Quote:I couldn't agree more Ed, the body is our vehicle, our spaceship if you will. It is the carrier of whatever it is we truly are - consciousness for the sake of argument. If this is correct and we're on the same wavelength (forgive the awful pun please), then we can agree that what is to be transported is this consciousness or mind.
If pushed I would probably ague that methods of transporting or projecting this mind or consciousness have been used and developed and honed over aeons and that the pathways of exploration of that other time and other place are already well trod and marginally explored too (as much as it is possible to explore the infinite using the finite as a carrier).
And I would further posit that the methods of transportation/projection are readily available; the only decision being to select which method is most suitable to each one of us - based on our nature and being (whatever that is?).
But I might well be barking up the entirely wrong tree in which case forgive me.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
