I hope its a cocktail you like. Id suggest the elixir of life, look for the one with the fountain of youth on the label.

Yeah, the sad part is that I cant transport them here. Border control is pretty strict  LOL

So erm, I wondered..what you doing after school ?   LOL

Great post  

you mean after school hours every day? I go get a drink in the astral   LOL

If your goal somehow gets achieved the way you plan it, this school will be closed and the students released without given the chance to finish their education. They entered this school by choice, knowing the difficulties that were set up ahead of them. They picked the classes that best suit their needs of development. The so called "evil" is just a tool, nothing more.

I earned a green belt in Kung Fu back in college, but haven't practiced since. Never experienced it in the astral though, maybe because I haven't really thought about fighting there. I have had energy/thoughts fights but not physical like. Your experience is very interesting though. I think maybe by attending classes in the astral, we can enhance the same abilities here in the physical. I wonder if I go to an art class, if I will be able to paint when I wake up lol.

I was taken to a science class once, where humans and aliens were working together. I saw all kinds of formulas being drawn on a black board.

The last post makes me feel as though this is some hippy "Just go with it man" type of stuff.

On the contrary, with every challenge you have to work hard, solve problems, analyze, realize, etc. It is not just go with the flow because my higher self and set it up. It was set up for you to fight it. You got it backwards, stickytoes. And by all means you have to fight for your fellow men, help and provide guidance if you have the opportunity. That is a part of the experience. Why am I bothering writing my experiences here on this forum if I already know how to project and don't need help from anyone? Because I want to help and guide and see others succeed. Make sense?
As for Hendrix, what was he in the lives before the one he learned the guitar? I agree that we sort of roll over some traits from one life no another immediate one. But we must have started at some point somewhere as new spirits. Think about it. It is the ego that makes us think that we could have never been limited in any way during our physical experiences, but perhaps you will understand it when you are free of these boundaries.

Like, if we chose our situation, as bad as this sounds, wouldn't everybody choose to be beautiful?

The spirit in its purest state does not think like a human. When life situations are chosen, it is from the prospective of what knowledge needs to be received rather than what pleasures there will be experienced. The pleasures in this world are so pathetic in comparison to higher level experiences, so the soul isn't interested to create exclusively easy and fun temporary life. The purpose of why do we enter these low dimensions in the first place are far more important and complicated, than creating a beautiful body and lots of money lol. However, during different lives we experience different things. The higher self sets up lots of different scenarios so that you can see how it is on both sides of the fens. To evaluate different values you need to experience what it is to be accepted and admired and also what it is to be rejected. In one situation you may be smart, wise and beautiful. In another ugly, dumb and bad. In a third one a combination. It's all about covering various experiences to evaluate and expand.
As far as beautiful thoughts altering physical appearance. It is possible to some degree, but the frequency here is so low that our thought's impact cant manifest things 100%. Beautiful thoughts though in general attract alike circumstances, etc. But the general situations established from the higher self must be encountered. That's why the law o attraction everyone talk about is very hard to accomplish. Again we may desire certain things as humans and dream of easy, fun life, but our paths are pinned to some degree so to speak because our spirit has the need to receive missing pieces through experiences that we should accept and extract as much knowledge as we can.
Every challenge shows that there is something we are missing in our understanding. We musn't blame anyone or anything, but think what it is that I must learn. As soon as you realize, this situation will never repeat again.

A few who stand out: Robert Monroe, Thomas Campbell, Gandalf, LionHeart, Xanth, Frank Kepple,
Szaxx, Bedeekin Summerlander, Lightbeam.

Yay, my name is on your list    although I haven't posted nearly as much as the other members,  but I try to select the most interesting trips.
I'm glad our experiences and guidance are helpful to others. The greatest reward to me is to learn that people are benefiting from our exchange of information and discussions.
Please do share your experiences with us!!!! 

I am glad you liked that OBE everyone 
Since then, I have had numerous OBE meetings with my dad. One time I wanted to see him again and I was teleported to a beautiful lake, surrounded with mountains. He was sitting in a boat, fishing. He liked fishing a lot in the physical.
We didn't get to talk, but he saw me standing on the shore and waved and smiled. I knew he was happy and that was enough for my peace of mind.

  She then said I took her pain away and promptly bought the Salt Bowl with the balls.

Way to make money out of your psychic abilities, Lionheart lol, jk

But yeah, I know what you mean by building up gradually certain abilities.

Lionheart, I have been trying remotely to heal people since I was a child, without even letting know the ill person that I am doing it. I have had success, but not exactly to the degree I would like to achieve.

Gemeni76, OMG, when I looked at the cover of that book, this is exactly how the beam came down and shot into my throat and wrists. How freaky 

Lately I have been focusing on asking very specific questions during OBEs
Here is what happened when I did so during one:
I transferred from a lucid dream, and the moment I realized it, I immediately asked the following question very clearly: "How can I receive a healing power and use it in the physical?". At that very moment as I was standing alone in some sort of a meadow, the sky opened and a laser like white beam shot straight into my throat area, cut it open and inserted some sort of a silver substance. Next thing I know the wrists of my hands got striked by the laser and the same thing happened to them. During these quick "procedures" I was completely stunned, shocked, screaming but wasn't able to hear my voice very clearly. It was sort of painful but not unbearable. Then I woke up and was completely blown out by this experience.
I was very curious the next day if I indeed received some sort of a healing power. I decided to test it on myself and stop my cold I had at the time. No success. That was about a week ago. I haven't tried anything else since then. But I don't feel any different power wise LOL. Well, I can guess I can keep asking more questions until I become clear how exactly can we gain and use such abilities in the physical world. There must be a way for sure. But it was definitely a hell of an experience 

Am I right in saying I would simply visualize my astral body within my physical body "rocking" or "loosening" even?

Something like that, but try to MOVE it with your thoughts and FEEL it, instead of picturing it rocking and vibrating. Initiate the inner movements with your thoughts.
Here is something you can try right now as you are awake. It does not involve meditation or anything. Simply lay down, close your eyes and  start vibrating your inner body with your thoughts. You can start with low buzz and increase to a very fast current. What do you experience? You wont separate or even get closer, but you will get an idea what exactly to do when the early morning opportunity arrives.

Also I must admit to not really knowing what to do next, when I find this happening again. 

Lay still and dont try to move or wake up completely. Immediately think that you are standing next to the door, or picture any location within your room, and most likely you will find yourself standing there, no more vibrations or noises, feeling very much like you are with your physical body. Give it a try.

Keep trying with the early morning method. It's been proven to be one of the most effective especially for beginners. When you wake up in the middle of the night, get up, drink some water, then get back into a comfortable sleeping position and immediately while your mind is still somewhat awake, start rocking your inner body and mentally initiate a buzzing sound in your head. It usually takes me few seconds and I start experiencing the vibes, From there is easy, just imagine yourself standing next to the door and bam, you are out.
If you cant naturally wake up early, set your alarm clock for around 3am. Along with mentally initiating vibrations within your inner body, you can keep repeating  " I am out of body".

Mine are usually long, few hrs astral time. Many times upon return of a short one, I immediately focus on separating again without giving myself a chance to wake my physical body, so that way I can have 5 or 6 OBEs on a row. I usually initiate my exist when I briefly wake up during the night. Sometimes I look at the clock and it happens around 3am. I know for a fact that shortly after dosing off I separate, because I dont even fall asleep completely and I can feel my dual awareness. 90% of the time I experience strong vibrations which I initiate on purpose. That helps with the amount of consciousness, awareness, clarity, etc. Then I snap back when it's time for me to naturally wake up around 6am. So, that there is 3 hrs.
Buhlman is right about focusing one one goal to keep your clarity. Although, sometimes just a simple command does not work. It is the thought behind the verbal statement that counts, not just saying it.

I've always had the awareness that there was more than our physical reality. My beliefs in magic and fairy tales never changed as I grew older. And while I was seeing the change in my friends, I didn't think that my beliefs made me abnormal or weird. On the contrary, I felt that I knew secrets that only a handful of people knew about our universe, and our selves as spiritual beings. I did not grow up with religion or any type of spiritualism, considering the state of my country being under a communist regime at the time, so there was no external influence whatsoever.
When I was 5 I had a non human visitor one afternoon while playing in my room. I have this experience posted on the forum. I don't think that it was an OBE though.
Later in high school I came across Monroe's books and instantly knew that this was the gateway to inner knowledge.  My excitement as I read the books was off the charts. Everything made sense and I was presented with a very doable method to try to go out of my body. His method however did not work for me, despite the long tries. And even today after many OBE experiences, I cant simply OBE from a meditative state. I must fall asleep during visualization, or early morning affirmations.
Anyway, my successful methods I found years later in William Buhlman's books and three weeks after starting his techniques I had my very first full blown OBE. Even though I knew that it was real, that morning after snapping back into my body was probably the most exiting day of my life, not because my OBE was phenomenal, but because for the first time I felt invincible. I felt that there was nothing stopping me of exploring the endless and exciting multiverse. I felt completely free of all boundaries and just by thinking of the possibilities, my mind was spinning out of control.
Shortly after, I joined William Buhlman's forum, which unfortunately was shut down after a while, due to few religious fanatics and lack of moderators.
My career took over priorities and I slowed down with the internet communications. Few months ago I decided to look for an active OBE forum, and I that's how I joined the Pulse.

I don't think I was ever a frog or anything similar to that.
But it could be hundreds or billions of years before you comeback to reincarnate in the physical.

But what do you suppose the spirit of a frog is? Isn't it made from the same substance as yours? Then I think your higher self and that of the frog are not so different. So, logically our spirits can reincarnate into anything and everything in any given reality with various densities.
As far as time goes, billions of years in the inner dimensions are very differently perceived than in earthly years. In fact your higher self is experiencing many incarnations in many realities, in many shapes and forms simultaneously. What you perceive as yourself at the moment is just a small part of your complete self, observed at a particular point of your infinite experiences.

That's the technique I use the most, and succeed 99% of the time. What I do when I wake up in the middle of the night, is get up to drink some water, then get back into a comfortable sleeping position and immediately while my mind is still somewhat awake, start rocking my inner body and mentally initiate a buzzing sound in my head. It takes me few seconds and I start experiencing the vibes, From there is easy, just imagine yourself standing next to the door and bam, you are out.
It is important though to not wait and naturally wake up in the morning, because if your body is already refreshed, you wont be able to intentionally put it back to sleep. Or at least it will be much harder. Many people make the wrong assumption that through long relaxation and meditation will be able to achieve OBE. That happens rarely and the evidence is the numerous posts here about trying for years to OBE through meditation practiced when your body and brain do not need rest. Your brain needs to be in theta or delta sate to allow your inner "senses" or awareness(however you call it) to observe the non physical reality through suppression of the physical senses. Through meditation you can definitely experience some inner flash visions, sounds, etc, but it is hard to achieve a full OBE. And if you do, it will be short, because your brain is charged and will not remain in forced sleeping mode for long, thus it will bring you back simply by waking up.

Ok, that's good that you have no fear or disappointment if you should fail (at least not a severe one. We are humans after all). I have found tension, fear and deadlines settings to be very strong barriers of the LOA.
Eagerness could potentially create a resistance, but lets test it 

Now, since you mentioned that your desire is monetary, I would say that you general believe of wealth and abundance is very important. You can spend the whole day imagining your desire, but if your subconscious belief is opposing the idea, it may take a long time for something of the sort to penetrate into your physical reality.
I would suggest not to pick a particulate situation that will bring you that amount, but focus on the feeling of what it is to be debt free and it might be helpful to imagine every time that the amount of the loan decreases significantly. Imagine your bank statement and observe the numbers changing going down to zero.

Another exercise could be to imagine your debit statement increasing. Put few more zeroes behind your current balance. How would you feel?

Ay the end of the day though, release the worries and tension and tell yourself that the universe works with you and all your needs will be met. Trust in it with your entire being and you would be surprised how letting go really starts lining up your life with significant positive events that you haven't really expected.

Perhaps before I try to ap I should say where I want to go to.  What do you think?  Thanks for your replies.

Thats exactly what you should do! This method creates a narrow stream of thoughts and it will keep you in track.

Please, answer the following questions and I will try to evaluate the efficacy of your LOA method:

Do you believe that your desire is realistic and it could happen without strict concentration, but just buy natural circumstances?

Are you afraid that your desire will not manifest? What would be the degree of your disappointment?

How eager are you to achieve your goal?

any tips on the best way to get out if i make it this far again   

If you linger in this stare too long lust "observing" what is happening, the chance of an AP is very slim. My suggestion is as soon as you realize that you are partially tuning to the higher realms, dont waste time and immediately think that you are standing by the door. To me that is the easiest spot to imagine. That's all to it. Simple enough, but very effective. If you have trouble imagining, then say it out loud and apply a thought effort, sort of move yourself with your thoughts.

I second what Lionheart said about programing your thoughts before falling asleep. This works extremely well. And try to hold the thoughts of your goal as long as you can before passing out. Let your brainwaves transition with thoughts running. This is the most effective way to keep your consciousness awake for OBE attempts, but also for accomplishing and remembering what do you want to accomplish during an OBE. In your case I would suggest to say to yourself "My consciousness is fully awake. I remember my projections and easily navigate the experience."

Hi,
Did you want to stay there?

That was the firs time where I was completely consumed by the experience and emotions that my thoughts about my physical self were more like distant memories, not of significance anymore. But as I said there was so much more that I received in forms of information and feelings that I cant fully transcribe now. But, yes I felt complete and the closest to understanding of what exactly means "no beginning and no end".
I snapped back to my body automatically at one point, but I cant really tell how much in earthly time I spent there. When I returned, I had goose bumps all over, still feeling the vibrations and sounds in my ears.
