In regards to more information, I would suggest using the the search tool here on the forum. There are many personal experiences already posted on the site. People, who have been here for years, have taken significant time to write those things out already.

Here is a detailed account of one of those people (but provided on their own web site):

Good luck with what you are seeking. Remember ... a clear intention is important.

Hey Subtle Traveller,
Thanks, it was very helpful. Reminded me of Monroe's method as well. This is exactly what I needed.

Hi guys, THANKS for your advice.
I agree with you all that senses need to be shut down for leaving the body.

BUT, it happens automatically in meditation. Mind only becomes still when you stop attending to any stimulus(related to senses). There is only sense of existence at that moment, and sometimes thoughts pop up. I see what you are saying. And I am going to continue keeping that "Quiet" state and master that.

IT WOULD be Helpful for me if one could share his experiences(sensations/observations) while leaving the body(FROM WAKING STATE/not from LD). I KNOW, people get different experiences, I just want to make sure that it is not a sudden and probable phenomenon that may or may not happen. I need to master it. (& I don't expect it to happen overnight)

Hi guys,
I will try to keep it short but complete.
I am trying to project from waking state, meditation to astral. I can't continue indirect methods(as called in PHASE practice) because of lack of time. I have HAD success with those though.

I sit for about an hour(can go more) in meditation controlling my thoughts. I won't say I am completely without any thoughts. I take help of any word(mantra) first to remove random thoughts. Then I can completely shut my thought process down for a few minutes.(can see instinctual thoughts arising sometimes. It's like- I don't think about anything but know it, as if I had thought several ideas in an instant. That's why I am calling then instinctual thoughts)

Now, my point is, I don't try to do anything to project. I just stay there quiet (expecting spontaneous signals/projection). But it does not happen. I stay there quiet. When I try to deploy any technique, I become aware of my body and then nothing happens, I have to try again to go to thoughtless state.

Can you share your insights here? What can I try to project from this state?
