ASTRAL TRAVEL:

ASTRAL TRAVEL:

According to many traditions, "Astral travel" is the ability to move about outside one's body, or to other dimensions. Also known as OBE, or out of body experience. Areas beyond the physical world are known as the Astral Plane.

Astral travel has nothing to do with religion or magic.

It really requires no paraphernalia or rituals of any type.

In many ways astral travel is a controlled experiment.

Astral travel is often known as out-of-body experience. It is the conscious separation of the astral body from the physical body.

This results in an altered state of consciousness. There are a large amount of techniques that can be used to achieve this including meditation, trance and imagination techniques.

A large amount of people who experience astral travel report that the experience happened from a vantage point such as high in the sky looking down.

Astral travel has also been reported by some people who have had a near death experience. Some people who have had this type of experience have reported watching their operation and recalling conversations among hospital staff.

The astral body is often reported as being joined to the physical body by a silver cord - an etheric umbilical cord. Some people believe that if the cord breaks while in astral travel you will not be able to return to the physical body.

Tips on How to Astral Travel:

All that is needed is for you to focus on your breathing. When you breathe in, notice it. Notice how the air feels on the tips of your nostrils ... and then again, when you breathe out. It's important that this be done during an activity .. at work, shopping, daily activities, etc. .... not in isolation. Do not train your breathing. Just let it flow and watch it ... then start to focus on the gap between breaths. After a while, you'll begin to notice a certain distancing effect .... almost as if your own activities and the things around you are a drama that you're watching. You're not really a part of it, although you are acting through the part. It produces a sense of separateness, that is similar to the point in time right before an OBE occurs. I like this technique because it's very simple to do, and it isn't a solitary technique ... it's meant to be attempted at various times throughout the day. It also helped me learn to passively watch my mind's memories before falling asleep (like "watching" my daily activities), while keeping another portion of my attention awake and aware enough to successfully achieve an OBE

Using this method, however, will safeguard your trip, because a spiritual traveler will come and guide you. Make sure that you have twenty minutes undisturbed. Lie down, sit in a good chair, and close your eyes. Take a few deep breath, to make sure you are breathing calmly, and that your heart beat at a relaxed pace. Now, concentrate on your third eye, just above your nose, between your eyes. Take a deep breath, and while breating our, sofly sing Huuuuuuuuu. It`s sung like the man`s name, Hugh . Sing as long as you feel comfortable with each breath, but don`t run out of breath. Be relaxed. Sing this for a ten to fifteen minutes, then sit quitet, and look in a relaxed manner for the light in the third eye. Do this EVERY day, until one day, something happens. This ensure you that you are getting some soul travel experience, and not astral, which is both limited, and not so secure. You may get your first obe in the Dream state, and the man that comes to guide you, may be invisible at first, but he will be working for your benefit, with your first Hu.

GETTING BACK IN:

Getting back in after Astral Travel is as simple as just Willing yourself back in.

Also you will find that any occurance such as a strange noise, wind or light will take you straight back in.

There is no evidence to suggest you will not be able to get back in, get taken over, not find your body or any other such thing.

Getting back in is simple and straight forward.

SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE:

During experiments on astral travel volunteers who were able to leave their body were wired up to an Electroencephalograph machine.

The EEG instruments are monitered by electrodes placed on the volunteers scalp. These electrodes record the electrical potential of the celebrial cortyex.

The following results were recorded :

Alpha waves decrease.

Betta waves increase, indicting the volunteer is awake.

Electrodermal activity falls.

Respiration rate increases.

REM is absent.

No Theta or Delta waves.

The tests show something is happening, but not exactly what that is.

Again, it is wise to make your own decision in order to try Astral Travel. It is not for everyone and you need to be informed as to all of the facts before deciding to do it.
