Ah..So just relax. Umm..Do you know what would be the best time to exit out of the body? How do I know I am ready....So many questions 

Tell ya what... pop on over to www.astralacademy.com and join up. 
We can work with you most closely over there to help clear up your confusions. 

I dont understand what you saying. How can i see something and not watch it ?
And since i dont understand it im probably not doing it right so please explain it

Have you ever just sat down on a beach at sunset and just "watched" the sun while it's setting?
You just sit there, watching... taking it all in... enjoying it... not thinking about anything... not judging the sunset...
You're just straight up enjoying the experience.  You're "seeing" it, but you're not "watching" it.  You're "taking it in", but not really "looking" at it.
It's a passive experience of "experiencing".

Does that make any sense? 

Oh thanks for the website. I thought that the signs were a key feature for astral projection. I mean I cant just feel cozy then suddenly get up and expect to be in the astral(which I did many times and failed).I guess I will see the site.

For now, put aside what you "think" astral projection is about or what the key features are... they're holding you back. 

[randomly?]

Yeah that's what I think but when I try to astral project I just cant get out. So I came to the conclusion that the signs are for when your body is ready. Please help..I really need an OBE

Understand what you just said here.

You just couldn't get out... so you (randomly?) came to a conclusion (based upon what exactly?) that those are the sings for when your body is ready?
So you just came to a conclusion based upon not knowing anything about what you're trying to do.  See how silly that sounds?  It's like telling a rocket scientist what's wrong with his rocket when you don't even know what a rocket is. 

This is why working from a position of knowledge is so important.  This is why we teach people to experience the non-physical for themselves on a personal level.

On my own personal forum, we have a feature called "Destynee's Plan", where we work with you on a one-on-one basis to teach you how to project.  You might find it a bit more progressive to random posts here on the Pulse.  Click here:  www.astralacademy.com

Yup, it's all about finding your "non-physical focus"... then "focusing on the target to the point where you loose awareness of your physical surroundings". 

Projection is all about removing your awareness from your (the) physical surroundings and allowing any other reality to whoosh in to fill the gap. 
Kind of like how wind happens... hot air rises from the ground, which causes cooler air to whoosh in under it, causing "wind".

I read on other website and opinion are split some people say pay close attention to this shapes and that how you progress other say ignore them completely .
what i was doing always was when i saw something i start to pay attention and focus on this shapes really hard ( just like u try to see something very far or you trying to hear some quiet noise ) and they start to be more sharp i see clear borders between black and white but then they just stop and disappears
i used to but now i dont talk to myself while doing this

This is where it gets REALLY confusing.

I didn't say not to pay close attention to them, I said to not put any thought into them.  You can and should definitely pay close attention to them... in fact, pay so much attention to them that you allow them to draw your awareness INTO them.  That's the entire point of the Noticing Exercise.  What I meant in my first post was that through this process you shouldn't really be thinking about anything.  Allow whatever you're seeing to do whatever it wants to do, but allow yourself to use that dancing imagery to draw yourself into the scene.   

Sorry that I wasn't more clear about that earlier.  Definitely my bad. 

You shouldn't be thinking about anything really... just go with what's being shown to you.  Allow yourself to see it with no judgment.
If you begin to think about things, you'll begin to analyze what you see... that will bring your intellect into the equation and, for most people, will ruin the experience by shooting you out of it.

@Xanth

Explain it to me then. How true is that statement?

That's part of your journey!

But a hint: You're not alive right now.

If nothing happens (likely), then life goes on and you were wrong.
If "something" (read: anything) happens... you're going to come here and exclaim you were right. 

I'm already dead. 

You don't realize just how true that statement is. 

"Something", eh?  How very... general.   

@Xanth

Thanksss!! this really cheers people up, I'll be making some lemonaade soon, or just the most out of anything I get in life 

Also, If I go into the astral and start helping people, doing retrievals or i have this recurrent dreams were I help the same old lady again and again, is that weird? I mean in doing good deeds you get good coming to you... those deesds that will randomly come back at you in a good way improves or upgrades or just betters itself in invisible quantities or whatsoever?? I woulnt be sure about this things, but i just think 1 plus 1 equals in the astral is two ones in the same instead of two. lol this may not make sense

It's all based upon your Intent.

WHY are you doing it?  <-- that can actually be a difficult question to answer, the ego tends to REALLY get in the way.

That's why I say that in this life, your consciousness-goal is to "Purify your Intent".  The more you purify your Intent, the more the choices you make are based upon Love and not Fear. 

You're right that they didn't benefit consciousness, but proponents of General Systems Theory and Ervin Laszlo with his budapest club are doing good things these days.

I like to explain it like this:

Consider that when you physically die, everything that stays within THIS physical reality is meaningless.
What you take with you when you finally leave this physical reality is all that TRULY matters. 

Look up Enchroma glasses, and also reaction videos to people trying them on. I'm not sure if it will help answer your question but at the very least it's a wonderful thing to watch.

To be honest, it wasn't a question I personally wanted answered.
It was, as some figured out (), a question to get everyone to consider "individual perception".   

There are important people who helped shape culture and human thinking. If you don't consider these people as important, then that's your choice. If you don't support the "great man theory" formulated by Thomas Carlyle and you agree with Herbert Spencer who criticized the theory by stating that great men are products of their environment, then that's also your choice. As for me, i feel inspired by great men of science and philosophy, i feel ecstatic and a rush of energy when reading their works. It's the process of integration itself that counts in this case, which is of spirit, the scattered knowledge acquired from the environment is of secondary importance. Spirit over matter. The greatest minds in history were idealists, and materialists draw upon their works. Look at Hegel, an idealist, if it wasn't for him, then where would Marx and Engels ( founders of dialectical materialism) be? On the shoulders of Kant? Another idealist? Probably.

Things turn into their opposite, so don't be surprised if tomorrow you encounter your shadow and don't know how to deal with it.

No no, you misunderstand.  The difference here is talking "physical" vs "non-physical"...
There are definitely great people who have existed who have changed the course of human history.  Benjamin Franklin... Nikola Tesla... just two examples.
But it doesn't mean those changes actually ever benefited *consciousness*. 

They made great advances within this PHYSICAL reality.  I'm not talking about anything physical.  I'm talking about the aspects of consciousness that go BEYOND this physical reality... even though they are, actually, one in the same, but more "consciousness" as a whole.

[set loose by the Tibetans to approach and attack me]

In my case however, the demon was conjured, but not by me. I know he was set loose by the Tibetans to approach and attack me for evolutionary purposes. On the side, i know that to conjure a demon, one has to know its code. Only with this code, unknown regions of some brain can be hacked.

If I'm being 100% honest here and I REALLY don't mean this in any negative way but... you're not that important.  Nobody is.

This is the problem today with "the one" mentality that most people have in regards to consciousness and spirituality.
You're interpreting random events as something with significance... sometimes a cake is just a cake.

What have you experienced?  You experienced something created entirely BY yourself FOR yourself to satiate your ego desire to fulfill your interpretation of a random event.

Nah can't be... Well I sometimes rush up the stairs at night. But nothing like being actually scared of the dark. I guess I feel cozy because the lamp is off and I can finally try to astral project.

I think you should further explore that.
You might have a fear which you simply refuse to acknowledge... maybe due to an associated fear of feeling like it's a "childhood" thing.

There's nothing wrong with a fear of the dark.  Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. 

Trust me, I understand completely.  I've been waking up in the middle of the night my entire life to seeing things and people walking around my room.  I've learned to live with it... so it doesn't bother me anymore.

Well, I don't know about "tenfold", but like definitely attracts like.
If you're a positive, upbeat, always-seeing-the-good-in-life kind of person... then yes, you're going to have more good times than bad.

The last part there is the point though... you will still have BAD things happen to you.  It's also not JUST that bad things happen to you... it's that you don't allow them to drag you down. 

It IS just that easy... but it's also hard.  Have you ever been having such a bad day that you simply couldn't imagine being happy during it?  That's the trick. 
The trick is allowing everything to be as it is and stop fighting against what life throws you. 

"If life gives you lemons, make lemonade"... kind of sums it up nicely actually. 
It's easy to say, harder to do.

I began focusing on the positive aspects of life a couple years ago... and I can tell you, from personal experience, how doing this doesn't just change your life... it changes your reality. 

Just note I'm not taking sides here... I'd just prefer people didn't attribute "emotions" to a text based discussion where knowing what emotions are being used is close to impossible.
Always read things as neutrally as you can... never infer and certainly never attribute your own emotional bias to something you're reading. 

That's how we end up getting along and learning to allow things (and people!) to be as they are. 

Just locking this up as we don't need anymore side tracking... and this topic is pretty much dead now. 

Have you considered you may have a fear of the dark?  However slight?

There is no conspiracy.  The world is turning to crap because of pure greed and the low level consciousness of those whose lives are run for the sake of their new god: money.   It's so simple, it's stupid really.  The vast minority will do whatever they can to hold on.

Meanwhile, the rest of the world is waking up to that and seems keen on fighting back.

Whatever happens, happens.  In the grand scheme of things it doesn't really matter anyway.   Life will go on (maybe not yours or my lives), spirituality will progress or not and that is that.  

I'm assuming this is shot from a bed or floor looking upwards at the ceiling?
What were the sources of light?  If you're sure there were no bugs... the skeptic would definitely say "dust". 
But, I'm unsure.  They are impressive, to say the least. 

I've always wondered what they even are.  I mean, if we're to take the MBT perspective... they're a physical representation of some kind of data in this reality.  But what do they represent, is the question...

Per your email address, are you affiliated with them by any chance?

hey homeboys and homegirls,
this is my first post so be gentle.

I won't go into the details of the astral projection but when i woke up after this experience i was completely amazed...still in a dazy state (as i just woke up) i turned my head to see a reflection of me in the wooden part of my bed, the reflection of me looked like a ghost and just stared at me ..this was extremely frightening but i continued to look at my reflection as i thought for some reason i should. this was weird as wood doesn't generate a reflection and i knew there was something strange happening.

after this i rationalized and thought it could have been a dream, but now in a more awake state i turned my head to see the same reflection in the wall.still starring at me..leaving me incomplete awe..

this happen a year ago and still leaves me pondering..
can anybody explain this to me?

First, if you were aware (like you are right now) while you were having this experience, then it was a projection.   
I won't get into the fine details of "dreams" vs "projections" right now though.  You DID project. 

Things can happen in the non-physical that don't follow our known physical reality physics. 
Each reality in the non-physical (who knows how many there are, infinite?) has it's own set of rules and how much our consciousness can act within it.

Just be aware that you were consciously aware while experiencing the non-physical.  That is a projection.

I guess my question is in relation to this:  colours... as defined by whom?
