One long post you won't regret reading -

We are told constantly that god and the devil are external force (outside of us) and the battle between good and evil is constantly perpetuated in society, the media and etc.
If God is everywhere and in everything then so is Satan. Essentially we are both internalized. Acceptance of your internal god and internal devil. Learn to have them coexist within you instead of battling all the time and learn to balance.
This gives a clear and more refined view of the saying "We are our own worst enemy." That which torments us is usually in our mind. Rage, fear, etc the negative states being that of devil & love, acceptance, etc being that of god.

There has been a number of studies done showing that scientifically negative emotions and thoughts or positive have an impact on physical matter. Now as for which one is or becomes dominant in your life...
"Which wolf will win?"
"The one you feed."

When people pray to god they are praying to their soul / energy body / astral body / spirit self / the unconscious self which is comprised of more godly essence than the physical body... and mentally knows your truest and deepest intentions.
I know this through research, practice and studies particularly out of body experience. Mentality when you are in your astral body is not that of your waking mind consciousness but your deeper self.... the unconscious, subconscious and maybe a small touch of the conscious mind.

Lets say before having an OBE i place intent on being in a game or something. When you actually do get out of body your intent changes though it is still you. It is your deeper intentions and wishes. For example perhaps when you are out you want to visit with a deceased loved one. The street fighter idea is scrapped and you go about doing that.

As for religions i believe everybody would be worshiping the same god if there was any truth. But instead when people of 1 culture discovered another they worshiped separate gods.
Sail across the seas...
Yup! More inconsistencies.
More exploring...
Everyone is blasphemous!

No matter... I believe now there is only 1 god and that the characters portrayed across religion are the interpretation of the founders of that religion.. Which would make religious wars completely senseless. Everybody fighting over the representation of god while god itself holds all the same values people do in those religions. "No, my imaginary friend is better!" "NO! mine is !" (The representations not god itself)

Most humans know in their heart the difference between right and wrong. Most religions embody those human teachings of the heart. Both the good and the bad. Remember thousands of years ago they were not as advanced as we are now. Imaginations were much stronger. Stories to them are like movies to us. It would not be hard to create a god and devil for all to worship, and hold close in their hearts as what's described is every aspect of the human being.
"This devil in a not so distant land feeds on fear, turns man mad, and blahblahblah" ... Spread the tale. People will encounter fear and madness and think it's the devil. More believe it and by proxy it changes their minds and the whole populace as the easy association spreads like wild fire.

" Pray to god and he shall save you, when miracles happen it is the work of god!"
Thousands of years ago they didn't have science or anything like that to disprove what they could not understand. Anything outside of their understanding was labeled as a miracle. And so it is an act of god. The word spreads fast. Love, happiness etc also associated with god.

Can you see how this all connects now?

Might be some typo's or w.e.

Religions, sacred geometry, spirituality, science, psychology etc all have it's place in here and connect flawlessly.

Not meant to attack a certain person views or religion at all just connecting years of research in an effort to have a greater understanding on this subject.

watched it, loved it. subtitled version. ^_^
thought some of you would enjoy this!
this type of astral projection show isn't focused on the bad ( like insidious )
sure it does have some moments like this as with every movie and show having to have some sort of conflict. (man vs man, man vs self, man vs nature)
but it is pretty awesome might even re-watch it soon 

Synopsis
In an isolated region of Kyushu lies the town of Suiten. Though seeming small and modest, Suiten is not a picturesque place for a vacation, unless it is from the "Unseen World". Taro, Makoto and Masayuki, three boys with traumatic pasts, learn to let their souls cross between the two parallel worlds. However, the Unseen World is no mere copy of the real Apparent World. The Unseen World is the home of ghosts, but changes are now allowing the souls of the dead to pass over into the Apparent World, with unpredictable effects. Follow the journey of Taro, Makoto and Masayuki, as they cross between the two worlds, trying to unravel a great mystery.

Hi, i'm having a hard time finding Astral binaural beats.
all i can find is frickin lucid dreaming ones....
Or astral ones however they are on youtube which is of absolutely no use to me.

i'm looking for some i can put on an ipod.

so if you know where i can find some let me know?
or if you know how to rip audio from a youtube vid through an addon or something that'll be great

Welcome, and good luck in your research!
you will find many, many, terms and techniques here. methods and beliefs.

Far too much emphasis on the physical. Time limit? If you are trying to do this with any restrictions it's not the best thing to do.
Ignore the physical as if it doesn't exist and never has. That's nearer the truth.
You are who you are as a point of conciousness in a sea of thoughts. Create a visualisation of a place away from your sleeping body.
Put yourself at that place and do your best to see it around you. Become part of it.
Add this to your list of things to do that work.
You can do it too. If you know the feel, this method gets you there in a second. No messing around with arms and legs. They dont really exist as such. No body to react with just a point of conciousness.
It took me 50 years to realise this one and I think Tom C does it too.

guess i should have explained more about the "time limit" what i meant was that there is a certain window of opportunity you have to get out of body.
got close yet again about 1 hour ago. reached a state of barely feeling my body, etc. visualized being a foot away from the ceiling raising my hands to touch it. rose up out of bed, but yet again in the physical. so damn frustrating.
but the feeling of being half energy body half physical remained.... i was awake and reading these posts, felt like my body could just float up out of this meat shell!!
so layed back down and did another attempt, yet it all went away...
but i shall put it on the list to try

Here's something I do on those occasions when my body just isn't 'in the mood' to make a conscious transition.  And by that I mean the trance just won't deepen to the point of transition.  Let yourself start falling asleep and just before you do, bring yourself back to the trance with a single thought and maybe a roll of your eyeballs.  Do this again and again and again.  If your're afraid of falling asleep, just keep the thought in the back of your mind that you are going to be OOB in a few minutes.  This thought will keep you too excited to go into a deep sleep.  This will probably deepen the trance enough for you to transition.  If at this point you are still struggling, then after about 10 or so rounds of slipping towards sleep and refocusing to the trance, allow yourself to finally go to sleep.  Chances are that your subconscious is so programmed for sleep, awake, sleep, awake, that you will wake back up in a few seconds on the 'other side,' lucid, and ready to go!  Many times when I do this and wake up in the NPR, I'm still laying in bed but it will be in some other bed in some other house! lol.  BTW, this is a good method for people that don't have very well developed visualization skills yet.  As you can see, no visualization involved.  It's important, I think to develop your visualization skills, but if you struggle with that like I do, at least this method will get you out there.  Good luck!

This!!!
thank you.
been focusing way to much on methods, visualizations, etc. mostly what ends up happening is my body just tightens up on attempts to float out lol.
on my 2nd OBE about 9 years ago... it was this that got me out. fell asleep listening to hemi-sync only to re-awake half way out of my body, sitting up in bed. "It's so blurry, why can't i see? x_x" *brings legs around to the side of the bed and rubs eyes* "i did it! out of body!".... still have yet to rediscover which hemi-sync track that was... (i absolutely have to use headphones. my apt building is effing terrible for noise can hear everything.) from what i recall it was just the tones, with some whoosing noises...

anyway back to the reply!
i guess my visualizations aren't strong enough as it would seem to work great for 15 seconds or so then get distracted very easily. but i think this method will work wonders. have a written book with affirmations and techniques, going to add this in with the others  hopefully soon i'll have a story for you guys


*edit* what i'm looking for is astral binaural beats XD not hemi-sync
anyone know wher ei can get some that aren't for lucid dreaming but for astral projection?

Noobs?

Generally that's not a term of endearment one uses. 

it's probably because i'm a big gamer and always have been lol.
on an old astral forum years back i would refer to myself as an astral noob.
quicker then saying new practitioner to astral travel, or new travelers.

hmmm... so whats astral boner called? jokes.
from reading some of those posts seems like it could be compared to sex on ecstasy. but without doing the drug itself.

and to find love more meaningful and deep then here? sounds pretty awesome. when i was very young had a very lucid dream (or perhaps an obe?)  where i was camping with some others and met this beautiful girl. absolutely mesmerized , long story short i took my eyes away for one second and a bear attacked. held her hand in the hospital balling my eyes out, as she past i woke up.
was depressed for weeks after that... the feeling was so strong.
  i was probably only about 5-8 yrs old but it was such a profound experience.
a good memory brought back to life by reading some of those posts

don't think astral sex is something noobs can do .
to much stimulation and your back in your body
ah well i'll add it anyway

Lets create a new era together!!
By doing the EXACT same thing we were doing prior to the shift. spending money when it doesn't NEED to be spent.
ho-ho!

Saw a video of obama being a direct facial match to some egyptian god. forgot who it was though.

Bam!

also, i think it's because of the repetitive beats.
most trance songs are generally up lifting, have that happy tone to it.
so lets say you put on a 12 min track. your brain listens to the same thing for the 3 minutes, then the build up happens, growing and growing, the repetition is broken for a moment increasing your receptiveness to suggestions later put in by the song.

i also think with music in general, which ever song you listen to if you listen to it with someone special at a good moment in your life, or perhaps just a good moment in your life the memories attached to that song are what make it so lovable.
you may not remember immediately but subconsciously it brings back the feeling you had on that day with or without that other person.

[i took note of the positions they were sleeping in and jumped back into my body at that point. went into the bedroom 1 person was in the same position as i saw in the astral ( a very awkward sprawled out one at that) while the other one was slightly shifted from laying on their back, to laying on their side.]

2nd OBE - Teen years
Validation? Sleeping position of people in the next room .

Fell asleep listening to hemi-sync with headphones on. awoke half an hour later, while separating from the body. Couldn't see anything so i put my feet on the ground beside the bed. rubbed my eyes and everything became clear. there was an entity resembling the cat ghost boy from the grudge. he stared at me and i stared back. at that point my body floated up, stomach facing the ceiling back facing the ground as i floated towards the bedroom beside mine. at that point my body became a little more loose and stood suspended in the air. the was a light past the corner of the room, but just this little area was lit up. i took note of the positions they were sleeping in and jumped back into my body at that point. went into the bedroom 1 person was in the same position as i saw in the astral ( a very awkward sprawled out one at that) while the other one was slightly shifted from laying on their back, to laying on their side.

so i guess you can say it half worked. lol  or perhaps one of the people shifted in the 10-20 seconds it took to get to their room.

Heya. did some attempts just recently and found a new twist on this method that might resonate with you

1st - the method.

When you reach the vibrational state, or any state of deep relaxation. Imagine a medium sized ball ( dodgeball, basketball, maybe a little larger if you want).

Toss up the ball and when you exhale, see it rise with your exhalation. Now when you inhale the ball will come back down from the ceiling close to your body, at this point when your near a full inhalation imagine your hands catch it. and again on the exhale toss that ball back up into the air.

Repeat this for about 5 - 10 minutes or until you feel you are ready for the next transition.  

here's where my spin comes in on this technique.
listen to the vibes, or feel your body and do some energy body techniques. after a few min go back to the technique above.

This time toss the ball up as you normally would but don't let go, imagine your body rising up with that ball when exhaling. feel yourself rise to the ceiling. see your arms, the ball, and your room.
when inhaling feel your energy body awareness fall into your physical body.  
this should cause your energy to resonate or you may feel waves or rocking when your energy body touches your physical.

Exhale, rise up with the ball.
Inhale, float down with the ball.
Exhale rise up with the ball
Inhale come down with the ball.

as i haven't had an OBE in over 3 years, this is the closest i have come so far from techniques.
Give it a shot!

----- I'm not sure but i think since you focus on the motion of tossing up the ball and visualize it coming down for 10 min or however long before hand, that part of the visualization is already strong so that when you add your body into the equation  it sort of tricks your mind. in a good way though, and a way we need.
just my opinion though

I'm starting to find that after 1 - 2 attempts it gets a little bit closer to leaving the physical body.... 1-2 more attempts  then a little bit more.... inch by inch..... closer and closer...
maybe after a couple weeks of serious effort it can be achieved!

Hi welcome to the astral pulse!
great choice on your studies here, you can research for months and still have tons of more knowledge to absorb.
if you find your motivation is lacking ni the coming weeks, maybe you'll find that reading some experiences, or watching youtube videos of people telling their astral experiences will give you a big boost of motivation

Thanks for the welcome
and ya lol it's hard though when you are finally reaching the stages of seperation. lots comes to the fore front on what should be done... which technique, which method. visualizations, or something else. or to just let it flow all together n ignore techniques.
getting there though ^_^  made some more progress tonight!

A lot of his knowledge has also been simplified by many other people as well.... i guess in the end what matters from his books are the concepts and strategies. the techniques and methods. 
there are also some videos on youtube of him explaining his experiences and everything, good watch.
and congrats again on your recent experience. just did a few attempts and got very close this time.

Projection attempt 3 of today.

began with guided meditation laying in a chair that reclines
back. it seemed like the right side of my body got more comfortable 1st, while the left was about
5 min behind it.i could feel my conscious start to shift, and after
a while of visualization could feel my right arm (from elbow down) start to very very slowly rise up.
at this point the view on my eye lids was no longer black, everything just immediately
became blueish with a bit of green, all one solid color though. it also felt like my eyes were trying to open
...i felt them blink a couple of times but then they remained shut and could still only see the blueish green.
the rest of my body could barely be felt but feeling was still slightly there.
at this point i tried to imagine my room, but nothing took shape.
after a few min of that i tried picturing a magnet above my body coming closer with each exhale
and farther with each inhale drawing my energy body out

i after about 15 min of visualizations nothing seemed to be working and i remembered that there was a  time limit so got out of the chair and looked back. tried jumping, to fly. but i was still in the physical.

after about 10 minutes of the guided meditation every single time i would inhale could feel my body rocking up and down (rocking up towards the skull, and down towards the feet)
at least 4 -6 pulses back and forth with each inhale..
is this normal?

after getting up from another failed attempt for about 3 minutes i still couldn't really tell, it feels like im in my energy body right now but also my physical.
like both are awakened, and kind of groggy. maybe my energy body is still a little active?

maybe i tried to get out to soon... should i have probably just continued with one of the methods and wait for my energy body to get sucked out by the magnet?

while or after you exit your body can you still hear the guided meditation?

Congrats!
but you should convince your wife that you need absolute silence and to not be disturbed no matter what.
tell her only disturb you if it is an emergency like the house in on fire or something.
tell her you are working very hard on it and the only way you can achieve it is by no interuptions
or w.e you see fit

Congratulations!
how long have you been training?
also this astral codex.... what program are you suppose to use for an .Epub or .Kindle file?
adobe doesn't seem to support it

you'll understand them one day

You can learn things in the astral and will retain that information when you come back to your body.
