Spread out into it

[Bushwhacker]

In some curious advices to talk to deads from a movie, I read:

You are aware of your Self in a way you never have been before. Spread out into it.

What's the meaning of Spread out into it? Does it mean "Get deeper into your Self"?

Thanks

The meaning is pretty similar to "Get deeper into your self." I would paraphrase it as: examine every part of yourself.

It is either the dead or the dead ones/people, but not deads, IMO.

Yes, also, "advice" is uncountable.

Why do you want to talk to "dead people from a movie"?

I would suggest that if you want to talk to dead people, whether from a movie or not, don't worry too much about the language. There are rather more pressing issues to worry about.

I would rather prefer you helping me with the doubt instead of making fun of the lack of a "comma" between "deads" and "from", but OK pals, it has been funny

It depends on the philosophy of the movie. If this is a ghost who does not realise he's dead, or is having trouble "passing over", it might mean, "Let go of yourself, and let yourself fuse with the oneness - which is quite the opposite of focusing on yourself. But I don't give advice to dead people, so I could be wrong.

Sorry, those advices are for the living, in order to communicate with dead. Always according to the movie, of course. Thanks for your concern.

Did you read post #4 and #3?
Anyhow, there no way of knowing what it really means without knowing the metaphysical principles behind the advice.

It's hard to say exactly. I would guess that it means that you need to be completely aware of every single atom of your body. Spread your conscious awareness of your body throughout your entire body while you are trying to contact the dead.

Thanks.

We weren't making fun of your English. We were pointing out a punctuation/word order error and, at the same time, poking slight fun at the idea of getting advice on talking to the dead! See my comments above in red.​
