Dear folks,

this book is said to be an occult classic in Astral literature and as such, I assume packed full with dense information not to be found in the usual new age books on the subject. I tried my best finding an electronic version of it on the internet, yet there appears to be none. There is an ebay seller in a country adjacent to mine, giving away used versions of this book for little money.

If I were to buy this book, I would be able to make a complete scan of it and put it online as an ebook, provided there is a general interest.

I have it, it's not worth the money. (In my opinion naturally)

And dense is right (i mean that in the most sarcastic way possible).  It's a lot of old theory and not a lot of practical knowledge.

It is a classic, and it's a cool read, but I think it's a book that someone should read after they've been projecting for a while.  It's really heavy in occult jargon or more appropriately, Muldoon Jargon. 

My boss gave it to me because he knew I was interested in AP.  He had a really old copy that he hadn't read in years.  He said his was given to him by a producer on a TV show that he used to be on (Haunting Evidence) who asked him if it was a legit book (because my boss is a psychic medium) and he said it was legit but "old".  By that he says he meant that it was "out-dated" or rather steeped in "superstition".  It's not superstitious like we think of superstition necessarily (like don't mess with your cord cause you'll die), but a lot of occult tradition.

I guess it's still cool to have on the bookshelf.
be awesome.

I should also say that at the time when I read it I was struggling to project for the first time and really just wanted a good method, I wasn't interested in Astral Theory, which this book has a lot of.

After I confessed to my mom (as a youngster) and 'proved' it (that is, confirmed things I had seen) when I was young, it was the first book about AP that we got and I read.  I enjoyed the read, didn't really apply to my experiences (since at the time most of my OBEs were RTZ wanderings around my room and neighborhood) and it offered (at least, at the time) no instruction towards reaching the goal- I just found it interesting, but not helpful.  Nice read, simply for the fun of it.

I read it a while back, it was interesting to read his experiences. Other than that I can't remember any kind of information that a person new to projections could use. Astral Dynamics is a good book for beginners to read, and Journeys out of the body is also a great book for people new to projections to read. Journeys is not a book that is heavy in instructions or methods, but it is pretty detailed when it comes to showing a person what to expect in terms of the obe state and precursors. Oliver Fox' book is a great book to read as well, although a very quick read (very small book) think I still have that one laying around.

Dear personalreality,

would it be possible for you or someone you know to make a complete scan of it or would you be willing to send it?

I'd really like to see this book online eventually.

I've already been expecting Projection of the Astral Body to be a technical, not an instructional book.

I wonder though, what exactly would be outdated and especially who set the the new standards for knowledge.
I see that a lot of new books are based on a lot of old occult teachings after all.


I've just seen a few of the customer reviews about this book on amazon, the ratings generally pretty high and some people say, the techniques given in this book are working well for them.

Dear T.L. ,

yes I believe we all love Astral Dynamics,

curious I find now while reading over occult literature is that a lot of his terms, Robert Bruce has apparently adopted from occult literature.

I have it in digital media in spanish, if you're interested just let me know (perhaps you could translate it into english through some website, but I don't know how that would turn out).

Just pm me if you want it  :-)

Dear horaciocs,

thanks but those translations never turn out well. I'm looking for either english or german versions.
