Gnostic Meditation Course

Hey, in case anyone else was interested, go here to read plenty info on it:

I've taken one of their courses before, although I probably didn't apply myself as much as I should have. It was nice with lots of step by step instructions. Really great basic techniques to get started. My meditation practice hasn't survived over the years. Even when I do yoga, I meditate for only 5-10 minutes at the end cause I'm always in a hurry to go make breakfast or change diapers, etc. I'd really like to go a little deeper into it. Anyhow, I thought it would be nice to take a course dedicated to meditation. It starts one day after our Dreamgates study, but I think they'll compliment each other nicely.

Thanks for this link Lena. I've really been slacking when it comes to meditation. Seems I'm always so damn busy especially since I've been working out which can take up that free time. I think I might try to give this course a go as well.

This is the same as what used to be gnosticweb, right?

It's the same organization. Seems like it's a new course or maybe I didn't notice it before.

Their AP course is very useful in that it helps teach awareness and concentration which is two neccessary things for having an OOBE. I sure don't agree with some of their teachings though. I took all three courses. I just didn't like the feel of those kids being the teachers, but they were really just parrots and not allowed to give you more than what the Mr Pritchard allowed. People on the forum are threatened to be kicked off if they stepped out of line and some were given the boot, those that had a mind to think for themselves and not depend upon some one else telling them what that can and cannot say or to think for that matter. I would not get to caught up in it. In my opinion it it a cult.

Thanks Linda, yeah, I do remember some controversy going on the other time I was looking into it all. I found their course on Astral Projection pretty sound though and this meditation course looks like it has some solid basic concepts. I'm afraid a lot of movements and leaders out there have some kind of controversy attached At least that's what I found...
