Something I wanted to share.

Little bit of backround. I'm not the best projector, because I never try to practice it, I rarely meditate, I don't keep a journal, etc etc.

But I've been studying metaphysics for over a decade, so at this point, when something happens, I understand what's going on and what to do about it. I've also read OUR in its entirety.

Despite my lack of discipline I seem to posses a lot of latent abilities that others spend years trying to develop, i.e. I'm so empathic I can almost read minds, and animals' minds at that. In fact, thanks to this, most of my income comes from playing poker at my leisure. I'm clairsentient enough to feel a friend (or say, a cop) coming my way. I don't seem to have to spend a lot of time thinking about something for it to manifest in my life. Life is good.

One huge factor that I believe limits my ability to practice projecting is that I live and sleep with my girlfriend, who snores like a banshee and hogs the bed. She's also a psycho-somatic cup-half-empty type while I never get sick and always look at things positively. Her negative energies definitely make things more difficult for me, and despite my efforts I can't get her to change her ways. She's very good to me though so I find it hard to leave her, though I know we'll never be getting married. Any advice on this matter is welcome, though its not the focus of this post.

Anyway, I've actually managed to train myself to gain conciousness whenever "the vibrations" come. I've also learned not to react in any way that could halt them, i. e. getting scared or excited or consumed with ecstacy, though to be honest that particular skill might be tied to my former marijuana usage - my body isn't surprised by feeling that way. I always have some problem or another even when I do exit, like I'll have no control of where I'm floating so I'll just be sinking into the ground, or I won't be able to see, though I've heard this can improve as you get further from your body. I've done a lot of visualization exercises during lucid dreams to try to help with my clarity.

ANYWAY, I'm an outside of the box thinker; after all, the truth to reality is that anything goes, we our only limited by our own minds, so why not think outside the box? So last night when I became aware of the vibrations, I tried something new. A key to exit is raising your vibrations, and a lot of people say to try rolling out of their body. I hadn't tried that yet, but I decided to take that idea a step further. I spun in circles as fast as I could. It wasn't dizzying in any way. It felt incredible. The best description I can give is raising the torque of an engine. It felt like I was sucking in more and more... power. I began rising straight out of my body, and on top of that, I could SEE. We have 360 degree vision anyway, so it didn't look like I was spinning, you know? Anyway, it felt like I was about to have a great projection, when......

My girlfriend kicked me in her sleep. ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, just thought I'd share, and maybe others could try this technique next time they have a chance, and let me know how it goes for them.

I was thinking about this and wanted to know what others had to say.

Most of us, as some point or another, have "seen" our world, actually a reflection of it,  with their astral sight, their 3rd eye, their ethereal vision, whatever you want to call it; maybe during an OBE, but especially those times where you wake up early and before you open your eyes, you can see. While this sight isn't perfectly accurate, it is quite close. Close enough to consider it functional vision.

So I was wondering, if we can do this, why is it we've never heard of a blind person learning to use this form of sight in place of their eyes? Perhaps many do, in a very weak form they might interpret as imagination through sound and what not, but theoretically one should be able to achieve an almost-perfect ethereal sight ability with practice and dedication. I would think someone who has gone blind could become particularly devoted to this practice. And I am sure if someone had, it would've made a news story here or there at some point, spread the word so others could be taught as well. So why have they not?

Possibly because people that go blind or are born blind have chosen that path for themselves (their higher-self has, I mean), hence they don't want to gain this sort of sight since it would negate a purpose of their journey. Perhaps those of us that ARE more spiritually evolved, those of us reading these forums and those like us - that we have the spiritual and physical integrity to not allow some ailment to take our vision. It is true most of us get sick considerably less than average, if ever, right? Or maybe its because most of this sort of information is only primarily available on the internet, a source of knowledge a blind person would be severely limited access to.

Another interesting thing is that I've heard someone who is born with sight but goes blind later in life, over time also slowly stops "seeing" in their dreams. They still dream though. It is often said however, that some to all of our "dreams" are actually experiences on the astral plane, hence we would be seeing with our astral sight. What connection could this have?
