Adventures Beyond the Body: How to Experience Out-of-Body Travel Paperback – Illustrated, June 13, 1996

This is one of my favorite books on out of body explorations and there are many things I like about it.I like the way the material is arranged. The book begins with excerpts from the author's journal and interesting stories from his own out-of-body explorations as well as learnings. It isn't just about getting out of the body, but about exploring different dimensions with higher and higher vibrations and apart from the fun and adventure, the learnings revolve around one's spiritual evolution which is based on facing one's fears, dropping them, and gaining greater and greater liberation and expansion in consciousness through the realization of one's immortal and indestructible spirit.I like that the author is sharing not only his experiences, but also his learnings and realizations along the way, pointing out that not only is the universe thought-responsive and we tend to experience that which matches our state of consciousness, but also that we may request to experience as formless vibration, as the forms we experience are projections of our (and consensus) consciousness, and just like in the dreams we dream while we sleep, where our emotions are expressed through the symbolism we have subconsciously accepted, so it happens during out of body experiences - and this becomes more obvious as one enters higher stated of consciousness, of higher vibrations."Reality is relative. Experienced reality is relative to the personal energy frequency of the observer. We experience the energy frequencies closest to our personal density or vibratory rate. Consciousness is a form of non-physical energy extending its influence into matter through the use of biological vehicles. Our current perception that consciousness is within the physical body is incorrect. Consciousness exists at a much higher frequency or wavelength than matter. Consciousness is a continuum of nonphysical energy extending its awareness through multiple frequencies(dimensions) of the universe."I have found this books useful also because due to extensive experience and dealing with all kinds of situations, the author has found the way to successfully resolve the situation where an inexperienced person may become stuck, and the reader, armed with information and tips that worked for the author and many other people, can cut the learning curve.The author then shares common challenges that people experience and the ways to overcome them. He then shares varieties of techniques for preparing for the out of body experience and techniques for consciously separating from the physical body. One simple technique involves continuously repeating the affirmation as you drift to sleep: "Now I have a fully conscious out of body experience. Now I'm out of my body!"You will find lots of great tips on dealing with different challenges and controlling the experience after you find yourself out of body.All in all, the book is easy and fun to read and it's immensely helpful. I have read all kinds of books on out of body experiences, but this is my favorite.

As a voracious reader well into their senior years my interests lately has drifted into the esoteric. I admit to becoming fascinated with time travel, parallel worlds and astral projection and astral travel. While browsing on line I discovered this very interesting and informative 292 page soft cover book (Adventures beyond the body: How to experience out-of-body travel by William Buhlman) on Amazon for a bargain price.Even though this book is more than 20 years old (published in 1996); nevertheless, I found the most of the information is still relevant today in 2021. The unique and unusual experiences of the author in his personal research into astral projection and travel will intrigue you. One of the things that made this book appealing to me was the way the author combined modern day scientific discoveries and esoteric theories along with his astral travel experiences.He relates discoveries made in cosmology, quantum physics, and Einstein’s theory of relativity in an attempt to explain how it is possible to move into other realm like astral travel. This makes for fascinating reading.The book is organized into two parts. The first part is about the author’s personal experiences with out-of-body research and his meetings while astral traveling. The second part he covers the scientific relationship and explains how to achieve astral projection and travel.First off, anyone interested in learning how to achieve out-of-body skills will effort and regular practice to succeed. In fact, the author emphasizes that at least 30 days of every day practice is suggested if you want to achieve astral projection and travel.I really liked this book and I am in the process of practicing the techniques taught in this book to achieve my personal goal of astral travel. If you are interested in a scientific approach to astral travel you may want to check out this very informative book.Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Chair/Seated Tai Chi/Qigong/Yoga stretching for seniors and the physically challenged).

This book has been one of my slowest reads ever.Not because it is difficult or challenging to read, but because I was fully invested in what I was taking in.There are aspects of the book that really worked for me and some that did not.But learning to have OOB experiences is a personal path and I don’t believe there is only one way.I have had one OOB experience since reading this book and I am going to keep practicing until I get it reliably.

Great book on Astral Projection. Loved the journal entries of experiences.

This is the best book about OBE i ever read. William Buhlman gives us the keys to have our own experiences safely. What a great gift for humanity and exploration of our true self.

Ik heb de boek alleen tweedehands gekocht omdat ik het dan een dag eerder binnen zou krijgen inplaats van een nieuwe te bestellen en het dan maandag zou binnen hebben. Verder is het tot nu toe een interessant boek. Maar voor een boek dat in “zeer goede” staat had moeten zijn, vind ik het eerder goed tot gemiddeld.

Non sono riuscito ad avere esperienze out-of-body, ma il libro è stata una forte fonte di ispirazione. Lo consiglio associandolo alla trascrizione dei sogni e all'esecuzione assidua delle tecniche descritte prima di addormentarsi
