Inner space journey

Imagine you must command a manned spaceship taking off from Earth next week. 

• What physical and mental exercises would you do to get ready?
• What would you study for the mission in this week?
• What would you prioritise?
• If you are not sure of your return, what would you do to wrap up your life here?
• How would you check your preparations, however minimal they may be?

Going inward is similar in many ways. But there are huge differences, and some similarities:

• You have to restart using disused abilities. The sooner the better. You cannot go inward only by looking at or doing outward things.
• Mental srength and muscles build by going ever deeper and deeper inward
• But relinquish more and more outward - bodybuilding - stuff to go to subtler inner levels
• Yet, mens sana in corpore sano, your mental and physical instruments must function efficiently
• Ultimately, you have to let go of everything you know in order to become that which underlies not only you, but every living being in the universe
• If you cannot let go of "you", you cannot go to the subtlest level - as simple as that
• Everyone came - manifested - from the subtlest level, everyone can go back
• They simply must have interest in doing so
• There are many fellow inward travellers at various levels of subtlety
• You will be helped in ways you cannot imagine now
• You will, in turn, help others similarly
• This is a cooperative journey for all humans - keep good logs and share them
• Time is not a concern. If you let go immediately and sufficiently, you will reach the subtlest level right away.
• Staying at the subtler levels is a problem. Your instruments are not used to turning the other way.
• "Work as if you have all the time in the world, but none to waste"
