Astral Travel – (793)

Introduction

This article is an attempt to describe what astral travel, astral unfolding or astral projection is and of course to provide you with some practices to experiment for yourself.


Astral Travel Definition Excerpts

The following excerpts describe what astral travel is and how it can be done.

“Before we go into these ideas in more detail, let me say this. To an occultist, the act of astral projecting entails transferring one’s consciousness to the astral body and exploring the astral plane. “

Excerpt from: “What is Astral Projection”, by Donald Degracia



“It is not dangerous to project the astral body because everyone goes out in the astral body while sleeping. Whoever wants to awaken consciousness during sleep must know the key of “discernment.”
While sleeping, every human being moves in the internal worlds with the consciousness asleep. The soul, dressed in its astral body, abandons the physical body while sleeping. This is how the Etheric body can repair the dense body.

When the soul enters the physical body, then we wake up from natural sleep.

While in the internal worlds the souls occupy themselves in the same daily chores; therefore they buy and sell, like in the physical world. The souls of the living and of those who have died live together during sleep. In the internal worlds we see everything as we do in the physical world: the same sun, the same clouds, the same houses of the city, everything is the same.

Now our Gnostic disciples will understand why the deceased do not accept they are dead. Now our disciples will comprehend why the souls of the living buy and sell, work, etc, while sleeping.

By traveling in the astral body is how we know the mysteries of life and death. Every human being goes out in the astral body during sleep. We can know the great mysteries of life and death by awakening consciousness during sleep. There is a key in order to awaken consciousness while sleeping: the key of discernment.

Let’s see: if you are going down a street and you encounter a friend, or see objects that catch your attention, take a little jump with the intention of floating; it’s logical that if you float it’s because you are outside of your physical body; nevertheless, if you do not float it is because you are in the physical body.

It so happens that we act in the internal worlds, during sleep, in the same way that we act in the body of flesh and bone; and if we add to this that we see everything there in the same way that we see it here in the physical world; then we will comprehend that only if we manage to fly will we awaken consciousness so as to realize that we are in the astral body.

This exercise is practiced constantly while in the vigil state and in the presence of anything that is curious. What we do during the vigil state is repeated while we sleep. If we do this practice while sleeping, the result will be that when we jump we will end up floating in the astral body, then our consciousness will awaken and full of happiness we will say: I am in the astral body.

In this way we could head towards the Holy Gnostic Church in order to speak personally with the Angels, Archangels, Seraphim, Prophets, Masters, etc., and in this way we will be able to receive instructions from the Great Masters of the White Lodge, in this way we will be able to travel in the astral body through the infinite.

We do not need to destroy the mind with so many books and theories. In the internal worlds we can receive the teachings of the Masters. When awakening from natural sleep, the disciples must make an effort to remember everything they saw and heard during sleep.

It is necessary that our disciples learn how to interpret their own inner experiences. By studying the Book of Daniel, in the Bible, you will be able to learn to interpret your inner experiences.

Sleep and memory are powers that allow us to know the great mysteries of life and death.

Dreams are astral experiences. Dreams are real.”

Excerpt from: “The Supreme Message”, by Samael Aun Weor.


Summary

Astral travel is about consciously transferring one’s consciousness into the astral body, that is if one has an astral body, and then leaving the physical body to explore the astral plane with the astral body. If on the other hand if one does not have an astral body, astral travel is to consciously transfer one’s consciousness into the astral plane to explore the astral plane as consciousness.

The best and most natural moment to project one’s consciousness into the astral plane is just before falling asleep. In the moments just before falling asleep the ties between the physical body and the astral body loosen and if we are aware enough we can take advantage of this moment and move our consciousness into the astral body.

None the less astral travel is a very natural activity that many people in the world have experienced at one point in their life. To cultivate it consciously on the other hand can be a marvellous tool to understand more about life, especially about where we go when we die and the why of many things that here in the physical world, are still a mystery.

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this.  In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...

The Divine Mother is there when we Comprehend - (5780)

A very wonderful instructor gave a talk on Koradi Radio a few days ago and he said something that really impacted. He said that when we comprehend something, our Divine Mother is present right in that moment of comprehension. Especially if it is do with an "I" we are working on. He went on to say that he knows that She is there when we comprehend something. This for me was marvellous, because I have felt the same, though I was never fully sure. This is great news when we want to build a connection to our Divine Mother and doubt when is present. We can know that She is present when we are trying to comprehend. I feel that She really wants us to comprehend the "I" and further more She helps us to comprehend. We can truly ask for Her help to comprehend something and the help will come in such a natural way that we will tend to overlook it.   She is better than Google...  End (5780).
