One Month into Hemi-Sync: I Created a 'Sword' with My Imagination. Focus 10 and EBT
Last week, I watched an anime with my son.
It was the final three episodes of the 1980s robot anime, Mashin Eiyuden Wataru.
In it, there was a scene where the final boss, Doakudar, creates red energy between his palms and transforms it into a 'glowing red sword' to fight.

I was struck by a realization.
'This is EBT.'
EBT (Energy Bar Tool).
It is a training item performed in Focus 10, a very early stage of the Hemi-Sync Gateway Experience.
I had once mastered the sensation of 'freely manipulating the energy of imagination' there.
That night, it suddenly occurred to me.
What did Hemi-Sync leave behind for me?
From here on, I would like to write about that introspection over the course of several posts.
At that time, I was not yet divorced.
My ex-wife liked spiritual things.
I was definitely influenced by that.
It was also through her that I encountered Hemi-Sync.
I devoured books, purchased the Gateway Experience, and practiced almost every day.
I somehow managed to reach Focus 10, the first step.
However, I hit a major wall here.
'The body is asleep. The mind is awake.'
I could get that far.
But if I relaxed my consciousness even a little, the sensation would break, and I would return to my normal state of consciousness.
No matter how many times I tried, it was the same.
In the midst of that, there was only one thing I was strangely good at.
It was EBT (Energy Bar Tool).
Actually, I had practiced Qigong in the past,
and I was accustomed to the imagery of gathering Qi to create a 'sphere'.
To put it simply, in Qigong practice, you imagine a 'pearl' between your hands, and if you can feel resistance while holding it, you have succeeded.
Therefore, it was easy for me to create a mass of energy between my hands.

And when I imagined turning it into a 'sword,' it truly became a sword.
I loved this immensely.
'Couldn't I do all sorts of things by creating swords out of Qi?'
I genuinely thought so.
However, the Gateway Experience training included an exercise where you form that energy into a ring, throw it into the darkness, and wait for a reaction.
I tried it many times.
Throw, and wait.
Throw, and wait.
But, in the end, there was never a 'reaction' even once.
I wasn't discouraged.
I just thought, imagery is just imagery after all.
At that moment, I thought:
'No matter how much EBT I do, isn't it possible there's no further development beyond this?'
And so, I stopped Focus 10 and moved on to 12.
If you feel something, clicking the 'like' button would be encouraging.
I would also be very happy if you followed me.
