Yep.
In the spiritual quest yuo never ever get what you want. Only what you need.
Thus wanting a trance, wanting to project, wanting to evolve never gets you there.
A hippie once said "you can't rush karma, man"
In other words, when you stop being dependent on things you want and get on with things you have you'll suddenly find you have the things you wanted. In one way or another.

Greetings rodentmouse,
Yes, I could not agree more.
Meditation is a core skill, and one that is of immense value to almost every aspect of progression along the path. Even 30 minutes each day is of great benefit, but must be every day.
We need to define "meditation", and my defintion would be total emptiness of the mind allowing impressions from the higher/inner spheres to filter though. This can lead to trance, Astral sight, clairvoyance etc..
Other cornerstones are concentration and visualisation exercise.
Today I concentration exercises in the Astral Consciousness forum:

rodentmouse,
I totally agree with the importance of meditation to the spiritual path. The benefits of everyday meditation are both physical (i.e. lowers stress, calms the body) and spiritual as Adrian ably defined it.
Very best,
hello to the people :D
for anyone who is having trouble getting into trance or getting deeply relaxed, my advice would be to focus on being able to learn how to MEDITATE...
ever since ive begun to focus more on being able to do this than being able to leave my body, ive found it a lot SIMPLER getting into trance.
I also get the vibrations more frequently now..
i know Robert emphasises this is AD as a core skill, but i just thought id clarify the truth in it, hopefully to emphasise its importance...
its definatly helped me..
basically, if your longing to project, (but cant meditate or focus the mind) i think learning how to meditate should be your focus for the time being...
