HI AMA-GI thanks for the training,
Have you heard of
http://www.theintentionexperiment.co...xperiment.htm?
Their intention tips are very simple and I wonder if it is the 99% disinformation.
I have practiced this so far, not very much, only when I can. My family is very conservative, Catholic and they denounce meditation.
Here was their last email.
1. Choose your intention space.
Conditioning your space appears to magnify the effectiveness of your intentions. Choose a place to carry out your intentions that feels comfortable and use it every time.
2. Practice meditating.
In order to 'power up' to peak intensity, you must first slow your brain waves down to a meditative, or 'alpha', state of light meditation or dreaming - when the brain emits frequencies (measured
on an EEG machine) of 8-13 hertz (cycles per second).
Sit in a comfortable position. Many people like to sit upright in a hard-backed chair, with their hands placed on their knees, or sit on the floor cross-legged. Begin breathing slowly and rhythmically in through the nose and out through the mouth (slowly blow all the air out), so that your in-breath is the same length as your out-breath. Breathe through your diaphragm.
Repeat this every 15 seconds, but ensure that you are not overexerting or straining. Carry on for 3 minutes and then keep observing it. Work up to 5 or 10 minutes. Begin to focus your
attention just on the breath.
Practice this repeatedly.
3. Practice mindfulness.
Once you have achieved your 'alpha state', maintain clear moment-to-moment awareness of what is happening internally and externally, rather than coloring your interpretation with your
emotions or being engaged 'elsewhere', deep in thought. Be present and attentive to what is, with all of your senses. One good means of harnessing your mind to the present is to 'come into your body' and feel your body posture. Be aware of all the smells, textures, colours, and sensual feelings you are experiencing.
4. Establish a connection.
Practice establishing an empathetic connection with the object of your intention. During our experiment, attempt to 'merge' with the target. Enter into a zone where you relax your sense of 'I' and you feel a merging with the target and The Field.
5. Be Compassionate
Encourage a sense of universal compassion during your intention session by focusing your attention to your heart, as though you are sending light to it most want to be healed. Then direct your loving thoughts to the target.
6. State Your Intention
In your meditative state, state the intention exactly as we have posted it on the experiment page. You'll be asked to hold it for 10 minutes. Keep returning to the intention we have posted. Imagine it already occurring.
See the desired outcome in your mind's eye - with your five senses.
Some of us think in images, others through words, still others through sounds, touch or the spatial relationship between objects. If you aren't especially visual, it's enough just think about an
intention, without a mental picture, and simply to create an impression, a feeling or a thought.
7. Believe
Belief in the power of intention is crucial. Keep firmly fixed in your mind the desired outcome and do not allow yourself to think of failure. If you don't believe this experiment is going to work, please don't participate.
8. Move Aside
After stating your intention, let go of the outcome. At this point, you may sense that the intention is taken over by some greater force. Think of it as a request you are sending to the universe.
