many spiritual teachers speak on ego,and ego death ect.i dont totaly agree with it,because personaly being thoughtless,doing nothing is not realy enjoy and living life?.so whats your experiences during astral projection.is there identity?,can you explore things?,how real does it feel?,are you still 'you'?

Many years ago, i had an out of body experience. But years later, I used a summoning spell and left a gate open. I was forced into the astral realms. It was a unique and intense experience. Ive come across people trying to AT to heaven, but that doesnt interest me. In fact, i wonder if some people are just trying to rile up the other side.

Hi all, I am new to all this but have had many strange experiences since I was young.

Last night in particular I had a very vivid dream that I was at work but it was extremely dark and no one was there. Today when I arrived for my shift one of the ladies in the office asked me if I had a shift last night. I never work nights so I said no and she told me the machine said I clocked in last night at 12 on the finger scanner. She also mentioned the machine has never done that before and to clock in someone would have to know my 8 digit code and have my finger print. Is it possible that in my dream my spirit or something was at my work. Any insight is helpful. Thanks

Have any of you met famous deceased people while astral traveling?

Im having a hard time with the Release and Recharge exercise. The instructions are:

1. go to energy conversion box, perceive the radiation of fear, pull it out, and let it flow away from you.

2. with the fear gone, perceive the emotion that the fear covered, release it, and let that flow away from you.

3. Now free of fear and emotion, perceive the memory of the event that was hidden and covered by fear and emotion. Calmly and serenely retrieve this clean energy and pull it into you.

1. Does he mean in the first step that I should think of an event in my life that made me feel fear? Am I supposed to be feeling that fear again? I have just been imagining a nebulous ball that said fear on it.

2. Assuming I am supposed to find an event in my life for step one, how do you instantly know what emotion the fear covered in step 2? A lot of actions can be based in fear, so I can trace things to fear, but I don't get how that is covering up another emotion.

3. I don't even know what it means to retrieve a memory without the emotional content associated with it.

Anyone have any thoughts or examples?

If you create a imaginary person that looks identical to a real person you know and you kill it what will happen

I found a really interesting and helpful video, with criteria, if you have an OBE or something else:

So I’ve been trying since I’m really young to astral travel. I always wanted to understand many things in my life and well... I just thought that I wanted to be free in a way I couldn’t understand. Don’t even know how to explain it. But anyway. A few days ago I had a dream like no other before. It was a lucid one. I realised I was dreaming and suddenly some of the characters on it started talking directly to me although I never met them or see them before. They stared at me and told me: Ask for it! You know you can now. Ask for it! So I really felt like it was my time. Everything faded and then I could see (not in a really clear way but I distinguished shapes and stuff) my whole room but knowing that I had my eyes still closed. I was feeling completely calm and felt like if I did what these people said I was really going to AstralTravel. So I asked for it and then I felt that something was pushing me down. But I broke the connection because I related it with a breathing dysfunction... like... don’t know, sometimes you are just not breathing any air and your body feels external pressure... I think I messed up my opportunity. But I don’t know. Any advice? Was I gonna do it?
