Astral Projection for enlightenment? Help me understand
2025.01.22 20:48 chief-executive-doge Astral Projection for enlightenment? Help me understand
I’m seeking guidance to better understand some profound experiences I’ve had after a long journey of spiritual awakening. It’s been over a decade of searching for answers after a dark night of the soul caused by a lot of suffering and a paranormal experience me and my family lived in a house. My path eventually led me to Robert Monroe’s Gateway Tapes, where I explored astral projection (AP) as a means to seek answers. While I felt the vibrations a few times, I never had a successful AP and eventually stopped practicing.
Recently, everything changed after a Kundalini awakening during an Ayahuasca ceremony. It healed so much within me and showed me the universe's true nature—love and oneness. Since then, I’ve been meditating daily and feel deeply connected spiritually.
Here’s where I need your insights:
My AP/OBE Experience
A few days after my Ayahuasca ceremony, I unintentionally had my first successful out-of-body experience (OBE) but didn't last much (basically I wandered through my house for like 1 minute). Recently, I intentionally induced another that lasted more. Here’s what happened:
- I woke up at 5 a.m., stayed awake for half an hour, then went back to sleep. In that state of half-sleep, I felt the Kundalini energy rise from my lower spine to my cervical spine, where it “stuck.” The vibrations were intense and accompanied by a loud ringing in my ears.
- It was kind of uncomfortable, but decided to relax and endure the energy. It worked—the vibrations rose to my skull (crown chakra I believe), and I successfully exited my body.
I ended up in an empty room with a TV. The screen had a documentary and a voice told me “Welcome, Alejandro” (not my name), and I felt the presence of Jesus speaking to me (at least that's what I thought there). Confused, specially by being called a wrong name, I left the room and returned to my body.
These experiences left me with so many unanswered questions. I would deeply appreciate it if you could share your wisdom and insights with me.
Here are some of my questions so far:
- Why does Kundalini energy seem more active early in the morning, especially when I’m tired and recently woken up? Should I focus on meditating during these hours? Is this related to energy flows during early morning or does it has more to do with the state of my mind (e.g circadian rhythm)?
- When we astral project, are we exploring another dimension? The subtle differences I noticed in my house during my experience make me wonder if the astral realm is a mirrored version of our world with slight variances. When traveling to other dimensions, is it possible to achieve the same insights or experiences that are typically associated with DMT and Ayahuasca journeys?
- How meaningful are AP experiences on the path to enlightenment? Do they provide valuable insights, or are they symbolic like dreams? Should I interpret experiences like the “TV room” as messages with deeper meanings from my higher self?
- Much of the literature I’ve read advises against meditating with the expectation of specific experiences. However, could these types of experiences be considered meaningful steps toward enlightenment? Are they reflective of what meditation for the purpose of enlightenment—such as Kundalini yoga—should look like? Or do these experiences align more closely with the principles of dream yoga?

So, I'm using Mod Manager 2. I've installed quite a lot of mods (out of 120), and I'm having a problem. The game starts normally, but after pressing "new game" the game somehow crashes without a message on the desktop. Do you know what this could be related to?

Gonna try multi streaming on Manyvids, Chaturbate and Camsoda tonight! I know MV and CB pretty well but it’s my first time on cam soda. Any tips? Anything I should know about TOS? I see no incest but that mean no step mommy/sister RP at all, or just no step family at all? Any rules on pee content? Thanks so much!

2025.01.22 20:48 abmangone I mean this with all due respect, but who even is this & why is she basically the only person in the main “group” who has zero side story or real role in the plot?
 | I just finished my first watch through, & I can’t understand what exactly her role is meant to be. She’s like the only person in the cast who seemingly has no real purpose. The only thing I even remember about her was her hyping up Maddy to beat Cassie up. I had to look up her name bc I didn’t even remember it. submitted by abmangone to euphoria [link] [comments] |

So I got the exec F8c lightning and one of the right guns never fires and missiles won't arm. Yes, there is missiles in it, but the little white bar won't fill when I try to target something with missiles. Is anyone else having this bug? I've swapped weapons on it and everything and it's driving me insane on the amount of troubleshooting I've done to try to fix it.

2025.01.22 20:48 prying_bbgirl Is it normal when you are in a romantic relationship that your world revolves around your partner?
Like significantly lesser time for (close) friends and would rather spend most of your time with your partner? And if you hangout with these close friends, it's 'matic you have your partner with you and in most occasions?

Okay, but seriously, how is Keanu Reeves not the president of Earth by now? The man is literally a walking good vibe. Meanwhile, people out here talking about "toxic fandoms" like Keanu wouldn’t solve that with a smile and a hug. Can we get an updoot for this wholesome king? 👑

I had a halfway house sugar daddy
He let me use his extra free android phone because I destroyed mine in a manic episode
He was also my buddy for running errands because I’m bad at making friends.
When I got my phone and privileges back, I distanced myself. He was like “I thought this was real! There’s a 30 year age gap, but I felt something there!”

2025.01.22 20:48 S_Shadow77 An ignorant mistake I made when I was younger. How to rectify?
When I was younger and in college, I went through a phase where I questioned many things, including religion. During a conversation about beliefs, I regretfully said that I sometimes have doubts about the existence of Allah (Astaghfirullah). Someone told me that such a statement was enough to take me out of the fold of Islam. I deeply regret ever saying this, and I have since sought forgiveness through Istighfar. Is there anything else I need to do to fully rectify this?
