The Difference Between Astral Projection and Astral Travelling
Here's a great article you should check out about the exciting subject of Astral Projection. It explains and classifies the different types of Astral Projection there are.
Some people will have heard about Astral Projection, Out of Body Experiences, or Remote Viewing, but it is unlikely that many have had a "real" conscious experience, even though most of us do it at least once every night.
To avoid confusion it is important to understand the difference between Astral Travelling and Astral Projection. Many forms of visualisation are associated with Astral Travelling, which is a process of projecting the "consciousness" into visual scenes - i.e. in meditation or temple work - with the effect of "feeling" we are actually "there". Astral Projection is the process of projecting our "Astral counterpart" with the effect of "knowing" we are actually "there".
There is a great difference between the two, for Astral Travelling does not remove us from the physical body, but Astral Projection does.
Most experiences of Astral Projection are unconscious, the person only becoming aware of them in "dream states", such as memories of flying etc., but there are those who have had a genuine "conscious" experience, even if only very briefly.
On such occasions there is absolutely no doubt in their minds that they were actually there, and many would argue that they were indeed physically present, for the senses generally do not seem to be impaired. It is interesting to note that those who have "consciously" experienced a projection cannot be persuaded that it was just a figment of their imagination or a dream, for it would be like trying to persuade the reader that they are not "actually" reading this now.
