   Hi Tvos,

           Thank you for the kind words.



           [Quote from Tvos]

           Even after projecting so many times, I have mentioned this on radio shows that you need to heal first the physical before setting out and connecting to your loved in the spiritual.

          Hmmm.  I would have to say that seeing your deceased loved ones could be part of the healing process in some cases. My experience certainly helped me in the healing process. There are probably more people who would find these experiences very uplifting and healing rather than being plummeted into more grief or depression imo. That is not to say that what you said was incorrect my friend. Some people probably do need time to heal before contact with a deceased loved one. So it really depends on the individual. And what he/she is ready for imo.

       Greetings,

                 I originally posted this event in 'Welcome to Astral Experiences'. This event probably falls into the category of Psychic Experience because it was my ability to become psychically aware that allowed me to experience this. Other family members don't seem share the same ability, and to my understanding have not had an experience with my Dad. 
         
                My Dad passed away Jan 12th of 2009. The next morning he paid me a visit. Now before I proceed I must explain that I have had quite a few psychic experiences in what I have heard called 'the twilight state'. That is the state where you can be asleep and then suddenly become super aware. All dream material is gone and it is just you and this quiet void. I needed to explain this before I proceeded with the story. So now I will proceed.

On Jan 13th of 2009 at around 9:30am I suddenly went from the sleep mode to the 'twilight state'. I heard my Dad say my name and then he proceeded to lie down and make contact with me. He was pressed against me, hugging me, and he had his hand on my shoulder (I was asleep on my stomach). He then told me that he loved me. I told him that I loved him too. I reached back with my hand and could feel the top of my Father's head and his hair. This of course was overwhelming and the experience ended.

Out of all the experiences that I have had (and I have had a few). This experience will always top the rest. I hope that when the time comes and your loved ones pass, that you are fortunate enough to have this experience also. It changes you.

Warm Regards

Greetings,

I was thinking on purchasing a FIR Infrared Sauna and came across some negative information on curezone.com in regards to it having an effect on your subtle energy bodies. I have heard nothing but good things about FIR Infrared Saunas and am not stating that I agree with what the forum member posted.

I don't even give the link because I simply don't have any supporting data to back up these negative statements. I thought that I should address the forum members who use FIR Infrared Saunas with hopes on getting more information (good or bad). The main question is: Has your ability to have obe's been effected by it's use?

I have been on a 'hot streak' lately (in regards to having obe's) and certainly don't want to purchase a device that is going to effect my ability to have them (or slow things down).


Regards

    Greetings,

              Is it possible for negative energy (in your home) or negative entities (being mischievous) to hold you back from a projection attempt. Thanx.

Greetings,

I read on the net that in some people the pineal gland begins to calcify as young as 6yrs of age. It is very common in adults. As most of you are already aware of, the pineal is probably one of the most important glands as far as OBE's, LD's and psychic development are concerned. So you certainly want it 'in the pink' of health so to speak.

Calcification of the pineal gland is so prevalant in adults that it really got me to thinking. It seems that some people at a certain age see a decline in LD's and OBE's. Is there a connection? I have already read about how testosterone increase seems to lead to more LD's. So there appears to be a hormonal connection at least, perhaps.

But wait. We also produce less melatonin as we age. Melatonin is produced by the pineal gland. People who increase melatonin have reported more vivid dreams, and more lucid dreams. I have noticed an increase in OBE's myself with dietary means alone (to increase melatonin). So, anyway, I have been searching the net trying to find ways of decalcifying the pineal gland.

This is what I have found so far. Turmeric, frankencense and oral chelation therapy are said to aid in the decalcification of the pineal gland. I am sure the headstand or other inversion type exercises would'nt hurt either. I only post this because this information might benefit certain people who seem to be getting nowhere having tryed everthing.

Anyway, I will post other means of decalcification when they are made available to me.

Regards

My stereo has different sound effects, pop,rock,stadium,classic etc (and off). When listening to boxed nirvana should effects be off or does it matter?

Look out for my PM Wolfynix. Give me a reply once you have recieved it. Good luck.

Thank you both for your advice. I will try the roll out method the next time I catch myself out-of-body while lying on my left. I will also consider my thoughts in my practices and remain positive and objective and hopefully not creat obstacles for myself. By the way. Can crystal bowl singing music clear energy blockages in the body? Thanx again.

Does anyone else have trouble with separating while lying on your left side? I can however separate while lying on my right side. I seem to be able to raise up at least and see my surroundings but remain attached to the physical for some odd reason while sleeping on my left side. Any suggestions?

I read William Bulhman's book on AP. He had some pretty useful information in regards to the vibrations. The key is waking up but not moving your physical body in the process. You then search your body for any tingly or odd feelings along the length of your spine up to the nape of your neck. The idea is to hone in on that feeling and intensify it using your will or desire to do so. Then once the vibrations began and reach a certain intensity you can make your separation attempt. Sitting up works great for me. I have had many successful OBE's using this method alone. I don't do any energy work however. And I do meditate from time to time. In regards to one's mindset I would say that I don't have one. All I do is remain relaxed and objective(maybe that is considered a mindset ). Bear in mind though that everyone is different and might not get the same results as myself using this method. Stay on course with your meditation Star. Maybe an OBE is right around the corner. Good luck

Hi,

         I have experienced the vibrations during the night and have had many successful OBE's doing so. Some people do experience the vibrations before making there exit out of the body. But everybody is different. If you experienced the vibrations during meditation that is great. But there are quite a few pre-obe symptoms. It is best to be objective and not look for anything but just let the experience happen. The fact that you felt the vibrations during meditation could be an indication that you are indeed achieving the ideal relaxed state. If they do come again during meditation use your mind to increase the intensity of the vibes and just get up and walk away from your physical body. I only share this with you in case you do get the vibes again during meditation. Also bear in mind that this worked for me and does not necessarily mean that you will automatically have the same results as I. A lot of factors can prevent successful OBE attempts. Fear being one of them. Good luck.[/quote][/i]

Greetings all,

I should began by stating that in Robert Bruces book he mentions that wearing jewelry can effect your projections. I felt that I should share this information with you all. It is not my personal belief however. He says that HE has been effected and OTHERS have also. So if anybody has had trouble projecting there could be the remote possibility that your jewelry is causing a problem. But please. If anyone wears jewelry and is not effected whatsoever, please share your experience(s). Also please let everyone know what kind of jewelry you wear. I am really curious about this because I just ordered a vibrating wrist watch for the purpose of assisting me in my projections. I got the news about RB from my brother AFTER I ordered the watch [!][]. Thank you in advance for any responses and my warm regards to all.

Hello all,

I feel very lucky when I read on these forums that so many people have trouble with leaving there body when they get the vibrations but here I am finding it very easy to leave my body when I get them. When I get the vibes I allow them to spread throughout my whole body(you can use your mind to help you with this). I have left my body at different intensities of the vibrations and ALWAYS end up in my bedroom from where I am projecting. The vibes DO (for me) have to be fairly strong for me to separate. Sometimes I hold on to them too long and end up projecting into a vivid LD. So the key for me is using my mind to let the vibes course throughout my body and also using my mind to increase the intensity to the correct level for me to separate. Something weird that I have noticed is that when I float out I seem to float up too quickly and end up projecting into a vivid LD. However, when I sit up and stand up I have no problems. I know I am in the real time zone because everything in my room looks the same. One time I saw a streak of light that was cast onto my bed. For some reason I did not ponder this. But on returning to my body I opened my eyes and saw a sliver of moonlight shining through my curtains onto my bed in the exact location of the light I saw when I was projecting. William Buhlman offers some good advice on the vibrations and his book is recommending reading. I actually owe his book to my success. Good luck to all and take care.

I have read a few books on AP but really like WB books. He talks about recognizing the vibrational state and how you can enhance it.
Well anyway I made up an affirmation in regards to the vibrations. A week or so went by and I had an OBE. What happened is that I woke up in the middle of the night but remained perfectly still. I then did as the book instructed and began searching my body for any tingling feelings, starting with the back of my neck and then my spine. Man I'm tellin' ya!. I got the vibrations alright, starting with a tingly feeling in my back (about the center of spine)and then getting stronger when I honed in on the feeling. Before long I had waves of vibrations coursing through my body with an electric like humm accompanying them. When I floated up and out I went through the ceiling (going through water-don't ask me why [])and ended up in a lucid dream! So I exited the LD and began the process all over again with the vibes coming rather quickly this time for some reason. But again I ended up in a LD when I floated up. This happened one more time but I broke the chain of events by moving my physical body by accident. However the next day I tryed something different when I got the vibes. Instead of floating up I just sat up in bed and stood up. It felt as if I was standing up in the physical. The lighting was a little different(was night), but I could see very well and saw that I was in my bedroom. Everything looked exactly the same. I was amazed. I walked over to my bedroom door and reached out to touch it. My hand went right through it. This also amazed me. I walked out into the hallway and walked over to my brothers bedroom and paused outside his door(which was closed). My brother usually plays his violin in his bedroom and when I for some reason had that brief thought a violin began playing just as clear as a bell from out of nowwhere. I knew my brother was not home this night and that my mind was creating this and the playing abruptly stopped. I then knew I had to watch my thinking because you apparently can create what your mind is briefly thinking at times. I then walked through his bedroom door into his bedroom. I looked around his room and checked out some of the objects in it. On closer observation they seemed like holographic images. I found that a little weird(is that normal?)I then faced his bedroom window and I quess I lost my concentration because my movement became very stiff and could not be corrected by saying 'clarity now', so I ended up back in my body with this weird tingling that gradually subsided. I was very happy that I had this experience and knew I would always sit up and stand up from here on out. Try this instead of floating up and out. You might find it a lot more grounding than floating up and out. I hope my story did not bore you too much []. Take care all.

Kevin

  Thank you all for your advice. I do have a question however on how one performs the Brim Triangle Method.

Hello everyone. Has anybody ever performed Robert Monroes OBE technique? I am confused about what exactly does he mean by draw an imaginary line parallel to your body etc, etc. I purposefully left out some content to shorten the message. I would just like a more simplified explanation of his OBE technique. Thank you.

Hi Ady,

I have never had the paralysis (ie, when you are not able to move any part of your body). I seem to always get the vibes when I happen to get lucky enough to wake up during the night. The vibes for ME feel sort of like an electric, vibrating current that pulses through my body. Being heard as well as felt. Sounding sort of like a humming or buzzing noise. The experience is sort of hard to describe. You have nothing to fear though. Fear is (in my opinion) one of the greatest detriments. I know for many this is easier said than done, but when you are able to control your fear(s), doors start to open. Sorry I was unable to be clearer on the description of the vibes. Warm regards.

                         Kevin

Hi Ady,

Generally your body will experience the vibrations or paralysis prior to a projection. However if you are fearful and get tensed up, this could prevent you from making an exit out of your body. Relaxation is the key. When you get the vibes or paralysis try to remain calm and allow the vibrations to spread over your whole body. Then try sitting up or floating out. If you still have a problem, try to increase the intensity of your vibes by wishing it so. But you must remain calm. With practice it will happen. Once you are out your body you are free to explore. Getting back in is not a problem. Just think about being back in your body. The paralysis will not prevent you from returning to your body. Also try not to move too soon. You must wait until the vibes are fairly strong before attempting an exit. Good Luck Ady.

Hi Manix,

You just made my day! []

A message for MajorTom.

I was prepared to order the watch and then my brother told me that in Robert Bruces book he mentions that jewelry can be a problem in making an exit. Please let me know how it goes when you recieve yours. I like your idea on using a watch because the tech. that I seem to be fairly successful at is waking up in the night. Remaining still. And then searching for the vibes. The vibra 3 would be great at waking you up without being too physically jarring(noisy[]). Warm regards.

A message for Astral Boy.

Thank you very much for your info in regards to getting the bwgext. without having to pay money. But could you please do me a favor and go into a little more detail for 'computor illiterate morons' like me []. Thank you in advance if you do respond to this message. Warm regards.

Hi Ady,

      There could be a few reasons why you were unable to project. #1-The body not being completely relaxed. #2-Fear,which can create a certain amount of tension. #3-Not letting the vibes spread throughout your whole body. And sometimes trying too hard can actually be a detriment. Now as far as the sick,dizzy feeling that you felt. Possibly you awoke too fast or abrupt and your astral body was out of sync with the physical(it happens). One way to get rid of this feeling is to go back to sleep again for a brief period. This normally realigns everthing on awakening. Don't worry Ady. This is a very common occurance and never does any lasting harm to body. Good luck.

    Kevin

In response to Ady's question.

I have only projected at night between the hours of 1 and 3 am. I generally just wake up and don't move my body in the process (this takes some practice).But referring to the vibes disturbing my relaxation I would say that so far using this night time method to project I have not had that problem. If you are fearful of the vibes when they occur then there is a chance that this could effect your relaxation. I find the vibes fun when they occur because I know that there is a chance that I can separate from my body. Good luck Ady.

I was listening to Coast To Coast about 5 or 6 years ago and heard Albert Taylor say that, in his opinion, there was NO connection between sleep-walking and astral projection, since the body had to be perfectly still and relaxed to accomplish an OBE. Sleep-walking would therefore be anathema to going out of body.
