I think I know why I never manage to astral project through meditation. I always become surprised and wake up once I see hypnagogic imagery. Do any of you know how to get pass this?
You just have to do it enough that whatever you see has no effect on you any more.
Just like getting desensitized to violence on TV by watching it over and over. (except hypnogogics aren't usually violent :-))
Yes I get that too. I was taught to focus within and go deeper to get past it. What your getting is random images. These can also be focused and interacted with. but It's much more interesting and meaningful when you go past that.
Hi
soarin + 1 karma for your response.. If you do something in life over and over gain, eventually its just going to happen.
DarkHorizon, can you describe in some detail what Hypnagogia you are experiencing? The term covers a pretty broad range of visuals/audios/sensations.
Like soarin and BFP have said, you have to experience it enough times in order to move deep enough to move past it to the next stage, but if we can have a little more specificity we might be in a better position to suggest what you should next look for.
