Living another life for a number of years

[Harliquin]

In one book i read recently, i cant think of the name right now, the author refers to a conscious astral visit/obe where by he simply found a parralell life he was living somewhere else. He then goes on to explain at finding out about it, he then went to live there permanantly for 6 or 7 years, living the life as he would this one, before returning here at pretty much the same time he left. No time seemed to have pasted in this lifetime.

I found this a little odd to hear about, as it bears no relation to the limited energy, silver cord theory.

Has anyone else heard of this. I seem to be able to relate to it, although this lifetime i havent doen that!

Hi,

Sounds very similar to one of Robert Peterson's accounts in one of his e books.
http://www.robertpeterson.org/

Peterson's books and web "class notes" have been a source of encouragement and inspiration to me.
In terms of modern spiritualism, I believe that Peterson's methods and results, while being very advanced, are still traditional in regard to the idea of OBE, or going out and projecting.

Personally, I'm thinking more on the lines of the concept of Phasing along a single consciousness continuum, as described by Frank Kepple in http://www.astralpulse.com/frankkepple.html

Yes that was the quote i was refering to actually, from peters book. Its a little odd, not totally unbelievable, but strange when considering the usual concepts of how all this works.

Reading this post brought back an experience I once had as a teenager. My friends and me used to make each other faint by deep breathing for a while and then having someone bearhug their chest. On one of these occasions I had the experience of living somewhere else for what seemed like a long time. It was almost as if I lived a parallel life for weeks with people who seemed completely familliar to me. Waking from this was really weird as it seemed like my reality, until I remembered who I was.
I was actually unconscious for about twenty seconds.
Sounds crazy I know, but it happened.

PS. Please don't try this , it can be dangerous...

Sounds like time travel into the the future with ap(?) I read that when you time travel ahead, it seems longer but the time here is only a short while, like hours in the future can be seconds here, when you go into the past, you're there for a little while and it's been hours here. Maybe it's the other way around for future being long and past being short, can't remember.

That's intruiging djvtech. I hadn't considered that possibility.

I read about a parallel world in a book Journeys out of the body, by Robert Allan Monroe, which he calls Locale 2, and he too spent some significant time there in the parallel world through the body of someone else he met there. Also explained how incidentally he entered the world, and later being able to repeat the experience by will. In the book he also explains his parallel world in a great detail, quite similar to ours yet technologically very different. Socially different by a certain degree as well, for example a public transit over there is free of charge. It was an interesting read.

I would like to hear what book you were reading about the parallel world, or at least who is the author of the book. I find the topic very interesting.

This is a neat topic!

first off for Nickspry: You stated:
""by deep breathing for a while and then having someone bearhug their chest.""

and your description of what you experienced afterwards... what you were doing in a very strange, and yes, Dangerous way, was raising your kundalini, and then experienced partial phases of 'the ramifications of raised kundalini: 'enlightenment'.  That is why kundalini (the practice of) can be very dangerous to both those who are not ready physically nor spiritually for the experience. 

Harliquin,
The Monroe Institute (TMI) which is Bob Monroe's creation, has a program (actually more than one) that does touch on parallel lives, which are also/can be termed as "aspects of self".  My personal experience, (blew me away the first time!) I 'met' one of my 'current' selves living a lifestyle that I thought was totally 180 degrees from 'who' I am in this life. In other words, I could Not imagine living 'her' life ( and yes, though she was incredibly successful, she was miserable and broken hearted). But my lesson was to recover a part of myself that was keeping me from reaching a certain goal, and this "other me" and her (the other me) lifestyle was the block I needed to discover and hence, "own the experience" as my own and thus not allow it to be a blocking agent anymore.

Actually, we have countless parallel lives once you understand the dynamics and simplicity of the works And you have access to each and every one of them if you so choose. Phasing and splitting seems to be the best way - at least for me, it is.

Happy trails,

Hard to imagine dimensions above the 4 as we are used to...   you know space/time..... ever thought about the time part being 3D, aswell? I tend to think that our 3D world moves along 3 time-dimentions and that that all those 3 3D dimensions as a whole moves along another 3Ds..... and so on....  where they end I don't know, but I'm sure as hell that the world's end is further and more intertwined then we think.

Moving consciousness from one place to another is obviously possible, since we are after all on this site. Your story is although most significant.

So anyone got anymore thoughts on this possibility?

I am an older guy now and do not in any way condone this practice but we also did basically the breathing thing as young teenagers. We added a couple steps which I will not get into that probably heightened the experience. You can actually die doing this
After a few times each we would all tell of the experiences. Believe me when I tell you NOT ANY GOOD AT ALL. 2 of my buds were never psychologically the same. Trust me this is dangerous and do not ever attempt it

Very interesting Vibra!
Of course I now want to know about those extra "ingredients" you added, but I'm sure (as an elder statesman) you're not going to tell me. Not that I'd use them anyway of course.
I like the kundalini concept - had never considered that, but it makes sense....
