Due to certain vibrational levels of higher LOC being too high for normal protoplasm to handle -- the energy of unconditional love can get pretty intense for just ordinary neurons to process -- a entirely new subtle energy body begins to build up that supports those higher vibrational levels, including an etheric brain for storing "spiritual" information.

I'm still not sure how this ties into reincarnation -- my theory is that once people go over 200, they begin to have this subtle etheric body/brain, but it's possible to go back below 200 and thus have it become "dormant" again in the next lifetime. That would explain why I had a sub-200 LOC while still having some supra-200 characteristics.

I was actually into the whole self-help phase, which makes sense since at the time I was just beginning to peak into Courage and raising my LOC up above 200. Out of nowhere I suddenly had a small mental orgasm in my brain for a couple minutes, and I couldn't stop smiling cause I was feeling so good -- probably the same phenomenon of "clicking the amygdala forward". I actually had no idea what that was about, until I heard about this and I saw the connection

Yeah, I think everything that happens in the physical world is just the automatic consequence/correlate of our choices/intentions made in consciousness, which is in the spiritual world. What we see as frontal lobe / whole brain activity is just the result of consciousness choosing to engage in rational/spiritual activity over emotional / ego instincts, i.e. our consciousness contains our body and how it operates, and not vice versa.

I really find it fascinating how the spiritual/formless world ties into the physical/form world so nicely, and how it's so interconnected It really is a miracle when you think about it. Though I find it unfortunate that the great majority of people are still tied to believing in objective/physical reality as the source of their experience -- they'd have a lot more success by delving deeper into the cause-effect chain and working from consciousness itself

On the other hand, I tried the amygdala clicking visualization and it did seem to have a noticeable effect, so maybe it really does work. Who knows if its placebo or not -- I guess it really doesn't matter in the end Another handy spiritual first-aid tool to take you out of a bad spot
