While we all know of experiments of people verifying or trying to verify things seen whilst in the Etheral looking at their surroundings when out of their physical body, has anyone ever thought to try a hearing experiment when out of their body?

What one could do is get a friend to call out a random phrase or short sentence while one is out of their physical body (one of course the person has no idea of what will be) then when they come back, try and have a go at telling what the person was saying when you were OBE in the Etheral watching them recite the random word or sentence.

A lot of people say your hearing is Enhanced while out of your physical body so this should work possibly better. Anyone tried this and had good results or has there been any mainstream experiments done with this?

I have heard that charging ones 3rd eye chakra before and OBE is very benificial.

Anyone ever done this before having an OBE then found it very benificial? can you tell the difference between an OBE when your 3rd eye chakra has been charged then an OBE when it hasnt?

I'm always interested in peoples OBE abilties to be able to watch things or other people in the etheral.

Has anyone been tested in this way recently where they have been asked to confirm the location of a person and/or object which someone has known you'll be trying to find information out from beyond your normal physical senses.

Pls tell of anything anyone was able to confirm to be real whilst spying on the etheral.

Ok last night I was asleep and lucid dreaming only I found myself in a strange state between 1 or 2 dreams.

I found myself conscious in darkness. I remember I was looking around at the darkness just confused as to what to do next. I called out "increase clarity" but I dont think it made any difference strangly lol.

I think the conscious blackness then faded into an unconscious lucid dream and next thing I know is I woke up.

Has anyone had an experience like this? finding themself in conscious darkness? anyone know what it is or might mean? your views pls.

I heard its possible to view the future with the akashic records. Is this true?

Does it hold information of major world events that are yet to come?

Anyone been able to obtain information about the future via the records? pls tell of your experiences.

Anyone know if its possible while out of your physical body to contact entities or spirits/spirit guides/angels to get information about any mental or physical problems one might be having at that time in their life?

Would it be possible to get an explanation from them as to why some things are happening to you whether it be things such as mental depression or physical sickness.

Someone needs to do something like this: leave a tape recorder running then
when they go into the Etheral and look around their house, they make sure to repeat a clear and unique word or sentence over and over into the recording tape recorder.

If the tape recorder catches it clearly then I don't think there is a skeptic in the world
who would really be able to explain it. It would be sure proof that the spirit is really out there and able to interact with this reality.

So the next person who has a tape recorder and is planning to astrally project, set it up and TRY.

Ok this is something I have kind of thought of and maybe some of you have as well:

Ever thought about trying an experiment of what would happen to someone if they were "killed" by another person (stopping their heart) whilst they were astral projecting looking at themselves?

Has there ever been any known cases of this at all? my idea would be to stop the heart for a few seconds then restart it but of course it could still be risky so pls don't anyone try anything like this lol.

Anyone think there would be a profound difference in there astral experience once you were dead for those few seconds?

Why is there slight distortions in Etheral projections? when I read about people who have projected
and are still in their bedrooms possibly looking at themselves, they often report small
alterations in there room or house such as something that normally is there which is not there or maybe something which is bigger than it normally is or maybe even something strange and bizarre
lurking on their bed.

It would seem to me logically if these really are projections being within the regular world then all should be as it is seen as the same when not projecting. I find this very puzzling.

Why do these small distortions to such common surroundings appear?

Okay I have rather a wierd request for the next person who consciously projects.

Please when your out there doing whatever, if you happen to come across any wise good entities/angels/god figures could you ask a Question for me: "What is time?" and i'm not talking about asking them to look at their astral watch lol I mean in the universe as we know it what is this phenomenon called time.

Of course if you did ask this Q the answers or answer you may get might vary in terms of relevance and truth but I just was curious what sort of feedback you may get if you ask this Q in the astral plane.

Pls if anyone cares to do this for me the next time they Astral travel then pls say you will on here. Thx in advance.

Anyone ever tried to use Astral travel to perhaps view or see events that have happened or maybe to find out about known world mysteries which have had you intriuged? for example: has anyone ever tried to gain information in the astral world about what really happened to Lord Lucan? or has anyone ever gone back and been an astral spectator when the Hindenberg disaster occured?

I'm sure you've read the http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn12531-outofbody-experiences-are-all-in-the-mind.html

This majorly sux. Its now scientific proof this is all nothing more than our perceptions bieng distorted:  "They provide the strongest proof yet that people only imagine floating out of their bodies during surgery or near-death experiences."

So people where do we go from here? all these years of people bieng sure "theres more out there" and there is different realms "astrally" its now scientifically official that its just all in the mind which is going to have me in a mood for the rest of the day. Oh well. Any further views?

I'm sure most of you know about the buzzing sound people so frequently report who have had a near death experience. When it comes to AT many report a buzzing as well my question is:

Do you people think theres a connection with the buzzing sound/sensations? do you people think when one dies it is disconnecting to the soul or astral conciousness?

I suspect its unlikely anyone has had an here NDE but if anyone has maybe you could tell us about this more if theres possibly any connection or should I say disconnection hehe.

Right well the notion of one possibly being able to see their past events whilst in the astral plane may be considered a reinactment and such but I wondered: Can you only see what you personally recall happening back at that time the first time round?

Does the time travel/reinactment procedure depend upon what one remembers or can it be possible to see events that happened in the past even though one may not have clear recollection of them.

I consider this possibly not to be valid. Why? because of the evidence supporting hypnosis past life regression.
If we can indeed backtrack on past lives and see what happened during those time eras with seemingly no or little vagueness (as long as one is in deeply under) then this should be possible in Astral should it not? but of course not nessisarily a past life but past events in this life.

Your thoughts please people.

Okay i've had OBE/AP off my mind for the past 2 weeks or s, so I havent really been reading up on it or trying to possibly enter the astral realm as of late. Yesterday however I was getting back and catching up on the subject more and more and had kind of a strange feeling when I was awake lying in bed before I properly decided to turn in:

I felt kind of "light" . And I felt tingling over some of my body. I do stress tingling (not to be confused with vibrations).

Does anyone suppose this was any sort of sign of VERY early OBE entering sign? it seems odd how it seemed to happen when my mind was "back into it" considering I hadnt been into it the last number of days beforehand so it wasnt fresh on my mind.

It could be nothing but anyone got any views? anyone had similar things?

I had a pretty lucid dream last night. Thing is this lucid dream was about astral projection although I cannot remember much of it I do remember bits and pieces such as looking at amazement at my own hand which appeared to be seethrough.

The straight question I have is quite simply: Is this astral projection or was it a lucid dream ABOUT astral projection? (note the difference).

Although it was pretty lucid like anyones dreams lucid or not I was not concious enough to know what was going on until I was fully awake. I'm guessing this was merely a dream and not an actual projection as it would seem conciousness and realization of being 'awake when asleep'
would be more predominant if it was a projection (from what I have heard). But please your views and try and start with a basic Yes or No thx.

Wanted all your thoughts on a lucid dream I was having last night. It wasnt that nice and ended
just before a woman was about to pull the trigger of a gun pointing to my head. Whilst
lucid in the dream I was trying to will myself to be ready to die but I dont think I was aware
I was in a dream. Anyway just before she pulled the trigger I foundmyself concious in blackness
for a few seconds with the sound of myself breathing. It was also as if the sound of myself breathing was
in surround sound and louder.

I was a little scared so I woke up seconds later but during this very brief void is it safe to say
I was possibly between a dream and being asleep? I was concious yet for those few seconds confused
as to why my breathing sounded so loud. You people think Had I hung around in the void I may have induced
an AP/OBE? your views please.

Anyone ever tried the following experiment:

Tell a friend what your about to do. Just before starting to meditate or to sleep or whatever make sure you tell your friend to come into the room when you are well into meditation/sleep. Ask your friend to do a specific set of actions and/or arrange things a certain way. This is all while your physical body is deemed "out of action" and your astral body is watching him and recording what he or she does. After returning you can report on what he did while you were not in your physical body. This could be pretty interesting if done right.

Its important of course to allow a fair amount of time to ensure you have entered the astral realm before the person enters the room and performs his or her actions and it might also be worth the person checking your physical body to confirm you are indeed in a deep trance or meditative state.

Anyone ever tried this? if not and your able to astral project - why not I mean its a pretty easy experiment to do with no cost or complications.

Was curious if any experienced astral projectors could tell me if there is any specific rules NOT to do whilst out there? kind of like any specific no no's everyone knows not to do when in the astral plane. Any information appreciated.

Alright i'm hoping somebody here can tell me what the hell is going on with me.

I have been experiencing strange sleeping sensations since having the urge and wanting to OBE/AT.
Although i have not experienced a full blown obe or AT experience I have found myself hearing strange
noises and having unusual "jolts" when I am on the verge of sleeping.

When I was fully awake in the middle of the night (and I stress full awake not OBE or AT) I wanted to
go to the bathroom and I heard kind of like a strange noise of what sounded like what might have
been a large cat which was kind of yelling/meowing. If was coming from behind me and I do actually have
a cat but when I checked up on him he was downstairs fast asleep.

This is strange but is it something to do with clairvoyance since having a brief (I think) experience
with OBE/AT (which I posted about before)  does anyone else have any accounts of hearing strange things since possibly crossing over
to AT/OBE realm even if for a very short while?

I have never heard anything like this or had strange sleeping jolts since before being into the concept of Astral Travelling and
OBE's but if anyone could shed some light on what might be going on i'd be greatful. And by the way i'm
not crazy either.                                             

Last night another strange thing happened which might be a small preview of Astral projection. I think also it may not be as the common aspects of most astral projection/OBE accounts were not there.

I was asleep and I know before I went to bed I had it all fresh in my mind that I wanted an OBE. I remember (while I was asleep) a VERY brief moment of like "waking up" only I felt something was different. I dont know what compelled me to do so but I had the urge to touch my cupboard next to my bed and the tip of my finger went through it! with that I vaguely remember freaking out and bieng afraid and waking up later I think.

Its kind of hazy as I reckon I was around 50% concious and 50% not but if it was a little preview of the 5th dimension its proof to me that it is different from a dream even if at this point I need to focus on improving my conciousness rate if I have a full blown one.

Anyone have any views on this anyone have any similar accounts? It does still occur to me it may just have been a dream but seems I do remember it happening and was fairly concious during those few seconds.

Has anybody been able to will themselves to see themselves (or not themselves) in events some years before? If so how did it work? what was the clarity like?

I was wondering if anyone could tell me (as basic as possible) where science stands with the whole OBE/AP thing.

In short: does science accept it?

I have tried to find a basic answer but seems I cant. Can anyone tell me if science genuinely agrees that its all possible and if its the soul leaving the body or weither science thinks its all some sort of hallucination. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

Theres a fair few light hearted comments on here about time travel in the astral planes and seeing the future and "hitting the lotto jackpot" and "knowing what horse to bet on at the grand national".

It occurs to me on a serious note that why indeed cant this be done? or maybe some have done it. If time is indeed all one in the astral realm, being that the past, present and the FUTURE are all as one what is stopping an experienced astral traveller entering the astral realm once again and bringing back information about future racing/gambling events which may land them a millionaire? that surely cant be bad. One could argue that POSSIBLY the future could be disrupted once one knows for sure the outcome but in this minor event of knowing some numbers it would be of little effect to causeality.

I'm sure if people can have brushes with or even meet god, view past lives and see entities us as the human race cant even begin to understand then i'm sure the notion of just getting a horse number or specific information on an upcoming big money bet cant be that hard.

This is just something I got thinking about. It isnt the reason I wanted to learn AP but its something interesting worth thinking about if there indeed is no time in the astral realm. This kind of reminds me of Back to the future 2 with Biff Tannen and the sports almanac lol. your views please. Has this ever been known?

I just wanted to say/query something regarding the levels conciousness and awareness in AP and/or OBE's.

From what I have read up on there doesnt seem to be a distinct difference in conciousness levels regarding dreams weither lucid or not and OBE/AP's.

To define the level of conciousness and awareness while having a dream or lucid dream would be: A void of nothingness but then even saying nothing would imply something. In short its impossible to describe as for a short time conciousness doesnt exist whilst dreaming, whilst our brain is shutdown. The basis of what we realize from dreams is when we wake up and remember bits and pieces most of the time which seems to be VERY vague and hazey.

The point of this post is to highlight that if the dreams are infact also in cases OBE's or AP then what use are they. If a OBE or AP has the same clarity/clearness as a dream in my book and i'm sure alot of other peoples books, it would be deemed useless as at the time of a dream one is not concious. We only realize what we have been dreaming/obe/AP after we have woken up.

Please people your views on the differences (if any) and also views on weither or not an AP or OBE can be in the clarity of bieng 100% (or very close) concious....by that I dont mean very lucid I mean to the point where your as concious as you are whilst reading this only you are in a spirit/soul form.

Please people your views please Thx.

Hello people. I'm trying to find out some distinct information on exackly what the difference is between dreaming/lucid dreaming and having a full blown OBE and/or Astral Travel.

For all those who are able to do either of these things....on a scale of one to ten.....ten bieng as concious as you are now and 1 being as vague and unconcious as deep sleep dreaming, how would the conciousness of an OBE or AP be on the 1 to 10 scale?

I'm trying to find distinct evidence it isnt some type of hallucination, deep lucid dream or maybe an illusion. So please to all those who can do it....from 1 to 10....how concious are you whilst doing it? is it just like a regualar dream or lucid dream?
