I tried this last night as well with some success. I had tried it some months ago, but had forgotten about it until coming back to the forum yesterday to look for some inspiration.

I'm not huge at visualization so I make it very simple and just imagine a ball containing my consciousness as existing maybe six inches or so in front of my forehead.

I did this at the end of meditating last night before bed. And also when laying down to sleep. Already when falling asleep I am having little jolts back into my body. Then throughout the night it seemed a seed was planted and either from sleep or the places in between sleep I kept up the visualization of the ball of consciousness outside my head. I don't have a lot of memory of exact occurrences, but I remember thinking it was a wild night. I felt a little like the technique is a very strong one, like a bucking bronco and that I need to strengthen myself and my awareness in order to harness its energy.

I had dreams repeating of a couple specific entities that seemed like guides.

Powerful yet simple technique.

I haven't posted about an Episode of Coast to Coast AM for quite a while, because they have been basically been talking every night about things that create Fear based scenarios and we have enough of that garbage in the World today as it is.

That's why I dropped my subscription. Too much doom and gloom.

How many man hours does that take for a skilled professional?

Looking forward to your new site and especially the research. Full steam ahead.

Experimenting with new things never gives this practice a chance to become dull or boring. It also leaves you open to all possibilities.

Good advice. Thanks.

I used to consider myself a minor authority on this matter but since I found this website, I'm realizing that I am still very close-minded and it is preventing me from the best benefits or even realizing some of the benefits, so to speak.

With that said, the breathing you heard may very well be from your dual awareness or you may have heard something that you thought sounded like breathing and so it instantly became the sound of breathing. It's so strange that everything is so matter of fact in the NPR because thinking truly makes it so. It's like answering questions with a question in a way.

Good point. I forget sometimes to question everything and jump to the first explanation. I need to keep my mind more open and not be so quick to put everything into a box.

Great job. Thanks for sharing. Good catch on the breathing. You can read Robert Bruce about the split mind effect and it may shed some light on why you would have sensory input from both "locations."

So cool!

I tried this last night and felt like I was getting something. I was on cold medicine though and couldn't maintain awareness without falling asleep. Plan on trying it again tonight.

meetup.com has quite a few groups within my area, including people interested in Seth, Robert Monroe, mediums, New Age folks, etc. You might have a look there.

Cool. Thanks all. I will have a look.

Stu,

You see people classifying the binaural beats according to alpha, beta and theta waves for instance. Are the tones you are talking about classifiable in the same manner?

I would be interested in trying something that you create. You could PM me, I guess if you have something.

Thanks.

I wasn't really thinking there was a conspiracy. I was more wondering what is the thinking of them on the OBE now? Are they still working on it regularly? Or is it something that has faded and is no longer an interest.

I'm not on Facebook, or I might check in on their pages.

Thanks.

correct, but as much as I've seen and heard about it, their forum isn't very populated, just Summerlander acting as dictator-moderator and very few regular posters (not sure if all of them are materialists)

Yes. My opinion as well! So funny.

There are still materialists that practice the OBE, but call it the phase. At obe4u.com.

I don't believe that way, but I respect their right to their opinion.

I was reading the thread on the vehram system this AM and I started googling around about Vessen Hopkins. I was surprised at how little is to be found about him on Google. And his full e-book is nowhere to be found.

It got me wondering about people associated with the OBE who seem to be keenly interested and then seem to drop out or disappear.

Did Vessen just get bored with the OBE? The same with Matt Jones. Is he posting or talking anywhere about the OBE any longer? And of course Frank Kepple just seemed to disappear. Maybe with Matt and Vessen other things came up and they lost interest.

List of disappearing OBE folks:

Matt Jones (a.k.a Nick Newport, Lucidology.com)
Vessen Hopkins (Vehram.com)
Frank Kepple (Astral Pulse)

Right. I understand the world of mediumship has a lot of fraud, but if you dig into the literature, there is plenty of evidence to support the fact that there are genuine mediums. I didn't really want to get into that debate.

I just wanted to know if anyone who perhaps had an interest in both worlds, mediumship and the OBE had ever seen any cross over.

There is an incident recorded by Robert Monroe where he is seen by a medium, but that is the only instance I have so far.

Thanks!

I'm just talking about a medium, who would normally sit and communicate with people who have passed on to the other side.

You would imagine a situation where a medium could experience the OBE projector while the projector was out of body, in much the same way that they can sense people who no longer have physical bodies at all.

I'm wondering if anyone here has ever heard of someone who was having an OBE that came into contact with a psychic medium during their out of body experience?

I guess it would have to be planned in order for any kind of confirmation to have occurred.

It would seem like it should be possible.

An example from life or the literature would be appreciated.
