for about two weeks. Always play the same music. After that the first few tries you’ll notice the time it takes to feel like you just creamed your pants with joy becomes shorter and shorter, and the effect quite a bit stronger.
After the two weeks, you’ll probably be able to conjure up an experience like this in a matter of 15-30 minutes or less.
Do it enough times an eventually you’ll get to the point you don’t need the music – it helps, though you don’t need it.
Eventually you’ll get to the point you can get a high virtually anytime, anywhere, while doing almost anything. Walking, weightlifting, anything where you can have some spare brain cycles – heck even typing this blog post.
One word of caution – Pick your “trigger” music well. New Age music worked for me. I say pick it carefully because hearing the music will trigger a conditioned response and get you flying high whether you wanted it or not – You don’t want to pick something popular.
Pavlov would be proud.

Nicely written.. i’ve discovered something similar myself – invented by the Chinese (allegedly) over 3000 years ago — check out ‘zhan zhuang’ for details..

Thank you. That’s pretty cool. The most important thing about this little exercise I posted is that it doesn’t require nor lead you to believe in any bullshit – Quite the contrary, it shows you what you can do with your mind is solely in your mind and has nothing to do with all the stories people wrap around their experiences to explain them. Ghosts and souls and gods and demons, Ki, Chi, Ether, the golden mean, the number 23… We create stories to explain what happens – Reality tends to be a heck of a lot simpler than our stories, yet usually hidden from view by our own way of understanding by narrative. Thank you for reading – I was wondering if that post just flew by – That is something that has helped me immensely through the years and something I use on a daily basis.

I agree – I think it’s about keeping at it until your monkey mind gets tired and goes to sleep. Then you’ll see what’s really there…
Also I think the stories are a form of camouflage – we need to feel comfortable in a belief system. But the flipside is that you can easily limit your thinking and development…
That said, I am still in the process of exploring.. can go a lot further..
Keep up the great work!
