I also have some disagreements with ol Bob. I think you can access the "Big Mind" and play on that level but you still have a life to manage which includes toiletries and other mundane tasks.
If he is so controlling of his material, which he was on his early material as well I would think that he himself has never shifted from Phase 1.
It's also ridiculous that you cannot use phase one technics when in phase two. How limiting is that? Just because Bob said so?
Some aspects of this type of technic, whether you are releasing emotions or de-energizing holograms, you are working with tangible energy. When you release or de-energize this energy you create a vacuum. If you do not replace it with something of your own design you will get whatever gets sucked in to replace it.
Hence, Bob says that you will see a change. No kidding Bob. The, do nothing, phase two vacuum filling energy thing. Just push the "Surprise Button" that Bill Harris has spoke of is pretty much the samething.
My problem with many of these technics are that you Release but the energy is not replaced. Now they are working with "Reclaim the Power" which I think is kind of bogus. it's like trying to get money back after it has been spent. Or maybe we can reclaim the gas energy we have burnt up in our vehicles. Not happening.
Maybe my belief system doesn't have the faith to make it happen but I find it much easier to get get a fresh batch of energy someplace else that is much more beneficial. As a good example for reclaiming energy is given in Spring Forest Qigong whether you are doing the active exercises or doing the healing technics. Maybe have a nutritious meal. Maybe have a plan.
The only way this might improve things is if you are looking for improvement when applying the technic. When the vacuum is made put your expectation in there. The better defined your expectation is, the better the results.
