It's interesting to see how people react to you - ignorants will just walk right by you while the semi-aware will either pause as they walk by or subconsciously walk around your expanded body. I've been training in Energy Work for about 10 years now and I'd say I'm at a high intermediate level. I'm even working on a book to explain Energy work lol... I posted a couple chapters (Shielding and Basic Tools) in the Energy Work forum.
The thing with energy is that a lot of the time when you succeed by accident you can't ever reproduce it consciously. It's just like a sudden insight that tells you 'this is something you are able to do', but then you need to work and train to be able to do it consciously. One of my teachers said it's like God planting one corner of a garden and then telling you 'plant the rest'. So don't expect it to just happen again... come at it from a different direction and work at it.
"though i agree that Yamah has a way with words."

It was back in 1998 that i first starting training though i dont feel that time is any indication of how much a person has learnt. In 14 years i may only have learnt what you have in one year. I do feel i had great teachers and i do pretty well at keeping up with others in these areas.
Its hard for me answer if i have experienced expansion as there are many applications for it to be used. The cirlce i study with is very comprehensive when it comes to the three bodies and i have spent some time using the different methods. I dont believe i have ever expanded my aura or if it is even possible or needed. I have experienced expanding my psychical and noetical bodies though. There is also a method in reiki where you can expand you psychical hand to reach into the psychical body of a client. When i have done this the person jerked as they felt it when i grabbed at the affected areas, but i never physically touched them. There is also an excercise where you consciously expand to cover an area that i have practiced.
I can relate to your interactive experiences with passers by. Not only did they pause as they passed me but complete strangers would stop and tell me their deep woes. There was not even time for a hello or my name is jim, they just let it out. I heard this voice one day say" i dont like my job". I turned around and it was santa in his christmas suit from the shopping mall and he proceeded to lay it on me...lol. It was hard to keep a straight face
. I have to make a conscious effort to withdraw at times.
Ill check out your threads and if you like you can tell me what you think about the excercises i put up for Rena.
