Astral Projection


All of us have experienced Astral Projection, whether or not we have cognitively recognized it as such. A more common term for this phenomena is Out of Body Experience (OBE), and studies have revealed that all individuals enter this state of being every evening upon retiring.

An Out of Body Experience is the sensation that you are leaving your body and viewing the world from a different perspective than you normally would in a conscious state. During an OBE one always has a clear acknowledgement of "self," which makes an OBE much different than the typical dream. Generally, an OBE will end abruptly, sometimes with the sensation of falling. Some experiences may occur spontaneously during deep relaxation, sleep, or near-sleep.

Learning to control an OBE offers the unique opportunity to experience and explore beyond the limits of the physical senses and obtain firsthand knowledge of the very essence of existence. Most people view their duplicate selves the same as they would in the physical world, and the more open an individual is to expanded perceptions beyond the physical world, the more enhanced their capabilities will become.

Opening the Third Eye


Discover the joy of the soul beyond the pleasures and pains of the mind. Then go deeper and surrender your joy, your will, for the explosion of your whole being into light.

This is sweet surrender, the giving up of what you think is amazing so that you may be present with what is within you and before you. What you think is spiritual or "the secret" is your next obstacle. This is a key insight to open the third eye.

When mortals seek psychic or ecstatic experiences they eventually suffer its opposite. The average person is addicted to such stimulations. This is chasing the carrot on the stick. This brings energy up the ida or pingala via mental power--not soul strength. Eventually the seeker has an astral plane crash.

By surrendering your attention into light, you float downstream with grace as your guide. You see that a life of controlled magic may bring temporal pleasures, but cannot bring lasting joy. You experience the Self filling your life with as much ecstasy and serendipity as you can handle--innocent magic. You become absorbed in the Heart (Week 6) and see all phenomena as a funny movie.

The open third eye sees Everything and Nothing--at once.

Some "psychics" use the third eye for personal glory and experience the psychic boomerang of their misdirected intent. They abuse the third eye by projecting onto others the lack, dis-ease, and pain hidden in their own beliefs. They have visions of astral events or natural disasters that reflect their internal turmoil.

These visions usually do not materialize because many psychics are unaware of the overriding clear visions of souls creating from the spiritual planes. Psychics do not realize that it takes only a few bright lights to dissolve the limited visions of millions; and that the Way to master the future is to master the moment.

Wizards gaze into the crystal ball of the eye,
past astral delights into the Source beyond mortal sight.

Quotes on Meditation

by: Sri Chinmoy

Nothing impresses me any more,
save and except
My own deep meditations.

Meditation stops
The sound-loving mind.

To my greatest relief,
I have silenced
My questioning mind.

When I pray,
I feel I am tiny,
very tiny.

When I meditate,
I feel I am vast,
very vast.

When I contemplate,
I feel I am neither tiny nor vast -
I am just a player
Who plays hide and seek with God.

When I pray,
I clearly see that God is coming down
From Above.

When I meditate,
I clearly see that God is already seated
Inside my heart.

My Lord,
When I most intensely pray and meditate,
The world badly misunderstands me.
My Lord, what shall I do?
"My child, you have only one world,
And that world is all love.
It needs neither understanding
Nor misunderstanding."

When we pray and meditate
Sincerely and soulfully,
We receive an open-hearted invitation
From Heaven.
