questions such as, "When out of body, how do I travel to another
country if I don't know the way? Do I need a map?", "How do I pass
through physical objects?" or "Isn't it all just a figment of my
imagination?" and the best one; "Isn't astral projection just lucid
dreaming?" I say the best one because we have so many
assumptions, connotations, and preconceptions about 'dreaming'
in conventional modern knowledge. It may not seem like there’s
anything wrong with these questions at first glance; however, they
are filled with deep-rooted assumptions embedded in our
perception of how we think the world works on the surface layer of
reality.
When trying to have out of body experiences, people often
overthink the process in the same ways we conventionally think of
learning new things. They do this by dissecting every step and
asking questions such as, "When I get to such-and-such a stage,
how do I proceed to the next stage?" or "Do I need to have my
chakras activated before astral projecting?". In this book, I hope to
explain to you a state of being where you can rely not on
complicated theories and speculations, but instead on your own
inner guidance and intuition, which favours your ability to trust the
flow of your own natural processes rather than your
apprehensions. One can study the piano for many years, but it takes
feeling the keys and the beat of the music to play it. Learning astral
projection, which barely relies on thought, is understood not
through theory but through experience and practice. There will be
a series of exercises provided throughout the book which you can
use. The rest of the book should act to complement your
contemplation and understanding.
Accordingly, astral projection is the only subject I've felt is
discernible enough for me to write a book on. Just as I've felt since
I was a child, I've found little personal purpose in pursuing subjects
that don't have practical application in my personal life. Some may
notice I put little stress on backing up my claims or accounts of my
