This is a repost from a forum post I have made earlier. I was curious to get insight from you guys :)
Last night I had my first concious astral projection. I had woken up at exactly 5pm and stayed lying there for a minute or so. I felt EXTREME vibrations and when it died down I felt like getting up. I felt my upper body raise and I tried to look around. I couldn't see anything (I hadn't realised what was happening) and it felt like there was the blackest smoke covering my eyes. TBH it felt amazing even though I couldn't get my legs out.
For a few minutes I was sitting up and heard someone in the kitchen. The noise startled me and as soon as I had heard it I was ripped back into my body and was wide awake.
When I got into the vibrational state I was:
sleeping on my right, facing mostly north
had a very clear mind
was mildly ill
(before I was in the state) had the thought that there was something outside my window
I have a few questions about this experience too
How do I clear my mind? Do I just think of blackness?
How would I get my legs out? Do I try the rollout technique?
Can anybody help me replicate this? Maybe run through the steps.
How long does it take most people to enter the vibrational state and what do you think of to do it?
What techiques to get to teh vibrational do you recommend?
Thanks for the help and if I have any more questions I will post in the replies.
It might take a while to figure out how to "see". Light in the physical world doesn't reach the spiritual world. You won't be able to actually see anything. It's more of a feeling, a sense.
Clearing your mind... That's a bit hard. I've never been able to do it. Allow thoughts into your head. Do they have anything to do with what you want to think about? It not, just let them run out until they don't produce anything new and then focus on your goal again. Most people can't completely clear their mind. We have too many thoughts to monitor or control. Just let them in and then let them go.
The roll out works. It's just important to remember not to use your physical muscles. I usually experience free fall, but up.
Before going to bed and every morning when you wake up, focus, meditate, and spend time trying to project. Don't forget to do this. The intention and repetition will make things happen.
It takes me half an hour or an hour to start feeling the vibrations. I meditate and such.
Simply thinking about it works wonders. If you want to learn how to meditate, look up Alan Watts, try guided meditations without falling asleep. Etc.
