I used to realize it was a dream in my dream and controlled whatever I wanted. It was thrilling to control my dreams, and I fulfilled my desires that I couldn’t in reality. While researching people’s experiences with controlled dreams, I found a comment from a man that became the starting point of this work. Due to his hard life, he spent a lot of time in virtual reality and training in an out-of-body experience, where he could escape from reality to another world. Astral projection, a kind of an out-of-body experience, is to leave the body and experience another world through meditation. When meditation reaches a certain level, the physicality of your body dissipates, then the boundary between the universe and the self fades.
The world has been controlled by desire, and there is no barrier between virtuality and reality. Today, you can have the transcendental experience which comes in meditation and religion through the technology. Once you focus on your inside, you can feel transcendence as if all the boundaries disappear, and you can easily go to the outside world. If you can immerse yourself in another world, whether in meditation or virtual reality and leave your physical self, what does it mean to have a body? How should we control our bodies? In <~ You Are Limitless ~ 10 Minute Guided Meditation>, I explore these questions and address how we desire, immerse ourselves and accept technology.
