Oh... I can sense people in a dark room... their density and apparent blocking of natural air.. .maybe their 'energy'. I can sense when people are about to look at me and when they are to do me harm.

I haven't seen an aura...

When you say you need a light coloured background it only says to me that it is something to do with retinal stimulation...

I think its just easier to see the colours nicely and clear against a light back ground, just like any coloured light. Having said that when you see an Aura fully manifested it is so bright and literally alive and moving the back ground wont make any difference, since you could walk round it and see it bright and objective in the room from any angle. When ive seen it that way Ive wonderd how the heck no one else in the room cant see it! its incredible. 

Hiya, Im sure unless you dreamt it or imagined it you wouldn't see anything like that?

I don't see why they couldn't be 'seen' in the dark.
I mean, you choose the output for how you view them... you don't need to choose a visual output. 

I'll have to give this a shot one day!  Definitely would make for an interesting experiment!

Well, I guess but when you work out how to see in the dark let us know! lol 

I used to go fishing and put them back. But now I could not face harming an innocent creature.

My personal feeling is if its not necessary for food then its an abomination, cruel and the antithesis of spirituality.

But you have to make the choices from the heart and decide what is your truth and what feels right for you.

You have decide for your self what is right.

I think its completely normal to be self conscious. Look at all the fake silliness and the fantastic life people try and portray on face book etc.

Ask your self the question, "how would life be if you didnt have to impress anyone...."

The answer is you dont.

Its great that you are so insightful about what got you thinking this way. I cannot stress this enough, but I got fed up with suffering so I went to see a CBT specialist and wow!!! changed my life !!! Helped me really understand my thinking and manage my anxiety I used to suffer with so bad.

"Cognitive behavioural therapy" it is amazing!! and if you are interested in the workings of the mind its really interesting.

But really I wouldn't worry too much. 

Im not sure auras can be seen in t dark.
I personally only see them in good or normal light really. Like xanth said its better with a light back ground.. A full blown manifestation of the human Aura is with doubt one of the most beautiful things I have ver seen!!!!!  mind blowingly beautiful. I feel very blessed and humbled to have see that. I usually just see bands of colour. I see them on animals and trees to.

I was looking at my fingers tips before going to sleep the other night and you can actually see tiny little wiggly sparks emanating from your hands with practice and the colours at the finger tips look like wind proof lighters / or blow torches. Really cool!

I have seen energy on people in the dark lol, its more like blobs.

I know a lady who can see auras and chakras on live TV or on Skype. She gives online readings.

She is pretty amazing! She said she doesn't need to see the whole body since she sees a necklace of lights around the throat area which is a reflection of the major chakras.

I went through a stage of practising trying to see aura for a few months, a few years back but know I see them spontaneously or when I deliberately have a look. Learn its worth it !

It was an educated guess from your comments.  I was told the exact same. Overactive imagination too. Invisible friends....
It would appear that naturals never get SP. Lol.
Another thing is sleep. The amount of hours is shorter by comparison to most.
Its either an energy thing or we are ok walking around like zombies.

OMG Snap!!!!!! 

@ Majour ka, I'd hazard a guess that NP awareness/ travelling is one thing you have known since your earliest memories.

Erm yeah thats true actaully! I can remember many nights flying around my room when I was around 4 years old, but everyone thought I was making it up LOL.

You're quite correct that it really happens everytime you fall asleep, but in such a case it's called Atonia.  More accurately, REM Atonia.
In practice, the only time it's actually called "sleep paralysis" is when REM Atonia is functioning incorrectly and you become consciously aware before the Atonia wears off.

As for the activeness of sleep... the REM portions of our sleep have relatively close to the same kind of brain activity as our waking brain activity shows.  That, in itself, is astounding.  

Cool ta, that makes sense ! 

You guys missed out on some awesome pyramid building. Better luck next time.

You built a pyramid? im confused stook? 

The only real thing I've noticed lately (within the last day or two) is entirely about myself.  LoL

Auras have become a lot more pronounced around people lately.  No colours... just more intense.  Kind of like the corona of the sun showing during an eclipse.

I used to see just a simple white outline around people, but now it's much more.

Happy days!  Doubt its anything to do with a new stone calendar though. More testament to your growing power and awareness 

An interesting fact that a lot of beginners fail to realise is that SP happens to everyone. Every single person who ever dreams has non-conscious Sleep Paralysis in the form of REM atonia. SP is just the term given to being aware of the process.

It's highly probable to the point of certainty that you will be undergoing REM atonia when you are in the thick of a projection Szaxx... just that you are not aware of it... the same goes for anyone projecting or dreaming.

The question could be better asked... "Can Astral Projection be accomplished without being aware of Sleep Paralysis?"

Hiya   while I understand what your saying and at the risk of splitting hairs it can only be considered SP if your aware of it. It could argued that we are in SP when we are asleep, but we can jump up awake and get out of bed if the door bell rings for eg. Yet from what I understand while experiencing SP that is most likely not possible, hence the term "paralysis".

Sleep is actually a very active state. There is often more physical body activity than when awake (according to scientific studies)

Re your question: Yes of course   Ive never personally known SP  

I project quite allot but ive never yet experienced sleep paralysis in my life.

Just relaxing the body and shifting awareness to the subtle body with practice. Or enter AP through lucid dream state.

Im sure its the agility of the mind and relationship with our own consciousness and subtle body that allows the shift from physical focus to astral/spirit awareness.

Thank god all that stupidity and superstition out the way now.....!

well to all the people who went on about something happening must feel like right bunch of charlies now LOL 

Let's face it if NASA did see a massive astroide for example appear and heading this way, would we get told ?

Just look at the news! all th elooneys are out! In china there have been arrest as a cult were all planning a mass suicide  

There are tv crews and police road blocks in a town in france where apparatly the alians that live in the mountain are going to come out and save the villagers ??!!!!!  

Keep posting the crazies !!  

Haha ! Cody you were in my dream last night! you were part of a group of people doing psychic art and yours was really good!

Random I know LOL 

What if it's John or Allan and not BelmaaaahK or Clebantiak?

What's in a name when it comes to guides?

LOL

I think mr flip gave a very good answer 

Prayer is a personal thing, very powerful, I couldn't live without it.

I think its quite a personal thing, since our relationship with god and our own spirit self is such a personal subjective experience.

It could also be considered that its affirmation. As we learn to pray in thanks, or requesting that which we would like in our lives with the attitude that we will have it or already have rather than like a beggar, who will never get it.

I look forward to you returning in six months and then in a year and then in ten to tell us what you think prayer is Cody 

 

Thank you all for your honest and well thought out replies. I feel like I am getting very helpful information through this forum that will aid me as I come closer to my first AP experience. These topics are becoming more and more real and believable to me and I appreciate it!

Hi chase,

I dont deal much in faith, I like to work with what has been proved to me and/or makes sense.
This a simple version of my understanding/belief/experience.

During our life we accumulate many beliefs on a conscious and subconscious level.
Much of that is affected by our experiences, that in turn ultimately shape our beliefs and how we see and experience the world and ourselves.
The experiences that are painful or difficult can and will, if not faced and dealt with directly, leave us with feelings/thoughts and emotions that can make us feel low, fearful or anxious. They can manifest at an unconscious level. That is to say, we know we dont feel great,  but we are not sure why?
At a certain level this is often known as depression.
During the daytime we can distract often ourselves from these feelings/ideas/thoughts. But in our sleep when we pass through the stage of light sleep our mind shifts to the astral level of consciousness where we dream. In our sleep we are unable to avoid those un-dealt with issues in our subconscious. So its a chance for our mind to try and process and deal with them
Because I believe the astral is a reflection of our subconscious, we we can often have bad dreams that are a subconscious manifestation of that which we haven't yet dealt with. Our minds try and sort it out for us, so we can dream about being chased/attacked etc etc, when in fact its our mind creating a version of our fears we can relate to.

I know this to be true because I reached a stage (I believe through hours and hours of meditation and self reflection) that during AP I was attacked but soon realised that the person attacking me was a direct manifestation of my un-dealt with thoughts and fears and I began to know directly and very clearly what they where and why! It was incredible waking up with such clarity! As soon as I realised what was manifesting the imaginary (but very real feeling) attacker dissolved
So I believe being attacked, how ever real it might feel, is a great thing, as we the have the opportunity to stay with it, allow it to be there, dont fight it, just ask your self, why have I created this..and like magic it will go and you will grow.

I also as a working medium haven't come across or heard of a "dark entity" although I think people like the idea of it all for some reason.
What I am sure of, is that there are people who have passed who have led a pretty violent or nasty life, but in the subtle worlds we can only move at frequencies that match the vibration of our light. So unless your a murderer I cant see how you will ever meet one in the astral or spirit world. They wont be able to reach you.


I think you are too insitghtful and aware already to have any trouble at all..and if you do, its just your own mind showing you somthing buried away. Go about your practice with joy.

Peace x

Hahaha I cant wait 

well then that is interesting! it really looks like some kind of lantern! 

maybe you should go back and see if you get more 

Ive seen pics of spirit manifesting on photos through the energy available via certain mediums that provide the energy for that phenomena. But when I see pics like this im personally not convinced that there is anything but light refractions on the lens etc.

I like my spirit people to look like, well people.

Just my personal feeling.


Regards.
