Object Connecting

[mangakid19]

I once read that if you did something a certain way for a while you would be able to feel as if you were the object. Is this possible?

Erm... what? I think you skipped a couple of sentences in there. Please make it clearer as to what you're asking. I'm thinking a form of subconscious suggestion, but I really can't understand you. ^_^;;

I have a habit of confusing people, don't I?

Well, what I mean is this: (Example for the beach)
1) If you go out and lie on the ground then feel your body, but don't move. Just visualize every part. Actually think about the feel of every part of your body. How the warm sand feels, how the cool ocean breeze blows over your body, how the sunlight warms you.
2) Once you get to the point where you can really feel your surroundings in detail, stay still and connect with the sand. Feeel how the sun feels on it, how the breeze gently blows it around, and feel the grass in it (If any). Actually feel out every blade of grass.
3) When you finaly feel as the sand, feel as the sand as an extension of your body, but don't feel it as an extension. Feel it as part of you body, as if it was there before. Don't think of it as an outside object.

Well, this isn't exact, but it should give enough detail into the subject.

yeah, extending your awarness might help with that. search around psipog for the article

You mean feeling the energy of targeted object? Connecting with it in that way? Yes, it is possible, I use it to perform TK . Just feel it as it is your energy and than try to move it!. For everything is slightly different, but: fire, water, earth and air are basic elements and difference in feeling energy betwen so differnt elemant/materia is really high. That is partially the reason why some people have difficulty to practice different element controll- it si completely different than the one they can controll! For me, it is even more difficult to controll water, as i'm used to practice with fire and electricity (i started both of them at the same time), and I think I could gain greater results if I started to practice with one element and than another.

- I hope it was what you wanted

I know what you mean, but what I meant is that the object basically joins the body. The person doing this on sand would feel the sand moving underneath the feet of anyone walking by as the sand itself. Not by feeling its energy.
