Out Of Body Experience and OBE's Explained
An out of body experience or OBE happens when an individual has the sensation of floating outside of the body. This is a scientifically proven occurrence that usually takes place if a person is near death.
There is also a phenomenon known as astral projection and this is when your physical body is being observed by you from outside of your body, this is also an out of body experience. This is a real experience and one that should not be ignored. There have been many people that were on the verge of dying that have come back to share their experiences, they have been able to tell other's in the room what was going on even though medically speaking the were non-responsive.
During 1943 the term began to be used widely rather than the term 'projection' that was a more belief centric term. In the olden days, an out of body experience was called 'spirit walking'. Scientists are actively studying this phenomenon because they are unable to consider that it's an imaginary experience.
This is due to the fact that the statistics back up the claims that out of body experiences do take place. Consider that one out of every ten people have experienced an out of body experience at some point I their life.
An out of body experience can happen at various times. It could be brought on by psychedelic drugs or happen as a result of a deep trance. It may be the result of mental or emotional trauma. Physical trauma or coma may initiate an out of body experience. Sometimes it may happen spontaneously while other times it may be done intentionally.
You may even be able to deliberately induce an out of body experience. You can find books and courses that claim to be able to teach you how to astral travel at will. It is thought that the Ancients had the natural ability for astral travel but this art has been lost throughout the generations. However, once taught the proper way to do it, people today can purposely have an out of body experience without the need of well trained mental powers or even advanced spiritual development.
You will need the power of concentration however. Your conscious mind fears the out of body experience because of the concern that you will not be able to re-enter your body. This feat is what keeps you inside of your body and makes astral projection difficult to accomplish at will.
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.
If you have been able to completely silence your mind and truly believe it's possible, then you're likely ready to travel. In order to successfully go through an OBE, you will have to use both self hypnosis and meditation. Continue to the positively and keep telling yourself that you truly one to have a successful out of body experience. When your mind completely takes over, you will be incredibly receptive to the thought of astral travel.
Set aside a time when you will not be disturbed. Stretch out and make yourself comfortable. Place your arms at your side. Take slow deep breaths and work on total relaxation of your physical body. When your physical body and mind are in a state of deep relaxation, your astral body can depart and explore new dimensions of reality that exist beyond your present mental and physical awareness. As it prepares to leave for an out of body experience, you will notice that your body begins to tingle. Don't fight this sensation, but encourage it. Ignore any conscious thoughts you may have and focus only on taking gentle deep breaths.
An OBE usually begins with a rapid heartbeat and vibrations. Allow these vibrations to completely engulf you. Don't allow yourself to get overly excited. Concentrate on remaining calm. Allow the sensations to completely take over your body, soul, and heart. You will soon find that your astral body is leaving your physical body and you are beginning an exciting astral journey.
For some people, their astral journey ended because a fear overcame them that their astral body was not going to be able to make it back because it was getting to far away. They have also stated that then knew that they weren't dreaming because they knew that they were existing in another realm having experiences there. The key to an out of body experience such as astral travel or projection is believing that you can do it and believing that your astral body will make it back.
