Astral Projection Part 1
Astral projection (also known as astral travelling and the out of body experience or OBE) is a subject that has fascinated millions of people throughout the ages. In this new six part series I will present all the information you need about astral projection to not only understand the subject but experience astral projection for yourself.
Scientists and metaphysicians alike have studied the subject of astral projection at length, and whilst one single, absolute conclusion has not yet been reached about the nature of the phenomenon, one thing has become clear – the best way to study astral projection seriously is to experience it yourself. From that vantage point you can then explore the non-physical world and draw your own conclusions based on your first-hand discoveries.
Astral projection is the art (some might say the science) of projecting your consciousness out of your physical body and exploring the universe in a purely non-physical state. In this state, you are not bound by any of the laws which govern the physical plane, such as gravity or density, and this makes it possible to experience flight or walking through “solid” matter. Even better, astral projection allows one to explore other “planes” of existence which are beyond our physical perception. It is on these planes that an individual can learn a great many things about himself and the universe.
One questions which many people ask when discussing astral projection is the possibility of danger. Most people wonder if projecting the astral body can be harmful, either physically or emotionally.
The vast majority of experienced projectors would say that any danger you face is created purely by your own fears. The door to the astral plane is the human imagination, and what you will find on the astral planes will be determined by how you perceive things in your normal waking life.
For example, if you are of a very nervous disposition and your whole waking life is filled with fear, then you may well find astral projection to be frightening just as nightmares are frightening. By facing up to your fears, however, you can liberate yourself from them forever, and so it could be said that projecting your consciousness into the astral plane is a good thing even if you are normally fearful.
As for the question of whether or not astral projection can be physically damaging, the accepted consensus would seem to be that it is not. The vast majority of seasoned projectors agree that astral projecting is something we all do at night when we sleep, so if this is true then the act itself is perfectly natural.
My belief is that astral projection is safe for the average person, but if you are fearful even of the idea of projecting your consciousness out of your body, spend a few weeks analysing and conquering your fears before you begin thinking about actually experiencing non-physical reality for yourself.
