Yes Zan really gets it with women and it's really an entire life philosophy echoed even in ancient wisdom tradtions, the esoteric, and more modern aspects like Jungian psychology. I'm glad you enjoyed the interview!

First I acknowledge that I'm not you and I'm not feeling the pain and frustration that you are. Sounds like your situation has highlighted how much you love your sister and want to protect her. It is also revealed to you that your trust in that friend was misplaced. Is likely that this pain will lead you to making choices that do serve you and your sister better. No one is condoning bad behavior. The point of the message is to say that we have such incredible power to heal that even very painful situations can be turned into opportunities if we approach it with the right mindset. Pain is very powerful teacher. We all face it in different ways and different times throughout our life. You may sting now but just don't let it keep you from finding your way back to love. Best wishes with your situation and thank you for sharing.

@flossman2 Thank you for sharing. This clip is part of a full episode about self healing. This is nothing to do with a religion. It's all about the power we have within us to heal. You may find the full episode insightful and in no way religious.

Lol not sure if this is sarcastic or literal, but either way I'm enjoying the comment! haha

@@EricCoplen Eric, alright... I am in Utah, am ex-mo... unfortunately I don't have 8 wives(or fortunately) but definitely enjoy you and your interview. I have a lot of mixed feelings about mormonism, I feel a lot what could have been good aspects are presented without spirituality and are just empty dogma. I feel morality would be a lot easier to teach and also accept if you they taught people a lot of love and how much value they are just as the are. It felt like a magic 8 ball approach at times... "If you dont like this just pray about it"... "Oh you dont like the answer,... pray again!!!" I can't keep shaking the magic 8 ball until I found a convenient answer that validates an accepted mormon cliche taught as knowledge. Mormonism puts sooo much emphasis on families and marriage but can't even begin to teach basic concepts of relating and truly loving others despite taking on the name and example of the greatest teachers of loving and relating to others. Zan has a very nice approach to relating to the world around him. Letting go of expectations of others is a great way to tap into being yourself and empowering others to simply be themselves.

I 100% get it. I'm happy to hear you've broken free of that for yourself as well. I'm sure it's a lifelong pursuit for you as it is for me. Thank you for the comment and if you have any content ideas you'd love to see from me, let me know. Thank you!

Any time!

Somehow I'm not feeling that heart, but I appreciate the feedback. Thank you.

That's incredible. It's such a a fascinating phenomenon. Thank you for sharing 👌💯

Good to know. Thank you for the info!

I'll try this!

@@WanderingCentrist Eric chickened out. So, any impressions? Has the space around you changed? Has the perspective changed? Have you noticed differences in the focus of pro-expanded consciousness?

Great question! I'm not sure myself on this one. Good future interview question. Thank you 👌💯

Feedback is feedback. Thank you for sharing 👌💯

I appreciate your perspective and I can see you prefer a more interview based format. I applaud that. However, I enjoy a more conversational approach. That's what lights me up! It sounds like my channel just isn't your style and that's just fine. No offense taken. Thank you for sharing 👌💯♥️

I was also left hanging with this response. One of my only OBE’s was spontaneously begging pulled out of my body by a dark entity that wanted to fight me. During that period in my life I had lived in a house with a dark entity present. Others in the house experienced things. How could that have been me? And now that I am long gone from that place in my life, how can my safety be assured? A serious answer by someone who has had similar experiences would be helpful

Great question. Apologies for delayed response. This is what you call a bit of a paradox from my understanding. Whilel it's true that both you and I are one from the perspective of source or God, it is still true that you and I are individuated aspects of the whole. So, from my understanding, any entity you encounter can be an individuated aspect of the whole but in another sense your relationship with them is a reflection of your relationship with yourself. Who and what you give power to is reflection of your relationship with yourself. Simple way of thinking of it is we keep a version of everyone that we know in our minds and in that sense our friends and family only exist as aspects of ourself when you're looking at it from a point of conscious perception. That doesn't take away from the fact that they are an individuated aspect of consciousness like yourself and thus the importance of not being judgmental and being willing to adapt your perception of them according to how they truly show up or what potentials they may have that you haven't seen or realized it. You can't take it so literally to mean that everything is just you because, from the human individuated aspect of consciousness perception, that is not true. We are all like drops from the same ocean. It's unique and yet each inescapably interconnected because we are all from one thing. This is my best understanding of it I hope that helps! Thank you for the question.

Well that sounds frightening for sure! I would look at it from this perspective. It's important to take a look at our relationships that we have in our life and notice which of those may not be supportive or conducive of our best interests. We may realize that we are attached to certain situations that don't serve us. In other words we have a level of consciousness that is playing a role and making us attractive to that particular situation or negative person for example. Where we find our power is being willing to change our relationship with ourself. So in your situation The entity may have been a reflection or made available to you or was attracted to you because of where you were emotionally and in your own consciousness. Think of it like a mirror. What we experience is like a reflection of ourselves even though what we experience are things we call separate from us like other people and external situations. The whole point of realizing that everything in a way is you to realize that you have power to change how you relate to yourself and then you will make behavioral decisions that will put you in new places and around new and different people and you will find that you may have some higher level assistance from the universe and attracting things that are in alignment with your new level of consciousness that's based in self-love. Is my best understanding of this and hope that helps! Thank you for sharing!

I think the understanding or healing that one receives as a result from this practice depends upon how ready one is to receive the information. As far as it not having much to do with the "outside world", I think it has more to do with "unseen Universe" than the "outside world", though even that description might be a bit confusing. I believe that rather than the OBE being a very realistic product of the imagination, it is actually the opposite; that "this reality" is actually the very realistic product of the imagination and that the "true reality" is actually closer to the astral plane that we enter when having an out of body experience. About 10 years ago I had a spontaneous OBE while meditating and it was hyper-realistic...colors were more vibrant and I could feel the energy of my environment. It's hard to describe something that's almost indescribable, but I knew I was somewhere I had never been before, despite the OBE being inside of my new apartment at the time. The scenery looked very familiar, but felt completely foreign at the same time. Science has confirmed that everything is energy, and in my opinion having an OBE is really just the observation and experience of an energetic plane that is slightly different from what we experience in our "waking lives." In other words, having an OBE is like looking under the hood of a vehicle to get a better understanding of how the vehicle operates. Hope this helps some.

if the experience pool never changes, progresses, etc. we would run out. if we retained all knowledge of past experiences we would not engage in this life the same way, giving us completely different type of experiences. it is my opinion that we are meant to experience this life from a naiveté.

I believe that our being here on Earth is to repeat an experience over and over till a moment of true awakening occur. The amnesia is part and parcel of the process and I believe that it is crucial, otherwise we become overloaded and eventually short circuit.

We are grand beings but we don't know it without self discovery and practice. We have to wake up to it and in doing so we take on lessons in life that help us evolve. I believe that what we are learning in life is power. We have to wake up to power and then make conscious decisions whether we use it to serve ourselves only or to serve the whole. This is what sets up the stage for good vs evil dynamic.

@@EricCoplen what a mature and thoughtful response to feedback! Taking note. :)

I made it for trolls only. You're welcome 🤗

Thank you brother. I'm happy you enjoyed. Pleasure to meet you as well 🤙💯

No offense taken. Appreciate the feedback! 💯

Same difference my friend.

No sleep paralysis sensation doesn’t need to happen all the time thats for beginners, once you’ve done it few times you would go straight into obe bypassing those sensations of sleep paralysis.

Yes. You're 💯 correct.

@@EricCoplen I always am! And when I'm not I admit it! Just kidding my friend and thank you

​@@youtubebane7036😂

Of course. Not sure the context of this comment. Accepting what is (rationality) is essential to stay grounded in truth. I agree 👍

@@EricCoplen I was talking about when you said that our beliefs are all borrowed. And I said that our beliefs might be but not something that we know. And that some things we come upon ourselves with deductive reasoning. That's all I was saying

@@youtubebane7036 Oh gotcha. Now it makes sense. It's funny I can film these but I may not remember all that I said. lol

@@EricCoplen I have the same problem because I make comments constantly and they're very long comments and I have to go back and look and see what I said so I'll know exactly what they're talking about. In my comment was kind of vague anyways right? See another thing I do is kind of answer questions people ask in their videos as a way to share information because then they will answer their question themselves and I always will leave a comment with my answer and I'll forget that it might not have enough information for them to know exactly what I was talking about or I'll just make comments that would make sense if the person who's video it was was there at the time and talking to me because I make them as I watched the video kind of like I'm talking to them. Hope I didn't cause you too much confusion Lord only knows I'm confused enough myself I don't need to make anyone else feel the same way

How so my friend?

@@Gdad-20 just once you know something I mean really know it then you made it your own when it's just something you believe then it is borrowed God bless you

​@@youtubebane7036 even if you make it your own it was borrowed. this knowing did not originate from you. you are expressing a shared belief at this point that came from other than you. if you borrow a jacket and don't give it back, but instead keep and make it yours. that jacket is still borrowed, whether you want to believe or portray it or not. religion is a perfect example of this.

@@rayuvlight4 I beg to differ. What about knowing yourself? Subjectivity and objectivity are two sides of the same coin and equally as valid and important objectivity is just group subjectivity. Since we are all part of the same universe then there isn't any one of us who can take credit for it not even God as we are all part of God as well and God would not exist without us as we are the infinite number of finite units that God consists of as an infinite Unity which would find it impossible to know an infinite Multiplicity no matter how big or how old God might be God still can't do the impossible which is be an infinite multiplicity without becoming that. That is the very way God learns. To be all knowing God must have learned everything and that is another rule of reality that cannot be broken. Yes how can everything be created unless God knew what it was? That's where we come in. We are the way God matches one-to-one to an infinite number of things when God itself is a Unity. Since God is an infinite Unity God can divide itself into an infinite number of finite units. I even have math that backs this up I am working on my description of reality I don't call it a theory because it's not a theory it's the actual description

You might look into their Expand App. There's a free version and the paid one is around $100 for the year. There is a community function built in to connect with others.

@@EricCoplen thank you I already downloaded it and I look forward to trying out there binaural beat with some headphones this time because at first I didn't know the technology idea behind the whole thing and I just played the videos on my speaker I guess it was pretty soothing music but it didn't do the trick. Thank you my friend. By the way I got a lot of things that you would probably like to talk with me about if you're into physics and metaphysics and things like that especially especially mathematics Consciousness and spirituality. I've been studying these things my whole life and I'm working on a scientifically rigorous Theory of Everything that explains Consciousness gives us quantum gravity and shows the purpose and source of the universe and existence and the nature of God. basically showing how Consciousness is a force of nature equally reel and fundamental as gravity in time and space and energy are and that information is the source of all things and this is why we can't have something from nothing although the universe and creation is cyclic so there's never really something from nothing but there are periods when existence must rest.

There are people teaching it for free

@@binathere2574 Yes there are. Information is readily available. 🤙

I agree. Too rich 4 me .

Rub your eyes. Or command sight now.

@@binathere2574 that's funny. If only it was that easy.

@youtubebane7036 I understand kind of . My daughter has the same problem at times. In the training I've had that is the instruction. Or you should just be determined and force them open. With OBE, one has to be very determined at times. Otherwise, you have no control.

I'll look into it. Thank you 👌💯

Yes! Darius J Wright is genuine and teaches a method to experience OBE's.

^ This. Get Darius, he's gives the most fascinating accounts of his experiences. Shame that he seems to filter what he makes public though. Maybe drill him to give more info than he has in other interviews.

Love him!

Darius is the main man!

That's fascinating and I understand the fear component with letting go of your body.

@@EricCoplen It was not fear of letting go of the body, but fear of what I would encounter (demons, spirits etc.) and if I could get back.

@@filipcza Oh gotcha! Thank you. Yes that's a common one.

If you've found something that works for you then congrats. I'd be curious what the text you mention is?

@@EricCoplen There's not alot of text that remains from that long ago. I can offer few clues, original was written in aramaic and has since been translated to latin, arabic and english, possibly more. It's older than earliest religious texts and it starts with the letter E. If ye seek, ye shall find.

@@DivinityIsPurity The Essenes?

​​​​@@Zephyrus47 no, first word ends in d and theres a website dedicated to providing you to read it for free in english translation, site starts with c.

​@DivinityIsPurity why are you being so reluctant to share?

Wat?

Why r u here

You're welcome 👌

it’s my main meditation app nowadays, it’s truly great. i haven’t found another one like it that incorporates meditation so well with metaphysics / energy work

I already have it.

Glad you enjoyed! I appreciate the feedback 💯👌

Thank you brother! Glad you enjoyed. I appreciate the feedback.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Noted. Thank you for your feedback 💯👌

I agree.

Fair enough. Thank you for the feedback 👌💯

Glad it was helpful!
