Astral projection. A complete guide

There are some aspects of the astral dimension and the projection process that are very complicated. This series of articles attempts to shed some light on the subject and hopefully explain what it is all about. The theories and conclusions in this treatise are largely drawn from my own projection experience. The goal of this treatise is to develop a greater understanding and new, simpler and more effective techniques for projection. The ideas, theories, and techniques discussed here are constantly under development and are subject to modification and change as new discoveries and insights come to light. What is the astral dimension? The astral is the closest dimension to the physical. It overlaps and permeates the world like a huge mental net, capturing and holding all thoughts. Its content is created by the collective consciousness of the world mind. It contains all the thoughts, memories, fantasies and dreams of every living being in the world. In it, the laws of sympathetic attraction, or like attracts like, cause this ocean of mental stuff to stratify and settle into layers or pools. These thought pools are more commonly called astral planes, astral worlds, astral subplanes, or astral realms. The astral dimension is composed of astral matter and is aptly described as mental matter. It is extremely sensitive to thought and can be molded into any form. These creations can be so perfect as to be indistinguishable from reality. The best way to explain this mental stuff is to make a comparison between astral matter and photographic film not exposed at high speed. When this film is exposed to light, focused by the camera lens, a perfect image of reality is instantly burned into the film by the chemical reaction of the film to the light. When astral matter is exposed to thought, focused by the lens of the mind, a perfect image of reality is instantaneously formed from the astral matter of the mind by the reaction of the astral matter to the thought. The complexity and duration of any creation in the astral dimension depends largely on the strength of the mind that is creating.
