Astral Projection - Is it wrong?

[elizabetht]

Just say NO!!!

Stay away from anything that is not of God. This is nothing to dabble in; trust me, I know what I am talking about.

Simple answer. Yes it is.

I was a child 6 years old when I had my first out of body experience, I certainly didn't look to go about inducing it.

Does that make me evil and a sinner?

As far I'm concerned God gave us this gift, and people wouldn't have these experiences if God didn't want us to have them or be capable of them!

Anyway my experience as a child was going to sleep, hearing a high pitched ringing sound which was very common for me as a child for some reason, and then getting out of bed, going down the stairs into the living room and finding my mother watching TV. I called out to my mother and she couldn't hear me, or see me and was not responding to me. This annoyed me and I started crying & screaming at my mother for ignoring me, then all of a sudden I woke up in bed. I immediately ran down stairs to find my mother watching TV in the living room no doubt , and began to tell her off for ignoring me. She tried to convince me that I must have been dreaming however I was adamant that it was REAL.

It was the most real life like thing I had experienced and later in life when I heard about out of body experiences, I was convinced that this is what I experienced.

I have had lucid dreams before, they are very clear dreams that you can manipulate with your thoughts. However what I experienced as a child was MUCH MORE REAL and authentic that I thought it was real life.

All I'm saying is I don't buy this whole 'it's evil' viewpoint, not one iota!

Were the following not deemed evil by Christianity and the Church in the past and even still today: Science and Medicine?

I am a Roman Catholic and I don't believe that anything is wrong or evil with spiritual experiences such as Astral Projection and that God is the only one that has power over me and gave us all this gift. Not just Christians but those from all religions and walks of life. Are they being evil when experiencing such things unintentionally or intentionally.

As long as you are following the 10 commandments, I don't think there is anything inherently evil about astral projection or lucid dreaming or dreaming in general!

Grace to you,

Can you confirm that your experience was of God?

Here's what I mean.

Your experience sounds spiritual but not all spirtual encounters are of God.

New Age is not worshiping Satan. It is worshiping the "god" within you.

worshiping anyone or anything other then the One True God, is satan worship.....

that was lucifers deal, he was worshiping himself above God....

Grace to you,

I wanted to address this seperate issue with you in another post.

Do you feel that keeping the commandments or keeping a Religious practice Justifies you in the sight of God?

Paul himself said this;

In Transcendental Meditation, I use to practice this. This was a big thing in the early 70's. It is a practiced "art" of leaving your body.

Only time I want to leave this body, is when I going to be with The Lord!!!
