Fourfold bump.






OP, thank you for this thread. It's probably the best I've read in a long time.

So, breaking out of the matrix equates to reaching the causal plane/body in your experience?

What is your take on practices designed to increase energy? In my experience these are a mixed blessing of sorts. They can lift me up or help me achieve an insight, but they also tend to exaggerate my negativity and bad character trais. Observing this is helpful, of course, but I'm not yet sure if it's the right approach at all. It seems a good part of this energy generated by these practices goes straight to those entities, giving them a big feast.

Should there be a purifying of the physical and subtle ("astral") side of things first before attempting such practices? Or is the other option OK, as long as I am willing and prepared to face what is coming up this way?

Not few teachers warn against energetic exercises without proper preparation, I'm aware of this. Yet, it seems to me, at least some extra energy is needed to actually get out of low-energy ruts.
