I want to become an immortal just so I have more time to practice spirituality.
Does anyone know how to do this? |

You can investigate the following words via google and books:
- kaya kalpa - babaji and 18 siddha yogis - soruba samadhi / swarupa samadhi
It is said that immense amounts of SBP leads to it, e.g. look at all those kriya yogis. Perhaps you can look at Yogani aswell ^^
- amaroli =P
Don't think that it is needed in these times as much as it was in earlier times. Why not reach causal-body-awareness (aka savikalpa samadhi) in this lifetime? Then even if the body drops, you won't loose any consciousness and will know fully + have a fresh and young body to go on.
It is also said that one can go on practicing in the astral world.
Wouldn't worry too much about it, give all now. Everything satisfactory should be reachable fully in this lifetime especially in these times.
Edit: Within the 6 yogas of Naropa, look at "consciousness transference".
Don't think that one can do any of this without the help of a godmode-master. |

you have to become one with the great spirit, but i think that there is no more YOU after that! |

this sounds a little scary but i think I've achieved a certain amount of immortality in this life time.
I say this because i've prayed very hard over a number of months to have a wife.
some time later i was filled with the Holy Spirit which told me I will meet my wife and afterwards i have had many experiences of moving between life and death and everytime i have turned to God to go to Heaven and have been put back in my body.
I think this makes me a survivor.
it doesn't necessarily make me immortal but it does say that you nor anyone can kill me except God.
May Archangel Michael protect

You are already immortal.
Be still, know.
QUESTION: ARE THERE FAST AND SLOW WAYS OF ATTAINMENT?
BODHIDHARMA: IF ONE SEES THAT ENDLESS TIME IS THE MIND, HE WILL ATTAIN QUICKLY, BUT IF HE MAKES A POINT IN HIS MIND AND AIMS AT HIS DESTINATION, HE WILL ATTAIN SLOWLY. THE WISE ONE KNOWS HIS MIND IS THE PATH; THE STUPID ONE MAKES A PATH BEYOND HIS MIND. HE DOES NOT KNOW WHERE THE PATH IS NOR DOES HE KNOW THAT MIND ITSELF IS THE PATH.
QUESTION: WHY DOES ONE ATTAIN QUICKLY?
BODHIDHARMA: BECAUSE MIND IS THE BODY OF THE PATH, THEREFORE IS QUICKLY REACHED. STUPID ONES MARK THEIR OWN TIME STARTING ACCORDING TO THAT STANDARD, THEREFORE THEY MUST MAKE THEIR OWN DESTINATION ACCORDING TO THEIR OWN DELUSIONS.

I know how rainbow body is obtained, but it dependent on how long your life span is, so thats why I ask this. Your life needs to be long enough to finish the four visions of thogal. |

I also suspect that aspects of AYP would cultivate this condition. Amaroli is supposedly contributive to this, but i am not an expert.
