So you'd rather we beat your dead horse?

 

Being neither an endocrinologist nor a follower of Master Djwhal Khul, the thought occurs to me that perhaps you are not posting this in the right kind of forum. But, what do I know? I'm just a musician.

Honestly Luminon, I can't imagine a rational conversation coming out of this, since you just asked about your gaping chakra.  Other than saying, "That sounds dirty *snort*" I don't have much to say without going all the way down to the placebo effect, confirmation bias and how the need to reduce dissonance eventually leads to complete self delusion.

 

Maybe you could send a tell to MichaelMcF, he seemed to enjoy conversations like these.

 

What exactly is a limit of placebo effect or confirmation bias? Can a delusion be as real as a regular nerve input from things around us? AFAIK, delusions thrive on the fact, that people accept weak feelings and make assumptions on them because they wish it to be true. So that would mean, that people who strongly and realistically perceive something without wishing for it in advance, are not deluded.
Really, that is a serious and intriguing philosophic problem. The problem of observation vs. delusion. Science is a man-made area of known facts and it is interesting how tenaciously people prefer to dismiss unknown observations for trivial reasons instead of acknowledging that they need to be studied.

I never did any effort to imagine anything, it was all too easy and automatic. But I'd welcome if my hypophysis would stop pressing, squirming, throbbing and so on. It's not painful, but a little unpleasant and distracting. On top of that, it feels like it would shine or radiate something and also I hear a characteristic extremely high-pitched sound. Quite interesting, isn't it? If people here can share their health problems, why couldn't I?

I could at least find out more about it. You say that normally people are not aware of their hypophysis? They don't feel that it's there, above the half of oral cavity? They can't stimulate it by turning their attention to it? You say that science is not yet aware of such medical phenomenon? I don't want to come at a university and hear them say to me, "Well, we researched that two years ago, a wonderful revolution in neurology, wasn't it? The doctor got a Nobel price for that and our test participants got a nice fat cheques for their help."

I think there are two processes. There is something happening with my hypophysis, and then I turn my attention to it which causes the feedback loop.

It's not a hypnosis or emotional problem, you can imagine it like where I turn my attention there is immediately an increased blood flow and pressure, which is unpleasant. Except that this is not a blood, but etheric substance that the etheric double uses instead of blood.
Hypnosis is a state of low threshold of critical thinking when people do things or accept ideas they normally wouldn't. But believe it or not, this IS my normal state. I can turn my attention like light of a flashlight to a section of my body, feel the energy concentrating there, and expect physical consequences, specially if that section is some important gland or nerve centrum. 

Most of the time part of my attention is occupied by the inward etheric perception. This is why I might seem absent-minded, clumsy, daydreaming, etc. If I'd have a regular sexual partner I'd learn to focus only on physical body, but for now I have not much use for the body. Etheric perception is much more interesting. I've even induced feelings of pleasure in parts of body where one would not expect it. Etheric body is a wonderful instrument to control nerve and endocrine system, but playing with it too much is unhealthy. I don't want to boast or anything, but looks like my nerve system allows me to do much more than it normally would to most of people, both for good and bad.

DK is not a master with followers, "Master" is an abbreviation of "Master of wisdom" which is a title for a person who achieved a certain notable degree of control over himself. He doesn't lead people, he wrote many books through help of Alice A. Bailey and I read some of them.

 

But for the most part, this is a forum of intelligent or intellectual or at least experienced people, who can at least scrap some interesting facts or life experiences from the bottom of their memory. There are various personalities here, various occupations, various cultures, various hobbies, various sexual orientations, veterans of various mental afflictions, what a wonderfully various place it is, when they're not rehashing Bible momentarily And I'm definitely one of the most various persons here.

Well, subjectively my observations can't be trusted or mistrusted - they just are, and are real as any other nerve input that my senses give me. But from what I heard, delusions are either limited in intensity, or limited in time (don't last long or don't last all the time) or they otherwise are accompanied by serious pathologic states of mind or body.

 

I think it is too early for falsification, first we should focus on classification. Obviously, I can't falsify a personal observation, that would be possible only by admitting that everything is a 100% lie. So if the observation is real, the question is how much the causes of it are currently measurable.

I don't mean I actually feel the gland itself working or secreting fluids. The gland I feel is somewhat bigger than it should be, and it's doesn't have sharp boundaries, it's rather like a tangible glare from that place. What I feel is etheric counterpart of it, not the gland itself. Fortunately I don't peruse my cranial cavities with etheric perception, just a little of the etheric double which is somewhat simplier. It has an overall simplicity of electronic appliance, compared to the complexity of cellular bio-chemical machine of physical body.

I presume, that the gland is stimulated by the activity of its etheric counterpart and the chakra, so I should be able to stimulate the gland. To what extent, I don't know. There should be differences in activity of the gland, different hormone levels in brain chemistry, etc. Plus, there might be a substantial difference in certain kinds of brain activity, a difference between person with etheric perception and without it. Maybe it is a mystical power but it's among the least mystical of them all and therefore most measurable.

Yes, if you strive to prove or die, it is a lose-lose scenario. But there are many questions to be asked before you even know what to prove. What is a professional's attitude toward such things? How to exclude mental disease as a cause? How to gain a researcher's attention? How to keep one's anonymity and medical chart safe from potentially compromising records? How to become a privileged and paid participant on neurologic and endocrinologic research?  Guess there's no workaround around that, someone should invent a new scientific method that will really get things done. It should start like, 'go to a bar where scientists hang out and buy one several drinks till he softens up and becomes more open-minded about a new line of research...'

 

Dammit, I wonder how that's possible. What are they doing wrong? Don't say choosing the subject of research

Well, I don't know many aura-seeing people. They are pretty rare around here. I can see aura just like anybody, the white-glowing layer around people that sometimes flows a little away almost like smoke, if they don't move. But for that they must stand 2 meters from white wall and the light mustn't be very strong. Then if I or any other  person concentrate real hard, I can see the most plain, basic view of white aura outline with no details. Once I looked like that in lecture audience and I saw all people in front of me with auras around them, not just the guy in the front. But I know how diffcult it is and I have no idea if that requires to see the person to get a proper focus. Did that man claim to see the aura without seeing the person?

You're right, students are probably the best bet. Specially when last year many doctors left the country, looks like 30-50 from every hospital. But when it comes to money, it looks to me like this part of science needs a lot of social engineering. I actually need to become a friend of a student, exchange ideas and so on, to make him interested to invest money, time and possibly an opportunity of master's or doctor's graduation work.

It is in such a great contrast to how simple is the scientific method described. I have a friend, he's an engineer and he does some private technologic research on his own. He has a trouble drowning his expenses in the company's bills. Every single test costs money and most of them are unsuccesful. If he does tests, his money fly out of the window. The only help is a simulating software but that's expensive and he wants to research some material properties which are not yet well described nor simulated. So I sort of know what a nuisance it is. That's what gets me so suspicious of the whole scientific method business. It's so simple that children can do it, yet so diffcult and expensive that a stranger in the field cannot make a breakthrough, not when expensive technology is involved. So it's not that simple after all, scientific method is a pretty idea but implementing it into reality is very diffcult even for professionals.
