Introduction
It is believed that each and every night when we go to sleep, our spirit embarks upon a quest of wonder, far beyond the reaches of our physical world. We leave our physical bodies behind, and travel in spirit form, questing the wonders of our physical world, or even wandering about on the other side of reality and witnessing the underlying workings of our universe.
We do not tend to remember these journeys because during them, our conscious mind is fast asleep. Instead we are functioning through our subconscious mind, and since the conscious mind can not correctly interpret these subconscious images, we remember only vague details or nothing at all. It is quite possible that a good portion of the dreams we remember, may have been excursions while out-of-body.
A small percentage of the population sometimes finds themselves in the midst of a very real experience, while fully conscious of the events they perceive. They may see their physical bodies from a different vantage point. They may travel to other physical places. When they wake, they have an instinctive knowledge that the experience was real, but most are afraid to even talk about it for fear of what others might think. These people have had spontaneous out-of-body experiences, and I am fortunate to be one of them!
Imagine waking up, floating above your body, and being able to move simply by thought. You can go anywhere! You are truly free! To have these experiences given to you, is a great gift. There are many people who have had such experiences, in fact more than you might realize.
For those who have not had spontaneous out-of-body experiences, it is possible to learn to induce this state by will, and anyone who has patience and the dedication to learn will eventually be able to achieve it!
Imagine being able to travel by thought, leaving your physical body safely behind, and return at will!
The knowledge is nothing new. For centuries, Tibetan monks have spent years of their lives in practice and meditation in order to attain altered states of consciousness with ease. The shamans of the Native American tribes have embarked upon their vision quests for ages. The knowledge has also been passed down in hidden texts shared with initiates of many Occult ‘secret societies’. Now it is hidden no longer. You too can learn this faculty with perseverance! Remember, you will eventually succeed! After all, this ability has been known and practiced for a very long time, by many different cultures. It is within all of us.
I have noticed that over the last decade or so, there seems to have been a large shift in thought and belief about psychic and paranormal phenomenon on a global scale. It seems that more and more people are realizing their potential goes well beyond their physical limits. Out-Of-Body Experiences fall within these categories, along with other psychic abilities such as telepathy. Either more people have been experiencing these phenomena then before, or more are simply willing to talk about their experiences. Either way, now is a good time to start learning how you too can develop your ability, with many books and tools available to you.
There is no easy way to achieve this goal however. There are many aids out there to help you with your quest, but none of them will ultimately make the experience happen. Only you can! You must have the patience to learn, and the dedication to keep at it, even in the eyes of failure and this book is but one tool to help you along that path.
It is the goal of this guide to teach the basic theory and practice required to induce the out-of-body experience by will, and while fully conscious of the event. Within these pages you will find the theory behind out-of-body experiences, a section on the practical exercises and techniques to help you induce them on your own, a brief history of my own experiences including journal entries, and some of my personal observations on the subject. I have also included a section with a selection of my OBE inspired poetry.
I wrote this for all the seekers…
