>>42>tether your soul to Earth through technology
You never heard of technologically assisted projection?
With specific brainwave entrainment from sound/light or devices which change the magnetic field of the brain you can engage in projecting to astral/mental planes much easier.
From my point of view technology is a tool.
Your luddite attitude doesn't appreciate how far humanity progressed with help of technology:
At best you segregate technology into accepted(e.g. books) and too-modern(CD-ROM) parts, like the Amish, unaware that world as it exists now is interconnected, interdependent web of technological achievement and progress, without which modern agriculture, communications(incl.this site),medicine, science and even religion would not exist in their current form.
