May The Force Be With You!
Whether you love or hate Star Wars, it is fair to say that it has greatly influenced pop-culture and the society of today.
Me? I like it. I’m not fanatical, don’t get dressed up, play with figurines or hang out in chat rooms. I’ve just a really fond memory of going to the cinema as a small child to see the first Star Wars on the big screen.
At the time, everything about it was Amazing! And not just the Visual FX of the light saber or those X-Wing fighters trying to blow up the Death-Star.
What grabbed my attention most was the fight between Good and Evil. The white energy of Luke Skywalker or the Dark energy of Darth Vader…
And the fact that there was an entity called THE FORCE.
My memory is a little sketchy, but Luke lands in a swamp, finds Yoda, and while blind-folded must deflect laser shots from a round floating thing in training. (To be able to see without sight)
Then they walk into the swamp and he must ‘raise’ his fighter jet from the swamp with mind power. (I will confess at this point there were several times I tried to levitate my dog… without success) But those were the things that captivated my attention.
At the time I thought it was possible. But when my dog got bored of my intense stares I thought maybe it was all made up… But I was wrong.
Technology has caught up with imagination.
Introducing the Star Wars Force Trainer!
Relax and concentrate, command your alpha and beta waves to levitate the blast ball to progress from Padawan to Jedi Master. Once you master the toy of toys you will be the Jedi Master.
So how does the Force Trainer actually work, you ask?
Force Trainer Headset: The wireless headset that you slip over your head reads your brainwaves through a small sensor that gets placed lightly on your forehead.
The sensor then determines the differences between your alpha, beta, gamma and delta waves.
This is what allows a chip inside the Force Trainer base unit to use a mathematical algorithm to interpret the data and translate it to physical action – which in this case moves the Training Sphere into different sections of the cylinder.
How the Force Training Sphere Moves: It’s really is much like the concept of practicing the Force as you see in the films.
The deeper you are able to concentrate and focus, the more you will be able to move the Training Sphere. The device will interpret different levels of focus rather than being just one big on/off switch.
After your brainwaves are translated via computer chip a fan inside the base of the Force Trainer gets activated, that is what actually lifts the ball.
As you move successfully through each of the 15 different training levels, you will also activate Yoda’s Force tips and other sound effects.

Now if you were a true Star Wars fan I’m sure you already know of this. For the others, I don’t expect you to run out and grab one at $250.
I just wanted to bring it to your attention, as it is a significant development in ‘what is real’. A movie Concept of the mind is now on the shelf at the toy store. We can practice using ‘the power of our mind’ to influence the world around us – with directly visible results. I think that is amazing!
So, what does the future hold?
I’m sure the military has played with the ‘Force Trainer’, but what about ‘spiritualists’.
Will products become available to help us develop our spiritual power?
Will I be able to compare my ‘power’ to another?
Will this development be a good or bad thing for us?

I’m not sure if this does work. If it does, however, I think we could use it not in competition with others but with ourselves. How far down can we go before falling asleep. Also, by monitoring our own internal signals as we watch our brain waves, we could develop the skills to bring our meditaion practice just where we want it to be, without any gizmo. It would be great do know

I am working on my spiritual power everyday with meditations. I have made progress, however I have a ways to go until I have what I want to achieve. I have made a lot of changes in life as a result of past meditations. I want to make many more changes and I know it will take time.
I think we will always be ‘works in progress’. I have seen people that “amaze” me with their skills and abilities, and they talk in humble tones of having so much to learn. As long as you are pointed in the right direction – and making progress … then everything is just perfect

I Have been meditating for the past 8 yars and I have found that the more you meditate the more your spiritual power is developed. These have helped me to change drastically (for the better) and this also appears to radiate around me.
hi …i was interested how your spiritual power has developed?
I still can’t levitate dogs, but my life is definitely evolving in positive ways! I think a good barometer is how ‘light’ you feel. Raising your vibration… Sure there are ups and downs – and it’s hard to directly compare to exactly how you felt one year ago… But I am smiling now – so that’s a good thing!
Hi Nigel, in answer to your final questions, why would one want to compare to anothers personal power?
We all have our own strengths and weaknesses, depending upon our own life situation and personal story…
In relationship to products, the answer could well be yes, but not in the context that you may imagine… if anything the product,’Awakening the Avatar’ is a guide to reaching one’s full human potential, not only in the areas of spiritual development but also more importantly in ones’ capacity to grow without limitations…
Be Ready, Be Open & The Universe’s Riches Will Appear To You…
Warm regards

I think spiritual development with meditation is subtle. Its not like an athlete who has just clocked 2 seconds faster than their previous best time – and can feel immediate and certain progress. Meditation is life changing. Sure its nice to have a meditation moment of true clear thought, but the test is not in how still you can sit… the tests are when someone cuts you off in traffic or a colleague has done you wrong. How you react to emotional situations is a better measure of growth. Nigel Coates.
This sounds like it could be a type of neurofeedback therapy/training. If so, it’s great that they are finding ways to incorporate it into fun activities for kids (and adults). Sometimes meditation can be difficult for people. It’s great that people can focus on the ball, which gives them immediate feedback on their level of concentration/control of their brain waves. They can train their brain to produce the brain waves needed to de-stress, etc. New technology is usually pretty expensive – maybe the price will come down a bit in time.
Gosh, I think that’s amazing! You do raise some important questions however. But anything can be used for good or evil… but I personally would love to give this a try to train my brain. Thanks for sharing.
Yes, if they have released this as a toy to the public … Im sure the world’s military have been playing with it for some time. It’s funny/scary to think that sci-fi movies may not stay ‘fiction’ forever. Nigel.
