Astral Projection How to have an out of body experience

[DTR1975]

Has anyone on the Forum tried this?

Most of the people who watch this video would probably come away from it with the questions: Is this something I could do? Is this something that I should do? If it works what will happen to me? What will be the long term consequences (for good or ill) if this works? Not gonna lie I am curious about it but probably too scared to actually try it. I guess that's why I was looking for feedback.

I have not attempted this. I have however experienced spontaneous Astral Projection. The very first time it occurred I had never even heard of AP!
Thinking I had had some sort of NDE or OBE I began researching, stumbling upon AP and realizing that this was precisely what had happened to me!
It was exciting, to say the least

How did it happen? Do you have any idea what caused it?

[Zen Tzu]

TONY!
That is to say we are "Spiritual Beings" having a human experience

Zen Tzu, my concept of our spiritual experience is that we are ALWAYS in OBE and AP spiritually so when we sense it physically it is because we simply become aware of it from our human point of view.

My first AP was quite some time ago but as I recall I was asleep when my body began vibrating. I then heard a buzzing sound and popped out of my body. I felt myself floating and began to ascend. At some point I met what I believe was some sort of guide, a male figure who I did not know. We ascended higher and higher, faster and faster and shot through space and the galaxies (I very clearly remember going through space). We reached an even higher place and as my guide was about to show me what was on the other side I became frightened that I would not be able to return and suddenly I was back in my body.
I do not know what caused it and as mentioned I had never even heard of AP at that point.

That's pretty wild. Honestly, I would probably be scared, too. I don't even like roller-coasters.

I have actually always loved roller coasters

Hello, Diane. The experience you had, started in the same way as my OBEs start. However, I would say that, unlike most of my OBEs, you had a very profound and mystical experience, NDE-like I would say.

Have you tried to fill in the OBERF questionnaire and the Greyson NDE Scale Test?

Did this experience change you in any way?

I am thinking about trying this but at the same time I'm kind of nervous. What if it doesn't work? Does that mean I don't have the ability or does it mean I just need to practice? Or what if it does work and then I can't get back into my body? Or what if I get attacked by an evil spirit? I would have no idea how to handle that.
