Mastering Astral Projection vs Astral Dynamics

While defiantly not as technical or detailed as his other book, Astral Dynamics, Mastering Astral Projection provides the techniques in a much more structured format. I had owned Astral Dynamics for over a year, periodically doing some of the exercises, but unable to make any real progress. By the end of the first month of using this new book my energy body was buzzing all day long and even my normal dreams were being regularly transformed into OBEs. The affirmations plus the additional exit techniques make this book unique from its predecessor, but most important for me was the day by day structure which forced me to take the time and do the work needed to be able to consciously project. If you have natural iron clad will power, then defiantly just buy Astral Dynamics. Otherwise, it doesn't get any better then Mastering Astral Projection.

Great information on OBE techniques

I have a collection of over 200 books on OBE/Astral projection and Robert Bruce's pioneering work "Astral Dynamics" is in my top three personal favourites.Robert has a very engaging, sympathetically warm and thoroughly empirical writing style which is most welcome. I did not think that this sequel dealing with astrasl projection could match the quality of the original.I also have a wee bit of hesitation in promoting or advocating "programmes" for developing OBE and, indeed, any other psychic discipline since, as a reasonably experienced "astral projector" I am only too aware of my own "laziness" when attempting to keep to a daily programme in spiritual development. "Sloth" I would suggest,is particulalry prevalent in the pursuit of any spiritual discipline.I imagine my own failings in this regard are quite widespread and I just wondered how popular this daily programmed tome would be. But I am delighted after reading this book. It is absolutely choc-a-block with refeshing, very readable insights and concise "running commentaries" on the whole process. Very valuable techniques and observations for the aspiring and experienced projector. It is particularly useful for the beginner , desperate to experience their first OBE and for the "jaded practitioner", enough golden nuggets to set the fire of ambition to soar out of the body again! Highly recommended.

GREAT!

This is really a wonderful way to saturate your mind with the skills and 'know how' to achieve conscious astral projection. Normally I'm not so thrilled with day to day manuals on how to achieve something, but the more I learn how to learn, this is really a fantastic way to get the message across to the subconscious and accomplish goals in an easier, well planned out way. Usually I buy a book and go through it like a machine, with out giving my self the necessary time to really assimilate the ideas. I can't do that with this book. It's like having a personal teacher come over for an hour or so each day then vanishing. Leaving you with bits of building block information, too little to forget, but too much to not practice for that moment. Robert's other book, Astral Dynamics, is a great book for getting an idea of what OBE's are all about, and I think this book, Mastering Astral Projection, is a perfect companion for applying skills to make it happen. I give this book 5. Hats off, Good Job!

The Best Astral Projection Manual I've Seen

I like that it is organized in a day by day method. It averages about 2 pages per day. This really helps me stay motivated and focused. The explanations are clear and concise. I also enjoyed the dual perspective of a novice, with all the difficulties he faced, and an experienced projector. Just enough information is given so you can easily focus and not feel overwhelmed. It is suggested that you also read books that describe out of body experiences (OBE) to help your subconscious accept the idea. This is great advice. When I was reading Astral Dynamics by Robert Bruce and reading The Art of Dreaming by Carlos Castaneda I had and OBE when I drifted off to sleep. I felt my body leave my other physical body just like I was passing right through it. I wasn't expecting to project so I panicked and returned to my body. It really felt like I was being yanked right out of my body. After I realized what had happened I was really excited and somewhat disappointed that I didn't fully go through with the projection. It wasn't until later that I found out that Carlos is a fraud, but he is an entertaining author anyway. What was important is that my subconscious believed and was inspired by the book which helped induce an OBE. So stick with the books suggested in the back of Mastering Astral Projection for reputable authors who have projected. If there was anyway I would improve this book I would prefer more pictures. Astral Dynamics has some helpful pictures when learning the energy development exercises that Mastering Astral Projection doesn't. The lack of pictures doesn't detract from the easy instructions, but it would have been nice. On the CD that comes with the book the software is for MS Window computers so Apple/Linux fans are kind of out of luck. To be fair, as far as I can tell there aren't any easy to use biaural brain wave software for Apple or Linux. What I would have liked are mp3 sound tracks of what the Brain wave generator was playing so all computer platforms would be able to take advantage of the presets, not to mention I could load the audio tracks to my iPod and do the exercises anywhere. The biaural sound wave software is not necessary for projection, they are just a nice extra. The author really crammed everything he thought would be helpful for astral projection into this book. This book is primarily focused on how to get you out of your body, so other books which describe the OBE environment are helpful. Overall if you are looking for a practical step by step method for astral projection this book is hard to beat, I highly recommend it. I would also recommend Astral Dynamics by the same author for an overview of the astral area. Some of the books which describe experiences out of body are: (...)
