"professional" trippers

[cobalt]

Since i have not projected yet i would like to ask to those or to people who know what do "professional"(the ones who can do it at will an as long as they want) trippers do, i mean they have ended up with just playing around, what, except peace they find "there" do they travel in space, learn something?

the ones who can do it at will an as long as they want

That would probably be the dead ones

It is a very spiritual learning experience for any one no matter how advanced they are.

Does this means that they travel without a purpose, just to get some expierience? For example monks, as i have heard they st in caves for years traveling around, i doubt that they have no goals.

I would say that projecting is not a spiritual experience in itself, and does not necessarily lead to any spiritual evolution.
One can search for spiritual truths in the astral as one can in the physical, but the act of experiencing either does not lend itself to progress on it's own (or I should say advanced progress over that of experience gained over time).
I would also say the astral could possibly be counter productive to spiritual evolution, if one gets lost in any belief system (be it founded in the astral or physical) it blocks alternative viewpoints. Within the astral energy follows thought, and so beliefs can manifest themselves as (potentially false) truths more easily then in reality – so its possibly easier to get "lost".

As MJ stated;
It is very important to know what is true and what is not. That is so very important in ap/obe. It is very easy to become mislead by your thoughts.

My point is that ap shows us we have a spirit/soul. We can leave our bodies at night and do what ever. That is a spiritual experience to me.

The bottom line is that depending on your individual belief system your ap's will vary. Your mind influences them. So, if you believe in God, you will have Godly experiences, and ect... for what ever belief you have.

Oh, don't mistake what I meant. The act of projecting in and of itself is very spiritual (to me at least) - and it does potentially allow one to interact with manifestations of concepts which without projection would just be mental abstractions or beliefs. But unless one makes an effort to explore, learn, and grow through the use of this state - it does not inherently allow for spiritual growth.
