This project began as a way to make inroads into neuroscience. Attempts to treat autism have been at a standstill. Early detection is the focus with no research conducted on treatment. Little progress has been made in depression and the damage from trauma. This can result form battlefield injury, or traffic accident. The work has grown beyond expectations. At the time of this video I had a different focus. The aim is the same. Currently their is more topics to explore. If interested in this work or how to get involved please contact me.

BREATHING ACCESS TO SUPERSENSIBLE WORLDS Swedenborg 1688-1772 has explored the use of breathing in the creation process. He developed a method to breathe in a scarcely perceptible way. Such a practice resulted in a rapid increase in theta waves. This can occur during states of dreaming. Visions can occur when theta waves are increased. This is observed in the trance state. This control of breath is a way to activate the pineal gland. Indeed an ongoing work involving artists who paint with the melody of music are experiencing changes in breathing patterns. This occurs in a dramatic way with artists that have Synesthesia. We can develop a program to understand how the breathing process is involved in the act of creation. Rama Prasad outlined the process utilized. The effects involve changes in both the brain and the spinal ganglion. A way for science to catch up can come by collaboration with artists involved in their crafts. Reference Painting by Carl Frederik von Breda (1759-1818)

West Chester, PA: Swedenborg Foundation Pranayma studies using fMRI dubai-psychologist.com/pranayama-exercises-monitored-by-functional-mri/ We go about not considering how images work on the mind. The space we occupy does exert a very important affect on our moods. Image then how the brain must feel when it is in a familiar place. The use of the arch is promoted as a Roman obsession. This may not be a proper historical account as to where the arch originated. The dome observed in buildings tends to give the impression of the human skull. Domes exits in various buildings. Such works of art are laboratories dedicated to the mind and spirit. It was once reported that alchemists in Paris would gather together and meet to discuss the results of their experiments. Their conversations were decorated by the images that paid homage to the mind. These images can still be seen inside the cathedral of North-Dame. The minds of these dedicated workers were happy as they were surrounded by familiar images. When selecting a work environment. Choose the shapes that make you feel comfortable.

Reference http://www.vivo.colostate.edu/hbooks/pathphys/endocrine/otherendo/pineal.html We can work with three states of consciousness in our day to day thinking. Just as a trinity. This can be described as the objective self, subjective self, and the cooperative self. The objective self refines from the harsh criticisms and finds solutions. The subjective self is quick to blame when things do not go right. The use of the pronoun I or self is a frequent device in expression. The cooperative is the glue that holds the objective and subject selves together. More specifically the alchemical model distinguishes three functional worlds. They are Mercury, Sulfur, and Salt. The Mercury refers to the superconscious, Sulfur maps to the self-conscious, and Salt the subconscious. This may at first seem simple but much is left out.

Reference https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/22/Da_Vinci_Vitruve_Luc_Viatour.jpg The alchemcial Mercury involves Spirit. The alchemical Sulfur includes the Soul. The alchemical Salt is pointed out to the body. This is represented in art as a unicorn and a stag in. a forrest. The image is found in a book entitled the lambspring. Written in 1625 by Lucas Jennis. Believe to be published in Frankfurt.

With no words. The artist would find the study of the text useful for the motifs contained therein. The stag represents the soul, the unicorn represents the spirit. The Forrest represents the body that these two creatures dwell in. The unification of Mercury (spirit) and Sulfur (soul) is depicted with a Basilisk. Such a union is referred to as the "child of the philosopher." The design shows two different animal components. A dragon and a rooster. This is the nature of why chimera are created. To demonstrate the achievement of unifying different principles. Our imaginative sensation is different today than it was in the past. Notice art causes the viewer to project out our thoughts and ideas. This can be observed when a painting is viewed, or a concert of music is attended. When Typhon slew Osiris, a trip to Phonecia was required by the "Goddess Isis". She brought back from her trip a new era. This was the abstract way of sensing the world. The power of the perceiving by visuals was transformed into a new form. The advantage of the abstract. This event was recorded by the positions of the Sun and Moon. The autumn sun was 17 degrees of scorpio and the full moon rose in Taurus with the Pleiades. Reference https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9d/Papyrus_Ani_curs_hiero.jpg The use of an alphabet eliminates the need for the imagination. One can see some examples of Phonecian script above. Compare it with the picture script directly above it. This results in the trap to axiomatize our human knowledge. This is impossible our thoughts still come from higher worlds. Despite attempts to isolate the viewer from the sensation when studying natural phenomena we must include imagination. Any work begins with a thought. When we learn how to use the imagination a new era will begin. The pictures used in written languages had their origins in the patterns of the stars. The people felt them to hold a sacred quality. Pictures such as dog, dragon, snake, and so on. Reference https://www.omniglot.com/images/writing/phonecian.gif When the performer calls us toward the stage. The members of the audience change their mental archetype. A change in lights may occur, or the curtain is removed to reveal the beautifully painted backdrops. The audience feels somehow that the show is about to begin. In a temple a song is used when a priest or priestess approaches the altar. This has the same effect upon the the people at the temple. This results in a change of scenes and signals for a new event for our minds. In 1916 at Zurich's Waag Hall a performer named Hugo Ball announced to the audience the following: "I shall be reading poems that are meant to dispense with conventional language." He explained that his objective would be to purify the current language then used at the time. His remarks are believed to refer to the poems as to have the ability to cleanse the language: " ...to cleanse this accused language of all its filth that clings to it, as to the hands of stockbrokers worn smooth by coins." Like those workers that maintain the altar Ball requested strongly that the hearers to try to hear as he put it. " The Word, the Word, the word, outside your domain. We are like a member of a lower dimension, such as a flatlander. Try to use, or develop the senses for a new dimension. Try Up! Such a word is up ? I never heard of this word. What better way to understand the map of consciousness than with sound. Silver wire used for recording sounds.

Abbot archive.org/details/flatlandromanceo00abbouoft https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/level5/Abbott/paper.pdf 仙童引財 (Xiān tóng yǐn cái) is an image one can obtain for the room, home, office, cell phone, on your person, computer or even place of business. This is a very important image. You might say we all carry this image. There are some variations. The one below lacks a figure being carried in a chair, but is replaced with a complex of buildings on top of the cart. The figures are well know in western Qabalah. This is the Tree of Life (Etz ha Chayim) The figures of the 10 Sepirot, including 1 Daath and 1 Ain Soph Aur are present. (12 figures in all) An important lesson to the esotericist is that the angels of the Sepirot are cooperating. There is no conflict. By allowing this, the tree of life can work freely. Blood and air will flow without obstructions. The use of instruments such as bells and trumpets signal the awaking of the chakras on all worlds as is often mentioned in the Revelation of St John. Much esoteric knowledge in the west is not clear. The work of other areas need to be reintegrated for the practitioner to benefit. Much remains as tree stumps emerging after a heavy fog. An example of the tree of life diagram draw in as a two dimensional object. This is misleading. The structure is multi-diemsional. Models exist of a three dimensional structure. Again this is also misleading as higher dimensions exist in the diagram. The use of planet names refer to intelligences and not physical planets. The planet Earth is not marked on the diagram. Earth is where Malkuth is indicated at the bottom of the image. Matthew 5:3 refers to specifically to Earth. This can be translated in English as Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. The reference to Kingdom refers to what is labelled as Kether or Crown in English. Some books indicate the Crown as Pluto. An example of the clouds still present in esoteric spiritual research. Look in the mirror while you meditate. Perhaps it will come to you what the figure in the painting represents.
I have been ask to write this by my readers for some time. Terence McKenna had pointed out the application of Psilocybin was a laboratory proof that by ingesting the subject would observe gnomes. The gnome refers to the Mahabhuta -Prithhvi or earth. This is not a physical earth but a form of energy. This idea enforces the desire to take something to achieve a goal. The neglect of the mind and body in the process weakens the operator. A sense that a physical object will upon taking will solve a perceived defect is a distortion. There is less talking and more taking in the approach. This makes potential practitioners desirous of substances that a shaman, or magician "maybe" using. The techniques utilize by those upon the altar and the stage are open to all of us. A clue lies in what Alchemists have often stated that the Greek epic, Jason and the Golden Fleece, is not a myth but an entrance into the art of the Great Work. The Golden Fleece refers to Aries, the Ram, which is a metaphor for the head. The ship the hero travelled was the Argo. The ship is a metaphor for the human skull. The slain dragon describes the activation of the pineal gland. The names Jason and Heracles are actually ciphers to be used in breathing and meditation exercises with the aim of promoting control of higher mental states. The use of the names refer to the event when the oar breaks in the story. The greek pronunciations are required as the correct sounds are important. The method is similar to the yogic Sadhaka and Samadhi process of alternate-nostril breathing. The effects of breathing create massive changes in brain theta waves. It is these changes that cause the experiences. The advantage of the breathing exercises is that the operator has control over the sensations. Going further the key we possess to understanding ourselves is present within us. No external substances are required. The Golden Fleece is more than an epic. It provides Yogic instruction toward control of the mind. Photo: Jason and the Argonauts, by Charles de La Fosse

The frame is gold. and the three main characters all wear hats suggesting the pineal gland is activated. The painting is regarded, by some ,as a source of great strength for the viewer's will.
