I think he could be a good teacher. I've seen two of his videos but he charges for skypes / lessons of his techniques.

In the videos where he teaches obe for free on YouTube, he takes a while to teach the technique. If he would get to the point I would see him as a very good teacher.

The book I want to ask my subconscious about is a math book.

Would I be able to ask my spirit guide or a master?

Or through the akashic records learn the part of the book over a few projections once I get used to projecting?

Thanks.

Can the subconscious be accessed during a ld/projection?

An example could be flipping through a book then going to sleep projecting/lding successfully. Then asking a character you make your subconscious to explain the book to you.

Would this work?

Also can anyone help me with the techniques I'm practicing from the book?

I awaken after six hours of sleep (on days off. only 2-3 times a week) then I go back to sleep w/an intention. I've awoken twice on two nights over the past three weeks. I can't do it / forget to do it because I'm tired during the awakenings.

What have successful people used in order to go through the techniques?

Thanks.

Hi,
I posted a topic a little over a year ago. I shared my experiences about trying techniques from a site called obe4u.

I've been trying two to three days a week for the past three weeks and have had a few experiences. (Haven't had an obe or ld or ap).

I want to know if anyone has been able to access the subconscious during an obe/ ld/ ap?

Thanks.

I used / followed a link from here http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/welcome_to_astral_consciousness/good_meditation_tape_for_phasing-t46114.0.html

9/24/2015

Meditated / phased w/ astral projection binaural beats from youtube. Looked at darkness behind eyes then got a flash of very quick images.

Later got a feeling that my head was shaking physically couldn't tell if it was real or not.

Also my body felt like little rushing electricity was going through it.

I believe I was in a light trance.

I also at a point reached for the vibrations hence the reason why my head was shaking.

There was a medium ringing in my ears.

If I did the yoyo technique and the vibrations went all over my body. Should I have got up from my chair?

Would that most likely complete the exit?

Also I stopped at 13 minutes.

9/8/2015 - 12 mins out of 20 lasted (using a timer I couldn't last 20 mins).

Meditated like usual but focused on the blackness behind eyes. Saw a bunch of images like a movie. Then felt a part of my awareness [mind] was in another place.

I did this after reading a part of Xanth's book on noticing (that's the part I'm on). I wasn't like an astral projection / obe but like a mental dissociation.

Are there any other good books I could use in addition to that?

Thanks.

In the book I'm reading the author says that I may not be using imaginary hands (which I also use to raise energy) enough. Or with more commitment could be the reason I'm not projecting out of my body completely.

The technique I'm trying to use is the tunnel technique from a website named in5d.

Should I try to feel my whole emulated astral body going through a tunnel like flying with both arms out front?

Thanks.

Not deep enough and thinking too much. You need to trance down til you do not feel your body with a gentle focus away from your body. You have to be right at the edge of falling asleep without loosing your focus. practice in a chair til you get go completely numb in the body otherwise it's nap time.

I'm working on getting a chair. I've been doing the meditations on my bed.

Could you explain in more detail (or give me a weblink) on what to do?

Thanks.

Relaxed / tensed my muscles a couple of times (progressive muscle relaxation).

Then did eternal step visualization, then visualized fall into dark hole (this got a a weak to mid falling sensation).

Then did exit technique then my head felt like it was going forward while I had little electronic pulses throughout my body (like bouncing my head forward and backward).

Then nothing happened.

During the middle my whole body felt like it was being rained on from the inside, or having energy (electricity) run through it.

Is this how I'm supposed to AP?

What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
I was in a hospital earlier this year because of mental problems. I remember one night that I woke up between 2 and 3 am and felt I was being raped (in the anus) by a spirit. It was through (or happened) through a masturbation technique I use. After I climaxed I felt like I had been beat up and had depressional feelings for days after that.

The second time I was in my bed at home and the same thing happened but I felt it was the astral body of a person I work with for my disability that was raping me (through the same masturbation technique).

Are there any good books on psychic / astral protection?

I know Robert Bruce has one.

Thanks.

Hi,
Over last week one of the days I awoke consciously in the middle of my sleep between three and four times. I was too tired / didn't focus on the techniques within those wake ups. Does anybody have any tips on how to wake up consciously in the middle of sleep like the book (the phase from obe4u) says? Do I just need to have a strong intention?

Thanks.

2 tips and advices

1) do exactly as Raduga suggested. wake up after a few hours, drink a glass of water and back to sleep with an intention of projecting. then the second you wake up again, try to separate without opening your eyes or moving your body. the best and most easiest method for me is rolling side to side, which is confusing in Raduga's book since he doesn't verbalize it this way. just roll your body side to side as you're laying on your back and you should roll out with your astral body onto the  floor. other methods that worked for me were... the rope technique, imagine there is a rope going to the ceiling, visualize extending your astral arms, and pull your astral body out by climbing the rope. and the third, but the most rarest working method, is to 'jump' into your visualization. but that would usually project you to the visualization itself, like a beach or another place. if you're a beginner, i'd suggest to sticking with projecting into your room/house. you want to explore step by step and not jump into the deepest ocean, if you know what i mean

2) experiment. yes, Raduga suggests you sleep 6 hours, and stay awake for 30 mins. but from experimenting, i found that the best method FOR ME is to sleep 3-4 hours, and stay awake 3-4 hours as well. i dont even need to do Raduga's method anymore, because as i go back to sleep and relax, my body tends to go into the vibrational stage and i would have an OBE. everybody's body is different. you gotta find what YOUR body prefers and how YOUR body functions. for example, staying up 5-10 minutes for me doesn't work. i just go back to sleep. and staying up for 30 minutes is even worse, because I have a really really really hard time falling back asleep for a few hours at least. so, like i said, experiment and find what works best for you. but do stick to Raduga's method for now, unless you already had a bunch of OBEs.

Thanks,
I asked on another forum and the person said I didn't need to do the ninety minute technique because over time I would remember more dreams.

I think I'm going to stick with the 90 minute technique for at least a week more and if it doesn't work, then I'll go back to the obe4u techniques. So far the most dreams I've gotten to record is two doing this technique.

Also yesterday I had a dream that felt like an obe, but I didn't have full control of it.

Yesterday I really wanted to recall my dreams because of the breaking news of a celebrity death and wanted to see if I could meet that celebrity in the astral realm through a dream.

Also I got this from another forum but saying "What was I just dreaming?" out loud also helps in recalling dreams. I did it this morning and that's how I got the details feelings it was an obe dream.

Thanks.

I finally had a partial LD / very vivid dream last night.

Also I remembered between three to five dreams, but only remembered to record two of them last night.

One of the dreams was where I was going to get into a fight with a bold European guy because he was xenophobic against me for my appearance.

Another dream was where I was in a restaurant in Atlanta,Ga and the police were interrogating / about to arrest an employee that didn't want to do his job.

I remembered the dreams doing the 90 minute technique I put in an earlier post.

I couldn't go to sleep hardly last night because I was trying to visualize for the MILD technique and I figured out that visualization right before sleep keeps me up.

I'm going to try to visualize during the day and an hour or two before I go to sleep.

Thanks.

Hi,
I awoke multiple times this morning thanks to the affirmations, also I remember either last night or early this morning having vibrations. I also recalled at least one dream.

Thanks.

Thanks LionHeart,
I've kept re-reading a certain part of the book and it says to do a reality check every time you do something (a certain action). Or set an alarm every hour or two to do a reality check. Instead I've been saying four affirmations I've made up every time I go into / out of a door. An example could be I'm about to exit a room I then say affirmation 1, then I go into another room affirmation 2, then I go out that same door affirmation 3, and the process keeps repeating its self.

Also I say all affirmations at the start of a song I'm listening to on YouTube, then in the middle of the song (a minute or two depending on the length of the song), then at the end of the song or when it's stopped.

You're right affirmations are very powerful because I remember repeating an affirmation to myself for two or three days in high school and actually believed it.  

I'm also not ready to do an actual / physical reality check until I record more dreams so I can notice more dream signs / DT's.


Again thanks.

I recorded a dream this morning and have been noticing for the past two days that I forget some of the dream. I usually write keywords, then go back to sleep. I'll go back to the keywords a couple of hours later and I notice that I forgot a part of the dream (a certain keyword).

Also I'm not going to do DT's until I at least get twenty to thirty dreams in my dream journal.

Thanks.

Affirmations are VERY POWERFUL. I use them every day. No skipping, lol.

I found that you have to be quick to write all the important stuff down right away after awaking from a Dream. But your Dream recall will improve the more you exercise it, just like a muscle. Try not to skip a day though, because one day will become two days, then a week and so on. Stick to your guns.  

Also, when writing down your Dreams. Do a section under your current Dream on "Dream triggers" that led you to become Lucid in them. This will be very helpful for you in the future. EscapeVelocity came up with this up recently and it is very good technique for continuing to become Lucid in your Dreams.
Here's the thread talking about it: http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/welcome_to_dreams/how_to_avoid_a_ld_despite_9_easy_dream_triggers-t44860.0.html

Thanks,
I read it in a little hurry, but will have to re-read it maybe a couple of times to understand it. Also I've got a couple of affirmations I've been saying since last night and they're pretty good.

Again thanks.

If your excited to try again then go ahead IMO.  Affirmations are VERY powerful.  I usually don't project 2 nights in a row, but I did last night and the night before.  I said my affirmations before bed both nights, and both mornings I projected.  The second morning I didn't even try.  It just happened because of the affirmation.

Don't worry about the half awake half asleep thing.  It happens.  Just keep practicing and your first fully lucid one will just happen out of the blue.  Then after that, you'll recall the way that experience felt and you'll be able to much more easily bring yourself to full lucidity again.

Also, if you have another half awake half asleep one, if you're lucid enough to remember these instructions, interact with your environment- rub your hands together -touch a wall and feel it's texture -ask yourself who am I?  Where am I?  That should bring you around to full lucidity.  You probably already knew that with all the reading you've been doing!   Good luck!

Thanks,
This morning I had three to five lucid / vivid dreams but didn't remember / process them because I just laid in bed.

I'll also have to make up an affirmation and look up some exit techniques.

I'll post an update tomorrow.

I've been reading a book called "A field guide to lucid dreaming". It's virtually a couple of new facts mixed with what a person (like me) who's been studying LDing for a year or a couple of years, has already known.

It says to not move when awakening (just like the phase book from obe4u), and to say an affirmation before sleep etc... To anticipate the dream recall / actual LDing etc... it's virtually a rip off of knowledge available on the internet.

I might try to do the techniques from the phase book earlier than I committed to only because of boredom. Should I?

Also can someone comment on the half awake half asleep post I put previous to this one?

Thanks.

Hi,
I set my alarm for 4am this morning (didn't realize it wasn't two weeks yet) and reviewed the techniques I was going to use then went back to sleep.

I woke up this morning two or three times. Within those two or three times I had a vivid / partial LD. In one of my dreams I met a celebrity. But the thing was that during the dream / recall it felt like I was half awake half asleep. I'm not going to try until next week because I made a mistake of not practicing for two weeks.

Thanks.

How many times a night are you trying to project? If you're trying 3-5 times you have a higher chance of success than if you tried only once. But if you're using an alarm to wake you up I can see how that would tire you out.

I wasn't trying before I went to sleep or during the night, but upon awakening all the times I tried. I tried it upon awakening. Also most of the time I would only awaken once during the morning. I remember waking up twice in the morning, but that was only once or twice. For most of the days (or at least the first week) I would try setting various alarms on my cell phone to wake me up during the night at various times. When I resume I'm going to only set one or two alarms to wake me up so I can re-read the instructions, then trying upon my first awakening. Also it was very annoying waking up to the alarm no matter what volume it was.

Thanks.

An OBE is a lucid dream where you're in a familiar place.  Which are both projections.  No difference.

Sometimes people have many experiences in a short time span... sometimes they don't.
Stop trying so hard and you might have more success. 

Thanks, but then what's the big difference between an obe and a LD? I had some recall (not total) of a vivid dream today and I remember kissing a girl through a partially open door and the kiss (not also minding she was good looking) was like a video game emulator. I could feel her tongue, the saliva, her lips, etc...

Also when talking to the dead / current living people in LD's is it really communication with the dead or is that only in obe's?

Thanks.

I awoke this morning at 8 something in the morning and it didn't work. I've been trying it everyday since the first post and am deciding to take two weeks off and after that I'm only going to try it three days a week because I do feel that it has tired me out. Also I just wanted to mostly get lucid dreams not obe's until I had more experience. I remember posting on this forum that when I was doing it three times a week I was having lucid dreams. Thanks for all the support, when the two weeks are over I'll post in this topic again and restart the conversation or we can even continue this conversation until then.

All the electricity feelings you're experiencing is fantastic. You're very close. This is exactly what I'm going through. Every time you wake up try to project no matter what. Even if you have moved. Be mechanical and don't even think about it.

The other night at about 2AM I was awake for a whole 5 minutes before remember to attempt a projection, and I was very surprised when I heard this whooshing sound. I had even moved slightly a couple minutes earlier. So it can happen when you least expect it. With every awakening focus as much as you can on instantly attempting a projection after waking up. It becomes stronger as the night goes on.

Thanks, but last night I didn't awake probably because I set my awake alarm 3 hours after I went to sleep. I'll have to try to go to sleep a little bit earlier. It's probably like soarin said that it depends on how many hours I go to sleep.
