swapping bodies

[saints56]

Hey can someone please help me swap bodies? i want to try it out.

The short answer: No

The long(ish) answer: There is no such thing. The best you could hope for is for some one to hypnotize you into thinking you had a different body...seeing a different one if you looked in the mirror for example, but even that would take many intense sessions and the best you could hope for is to experience the "swap" while in trance but not while awake. Anybody who tells you otherwise is either a) stupid b) yanking your chain c) been reading too much hypno-fantisy or d) A&C

Take your pick

I suppose if two people were familiar enough with each other's personalities, then they could think they have swapped bodies (by subconsciously replacing their personality with the other). That would be the experiential equivalent of swapping bodies. Technically, it would be much more similar to Dissociative Identity Disorder.

I sense that this thread was inspired by Senna's thread. I gave Senna the benefit of the doubt and treated her seriously. I tend to treat everything seriously until it is proven otherwise. After some private message exchange with Senna when this whole "bodyswapping" fiasco was happening on the forums, I became convinced that Senna was not serious about the claims she was making about bodyswapping. I remain unconvinced that Senna was ever serious about her claims of swapping bodies with anybody. I also remain unconvinced that Senna's claims were ever made for any reason other than to get attention, or to engage in pure fantasy. I doubt that Senna ever did or ever had any intent to swap bodies with anybody, whether the experience be real or hallucinatory.

I hate to disparage another forum user, even if that user is currently inactive. But I also hate for people to be filled with unrealistic expectations based on claims which are most likely false to begin with. I can't recommend that anybody should treat Senna's claims as anything other than wishful thinking at best, and outright trolling of the forums at worst.

Hey VeryGnawty, that could be a file too. Maybe just a guided experience, maybe legitimate hallucination, but either way, there's probably people here that would be into that. Personally, I find the idea of the subject trying to take advantage of a hypnotist only for the tables to turn... well, it's pretty cool.

And tanyaslave is right, full-body transplants do exist. However, due to existential and logistical issues, it only even considered an option in treating quadriplegics with multiple system failure.
I'd imagine waking up in someone else's body would have plenty of potential for insanity, though. People already get that with face transplants...

Hello,

Ok, I guess its better to attempt to dispell the myths and misconceptions flying around this thread. So here goes.

Some of what has been talked about is possible. Actually it is the swapping part that makes it difficult. It requires two trained individuals with an incredible amount of talent, ability, energy and a buttload of luck.

What has been practiced using secrets that are jelously guarded is someone transfering themselves to the body of another. I don't know the exact details of how it is done and wouldnt tell you if I did, but it involves someone's essence, or life frorce leaving there own body, sort of similar to the way certain people can engage in Astral Projection, and once outside the body the person must then locate an appropriate individual and enter thier body. The body they leave behind will remain alive for a time, so long as thier essence does not leave it permanantly or is not gone for too long.

In order to make the entry permanant the person who "projected" themselves into another must then take control and force the other out. Generally this means the death of the person forced out, at least in any meaninful sence. Thier former body will still be alive but it will not belong to them and will no longer have any connection to them.

The "person" forced out, being unable to re-enter thier own body and unable to find another body to inhabit or not knowing how, even should such a body be available, usually wanders aimlessly. Typically the essence of the displaced person goes insane and may eventually find its way into some lower life form, perhaps a small mammal or reptile. This of course is difficult to confirm and probably rare. The most probably outcome for the displaced essence is that they just die or fade away.

Once the essence of the person who took over the new body has forced out the bodies former ownert and has overcome the attempts of that bodies former owner to try to re-enter, the change becomes complete and the body they left behind dies.

This technique could concieveably be used to swap bodies with another willing individual who possesses the proper skills and abilities. If all goes well each could leave thier body and enter the other but the timing and other logistics are so intricate and need to be so precice that what is most likely to happen is that the timing will be a bit off and one of the parties will find that the body they are intending to enter has become deceased before they can complete the transfer.

Thus, in all likelyhood only one party will be able to sucsessfully transfer and the other will be dead. That is why there has been little work done in this area. Mistakes are usually fatal to one of the parties and as one might expect that discourages experimentation or practice. It also explains the preference for those with the knowlege talent and power to select the body of an unwilling and unknowing individual, force them out, leaving them to fend for themselves and take over thier body. Even if someone suspects foul play there is no way at all for them to prove it.

So there you have it. As with all knowlege, it should be used responsibly. Please be responsible with this information.

Regards,

Sarnoga.

The Ginyu/Frieza sagas were the height of Dragonball Z awesomeness. Almost every episode involving Namek was pure win.

The bodyswap thing was cool. But to be honest, the Frieza transformations were the best. Frieza's final form looks so awesome...

Although I can't recall any film from the early days of cinema, two television programs from the 60's immeadiately came to mind. One is The Avengers and the other, oddly enough, is The Flintstones. In one episode, respectively, a machine is used where a device is placed atop one's head and then the indivual brainwave patterns are transferred from one brain to the other.

Loooooooooooooooool

That site could not be any more fake. The 'actual videos' are hilarious, and just try to count all the typos it has...

Of course, by 'fake', I mean that the products are not intended to do what they say. I have absolutely no doubt that you can nevertheless send them money; that much is real.

Wouldn't it be easier to use hypnosis to persuade each of the subjects that their body is now the other person's body?

[saints56]

Well I've heard it can be achieved but its not easy brain transfrence does seem promising but to make such a file would take 300 years to transfer your info to someone else's brain it seems only astral is a reltable way to switch so ill try that way
