Understanding the Self Through Astral Projection

By Gregory Hebb

One of the most effective forms of self improvement in health psychology is visual imagery. One of my professors in university was a health psychologist and used this technique everyday. After ten years she was able to throw away her glasses. She had actually reformed the lenses of her eyes to the point she did not need glasses anymore! Astral Projection is one of the oldest forms of visual imagery and its applications are endless when it comes to finding happiness and love through knowledge of the Self in relationship with the rest of the world.

In my journey of self discovery I have studied many different forms of Self exploration. This usually was a masculine practice of stilling the mind, emptying the thoughts as completely as possible so as to rest in the witness position and watch the feminine movement of life force untainted by the distortion of intention, expectation and opinion. Although this is a great way to understand the difference between the witness and that which is being witnessed, it did not help me to understand how they function together to create what I have come to know as reality.

What is an out of body experience?

By Oudam Em

An out of body experience is a subjective experience in which one's consciousness seems to depart from the body, enabling him or her to perceive the physical world from the outside. The term out of body experience is often used interchangeably with astral projection, but the two phenomena, while similar, are not synonymous at all. Astral projection, by contrast, is the idea that a person has an astral body, usually connected to the physical body by a silver cord, that can travel freely in the astral world. The astral world is a subtle replica of the physical world but may contain elements that have no counterparts in the physical world. Unlike an OBE, an astral projection does not require one's consciousness to travel through the physical world and being able to perceive physical reality from outside the body.

Out of body experiences can be terrifying, especially while one experiences it for the first time. The sensation of separating from the physical body may make a person feel as if his or her soul is leaving the body (i.e, dying). To experienced practitioners, on the other hand, OBE can be an exhilarating adventure, allowing them to fly and walk through walls with their sense perceptions largely intact . Owing to its remarkable intensity and vividness, out-of-body experiences can be spiritually transforming, affirming the existing of the soul and the afterlife.

A Theory on Astral Projection

By Mark Cunningham

When I was Ten or Eleven years old I had a fascination in the occult and alternate states of reality. I was particularly interested in astral projection I would read all the books and try all the examples, you see I really wanted to experience what these so called astral travelers were experiencing, apparently they were able to leave their bodies for a length of time and travel in the real world to far off places - often they would notice something whilst traveling that would have been impossible to notice from their present location and after their experience would gain credibility by confirming that the object or place actually existed. So in a nutshell people may have the ability to leave their bodies and travel often flying to far off places sometimes also time traveling.
