My Journey Thus Far…
Dec 21st, 2005 by David Wechsler
I originally wrote this story about myself over a year ago, I’m putting it here because it’s a good overview for how I came to be involved with spirituality in general and everything leading up to the creation of this website.
Innately, I was always drawn towards the New Age movement, which started with my monthly readings of OMNI magazine when I was in junior-high school. One time there was an article talking about tai chi, and other eastern martial arts that just intrigued me. I also remember that when I was in junior-high school, I took martial arts classes (Tang Soo Do) and in the midst of my learning various forms and such, I realized that my mind was much more drawn to the healing side of the ancient arts. Our sensei would always teach us a few accupressure points where if you hit someone there, it the results would be painful; but he also taught that if these points were massaged, then they can bring relief to the same discomforts they would cause when used in violence. I don’t know if this concept is completely true, but this one realization of self-healing become a major part of my life ever since.
Having low self-esteem in high school due to a lack of style, bad hairstyling, and an acne problem, my interests gravitated towards chinese medicine. I always thought - maybe there were some herbs that would help, and in that search I came upon goldenseal and others that helped in the short-term, but that’s about it… It wasn’t until the distant future (about 3 years ago), that I realized that maybe my GI tract had something to do with it.
Then came college, as a typical guy always interested in girls & gadgets (but gadgets were always easy to come by versus girls which weren’t, in my situation at least), I pursued a career in electrical engineering, based on the cool equipment that I was looking forward to playing with (and based somewhat on my favorite movie at the time, Real Genius, with Val Kilmer). There was one girl that I was very attracted to, an orthodox Jewish mystically-sexy senior, and despite my efforts in trying to get to know her, I decided that maybe there was another way - I learned about OOBEs (I thought I could visit her in her dream state…), but soon gave up after learning that it was probably something that you had to be naturally good at. Anyway, My tastes have always been on fringe topics at the time like: VR, biofeedback, altered states (without drugs), chinese medicine, etc.
I remember working my 1st job in NYC as an application engineer for a toy-design company and I one day decided to join a tai chi class. Especially after watching the cool series on TV, Kung Fu, with David Carradine. Anyway, obsessed with leaning what this ‘chi’ thing was all about, and eventually consciously feeling it for the 1st time, I was hooked. This led me to a deep journey of inner exploration… From classes on Chi & Auras to qigong (Chi Kung), I studied everything I could find on the subject and experimented on my own. From laying in bed before I went to sleep and playing with the externally projected chi-feeling between my hands, to “applying” it to women by energetically getting them turned on by using the force
I am in the middle of reading a fantastic book, Astral Dynamics that describes an easy-to-learn training course that helps you achieve the out-of-body (OOBE) state. My study of qigong is paying off by giving me a head start (I am already very comfortable feeling my energy body and directing my energy flows solely with my mind). Cool stuff!!! I’m at a point where I am working on individually activating my major & minor chakras. There is alot of work to do!!! I’m also reading this book differently than I read most other books. I put it down until I am very comfortable with the current set of exercises that it recommends working on. This way - I just don’t finish the book and file the info away someplace w/o ever trying to seriously apply it. I feel that the real challenge is finding the time to do this sort of work, without interruption.
For awhile, I was really into brain-enhancement stuff. I have a SLED (sound & light entrainment device) mind machine that I’ve had alot of fun with over the years. I have also played around with a CES device (Cranial Electro-stimulation) which by the way is pretty cool - the cheap version I have works pretty well and relaxes me to a huge degree. I built a few sets of biocircuits - you lay on various copper plates that are connected to each other in various configurations, and generally it has an extremely relaxing effect on the body - I’ve even experimented with substance circuits, where you place some sort of chemical or drug in water inline with the rest of the biocircuit. I have DEFINATELY had results, and even wierder, is that my wife who was laying nearby was also affected to the same strong degree as I was, despite the fact that we weren’t even touching one another. I’m really into this stuff…
A few years later, when I met my wife who is an extremely special woman, she introduced me to a whole new world of wonder. I remember waking up next to her one morning, hearing her talking in ’strange tongues’in her sleep - at that time I knew something special was going on. Eventually, she introduced me to my first book on channelled material, Kryon Book 3. At first I thought it was all BS, but a few years later I took another look and have since become hooked! I think Kryon is a great entity to start with because “he” speaks alot about science, physics, magnetics, astronomy and frequently invites the listener and the reader to “watch-out” for future predictions, like major gamma-ray bursts coming from various regions of the sky, etc. I highly recommend Kryon.
As time progressed and I started searching out other channels, I came upon another one that I like alot, The Group, offers, like Kryon, many practical tools you can use to increase the quality of your lives, i.e. in the Practical Magic series. Explore the various channels listed on this site and via other sources and you’ll find great knowledge that will ring true with each and every one of you, to various degrees.
I’m obviously very passionate about all of this sort of thing. I oftentimes feel a bit lost about what would be the best path for me to take in life. I need something that will give me the financial freedom & job satisfaction that I hugely desire - maybe this sort of thing is my ultimate path (at least for some time). I don’t know… I am going to leave it up to God to provide for me the opportunities, if these choices would be the best for my life-contract.
