"At that moment I felt a power of will take possession of me like steam in a boiler wanting to burst from its confinement.
When this power reached a certain degree, I noticed the spiritual myself was lifted right off the floor, laid horizontally in space, and pushed slowly, inch by inch, into the physical again.
I could tell when my heart started to beat again and the blood to circulate through my veins. Especially peculiar was the feeling when I observed the mind start to function through the material brain again.... Not long after that I acquired the ability to go in and out at will, with no break in consciousness at all." When in December, 1929, Dr. Ostby read Sylvan Muldoon's The Projection of the Astral Body, he realized that his method of projection was precisely like that given in the book.
"I could lie on my couch," he says, "and my astral body would go out without ever being conscious of the separation. I would think it was my physical self until I would discover that still on the couch. Often I have lain down on the bench at my office and jumped off into the astral, turned and looked at my physical self still on the bench.
"Then I would go to the window, see the traffic in the street, hear people talk, pass through matter, see persons near and far away, go downstairs the back way, through the building, up the front way, and enter my body again.
"While out one time I wanted to know what time it was, and looked at my watch. It was queer that I could see only the rim of the watch and it was impossible to see the dial and hands, try as I would.
