1. An Overview of The OBE
Just about everyone has heard of Out Of Body before. You might have heard someone talking
about it or read of it somewhere, perhaps seen it in a film.
Relatively few people, though, comprehend that Out Of Body is a real event, and that everyone is
capable of doing it. It is extremely likely that you have astral projected without even knowing it.
So what exactly happens during Astral Projection? When you astral project, your astral body
comes out from your physical form. Most often this happens during sleep when your body is
resting. Your conscious mind rests while you sleep too; but the subconscious is still going strong
and it is the source of your astral body which then leaves your body and goes out exploring the
universe.
When you're astral projecting, you can go anywhere and do anything. Maybe you dimly recall
being able to do anything you wanted in your dreams as a child. You were probably astral
projecting but as you grew up; you lost this talent to disregard the bounds of space and time. With
out of body, your body is at rest while your astral self takes off and explores.
Many people may not be aware of the fact that many enlightened individuals believe in the
existence of multiple bodies. The physical being only one of these bodies and the astral being
another. It may also be referred to as the ethereal body. The astral body is considered to be both
invisible and a duplicate of the physical body. It lacks substance, which has given rise to its name
as an ethereal body. The question then becomes if the body lacks substance how can it be
connected to the physical body. The answer is through a silver cord.
This cord keeps your two beings connected from the moment you're born until your last breath. As
long as you live, your astral body will always come back to your physical form after its travels.
Often times the question of where the astral body actually travels will come up with discussing Out
of Body. The astral plane is the realm of the astral body and it is through this plane, which consists
of many levels that the astral body travels. The astral plane has several different theories that
surround it. The first is that the astral plane is an alternate dimension of reality which overlays the
physical. Another is that it happens to come in contact with the physical world through vibrations,
which puts the astral plane on another wavelength separating it from the physical world. No matter
what particular description is used to explain the existence of an astral plane, experts in the field
agree that there are multiple levels to this alternate plane.
2. It is natural at this point to wonder whether or not Out Of Body is dangerous in any way. The
answer is both yes and no. We have already established that the astral body cannot permanently
leave the physical body, and that everyone is capable of Out Of Body. But, just like anything you
do, you need to be able to think effectively. Solid thinking skills are required so that you can go
where you want and know what you plan to accomplish.
The greatest danger when astral projecting comes with the mind is not carefully prepared or under
the influence of thought and perception, altering substances such as drugs or alcohol. There are a
number of levels to the astral plane. The lower levels are not considered places to visit and are
often considered to be unsafe. It is these levels that are easiest to access when under the
influence of drugs or alcohol.
Exercise the same care you would in a place you don't know in the physical universe. Just be
aware of your surroundings and you'll be fine. However, the aim of Out of Body isn't just to stay
safe it's to practice the ability until you're able to do it consciously and be in total control of your
thoughts.
With the correct preparation Out of Body can be done by you quickly. Numerous professionals are
in business to teach you the techniques of how to astral project while being in control so that you
can achieve a better projection experience, but most people like to be at home when the astral
project.
There are also a number of books and online resources available. For example, by listening to a
quality Out Of Body hypnosis recording, you can enter the right state of mind. This type of
recording will help you fully relax and will take you through the necessary stages. The advantage
of a recording over a professional session is that you can play the recording multiple times until
your subconscious receives the message that it is okay for the astral body to leave the physical
body.
A new audio technology called binaural beats can also help you to begin astral projecting quickly.
These are slightly different frequencies which are played into each ear. These frequencies relax
you and allow you to easily attain the mental state needed for Out of Body.
The first few times you try to astral project, you may not succeed. Don't get discouraged. Out of
Body can take some practice before you get good at it and with time, you will develop this natural
ability.
If you're not convinced that you can astral project, think back to one of those dreams you've had
where you're flying, then falling. This was an Out of Body, not a dream. The flying you experienced
was your astral body traveling and the falling sensation was your astral body returning to your

out of body is a real ability that everyone has, everyone can use and all it needs is a bit of fine-
tuning in order to be able to do it at will.
