Mastering Astral Projection - Is It Possible?

By Bonita Symes

Mastering Astral Projection involves mastering the art of separating your conscious from your physical body and traveling from the latter towards another higher astral plane. Ancient religious practitioners were known to be experts in this and could transcend the physical boundaries of the universe by traveling to higher astral planes.

Esoteric believers and numerous individuals today are much interested in mastering astral projection of self into the higher subtle conscious realms. Though a bit eerie, but this is an experience of a lifetime since it involves leaving you own body and observing it from a distance. Moreover you can travel as far away as you want and observe the world from your astral body.

In mastering astral projection, the primary thing is affirming your subconscious mind that you will be able to do it. If your subconscious is unsure and you have the slightest of doubt then astral travel will be extremely difficult. Absolute faith achieves almost anything and hence the best technique is to write down some of your beliefs regarding life and reality and then write down and reiterate to yourself about the eternally free, omnipotent nature of your soul which can travel to different astral planes.

The second and vitally important part in mastering astral projection is starting meditation techniques. With increased meditation, you will be more aware of your inner self, be able to control your subconscious and channel all your attention and energy into your object of desire thereby developing a heightened power of concentration and visualization which are required for mastering astral projection.

Thirdly, mastering astral projection includes the very crucial element of time. The perfect time in which to induce such a projection is during REM sleep. Humans sleep in four stages with each stage becoming deeper than the previous one. After the last stage of very deep sleep, the cycle reverses till it comes to the phase of the REM or rapid eye movement phase where the brain activity is at its maximum. This is the time which is the most conducive for mastering astral projection.

Now that you have prepared yourself mentally for astral travel and know the perfect time for it, arrange for a dimly lit room where there's calm and pace without any interference from person or electrical devices. If possible abstain from too much food and items like caffeine and thereafter lie down slowly wearing light comfortable clothes. Your primary objective should be to mimic REM sleep. Start with small meditational techniques for calming down your mind and to channelize your energies. Attempt to visualize a rope dangling in front of you and yourself climbing out of your body. Go into a deep trance like state and focus all your energy on this visualization.

An important point to note in mastering astral projection is the fact that when you are traveling away from your body, even if you for the slightest of moments think about or feel a sudden anxiety regarding whether you can return back to your body at all, then be sure than you astral projection will come to a sudden end then and there. You will feel a sudden pull from your body or experience a sudden 'sucking back' or 'waking up' from your astral plane to reality.

Lastly, technological interventions like that of the binaural beats can be used in creating the mental state that is conducive to astral projection. Binaural Beats involve hearing two different sound vibrations through both ears which fuses into each other and synchronized in the brain so as to create the required mental state. Whatever technique is used, mastering astral projection is not particularly easy and needs high mind power. However, once achieved, it is an experience of a lifetime which forces open many a doors to your personality which you may not have known before.
