how many people here have ever used their dreams as a method for leaving their bodies (astral projection)?

or how many people have ever had an out-of-body experience?

the 1st time i ever left was when i was 17.

i was listening to one of those guided visualization tapes & woke up on the ceiling.

it scared the buhjesus out of me  & i didn't practice the techniques again for about 3 years.

emotions are more intense once you separate your astral body from your physical body
because the 1st few times you feel like you may be dying.

it brings out some primal fears that you think you didn't have.

i eventually got over my fears with alot of practice.

p.s.
are there demons on some of the astral planes? yep there is......

you may meet some if you are not pure enough - i sure did since i am far from pure.

scarry terrible things they are to do battle with  

make sure you call upon angelic assistance or some other form of protection b4 you project
