What is Astral Projection?
- Thread starter Bohemian
- Start date
People's spirits stepping out of their bodies to have a nice walk. Sometimes people can see the spirits.
Also see "Out of body experiences."
Sounds like fun, no?

Astral projection is the spiritual body leaving the material body voluntarily for a limited time. Some people are able to do this.

Its not witchcraft. I am trying to get good at it. It should be really fun. Nothing bad can happen to you during an astral projection.

True, it's little more than a guided visualization -- much like having a dream while conscious. I've done this.Asimov said:

All Sold Out For Jesus
man is made up of three parts>>
body (flesh)
soul (will, personality, etc)
spirit (spiritual)
the flesh and spirit are temples for our souls. During our time of living the soul clings to the flesh, after we die it clings to the spirit
Paul teaches us that we are tri-part beings
1Th:5:23: And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
All must be kept blameless until Jesus's return. We are not allowed to use our spiritual form in anyway.
Astral Projection ( out of body experience ) can be controlled by one involved in witchcraft. It is unlawful in Gods eyes to use our spirit bodies in such a way.
You have probably heard of people mentioning being unable to move while drowsing, this is actually the result of the presence / attack / interaction from a human being (witch) in A/P.
A witch on a broom is a symbol of a person in A/P. flight symbolizes the special abilities of our spiritual forms. the broom symbolizes the link creating A/P.
God sometimes allows out of body experiences in christians, in instances where he is teaching or revealing something to someone.
2Co:12:2: I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth) such an one caught up to the third heaven.
2Co:12:3: And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth)

Astral Projection? It's scientifically not demonstrable, that's what it is! If anyone can demonstrate it by reading three didgits off a card placed on top of a wardrobe, or by enetering a locked room and telling me the colour of the carpet or similar let me know and I will tell you how you can contribute to ongoing parapsychological research in the area.
Forget the morality of it, let's establish if it really exists first huh?

Is that 'scientifically demonstratable'?
Moses parting the red sea.
Is that 'scientifically demonstratable'?
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego walking through fire.
Is that 'scientifically demonstratable'?
I'm not casting a snare or anything, but what I'm trying to say is that if it is written according to God's word it is good enough for me.
By the way, Astral projection is the modern day term for a 'controlled' out of body experience.

I think we can be pretty sure that the experience of AP is real, CJ. It's the correctness of particular interpretations of it that we're quibbling over. I personally don't know that either the usual supernaturalistic mumbo-jumbo or the reductionist materialist interpretation is correct.

No, because it didn't happen.Acronyte said:
Moses didn't part the red sea, that's a typo. It was the Sea of Reeds. But anyways, that didn't happen either.
Nope, didn't happen either. Honestly, that's like believing that Icharus really did fly and get too close to the sun.
By the way, Astral Projection is the modern day term for "superstition". It's not real, because it doesn't happen. The Bible may say it happens, but that doesn't mean it does.

Agred 100%, and very well said. Sue Blackmore wrote abook on it; I have it somewhere. The best book from a how to perpsective is Sylvan Muldoon's Projection of the Astral Body. I agree the experience is real, and l remain open minded on cause, but i suspect it is explicable rather than supernatural.
I'll review the parapsychological journal literature and see what latest studies suggest - I'm prett sure there were some fairly good critiques of Sues book in the JSPR.cj x
