trance trouble

[Cackle]

hey, I'm still a bit rusty on the whole trance state thing

can you actually AP from the trance state?

and how do i even get into trance? I've heard it is very easy but i just cant do it...

Well, basically you have to lie or sit in a position that is most comfortable to you and relax your body as much as possible, in order to be able not to think of any part of it, or your daily problems, any more. You can listen to meditative music, light up some candles for the atmosphere.. Some like chanting mantras, or repeating them in thoughts - my favourite is saying "Ommm" over and over again.

And, you have to think about relaxing as little as possible - just let it happen. In the meantime, you must keep your mind alert.

It is possible to AP from trance state, but, as far as I know, it is more difficult than to project from dreams. However, not impossible!

I hope this helps.

In his book Astral Dynamics Robert states that the easiest way to project is in when you have a deep level of physical relaxation and your mind is held in a trance state. As far as obtaining a trance state he suggests that while you are relaxing you generate and internal 'sense' of falling. And as far as mantras go they are normally used to help keep your mind focused and alert so anything would work really. But definitely keep it simple.

Hope that helps...
