"Instant Total Consciousness

(batteries not included)

No, I'm not kidding. There really are ways to almost instantly alter your consciousness without a guru or drugs.

The simplest method is to don a pair of headphones where one earpiece plays a tone of 400 Hz and the other plays a tone of about 404 Hz. This sets up a beat frequency of 4 Hz inside your skull. Your brain "tunes in" to this frequency and starts resonating at 4 Hz. Don't try to just pump in 4 Hz to both ears because your ears can't hear much below 20 Hz, so the effect would be wasted.

You can also wear a pair of goggles which have flashing lights mounted on them. Make the lights flash at 4-7 Hz and you've got an instant tripper machine.

An extremely low current oscillating at 4-7 Hz with electrodes placed directly on the skin will also work. One guy in the business sells these small, cloth-wrapped metal plates that you wet down and stick in your socks. Then you carry a little box the size of a Walkman around which has wires attached to the metal plates. The box puts out a 5-200 microampere current oscillating at around 7 Hz. A very port- able tripping device.

For those of you into sensory depravation, try the Lilly Tank. Just like in the movie Altered States, this tank will change the frequency at which your brain operates. Also try Ganzfeld Goggles. A pair of old diving goggles covered with blue toilet paper will do. Just lay back on a bed with these goggles on and stare into a light bulb. The toilet paper turns the light from the bulb into a uniform glowing blue field. Since your eyes have nothing to focus on, your brain keeps itself busy by hallucinating. (This effect may take from 5-20 minutes to occur.)

All of these ideas are actual products which you can buy. Since the waveform and amplitude of the sound or electricity is fairly important for good results, commercial mind machines are better than most "homebrew" jobs. If you'd like more detailed information on these devices read Mega Brain by Michael Hutchison, published by Ballentine Books, available in the Science/Psychology section of your local bookstore. That's where I got all of this info from. For purchasing information on the machines I've mentioned write to Megabrain, P.O. Box 1059, Cooper Station, New York, NY, 10276. "

how exactly would one measure the hz. of music though?

[NOTEHOOK]

I dunno there's all kinds of programs (I'll post one when I find one that has songs and shit for free or one that's popular enough to be on torrentspy)

Yeah i was wondering the same thing. The only thing i could try would be the goggles and blue toliet paper, but it sounds kinda stupid like it would just fuck up my eyes. and i dont have blue toliet paper...who the hell does? lol

[NOTEHOOK]

ya it's retarded

[rastabill89]

blue toliet paper?????????????????????? huh???

i'm just taking a stab at this. i'm thinking that the music or sounds have to be previously measured. hertz measure the amount of frequency and frequency is the amount of occurences within a given time period (usually one second).

i would imagine that's why monks "ummm" when they are meditating?

i'm just theorizing.
