The way I see it, is the time of day is important. What I personally do is, I set my alarm for, lets say an hour before I usually wake up. When I wake, I give a good 20 min. During that 20 min, I'm working on my intention. My intention being astral projecting. I find this time of day excellent because it's early in the morning when the energy is highest, your mind isn't full of "chatter" from throughout the day, and your body is nice and relaxed. Now intention is just as important. While laying there if you are thinking to yourself "when is something going to happen? This isn't working" etc etc etc, than of course nothing will happen! You're already setting yourself up for failure by setting your intention on such thoughts.

What would you call all of this? Meditation, astral projection and so on, does it have it's own religion? Or is it just.. free standing?

What things would be like if you weren't here? If you suicided, and how things would be? what would life be like for others?

~astraladdict

It might be one of those things where you just need to push through it with practice.

-___- Yet another reason why i prefer to NOT read books and just find the answer by experience. When he says you can only phase for 10 min, chances are only HE can phase for 10 min. You can phase as long as you want to. I've phased for hours so many times.

Number are numbers. The only time they mean anything is when you have them in your bank account.
If something happens, then it does, if it doesn't, oh well life moves on. At least... for me anyways

Projection is a transfer of consciousness. When you are in your energy body, your physical body will "be getting it's required rest." I put that in quotes because i believe the physical body doesn't need food, or sleep. The physical body gets it's "food" from the energy from the sun. Like a flower lol. Also, with the sleep, just meditate. When you come back from your sleep you're downloading the information, so to speak, to your physical consciousness. So don't worry about not having enough rest for school.

During the day is a good time, you could use the falling asleep as an advantage. When attempting to project, try dozing off for a little bit. Keep bringing yourself back though. It'll help your body "fall asleep" and if you're an impatient person it'll speed up your perception of the time passing by.

Hey!? ... I live in texas :/  It sucks here though xD, i can say that the unemployment here is mainly from laziness. The areas that i am close the people just worry about "gang banging" ( not in the sexual term you pervs. ) and selling/doing drugs.

Another cause for unemployment is experience. First hand i can say that most, of not all jobs out there require you to have experience to get hired. Me with my auto technician for example. To work on cars i need that experience to get the high payment area, but also the know how.

Any kind of meditation, with set intention, will help you accomplish your goals. Your guides are there all the time, they are following the plan YOU set up for them to help you along the road in your great journey. They contact you when it is time. The "orbs" you are seeing could be energy. It's possible your brow chakra is developing.

Pick a new date probably.

How many times have they done that already? -___-

The debate over LD being the same as OBE is.. vast and various. I see it, an LD is being mentally conscious while REM, and OBE is shifting/transferring consciousness to the astral.

Most likely when you leave your physical body in an OBE, you are in the RTZ first than you shift to the Realm.

Let's say nothing does happen in 2012, what will the people who were so convinced there was, do? Vice Versa.

... I come back to the pulse to see people talking about Ryans Chest? D; What happened when i was away!?

It's possible it's Kundalini, what have you been noticing lately?

~astraladdict

Welcome to the pulse

.......

Thanks for sharing

~astraladdict

If you tell yourself it won't work, than it won't work for you. When it comes down to the thin line, you can do anything, as long as you tell yourself and know that you can. Than it will happen

~astraladdict

Glad so see you're not burnt out Ryan 

~astraladdict

Couple of drinks here and there are okay, drugs, no... No drinking or drug use before any spiritual work.. Addicts orders

That's the first step to a long journey, congratz

~astraladdict

Great.. another Ryan -___-  Just messing with yuh. Welcome to the pulse

~astraladdict

That's what everybody thinks when they are first starting off with OBE. They get so excited, than the excitement turns to frustration. " Why can't i project?!" Common question. Projection is not something that happens over night, maybe not even within a couple of weeks. Hell it took me 6 months to project for the first time. It's all about staying dedicated, and focused. Next thing you know, you will project and the feeling of accomplishment will be bliss
