I think in the same line as you, just wondering how would they method be...

Has anyone has had any membership or some insight into that system?

I wanted to ask your OBE frequency because it is helpful for everyone!
I know it is like asking your penis size. It may be private and personal, but one assumes one's is small until you know the average.

I can give mine. Although I am still in a few months dry period  (almost three years with only 5 OBEs), when I was OBEing good, I could do it weekly fairly consistently. This almost lasted for a year.

So how about you?

I am just curious and interested on the statistics, could you post how many OBEs per month or week are you able to have?

So there is a simple way to understand it.

The observation effect happens only in the micro, the question would be, can this microscopic event affect in a macroscopic way?
An example on how would that be is imagine a big lake completely peaceful. If you throw a very small rock (a microscopic event) it will cause ripples in the whole lake disturbing it. So a microscopic event can affect the macroscopic landscape.

The problem is that the quantum field is not a peaceful lake, it is more like the sea with waves and storms in places.
If you throw a stone there, you wouls see the effects but they are invisible a little after thet, because there is so mucha happening anyway, something else won't do much.
This is usually called decoherence, what you are causing is brushed away by the environment.

Can we make coherence? Yes, in a very specific environment with advanced apparatus, not our minds.

Can we do it with our minds? Scientifically, there is no proof of that, but it isn't forbidden either. So the "enlightened" masters, masters of the mind can help controling that complicated machinery to prove or disprove it. This needs to be researched...

Thank you for your posts, I will be checking that.

I would love to research OBEs scientifically or spiritual topics rigurously (if possible).
I would also be interested on using OBE as a research tool for many topics.

Thanks Lumaza for your answer.

I completely understand what you say about reading on OBEs. Back then I studied a lot of physics/math, now I have read way more on OBE's and spiritual matters and I see how much data in my mind clouds things instead of shedding light on it. But reading the topic infuses motivation in me which is also very required.

Wanting to OBE broght me to a whole change of my life, to a whole world of spirituality that I was ignoring and possibilities on explorations.
I am really serious about achieving consistent OBE, it is one of my main goals right now.

Thank you Bloodshadow and Saxx for your answer, I will talk further on how I achieved it.

First let me tell you that I don't fall asleep easily (specially back then), I could spend an hour in bed to fall asleep.

There were two times I practiced: One is on a free day I would sleep only 6-7 hours, wake up and go by with my day up until afternoon after my meal. The other time I did this was after 6 hours of sleep, I woke early and went to college for a short class, about 4 hours after waking up and not having eaten anything I went back home and did my practice.

The practice: I laid down on my back (I couldn't fall asleep on my back) and I reapeated an affirmation (curiously unrelated to OBEing, if it was related it brought excitement and didn't work) over and over. I did this for a while, probably 45min, my best cue to the next step is that my hand or leg jerked once (like the occasional jump when you are falling asleep), then I turned on my side, continued repeating the affirmation until I fell asleep (which was pretty quickly). Later, probably about 20min, I would wake up with vibrations or a "fluidic" feeling and I could leave my body at that point.

My experiences were varied, plenty of them included the bedroom or the place where I wanted to project, a few with strong feeling experiences, and a few with very blissfull abstract places. Most of them very short.

I did that technique once a week and had 70%-80% success.


Now the differences I notice is that I fall asleep more easily. I now can fall asleep while lying on my back. When I successfully do everything, after falling asleep, 10min probably, I wake up but with no feeling and just completely retsted and fully awake, I can meditate but no OBE.

I work with Quantum Field Theory, specifically particle physics. I have been usually working on unified theories.

I would like to greet you all hoping to know more people and be part of this great community!
My name is Francisco and I am a physicist.
I am very interested on OBEs, I have had a few on command but haven't been able to do that again. I have posted a question about it on
http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/welcome_to_astral_consciousness/request_for_advice_to_get_back_on_track-t46922.0.html
I would love to meet more people also interested on OBEs and if you are interested on science I am of course interested.
Will be seeing you through this forum!
Cheers!

Hi everyone!
I am immensely interested on OBEing, I would like to find a mentor, or here friends that could help.
A few years ago, while in college, I had a fair amount of OBEs (about 60) which I could induce almost weekly and with about 70% success rate.
I have now about 3-4 years without being able to, I haven't been able to know why.
When I analyze what is different for me than it was me then, it is soooo much that I don't seem to pinpoint the problem.
Could you give me any advice?
Or has this happened to someone else and been able to overcome it?
Thanks a lot!
