Meditating with your astral/etheric body while in an OBE? + Phys healing in OBE?

[LoLmart]

Title says it all... Is it possible? Have you done it? Do you know anyone who has done it and what are the results. I know that when you are out of body you have to be active and do things or else you will fall asleep or just lose awareness so I wonder if sitting and meditating in your astral body would make you fall asleep or have a positive effect...

Another question - I have been sick since the start of 2012 and I thought to myself if it is possible to heal myself somehow during an Out Of Body Experience. Maybe I have to perform something on my physical body while out of it but that might zap me back into it because I would be close to it and thinking about it... Or maybe I can heal my astral body and that will transfer to my physical body once I return to it? Or maybe I can project my own self in front of me and perform the healing but that might also zap me into my physical body... What are your thoughts, Pulsers?

Let me ask you this... when *YOU* are meditating, what do you think is doing the meditating?

Meditation isn't a physical body thing... you're actually encouraged to forget entirely that this physical reality exists while meditating.  To push it away.

So, with that said... if meditation isn't a "physical" thing, can you answer your question now?

As for healing yourself... you can do that right this very second.  You don't need to project in order to effect change within yourself.

When one is meditating in the everyday world he is combining the physical matter and the energy into one whole system. It's like saying that driving a car in the astral is the same as driving a car in the physical reality. It's similar but not the same. Now, of course, the physical is still energy but it is a much slower vibration. When I meditate in everyday reality I cannot do the lotus asana and in my astral body I will be able to do it since my body won't restrict me of doing it. The lotus posture will allow my electromagnetic energy to travel through certain pathways that would otherwise be unaccessible.

My thoughts manifest almost instantly and I don't have the filter called brain. I don't need to slow my brainwaves in order to access different frequencies. I am already there in the astral. That's why I say that meditating in the astral is different than in the physical reality, just like everything else is. The interaction between my mind and the Universe is much stronger and quicker in the astral. And that is the reason I also asked about healing from the astral. The thoughts and projection of healing frequencies and techniques would be much quicker and effective, at least in theory. So has anyone actually tried to meditate in their astral bodies while in the astral realms and what's the result?

Yes I tried. I also tried this because I am always too hectic, thinking I have not enough time, so I tried to 'slow down' everything. I would not call it meditation though. But I tried to 'rest' in my area (e.g. a garden) and just 'stabilise' it by watching / observing my environment in a calm mode, and not doing any thinking, just taking it all in. So far it did not work. The astral seems a hectic place, every time I either waned or sth else happened. It did not 'freeze' or become stabilised as I had hoped for. But I believe it is indeed a very good exercise for gaining mental strength and might help to develop more skills in the astral. I will certainly try again.

 When I first began to consciously AP, I created my "safe zone". I go there and just relax. It is a beautiful beach scene, the waves are gently hitting the shore and I have a very comfortable beach chair that I am witnessing this all in. I can see 360 degrees from this chair, so I don't always need to stand up and explore. I go to this area quite a bit to get rid of my Physical pain for the time being. Unfortunately when I return, it is still there, although not as severe as it was before my Astral visit.
I have also had an experience where it was like I was a child in the a classroom. The teacher was much bigger than us. All of the other students were Adults, but the same size as me. I can see this was supposed to be symbolizing a Kindergarten classroom. The teacher brought us to a corner of the room for story time. There she told us to close our eyes and all of a sudden I was Phasing/APing again. I found myself in the world that she was describing in her book. It was surreal. I knew that I was Phasing, but I was also Phasing this entire experience to begin with. It was a Astral Projection inside of another Astral Projection and both of them had full vivid visuals, plus memory recall.
Here is past thread describing the experience: http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/welcome_to_astral_projection_experiences/astral_school-t34301.30.html
So, I don't see why you couldn't meditate there, since thought = action. Just create your focused intent and have at it! 
Good Luck and Safe Travels!
