I'm in a float tank right now, let's try an experiment!

Is gravity an illusion?

(sorry, but had a few drinks among other things)

soulwaxer

Subjectively gravity is very real, objectively everything in the material universe is an illusion/simulation.

See if you can find a doorway.

If you can, tell us what you see on the other side.

seems to defeat the entire purpose of a float tank lol

outside stimuli and all that jazz

but why not, whats the lotto numbers

Not really, I have one in my home and can get in when I want.

The question is why are you setting me up with an impossible question, no one could tell you that, there must be some cosmic rules against it.

a reply to: HUMBLEONE

Whether you get this job or not isn't as important as your reasons for applying. Follow your heart and your passions, not just a paycheck.

So obviously you have a phone or laptop in the "float tank" (lol) with you?

Yep, latched on the wall.

Will do, and I'll make it my last reply for this experience, thanks for indulging me everyone.

a reply to: jaws1975

Nvm lol

Youve already defeated the process. To read this and type you probably have broken the method to where youre not in thougth totally, nor darkness. Then you may as well be in your bathtub.

An open float tank is not the same as experiencing sensory depravation to travel inward conciously.

Fail.

Who wins the Superbowl?
Who wins the U.S. Presidential election IN 2016?

I'm in a closed float tank, which I was in for an hour and a half before starting this thread. I'll give you its distracting to go back and forth from floating to typing, but I was in the zone and thought it would be fun.

Fail?

I call floating blissfully for hours winning!

Unfair question, the logical answer would be skippy,

Because Skippy is a famous dog name?

After further contemplation in the tank I have realized that anything I had to say is pointless in this endeavor. What is useful is for you to evaluate your own comment or questions. Why did you ask the question you did, or why did you make the comment, what emotions if any did you have. What were you hoping the result would be?

Some of you had cautious curiosity and others asked loaded questions to ensure failure. I find this very interesting that so many people want to bring others down, instead of lifting them up. I guess that maybe the microcosm of the macrocosm when we look at all the problems on this planet.

Anyhow, thanks again everybody for participating.

BTW Bleeeeep, I didn't see a door but I did see a portal that I went through, looked like the wormhole from contact. It felt like I was on a water slide.

a reply to: SkippyBalls

No, because your member name is skippyballs.

Does your "float tank" closely resemble a bath tub?

Because I live in a four bedroom, 21/2 float tank house if you want to get right down to it.

a reply to: kosmicjack

Great, now add in 800 pounds of epsom salt in each one and you'll be half way there.

I thought it would be fun to try to tap into a higher consciousness while floating and try to answer some of your questions. I would ask that it be thoughtful and mean something to you.

I don't claim to be psychic or anything, just want to have some fun and try to connect to a potential positive energy.

BTW my grammar and such may be poor as I am typing through 2 plastic bags.

So ask a question and I'll stew on it for a bit in the tank and see what, if anything happens.

Being on your phone and taking questions goes against the whole point the whole experience, you have to clear your mind and relax. Playing on your phone, answering questions and thinking is just a silly waste of time.

a reply to: jaws1975

LMAO!

What's so wrong with being silly and wasting time every once in a while? Maybe you should try it some time.

How long will you be in the tub? Are you wrinkly yet?
And we are still waiting on those lottery numbers.
Does my bum look big in these jeans?
