What's the highest Plane You've ever been too?

[Ignazio]

Their are 7 Different Astral planes
My highest Plane I've been to is the middle astral plane
Which was the highest plane you've ever been in your hole life?

*I heard if you get to the Atmic plane "God" The plane is so beautiful and colorful that you wouldn't want to stay on earth anymore. Youd literally have to sacrifice your life just to stay their.

And if anyone has been to the Buddic plane, wow.I got some questions for you

[Xanth]

I've been to the Physical plane...
It's a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't wanna live there!  HA! 

[Ignazio]

I always wished to go there!

[The_One]

 I've been to the Buddic plane & never wanted to leave. VERY, VERY, beautiful and peaceful place.

[CFTraveler]

I'm not telling.

[RisingSon]

I've only been to Houston, and a local said it was very close to heaven....I couldn't tell the difference.

OK, sorry.  I have done some traveling, but in truth a cannot even begin to say where those places have been.  I have a question.  How do you know where you have been, as in the lower astral/high astral, the spiritual planes and so on?

[mo]

I'm not telling.

now that made me curious.

I've been to the Buddic plane & never wanted to leave. VERY, VERY, beautiful and peaceful place.

that too! tell a bit about it. i guess that's why this thread exists

[T.L.]

Im interested in knowing just how you would know which one you actually went to and for that matter how can a person say there are only 7? In my experiences I have been to many different types of places, even what seemed to be parallel realities on earth/physical plane. I was at one plane where everything was set up like earth, different types of buildings that looked more like castles than anything else I could compare them to, and all the plant life had some kind of enchanting element. When they moved with wind they swayed in very smooth fantastic fashion and they cast off an interesting glow. It was a very spiritual place, not a physical place, but set up to feel like the physical. However I don't think I could say oh it was here or there on that chart, objectifying it in that way makes no sense to me as there might be infinite planes and in my theory at least that is exactly the way it works. The trick becomes how to visit the same place again because I have been to over 20 different types of places, and the only one I seem to visit more than once is the physical plane, and parallels of our reality but still the physical plane.

Wow, You got a lot of explaining to do!

You do have a point...

lawwl ten points for that one +10

[The_One]

 It's a bit of a long story at the beginning, and is very personal to myself. I believe it was the buddic by how Robert Bruce explains it, in one of his online books "Treaties on Astral Projection" It fitted perfectly on how I experienced it.

[Ignazio]

How did you experience it? Tell us from what you saw and felt.

[cpt. picard]

Saying there is 7 planes with clear divisions is way to mystical for me to find any merit in it. But when it comes to distinguishing between planes, I am unsatisfied with many of robert bruce's explanations. His descriptions sound to me like they could easily be the higher astral when he talks about his experiences in the Buddhic, as a planme of intense silver light, or he described another one as having angels blowing on trumpets and everything being all heavenly. I dont think you can distinguish between planes based on their descriptions, there has to be very real perceptive differences. For example, Frank describing his Focus 4 group as having no space and time, with thoughts being shown through images and everything consisting of pure energy. This sounds to me like a wholly different experience than astral projection, so Im inclined to believe this may be a higher plane, but as for some people's descriptions I honestly don't see why many of them wouldnt be considered higher astral.

Personally, Robert Bruce and Robert Monroe explained the same place. It was pure yellow & white light, and I was floating there, bathing in it. I was one but was also with many. It's hard to explain. I wasn't male or female, and nothing really mattered. All I felt was a overwhelming feeling of love and understanding.
One thing I don't like is some bashing what I experienced.

The_One, your experience Sounds very peaceful and incredible! That feeling of understanding...I get it often when I project, Can you explain it in more detailed.

[The_One]

I really wish I could explain it better, but words don't come close to what it felt like. I experienced this at the age of about 14, and I never know about APing till I was 19. This is Robert Bruce's quote:-
  "This is a warm, abstract world filled with utter peace and infinite love. It is a dimension of pure White. There is no sight or sound perception here other than the all pervading, brilliant White. In this dimension you very quickly relinquish conscious thought and individuality. You cannot think for long once you enter here and there is no need or desire to do so. There is an irresistible urge drawing you into a quiet stillness. It is like being immersed in warm, pure White cotton wool. In this world you cease to be an individual and you become, PART OF THE ONE. You also cease to be male or female. In a way this is like returning to the Mother's womb. You are surrounded, absorbed and assimilated by infinite loving warmth, understanding, forgiveness and atonement. AT-ONE-MENT

    Time here ceases to have any meaning. If you enter this world you will never, ever want to leave it, you cannot leave it, until your physical body calls and drags you back. This is the healing, resting place of the soul."
This is very much exactly what I experienced. I hope this helps.

[Ignazio]

Wow.... That must be the best experience in your life. One last question One How did that enlightened experience affected your life.

[The_One]

 I suppose it give me hope. I did believe in life after death before this, but this reinforced my beliefs further. I hope I go there again some day.

[WASD]

I've been outside my body for 5 seconds about 4 months ago... sitting up in my bed. No idea where i was. Best experience in my life.

[mcdwg]

Can't get past my surroundings. Sometimes I do have lucid dreams where I see myself going into this sort of window that has a different world on the other side. Last one I had I went through the window and I saw myself going up in the sky and going through a lot of boulders floating in the air. i do not remember it to be very vivid so that is why I think it was a dream.

[Ignazio]

There isn't very many dreams where people fly out the window going up in the sky and going through a lot of boulders...
It must of been a short OBE

It might sound like exactly a movie but the way I remember it exactly is total darkness and like an opening to a different world, at first it looks like different colors within that opening but as I get closer it becomes like an opening to a different world, the problem is that as I describe it I can not attach emotions or feelings to it like other OBE's I've had where I can remember the physical sensations. I've hard phasing is something like that but at this point I only remember it like lucid dream.

[CFTraveler]

You've described an astral projection.  Many if not all lucid dreams are astral projections.  When you pass through a threshold of some sort (window, wall, gate, etc.) this triggers something in your subconscious to let you get through your personal cocoon of subjectivity into a collective environment.  So I second what Ignazio said.

What do you mean by collective environment?

Thanks

[CFTraveler]

Well, if your personal astral environment is shaped by your subconscious (which is why dreams are symbolic and about you), the collective part of the astral is shaped by everyone's creative mind, or subconscious.  Which is why we can have shared experiences in the astral.  Like lessons, and other types of experiences and environment that many people report.
