Hi, I have a few questions on Astral Projection...
1) Is this actually considered to be your soul leaving your physical body?
2) When projecting are you in realtime? For example when you exit and see yourself do you see others? Like could you project and watch over your wife and children
2-a (realtime) Is it possible to project while awake? I have on several occasions looked down upon myself driving, sitting, other, different times/places etc. Sometimes focused sometimes not, it is best described as google earth like view going up the down wherever I want to go. It feels much more than a manifestion of my wandering mind.
3) If it is your "soul" can your body be over taken while out? Is it dangerous I guess is what I'm saying.
4) I feel that I have Astral projected from an early age but it also seems like dreams, like my mind has seen too many things and I have an extremely strong immagination to create anything anywhere. Such as, I'm on the beach in Hawaii and I can literally feel sand between my toes and hear waves breaking. But I also can't remember things like it was just a lucid dream, times that I feel I have truly astral projected I was totally alone with a calming presence with me that did not use words and I filled overwhelmingly safe and content.
Any input or thoughts would be appreciated! I would like to try this seriously but to be honest I am quite afraid and nervous...
1) yes and no. More like an expansion of your awareness. Leaving ones body is a necessary metaphore for the mind to articulate what's happening. In truth the duality dosnt exist, but we are differential creatures.
I have watched over family many times. I cannot do it while in normal conciousness. Others seem to be able to. I have heard of the driving thing more than a few times now, I suspect it's part of the satori state people can reach while driving, but I don't really have any experience here.
3) your body cannot be taken over. This is a myth projected by the religously dogmatic who really don't have a clue.
4) projections douwnload straight to long term memory. By passing short term memory centers. You most write them down to retain the grandure of what they are.
The calming presence is your angel. A very special spirit guide that will carry you places if you ask.
I hope that helps
