Astral projection and out-of-body experiences Books

Book SynopsisIn 2008, Dr Eben Alexander''s brain was severely damaged by a devastating case of bacterial meningitis, and he lapsed into a weeklong coma. It was almost certainly a death sentence, but Dr Alexander miraculously survived - and brought back with him an astounding story. During those seven days in coma, he was plunged into the deepest realms of consciousness, and came to understand profound truths about the universe we inhabit. What he learned changed everything he knew about the brain mind, and consciousness and drove him to ask a question confounding the entire scientific community: How do you explain the origins of consciousness if it is not a byproduct of the brain? In Living in a Mindful Universe, the New York Times bestselling author of Proof of Heaven and The Map of Heaven shares his insights into the true nature of consciousness. Embracing his radically new worldview, he began a committed program of personal exploration into non-local consci

This doesn''t happen often, but it might with Astral Dynamics, Robert Bruce''s straightforward how-to manual on astral projection. Perhaps you''ve had a spontaneous out-of-body experience and didn''t know it! This extensive tome teaches you everything you need to know to accomplish successful, planned out-of-body travel; how to exit the body, how to get around on the astral plane, and how to get back in with solid, provable memories of the event. Bruce writes very clearly and uses down-toearth terminology so that you learn not only how to create a ''real-time double'' to astrally project but also about the physics of the nonphysical world. Out-of-body experiences can be so confusing that enjoying them or employing them usefully can be a serious challenge. Fortunately, Bruce now brings his 25 years of interdimensional experience to the aid of astral explorers the world over, and everywhere else too."-P. Randall Cohan, Amazon.com

Book SynopsisMans greatest fear is of death. Because of this, a lot of energy goes into defending ourselves against this reality whether it be through illicit or recreational drugs, business or work. Astral Projection Made Easy is an attempt to eliminate this fear through approaching the whole concept of life beyond and outside the physical body through Near-Death Experiences (NDEs)Lucid Dreaming and the technique of Out-of-Body experiences (OBEs). The author draws from a rich source of information, including her own experiences of astral projection over 20 years. Within this context, she includes Eastern teaching and explores astral projection from a scientific, spiritual and psychic perspective. She includes a chapter on consciousness as well as what precipitates an altered state of consciousness. In order to support her work she includes historical case studies of other writers and contemporary ones as well as her own. There is a section on how to identify an out-of-body experience, what it may feel like, and the very real 'symptoms' experienced on a somatic level. More than anything, the work is engaging, accessible and rich in contentTrade Review'Astral Projection Made Easy' is a rewarding read for several reasons. Firstly, it combines fascinating anecdotes and personal experiences with genuine evidence and research into the subject. Secondly it is extremely clearly written, making a confusing subject easy for anyone to understand and creating a practical guide which will indeed help to overcome the fear of death. I would recommend this book to a spiritual beginner and to an experienced spiritual seeker alike. (Jenny Dent, Mother of the White Eagle Lodge, Worldwide)

Book SynopsisWhen Dr Eben Alexander wrote about his own startling near-death experience in Proof of Heaven, he was contacted by countless people from all walks of life. His story had touched them personally and they in turn had their own miraculous experiences of the afterlife to share with Eben. In The Map of Heaven, Eben recounts the astonishing stories he has heard on his travels, from near-death experiences and encounters with angelic beings to inspiring messages from departed loved ones. Each account helps us to understand just how vast the universe really is. Drawing on these accounts and lessons from religious leaders, philosophers and scientific investigations into the role of consciousness, Eben explores our true place in the universe and what exactly exists beyond death.Trade ReviewThe Map of Heaven is an inspiring and moving exploration of the mysteries of the afterlife, from the author of the New York Times bestseller Proof of Heaven * Kindred Spirit *Alexander is far more intellectually sophisticated, and frankly more reverent . . .

Book SynopsisSamantha Lee Treasure grew up on a farm in Ontario, Canada which had multiple reports of ghost sightings, where she became especially interested in OBEs after her brother's experiences. This led her to learn how to have them herself, which in turn inspired her to pursue a BSc in Social Sciences and an MA in Medical Anthropology in order to research them cross-culturally. During her studies in London, she conducted fieldwork with experiencers in the UK, focusing on entity encounters and how they compare with dream characters. She also conducted a cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary study on sleep paralysis with a psychiatry professor in Russia during this time. In addition, she has also conducted fieldwork with the new religious movement Eckankar, with "Contactees", and has worked as a participant and research assistant in two neuroscience studies in Europe. During her MA, she conducted fieldwork in South Korea, exploring the nuances between spontaneous and deliberate OBEs and

Book SynopsisWith compassion and compelling insight, the Pleiadians, those system-busting time-travelers from the future, take us on a journey through the unchartered lands of The Book of Earth, which comprises all human experience. While “our world goes belly-up in these most absurd of times,” they offer us “tools for survival.” During the crucial period between 1987 and 2012--a nanosecond in the annals of existence where secrets and solutions are stored--we have the unique opportunity to move from the deepest of density to the highest of frequencies--where we shift from linear to multi-dimensional living. To make this transition, we must face not only the limitations of our 3-D world with its electronic manipulation and mind control, we must embrace our own wounds, and those of our ancestors and our leaders. To heal ourselves, to raise our frequency from one of despair and fear to one of great inspiration and love, the Pleiadians urge us to rethink and reevaluate our lives: “Youshall change, you will change, you must change, because this is the season of change.”Trade Review"With her third book, Barbara Marciniak establishes herself as a creator of excellent literature, as well as a bringer of essential information. . . . There is a spiritual revolution sweeping the Earth that is going to eclipse the industrial and information revolutions, and this book heralds its coming." * Magical Blend *"Marciniak diligently presents [the Pleiadians'] recommendations for development: exercises that help us to go inside and claim our spirit. Compellingly written, fast-paced and ideologically challenging, Marciniak pushes the reader to take another look at what being human is as we approach the millennium." * Foreword magazine *“There are flashes of a greater story glimpsed throughout Family of Light. And there is mention of a ‘Book of Existence’ in which the role and greater purpose of all us enigmatic entities is further revealed. As I await the next installment of the Pleiadians’ cosmic revelations I will explore what Barbara Marciniak and her friends have already shared in the first two books in this series. I salute the Storytellers for a job well done!” * Hercules Invictus, February 2013 *Table of Contents Acknowledgments Foreword Introduction by the Pleiadians Chapter 1: Reality Exists as a Mirror Chapter 2: Doorways of Time Chapter 3: The Game of Life Chapter 4: Your Great Inheritance Chapter 5: The Peaks of Destiny Chapter 6: Nothing Is Exactly as it Appears to Be Chapter 7: Empire of the Mind Chapter 8: Family of Dark Chapter 9: The Gift the Gods Await Chapter 10: Legends in the Cosmos Chapter 11: The Gods Stashed their Stuff Chapter 12: To Outmake the Maker Chapter 13: The Finest Hour Afterword About the Author

Book SynopsisSpiritual Revelations from Beyond the Veil: What Humanity Can Learn from the Near Death Experience decouples spirituality from a religious context and perspective. It examines the intriguing accounts of people who have undergone a near-death experience (NDE) and what was revealed to them while outside their physical bodies. What those people vividly described went well beyond what can be found in religious scripture. The NDE accounts contain descriptions of Heaven and the higher spiritual realms, what interconnectedness/oneness means, the eternal nature and liberation of the soul consciousness, the gift of free will and its purpose, the nature of soul agreements, the universal laws of attraction, reincarnation, and cause and effect (karma), the nature of positive and negative energy, the significance of the death of our physical body as well as our spiritual rebirth and life review. The study and collation of more than 500 NDE accounts, and the identification of common observations and insights drawn therefrom, culminated in the writing of this book. Going beyond the current NDE literature, which mainly examines the historical, religious, philosophical, scientific and medical aspects of this phenomenon, Spiritual Revelations from Beyond the Veil concentrates on the important messages brought back from beyond the veil for humanity's knowledge and benefit. Some of the learnings, observations and insights from the Other Side presented in this book are truly remarkable, and in a few cases, they test the limits of human, Earthly comprehension.

Book SynopsisHere Anthony Peake suggests that Lucid Dreaming, Out-of-Body Experiences, Remote Viewing and Astral Travel are all elements of the same phenomenon, one that may give mankind an insight into a universe that is far more complex than we can ever have imagined. Peake reviews the history of this fascinating subject and then, using recent discoveries in neurology, consciousness studies and quantum physics, suggests a challenging new model of how our perception may interface with 'reality'. 'The Out-of-Body Experience is a hot topic ...Anthony Peake has extensively covered various fields of enquiry that may, at last, help us to understand this unusual phenomenon. It is the first book on the topic to cast its net around dreams, shamanism, Eastern thought and quantum physics, with OBEs as the central core. Those readers who know little about OBEs will find this a splendid introduction. Those who know a lot will know more after they finish this fascinating, and much needed, book.'

Book SynopsisHistorically, children’s inexplicable experiences -- from telepathy and conversing with deceased relatives to out-of-body- or near-death experiences, and more -- have been theorised through traditional scientific lenses that may not have the explanatory power to account for such experiences. In Children’s Unexplained Experiences in a Post Materialist World, Donna Thomas shares research that she and other scholars, past and present, have conducted with children and young people across the world. By placing children's unexplained experiences and views about reality in the contexts of culture, consciousness and the nature of self, this book offers a middleway for explaining these childhood experiences within post-materialist science and philosophy. Thomas suggests that children's experiences could greatly contribute to a new paradigm for understanding the mystery of being human and the nature of reality.

Book SynopsisNoted astrologer and spiritual teacher Barbara Hand Clow channels the voice of Satya, a Pleiadian goddess. Satya describes the huge cosmic drama taking place simultaneously in nine dimensions, with Earth as the chosen theater. The Pleiadians are a group of enlightened beings who believe that the end of the Mayan Calendar will signal a critical leap in human evolution; the Pleiadians will be there to guide us for that leap. This shift is the coming Age of Light, and the entry of our solar system into the Photon Band and the Age of Aquarius.Trade Review"This will open us to other dimensions, which is a necessity if we are to first heal ourselves and then our planet." * Rhea A. White, Exceptional Human Experience Network *"Barbara Hand Clow grabs hold of a very volatile mix of topics: politics, astrology, traditional religions, hard science, sex, and cutting-edge metaphysics. She wastes no time establishing the ground for this book: the future of our lives as conscious beings and the critical choice we face right now right here in our everyday lives. We can live as zombies or we can create powerful lives by choosing to exercise our free will in remembering who we are. . . .

Book SynopsisA comprehensive examination of sudden, accidental “time slips”--shifting from ordinary reality into the past or future• Shares detailed accounts from people who have experienced time slips, including the author’s own experiences, as well as the practices of shamans, yoga masters, and Samadhi mystics who use trance-like meditative states to travel outside normal space and time • Offers step-by-step exercises to prepare you to experience time shifts, to help set them up, and to enhance the experience when you have slipped through time • Examines criticisms of and scientific support for this phenomenon, debunking claims that time slips are delusions or remembrances of past lives and showing that they may be related to energy vortices, black holes, or astral travel Every now and then somebody reports stepping out of normal time and space. It doesn’t seem to matter where they live or their background--the veil of ordinary reality drops and they suddenly slip into the past or future, usually seamlessly and unknowingly, experiencing a temporary and accidental form of time travel. Sharing detailed accounts from people who have experienced time slips and shifts between realities, including his own experiences, Von Braschler examines what their stories have in common to establish the pattern behind how these sudden slips in time occur. He examines criticisms of and scientific support for this phenomenon, debunking claims that time slips are delusions, implanted memories, or remembrances of past lives and showing that they may be related to energy vortices, tears in the fabric of our reality, black holes, astral travel, or light body movements. Studying reliable models from both the West and the East, he compares these excursions with shamanic journeying and the practices of yoga masters and Samadhi mystics, who use trance-like meditative states to travel outside normal space and time. Exploring the work of Einstein and other physicists, the author also examines the different speed with which time passes in ordinary reality and during time shifts--people will find that only a few minutes has elapsed for a time-shift experience that appeared to take hours. Offering step-by-step exercises to prepare you to experience time shifts, to help set them up, and to enhance the experience when you have slipped through time, the author provides a road map allowing anyone to explore shifts in time and space and expand their awareness beyond ordinary reality.Trade Review“Von Braschler is back with THE book the paranormal world has been waiting for! Braschler walks us through a world of possibilities and tests the paradigms of what we think we know while examining what mysteries of our human experience are still waiting to be revealed.” * Dave Schrader, host of Darkness Radio and Travel Channel’s The Holzer Files *“Time Shifts is a remarkable book, full of thought-provoking stories, fascinating information on how time travel works, and valuable exercises to help you experiment with alternate realities. Like all of Von Braschler’s books, Time Shifts is well researched and contains a wealth of practical information. Highly recommended.” * Richard Webster, author of Llewellyn’s Complete Book of Divination *“Fascinating book. Time Shifts provides specific exercises that can teach readers how to experience this ‘time shift’ or ‘quick switch.’ Highly recommended.” * Albert Amoa Soria, Ph.D., author of Awaken the Power Within *"A unique and inherently fascinating study, Time Shifts: Experiences of Slipping into the Past and Future is an extraordinarily thoughtful and thought-provoking read throughout. While of special and particular interest to students of out-of-body experiences and shamanism, as well as students of unexplained mysteries, Time Shifts is recommended for community, college, and university library Metaphysical Studies collections." * Midwest Book Review *"Real-life experiences such as these combine with Von Braschler's well-researched investigation to make his book the most credible examination of the subject. Having opened the door to this eternal mystery, a final chapter in Time Shifts directs readers through it in a series of exercises, which can make time travelers of us all." * New Dawn Magazine *Table of ContentsFOREWORD by Frank Joseph INTRODUCTION Little Sidesteps Out of Time ONEClassic Stories of Time Shifts TWO Possible Explanations for Time SlipsTHREEOne Confused Twelve-Year-Old Boy FOUR Walking through Time Down Main Street FIVE In a Dark Room SIX A Brother and Sister Reunion SEVEN Time Shifts Experienced by Writer/Explorer Frank JosephEIGHT Lucid Dreaming NINE When a Dream Is More than a Dream TEN Experiencing Time and Different DimensionsELEVEN The East’s Approach to Time TravelTWELVE The Shamanic Experience of Time Travel THIRTEEN Common Misconceptions about Time FOURTEEN Traveling at the Speed of Light through All Time Barriers FIFTEEN Moving in the Light SIXTEEN Our Physical World Is Energized and ConsciousSEVENTEENSome Practical Personal Exercises Afterword Bibliography Index About the Author

Book Synopsis''I was musing on Singapore in all its affluent glory still having shrines for the dead on every street corner during The Festival of the Hungry Ghosts''. Then I was musing on how the socially mobile of modern western society eschew death rites and grieving in the name of ''holding it together'' and being progressive. I thought of which civilizations are falling and which are rising again, and wondered whether acknowledging death and the ancestors is a vital part of a maintaining personal identity and our place in society. I remember how my grieving father mourned for all the information he had relied on his deceased wife remembering; information which was now lost. I recalled Michael Crichton''s words If you don''t know (your family''s) history, then you don''t know anything. You are a leaf that doesn''t know it is part of a tree.'' Then I thought maybe someone should write about the cults of the ancestors and death, perhaps an anthology, perhaps cross relate experiences of loss to personal spirituality and magick and history. I know that years of working with the dead in the name of art and spirituality, didn''t prepare me for the death of my mother. What helped me was the advice of someone from a long tradition of working with the ancestors. I think that collecting the experiences of spiritual practitioners in their working with grief and death is part of a living and necessary tradition that will give respect to the dead and strength, identity and support to our own personal spirituality.'' Within this book are rituals, stories, traditions and experiences of magicians'' scholars and artists who work with death. Some of the contributors such as Nema, Mogg Morgan, Louis Martine and Nevill Drury (to name but a few) have helped define contemporary transformative spirituality. Others are less well known but just as learned. As there should be in such a collection there is comedy, anger confrontation and practicality. This anthology is about who we are, and where we come from. It is also about how we change. A Contemporary Western Book of the Dead contains voices and visions that acknowledge our past, feed our present and guide the direction of our future.
