When you said you can have psychic abilities, did you read it in a book or have you known people to have developed psychic abilities. 

The other replies were good.  You need to change what you think will happen.  If you change your thinking you will not have any problems.

Congratulations 

Congratulations.

Congratulations Xanth, you do a great job.  Your replies to the threads are very good as well.

I have but it was an accident.  I had an ap experience and I must have been thinking about being on the computer.  I was on the computer typing on the ap forum letting everyone know how my experience went.  I thought I was physically typing it.  I did not realise that I was spiritually doing it. 

Interesting and I think I agree but (not wanting to be rude) ultimately irrelevant because the very fact that I misinterpreted Xanth means that the same could happen again to someone else. Someone who comes onto the forum afresh could quite easily misunderstand such comments.

Factually speaking I guess it's all a matter of opinion.

I can understand how you would feel.  With this type of subject, ap, cannot be proven so there are no facts and no evidence.  What you read on the internet or in ap books is their opinion and it can be a lot of rubbish or a bit of rubbish.  That is the way it is.

If you do not like my suggestion, you could do an ap technique.  That should be a lot easier to do.  It should work.

I have been thinking.  This whole forum cannot be proven.  There are no facts.  It is peoples opinions and ideas.  As this forum cannot be proven, I do not think Xanth should have to say this is my opinion.  On this forum, everything we say is our opinion so it should not be any different for Xanth.

Yeah I agree as well but that's not my point is it. My point is his sentences are not clear whether he is offering opinion or purporting fact. No where in my statement do I say he is not entitled to an opinion do I?

OK I suppose he should have been clearer.  I am sure Xanth meant well and was trying to do his best.  We are not perfect.  Everyone makes mistakes.

I agree with you Xanth, it is your opinion.  Everyone is entitled to their opinion. 

An experiment.
Foods were mostly removed so ate little. Sugar intake through the roof I had around 1/2 lb of the stuff and with that around 3 pints of average coffee sweetened heavily.
As the body absorbs liquids and sugars readily I spread this throughout the day. I had a few hours of sleep the prior night.
This concoction should have rendered my chances near zero.
It had no detrimental effect at all. I had a somewhat lucid dream where a 007 type of chase for a USB stick.....I being Bond. This ended in the Bond way with a beutiful female. Such dreams are rare in female detail   one in two years on average.
The food myth is busted.
Sugar feeds the brain and being fully hydrated keeps you wide awake.

The experiment may be done again, I enjoyed the magic.  

Thanks for letting us know.  I hope this will put peoples mind at rest.

Cmon, it must have an effect. After all isn't fasting considered a valid OBE technique? Eating supposedly grounds you more in the physical. A lack of food weakens the veil as they say.

Years ago I spoke to someone about this.  He said he fasted and it did not work.  He then did not drink water and that did not work as well.  I think it is not good to be hungry or thirsty.  If you are comfortable you have a higher chance to ap.  That is my opinion.

I think I now understand why people seem to ignore what I say.  They do not understand or do not know how to do it.  I wish I could explain how to do it.  I find it very easy but I realise that does not help you.  All I can say is when you spiritually move, it feels like you are physically moving yourself but you are not.  If you find it hard to spiritually move then use your mind to push you away from your body.  The only way to do it is to practice.  The more practice you get, the easier it will get.

I am glad you do not have a problem with drinking coffee Szaxx.  I drink two small cups of weak coffee everyday.  I like my coffee and I would not like to give it up.  I also have a hot chocolate milk drink every day but not on hot days.  When the weather is hot I drink a banana milkshake instead.   

If you eat too much food and you are feeling uncomfortable, it mostly likely be a lot harder to ap.  If I feel I am getting a stomach ache or if I am feeling full, I will not try to ap.   I do not smoke or drink alcohol so I am not able to comment if it would make ap harder.   I drink tea, coffee and hot chocolate every day.  I hope that would not make ap harder.  I could be wrong but I do not think it would.  I do not drink excessive amounts of drinks.

All of a sudden I felt my body detach

Forget trying to increase the vibrations.  You are free to go.  All you have to do is to move yourself, spiritually.

It depends on the vibration that you get.  If you feel yourself swaying for example, it is a good idea to spiritually move away.  If you ignore it or just observe it, the ap will likely end.   Other vibrations it is good to observe it.  That is from my experiences. 

I have used hypnosis CDs.  I think they are very good.  Listening to the CD makes me feel very relaxed and I usually end up falling asleep.  If I listen to it early in the day I usually do not fall asleep but I do not ap either.  I still think they are worthwhile.  It is getting you used to relaxing and conditioning yourself to ap.  I read two hypnosis books that says most people can be hypnotised.  However, only a very few people can be hypnotised to be able to go into their past lives.  I think it would be the same as for ap.  If you are dedicated and keep listening to the CD most nights/days of the week I think you will end up aping.  It may take a long time to achieve.  I was meditating most days for a long time and I started to ap but unfortunately I stopped doing it  because my legs were starting to hurt.  I now take magnesium tablets so I do not have that problem.  I can ap in the mornings but my goal is to ap when I want to. 

When you can see with your eyes open, you can spiritually get out of your body.  The first time it happened, I thought what do I do?  I thought get out of my body and that is what I did. 

I find if I listen to a relaxing CD, it makes me feel very relaxed.  The only problem is you could fall asleep as it is very relaxing.  You could listen to a relaxing CD for a while and then not listen to anything.  In time you should get used to relaxing by yourself.

Hi all, I have noticed that it is very important that I notice my physical.  This morning my eyes were closed and I seemed to be seeing things.  It is hard to remember exactly what I saw.  I know it was not landscape, people, buildings, animals, colours etc.  I know I did not see much but what I was seeing was different.  Perhaps it is what you call phasing.  I thought I feel different and I am seeing things differently so I am going to spiritually get out of my body.  I did get out spiritually.  I love doing that.  It makes me feel like I am physically out of my body but I am spiritually out.  I flew down the stairs of my home and through the door.  Unfortunately I went back into my body again.  I think it is happening because I have lost confidence and it is becoming a habit.  I never had that problem before.  I used to be able to stay out for a while.  I am now saying to myself I can stay out in the astral for a long time.

I did n0t realise it but I use affirmati0ns and it is very effective.  I have said t0 myself many times, I can easily ap which I can.  I als0 say t0 myself c0ncentrate and ap.  I stay aware with0ut falling asleep.   I keep saying it t0 myself and it w0rks.  I have started saying I can easily get deeply relaxed and I will slip 0ut 0f my b0dy.  My g0al is t0 be able t0 ap whenever I want t0 instead 0f early h0urs 0f the m0rning.   I read in a c0uple 0f hypn0sis b00ks that m0st pe0ple can be hypn0tised.  There is 0nly a few pe0ple that can get deeply relaxed.  Th0se pe0ple can g0 int0 their past lives.  M0st pe0ple cann0t get deeply relaxed s0 that explains why it can be hard t0 ap.
My keyb0ard letter 0 is n0t w0rking s0 I have t0 use the number 0.

There are different ways in which ap can work.  It does not have to be only one way.  I have ap using my method.  I suggest you experiment and see what works best for you.

That is right, images do not last.  It is very short.  That is why you  have to get out of your body when you see the images.  If you do not, you will miss the opportunity to ap.
