"God is busy building a race of men who know how to LOVE. I believe that the fate of the earth itself depends on the progress we make- and that the time now is very short. As for what we'll find in the next world, here too I believe that what wel''ll discover there depends on how well we get on with the business of loving, here and now." George G. Ritchie
As a boy I was always running and jumping and laughing and looking for adventure! Most considered me to be a major "Daydreamer". Constantly residing in my own special world of dreams. My imagination was always in top gear, attempting to find things that others could not "see" with human eyes!
Starting at the ages of 7 and 8 taking off at night in bed to amazing places was a normal experience for me. Every night was a new adventure! BUT, unfortunately, so many of them became altered by nightmarish incidents that caused me to become a very nervous and fearful child.
Soon I was able to discern with repetition that sleeping on my back was not a good idea. Usually, in order to prevent the horrifying journeys it was very important that I make sure I was safely on my stomach before falling asleep. For some strange reason that always seemed to prevent me from having any of the terrifying experiences of finding myself standing in the bedroom in the middle of the night, all alone and hearing various unknown sounds and unable to turn any of the lights on no matter how hard I tried to do so......... My fingers would always go right through the light switches without any success of making those damn light come on???
The doors and windows would never open, no matter how hard I tried to open them with my hands. Many, many times the various objects in the room would turn into grotesques monsters and cause me to try and scream out for help...... yet the sounds of my voice seemed only to remain within my head and had no physical audible noises?
It took me many decades to one day realize that I was having Out of Body Experiences and that most of mine were due to past traumatic experiences so therefore they were not the most pleasant ones.
This all brings me to the many questions that I have been asked through the years by so many that have asked about how to have these experiences. Since that time I have acquired so much personal and researched information that I have, as you know, by my writing these blogs have become most dedicated to the mysteries of The Out of Body Experience!
There are so many that have attempted to have conscious and controlled astral projections without success. Unfortunately, I continue to believe that it is all due primarily due to the idea that it is a complexed and painstaking workout in order to do so. I continue to tell all those who ask me any information on the subject, that it is not that difficult. In reality, it is very simple! Too many have made it a major task to undertake due to the material gains one can achieve by producing various materials, such as books, films, videos, recordings, etc.
Rather than go into much details here in this particular blog about the HOW TO...... It occurred to me the other day how so many over-look the simple things about achieving their goals when attempting to go out of body.
Before moving on to other blogs, I just wanted to remind those who are interested in the subject and work so hard at it, to remember a few simple indications you might not have realized?
As we all know by now, EVERYBODY has an out of body experience just about every night even though they might not realize it:)
It is always important to remember to keep your journals (one for DREAMS and one for your OBEs) That way always knowing they are not the same in any way!
(Some speak of Lucid Dreams. They are not Out of Body Experiences as such.... do not be confused.(
We are all living here on this planet in our physical vehicles and sometimes forget that we have become somewhat "stuck" in them!!! Therefore, we do not always realize how the astral body operates most of the times. Our "thoughts" become very obvious as to how amazingly powerful they are when in the astral body. We need only use them to perform in our astral bodies.
Unfortunately, sometimes......... We misuse them during our out of body experiences!
YES! And, by doing so, we distort or disguise our adventures when traveling in our non-physical bodies.
Here are a few very simple clues/hints=
When you think you are flying in your dreams, you are out of body, when you believe you are in the most magnificent roller coaster ride, you are probably out of body, when you are running faster than any human being known to mankind, you are usually out of body, when you jump from the highest building you have ever been in and you land safely and gently on the ground, you are out of body, when the car you are driving is speeding down the road and you are laughing and suddenly realize you are not even having to guide it with your hands, you are out of body....... When you find yourself outside, instead of inside an airplane looking in, you are out of body, when you fly down the stairs rather than walk down the stairs in what you believe is a dream, you are probably out of body. That bike ride you took one night in an exciting dream was an out of body experience......... Being above the clouds, instead of below them in the sky was an out of body experience!
I am sure you can think of many more similar experiences that you have had when you thought you were dreaming that will surprise you........ Those thoughts will also hopefully give you unrealized surprises, that all of the work you have been doing to achieve the out of body experience is paying off.
As with so many things in this physical life there are those that we have "forgotten" and with time as you practice, those forgotten memories/skills will come back to you.
And always remember, those loved ones, friends and family members that join us and speak to us in that which we believe are our dreams, are our out of body experiences. Many of them help/assist us in exiting our physical bodies during our sleep periods to join them in that which we call, The Spirit World.
And most of all, always try never to forget and let go of the part of us that found using our imagination and whimsical thoughts, created some of our most beautiful and happiest moments........... Yes, it is most difficult in the physical world. Some call it "hard times". Why? Because it is.... it is "physical with hard matter!" Why are the children laughing and laughing sooooooooo much??? Actually, the answer is very simple: Because they are using fully their non-physical minds. Their imaginations!
And with those imaginations/thoughts, we manifest them into physical realities!
More later.................
Love and Light!
Marshall
