To be the first on your block to announce this highly documented
experimental new Tantra Sadhana is quite an event, which I would
encourage the curious to investigate. And no one will try to get your
money. The information is free. In real science, armchair speculation
is not a substitute for Experimental Research. Jai Om. - Sw.

Hello, Joseph.
Don't worry. I use Scientific Method, and defining terms is an
excellent idea. Now to your questions. By "Spirit", I mean Out-of-
Body-Experience, Astral Projection, Soul Travel, so I mean "spirit
outside the body". This "Inner Sight and Sound" of what is not of our
three-dimensional physical universe or not perceived with the
physical senses, is sought as a very necessary adjunct to one's final
departure from the body, either as a physical energy which is
transferred over to the Spirit, or by the benefit of having already
familiarized one's consciousness to the state of being out-of-body,
presuming those unfamiliar with the After-Death Experience might have
a negative reaction to an unwelcome surprise. People who have Near-
Death-Experiences usually report that they feel calmer, more
confident, happier and have less fear of their impending demise.
So, "Spirituality" should have positive effects, emotionally and
intellectually, while making the consciousness of the subject more
psychic and psychedelic. If there is enough of the "Undefined
Energy", the subject could even acquire psychic E.S.P. powers and
even mind-over-matter. If the subject acquires his Spirituality
through some sort of a Physical Purification, there could be
additional physical benefits, such as curing of diseases,
rejuvenation, etc. The two main doctrines are meditation (with little
physical benefit), and the Theory of Rasa Tantra, which is a
physical approach, entirely experimental, and easily enhanced by
meditation. Other than these two approaches, there only remains
thousands of rituals and millions of idols. The "WAY" is Scientific
Method. If such logic and integrity is lovingly applied, all of us
could understand the "esoteric" Truth about how to attain this thing
called "Salvation". For a logical Scientific Approach to this
subject, please go to:
