Can I Have An Out Of Body Experience?
An out of body experience, also called an OBE, is a scientifically proven phenomenon where a person seems to be floating outside of his physical body. This experience is common in near death situations but it also occurs at other times.
Those who have an OBE report they can look down upon their physical body lying in a room. In cases where it happens near death in a hospital setting, they have memories of activities going on in the room as hospital personnel work to save their lives. This type of eerie occurrence has happened to many people and been thoroughly documented numerous times. Some people refer to this out of body experience as astral projection.
In 1943 the term, out of body experience, began to be used rather than the belief centric term 'projection'. In the past, an out of body experience was called 'spirit walking' and scientists are currently researching this phenomenon because they simply can't think of it as something imaginary.
About 1 out of every 10 people will at some time in their lives, encounter this kind of experience. The statistics are large regarding the number of people that have experienced an out of body experience, so this is something that shouldn't be viewed with skepticism.
The out of body experience could be triggered by mental or physical trauma. It may come about through the use of psychedelic drugs or happen when the body slips into a deep coma. It may even happen spontaneously or when one is in a deep trance.
There are numerous sites on the internet that promise you astral projection and travel joys. Astral projection is rather easy if you learn the right way to do it. It has been said that astral projection is a natural process that has been used since ancient times. The sad part is that many people have forgotten how to do it. The plus is that you do not need to have a high level of spirituality or spiritual power to have an out of body experience and you don't have to have a high level of mental power either.
This is not to say that you don't need to concentrate while you are trying to astral travel. Keep in mind that your conscious mind because it has a fear that once you are out of your body that you will not be able to come back. This fear is what inhibits your ability to astral travel or astral project.
You must develop the belief that it is possible for your astral body to safely leave your physical body. You must also believe that both bodies will be safe during the separation and your astral body will always be able to return. If you do harbor fear that you will die if your astral body separates or that it will get stuck in limbo, then it is probably not a good idea to delve into astral projection until your fear of the out of body experience has been resolved.
One the mind has been silenced and you know that you believe the astral body will return you can use mediation or hypnosis to achieve a successful out of the body experience. This should be begin by thinking positively, repeatedly tell yourself that you want to astral travel and that it is safe. Once the mind finally takes over you will find that you are very open to the idea of astral travel.
To get started, locate a peaceful area where you won't be disturbed. Lie down with your arms at your sides and allow your aura to harmonize Mother Nature. Breath deeply, focusing on completely relaxing your physical body in a manner that will allow your astral body to venture forth and explore the dimensions far beyond your mental and physical knowledge. You will soon start to feel your body beginning to tingle. Allow this sensation. Anytime a conscious thought sneaks into your head, push it aside and focus on gentle, deep breathing.
Your body will probably feel vibrations and your heartbeat may become rapid. Keep yourself centered and calm. Don't get excited or you may thwart the out of body experience. Let the feelings engulf you while you focus only on your breath. In this state, your astral body is able to leave your physical body behind and set off on an exciting journey. Just allow it to happen rather than trying to force it.
Many people that have gone through an out of body experience say the OBE ended because they feared they were getting too far from their physical body. These people explain that their experiences were definitely not a dream and they were in an entirely different realm or sphere and undergoing experiences there. If you want to enter the exciting world of astral projection and astral travel, just remember that as long as you believe it's possible you will be able to do it.
