  • Thanks, Michael. "Be confident that such places already exist" - I began consciously remembering my OBEs when I was five years old, and yes, my heart is full of joy about the existence of such places. It's always good to meet fellow travellers like you.

    With Love

  • You may assume that there are always places where there are advanced beings and places where they are no so advanced beings.

     

    This means that if you find yourself i a place where the civilization is not so advanced and they are making some very primitive mistakes even if they have advanced technologies, then it means that you may work to help elevate those beings. Or you may review your psychological profile and find the cause of your manifesting among more primitive beings.

    The lower places are there for the evolution and development of the lower beings regardless of the human forms they use or some other form and they have to work their way up the evolutionary cycle, which might take millions of life times for their improvements.

    If you find that you are unable to reach higher levels where the highly evolved and divine beings are, then it means that somehow your psychological profile has become unsuitable for living with them but you can through meditation adjust that condition and go to those higher places.

    Be confident that such places already exist and that the earth or other adjacent astral regions are open to those entities who are evolving upwards and whose behavior will of necessity comprise of many many faulty ways. They do learn but by trial and error mostly and in that way their troublesome instincts are corrected after many many lifetimes.

     

  • Here is a dream I had in 2007. I still remember it until now like one would remember a journey on Earth, and these days I have to smile because the man in the Tibetan clothes tried to show me peace - and I was so caught up with focusing on negativity. :")


    "I was at a place where there were people. I sat down and a little boy came, he was about four years old. He had dark hair. He took his index finger and drew a symbol onto my forehead. From the way it felt, it was either a square or a circle. He looked me in the eyes the whole time while he was doing this. Then he said what this means, but now I have forgotten.
    The father came, and I said to the father "Are you teaching him these things?"
    The father said "No, he always does this naturally by himself."
    I knew the father in the dream, he was in his thirties, but I don't know him outside the dream. I became a bit sadened and walked away.
    There was a buffet with many different types of food. I got some vegetables out of a bowl. They had been prepared in Asian style, a strange sort of Asian mushrooms added. I took a look at the cakes, too. There was a very, very tasty looking chocolate cake. There was also a cake with a lighter sort of icing that seemed to be containing gelatine.
    I thought "Why do they still make cakes with gelatine, there are so many different ways of replacing gelatine."
    In the meantime I had placed my plate with the vegetables onto one of the tables, but when I came back, one of the staff had taken it away because they had obviously thought it had been an abandoned plate.
    I had already been a bit sad, but now I became aggravatedly sad. I said to someone " I really do not understand why they do this?!?" I felt a lot of pressure from frustration inside of me.
    There was a building in front of me. I walked towards the building entrance. It was a square building made out of glass. I felt so extraordinarily sad inside and thought about many, many things in relation to human behaviour. I walked by the glass wall, and then suddenly I saw a man standing behind the glass wall. He was dressed like a Tibetan Monk, in an orange tunika. It startled me for a moment. We looked at each other, and I felt like I was going to start to cry in a moment, and he smiled at me. Then with his right hand he waved with his fingers towards him in order to indicate to come in. For a moment I walked on, but then I thought, perhaps he is someone I can talk to, and I turned around and went into the building.
    He was gone, but I had seen him walk along the hallway one could see from outside the transparent wall, and so I walked along there and came around a corner. Around the corner, there were stairs that led down only a few steps, but here was a lookout over the countryside.
    I didn't say anything and just wanted to sit down, still frowning, and the man said to me, "You communicate in different ways that these people do not understand. This isolates you. You communicate through the art of silence."
    I got aggravated again and said, "Telepathy. It's not silence."
    He said, "Perhaps I should have gone to a different place. There's not much space here."
    I replied, "I'm not intending to sit down where you are sitting."
    He got up and sat down on one of the stairs and pointed me to sit down at the spot he had been sitting at previously. I didn't want to do that, but I felt so sad that I accepted the offer since here was a spirit that I felt was not as foreign to me as those I had been around outside where the buffet had been.
    I sat down, and in the very same moment, the building vanished, and all around us were very high mountains. It took me a moment to adjust. I had a blue woolly blanket covering my legs, sitting there, and I turned around and was going to say to him that I didn't mean to take his blanket, but then I saw he also had one.
    I said "Mankind has advanced greatly in these times. But mindwise they are stuck in creating categories that undermine the gathering of pure knowledge. And yet, they have come so far."
    I still felt utterly and looked out over the amazing mountains.
    The man said "There was a time when they were as advanced as humans are today. They were able to create much more effective and non-polluting technologies. They knew about aerial passenger tramways... look over there, this is not an invention of today."
    He pointed over to a metal construction in front of me that was part of a funicular system. I gathered from this that we were here at a spot that was visited by humans.
    I still felt sad and said "But today they dismiss everything. They even dismiss a little boy who knows things from birth he hasn't learned from the direct humans around him because nothing else exists for them. How can they create from spirit if they dismiss spirit..."
    The man in the Tibetan clothes smiled at me free from sorrow or anger or pain, and for a moment I thought he didn't understand my concern. But then I realized that he had higher knowledge and that he wasn't of the same concern as I."


  • Apart from meanings for dreams and specific application to what we are physically doing, some are just experiences like if you wake up one morning and it is raining. You won't usually inquire as to the meaning of the rain but will accept it as just part of the weather, part of the development out of the reality that is in this atmosphere.

    The astral levels are there already, existing and taking place even when we are not aware of them. When we become aware of them, it is just like if you go to another country. As soon as you get there something will happen and you will observe that but it is not necessarily something that is particular to you. The history is being made there, and you join in as part of an event, that was taking place there.

    While the seal was friendly there and communicated directly and responded sensibly, the same seal if it is on this side of existence would be hesitant and even distrustful of you. That seal may have a physical body just as you have one and would have reacted differently to you because the physical side carries with it, certain prejudices which a particular astral world would not have.

    The main thing is that you can live in a more harmonic world on the astral planes and this physical world is not that world and would never be.
  • Maybe some of you know...
    I was dreaming a dream which felt so real (i know most dreams do, but this didnt seem to involve processing the day that had passed..).
    I'm walking towards trouble, to school, to my life as it is in "reality". I'm confused and stressed, just like I am during awake. Then I walk pass a sea of some sort. There are seals there. Some of them dissappear and I wish they could stay, they seemed magical. One of them stays. The seal is beautiful and prestine, it comes closer to me but I can't recall how it actually moved. Suddenly, its face is right in front of me. It's telephatic but I can't remembered what it communicated. The face was so peaceful and beautiful, calm. So big, endless eyes. Such a beautiful creaute.

    Does it mean anything to dream about seals that way?
  • The astral body has nothing to do with drowning. That is a feature of the physical form. The flaw however in the astral form is that it assumes the attitude and limitations of the physical form, and carries those impressions over into the astral level. Thus fears from the physical side which are real on the physical plane may be carried over in the mind, in conceptions to the astral side and be imagined there even though in fact those aspects are not possible in the astral plane.

    You might understand this from the experience of going to see scary movies. While viewing those clips, the mind might experience fear and even trauma even though in fact, the images on the screen cannot physically harm the physical body.

    The problem therefore is to remove the astral body's tendency to carry over impressions of life on this side of existence into the astral plane and for it to be open-minded to what is possible there. For this you may have to practice meditation.

    Sometimes in an astral experience, one finds oneself in another country, and then one feels that one might be late for work, so one hurries to catch a flight at the airport and then one finds oneself back in a room at home waking up. So in that case again the astral body which can travel at the speed of light tried to act as if it was as limited as the physical body. These experiences can give you some understanding of the different realities in different dimensions.
  • our biology teacher is a scientists and even he taught us to take our dreams very seriously. He also said that when we sleep - there are biochemical functions that inhibit our movement, people who sleepwalk have a weak link between the chemical bonds. But aside from these functions, in our brain, the dream is percieved just as real as the "reality" we live in. Just like our thoughts, everything we imagine, believe, read, etc becomes real in the mind because it's there. Its just good sometimes to know that a hardcore scientists realise this =) Im used to them being a lot more conservative in their ideas about out mind.

The Astral Dirt Road

The father of my present body pulled my body in the astral world during the night to a place where he is presently staying. He is deceased for some years now but he is living in an adjacent parallel world which is an astral dimension which runs parallel to this earthly place and which mimics what happened on this earthly place during the better part of his life. There are other deceased persons in that place, who all passed on about the same time years ago and who are living there in harmony…

Astral Projection in the Canadian Wilderness

Deliberate astral projection usually occurs from a lying position. It is easier to do it from a position laying on the back on a hard surface. Sometimes astral projection occurs during the night when the physical body is sleeping, which really means that it occurs and then one becomes aware that it has occurred. That is not deliberate astral projection. That is the normal way in which the psychic nature conducts it. In deliberate astral projection, the yogi is conscious of the separation but in…

Slave in Parallel World

Astral Slave OperationDuring the night I found myself in an adjacent parallel world with about 5 people. At that place for some reason I became conscious of myself working in a precious metals mine. This is just like when one takes a body and then gradually one becomes conscious of the self as the son of Mr. and Mrs. Blair or some other couple. Or even when one finds oneself as the son of Miss Betty who is a prostitute and who does not know the specific person who was the father. At first when…
