Hello everyone this is Gene and welcome to the second episode of Astral Doorway
this video I'm making is because someone from the astral projection reddit
called amelia requested that I do a sort of reflection on one of my out of body experiences
as she's going to do an animation on it I believe so thank you amelia in this obe I confirmed it
and the legitimacy of it through going out of my body walking around my house
seeing something and then going back to my body and going back to that place to confirm what I saw
so i'll be describing that experience now this happened around eight years ago i had been
practicing lucid dreaming meditation and astral projection for a couple of years at the time
but more recently prior to the experience that we're talking about here i had only just
recently got into astral projection because for me i first got into lucid dreaming then meditation
and then astral projection so this was one of my first out of body experiences
back then i didn't really have much doubts about my outer body experiences
and I didn't think about confirming them really I believed in them i knew they were real you
know through coming out of body in the experiences themselves I felt wholeheartedly as i still do now
that it is real especially because I had a lot of lucid dreams beforehand dreams being in
essence just hallucinations you know there's not that much between a dream and a lucid dream
the only difference is that you are aware of the dream, you're aware of the hallucination
that you're making in the moment or I should i say you're aware that your subconscious is making them
now you're probably thinking to yourself "come on you can't just know whether you're in
the astral through just feeling right surely" but yes really it is like that especially for your
experience it's just the same thing as saying you know you're in the physical right now right?
if you try and remember a dream you know that was a dream right and you know this
is the physical well you know it's the same for the astral you know you're in the astral
but of course you know if you're quite new to this and still wondering how you can tell there are a
few indicators you can use you know one of them is if you're in a dream you'll find you can easily
easily manipulate the environment you can remove the sun from the sky if you want or you can add
planets to it which I've done for fun many of times, you can move buildings, but in the astral
you cannot do that because the astral has almost physical like qualities
and things exist there with a life of their own it is very much connected to the physical realm
in terms of their relationship, the dimension of the physical and the dimension of the astral
don't just exist independently completely they are they are linked in intimate and mysterious ways
so of course another way you can tell this is by confirming your experience
which let me say is a lot more harder and i consider myself quite
lucky to have this experience, especially considering i didn't intend it I didn't intend
to do it at all it's hard to do because the astral plane is a vast multi-dimensional world
exponentially larger than the physical world the physical earth you need to have
a very refined will and you'll often find yourself propelled into unexpected and unintended worlds
which may not be physical which may not be close to physical earth at all so that's
the problem it's all about tuning yourself to a dimension that is close to physical earth
you need to project your consciousness into a plane of existence which is close or parallel
to earth us so one needs to be very grounded in the physical, you need to
you know if you're really determined to do this sort of experiment and you know try not to be too
involved in your mind with fantasies like fantasy worlds or heavens or hells
you know just be here grounded here and now in the physical
so you know and I will give a little exercise uh at the end of the video here just to give
a bit more tips on how one could possibly do that but as I've said I've never intended to
confirm my experiences I've only had a few and this was one of the most significant for me
i just don't look for these type of experiences because once i'm out in the astral
there is so many things to do a lot of things i'm much more interested
in pursuing and as many of you know once you're in the astral
you just you think of so many things of what to do you become overwhelmed and excited and i
yeah but i know a lot of people want to find that kind of experience where they can confirm it
for themselves and it is very good for your subconscious mind to rid yourself of any
doubt air but more on that later so in this experience it happened on a summer's day i
remember very clearly because it was very hot and we don't get a lot of sunny days here in the UK
and I was very tired i didn't get much sleep the night before I'd done a lot of work in the morning
so by midday I basically collapsed on my bed for a nap and quickly fell asleep back then you
know I went to sleep very late so I must I think I went to sleep around four in the morning and woke
up at 8 because my mum woke me up and i had to have to do things with my annoying family who
who's bossing me around so yeah I went back to bed after I was done with all that
I also did some college work i believe in the morning so I was stuck in my room for a few hours
before this happened um so when I fell asleep very soon
I felt vibrations and got up out of my body as I regularly would, no fancy techniques
no rope method no rolling out etc i simply just got up as I would have with my physical body
and also just to add you know my physical body wasn't in any fancy position in fact I was on
my bed on my belly I scrolled out sprawled out on my bed on top of the covers i was on my bed sideways
you know i literally just collapsed i was so tired, so as i got up i immediately noticed
a shimmering golden light filling the air of my house out of my room it was
it was beautiful I'd never seen my house like this I immediately
saw you know it must have been a hot day and this is the the solar rays you know entering the house
this is like a solar version of my house and there was you know I the house I lived in at
the time had big windows so a lot of sunlight came through and it was just beautiful to see
as I looked around my room, my room was exactly the same way as it was in the physical
before I went to sleep so I knew you know I was I was on a dimension that was basically parallel
to physical earth I could see myself sleeping peacefully collapsed on the bed I didn't want
to look at myself for too long to try and I didn't want to overthink anything so I went
out of my door and carried on just appreciating this amazing luminosity of gold in the air
when I inspected it closer I could see tiny lights glimmering in the air like, like someone threw
fairy dust just everywhere or kind of like a nightlight bugs I'm not sure what they're called
yes it was just beautiful i was touching the walls I was I was seeing how the light brought
everything to life and it was just wonderful i was becoming so fascinated with this beautiful
light that I walked down my corridor and just in complete awe of what i was seeing
you know sometimes when you project particularly at night things can be a little
darker and your subconscious can be a little more fearful, fearfully suggestive so to speak, uh but
this was definitely not possible here that's why there was no way i was going to be scared in this
experience you know back then i was i was quite new so i think i had some fears
but this particular experience was just full of joy i loved it and it was full of wonder um
i must have done that for five to ten minutes just looking around like um i was enchanted
so as i walk down my corridor uh please also take into account that i have to go past around
three rooms in the house is quite a large house in order to reach the stairways which go down which
the stairway which goes downstairs also keep in mind i had been in my room for hours prior to
going to sleep and i lived with a back then i lived with a lot of people in the house i had
quite a big family we always had different guests over and i generally you know wasn't interested or
knew when my family had people over so yes we always had different people around
and the house at the time was quite big so you generally can't hear what's going on downstairs
anyway i eventually walked to the top of the stairs looking like some this bedazzled child uh
i took a few steps down the stairs when i noticed my sister sitting on the living room sofa sat next
to her friend now let me say my sister is very, she's a social butterfly she could have had around
seven to ten different friends in the house who lived nearby in the village and
yes i saw her sitting there next to her friend and i did not know they were that i didn't know what
she was doing she could have been in her room she could have been out she could have been
here at college uh at work i don't know, but i saw her there and i saw my sister there browsing on
her phone in her pajamas and i remember very distinctly that she had a blue packet of cheese
and onion walkers crisps, if you're from the us or other countries i think that's the equivalent of
lays, that's a crisp packet lays anyway, since this was completely new information to me
i decided in that moment to take a mental note and impress this scene in my memory
and then i intentionally went back to my body i didn't walk back i just thought about it i and
i woke up you know that's all you have to do if you want to go back to your body you simply just
intend it and you will go back to your body i immediately got up out of bed in my physical
body and ran to the stairway and i saw the exact same scene i had my sister in her pajamas
on her phone with the blue packet of crisps sat next to her friend, honestly
i can still feel the shock and the excitement and just how jaw-dropped i was at
what i was seeing every time i think back you know it's just such a happy memory and i feel so
lucky to have had that experience, i literally confirmed an obe for myself without trying
i know this isn't like some elaborate test where someone puts a number in a box
you go out of body to try and guess it or something so this might not sound like the
most exciting uh astral projection confirmation but for me it was and it still is because i know
myself in my experience that i saw something i knew i couldn't have known, the scene
was exactly the way i saw it uh all the way down to how my sister was curled up sideways
on the sofa facing her friend and her friend was sitting to the left side of her
facing forwards at our tv screen it was exactly the way i saw it i was just elated honestly
so as i said i've never really been
interested in confirming my actual experiences and after this experience i definitely haven't
pursued them since it has happened similar things for a couple of times
and actually i've heard a lot of people who are experienced in astral projection
usually go through a sort of natural confirming stage also you know where they have an experience
where they just seem to confirm the experience spontaneously without intention
as if it was some sort of subconscious mechanism to help you get to the next stage of freeing
yourself from the doubts or skepticism that, that actual projection isn't real
so yeah although it's not a necessary thing to do it really does help you become more grounded
in overcoming any sort of disbelief or doubt or speculation, it's an empowering
experience, if you want to have a similar experience for yourself you can ask someone
in your house to hide something in a room or change the furniture around in there then just
restrain yourself and don't ever go in that room until you project yourself into there, if you have
a desire to to see in the room i mean that's good because you have a subconscious urge to go there
you have to feel the desire and use your willpower and intent to go inside the room when you're next
out of body, having this intent as well should also help you come out of body more easily because
often when people come out of body they overthink the process when they're in the vibrational stage
or something when really just think about what you want to do next just focus on coming out
so it's good to have a goal in that sense, a direction of where you want to go, alternatively
what you could also do is simply once you're out of body, just look outside your window uh and
look at your street hopefully you know live on a street with cars in front and you can count how
many cars there are parked outside their colours whether there are big ones or small ones
etc and then simply just wake up go back to your window and have a look if they are the exact
cars that are there that could be another way you could do it those types of things
you could try if you want to set up this kind of experiment for yourself
so that was this episode on confirming experiences of course there can always be much more to it
