Focusing all your attention on the very core of the resonance, allow the sound to slowly ascend toward the ceiling. Feel your awareness merging with the sound. As much as possible, become one with the rising sound, as your body becomes increasingly relaxed. Feel your awareness rising with the sound. Become one with the OM resonance. Enjoy the sound, and flow with it. Feel yourself become lighter and lighter as you float with the sound. Allow your physical body to rest and sleep as you focus all your attention on the rising sound. Maintain all your attention on the rising sound as your body falls to sleep. As you begin to fall asleep, concentrate all your awareness on the rising sound. This technique can be effectively used with an out-of-body induction sound tape. When using any external sound system, remember to focus on your internal sounds. The external sound’s only purpose is to reinforce and enhance your own voice. Repetition (Ceremonial Technique) On numerous occasions people have told me of creating a repetitive system or ritual for their out-of-body preparation. Essentially, they have created a personal series of repetitive events that lead up to their out-of-body experiences. For example, they may take a long relaxing bath, then wear a special white robe and place lighted candles around their bed or sofa as they prepare to relax and begin their out-of-body technique. Throughout this process, they constantly focus upon their desire for an immediate out-of-body experience. Many people report impressive results with this kind of approach. I believe the success of the ritual technique owes to the special emphasis given to the goal during the entire preparation procedure. The mind registers the rather lengthy, repetitive process as something special and focuses additional subconscious attention upon the specified goal—an out-of-body experience. Moreover, the very act of repeating the same procedure for a period of weeks has an impact on the subconscious mind. There’s an old saying that any act or thought repeated daily for twenty-one days becomes a habit. This idea is based on the premise that our subconscious mind takes note of the daily repetition and accepts it as a new behavior norm. I believe the same principle explains why daily repetition and the ritual technique are so effective. Looking back over the years, I now recognize that I created my own ritual-like procedure. In the early seventies for a period of two years I woke up at 7:00 A.M., went to a morning college class at 8:30, then returned around 11:30 and relaxed. Every day at noon I would lie in bed on my back and do an out-of-body technique. This process was extremely effective. After several weeks of daily repetition, I had programmed myself to have out-of-body experiences. After several months, I didn’t need to do a technique of any kind; I would just take a nap at noon and automatically lift up and away from my physical body. In retrospect, I believe that this was a form of self-conditioning. Success builds upon success, and once my conscious and subconscious mind accepted the process of out-of-body experiences, it became a very natural state of being. After I had had several successful and enjoyable experiences, my subconscious mind began to fully cooperate with my desires. This is important because it points the way to a deeper understanding of the entire process of out-of-body exploration. To obtain the knowledge and wisdom available to us within the non-physical dimensions of the universe, we must go beyond our superficial desires. To become proficient at non-physical exploration, we must be willing to program ourselves for success. Half-hearted attempts at out-of-body techniques will produce half-hearted results. For real success and control, we must be willing to make a full emotional and intellectual commitment to this exploration. The easiest way to do this is to create a daily repetition or ritual of preparation and technique. The key is to do it daily and, if at all possible, at the same time and place. The combination of repetition and determination creates a powerful system of success that can be used to achieve whatever you may desire out of life. Results Commonly Reported The initial results reported during out-of-body experiences vary from person to person. Over the past twenty years, however, I have noticed some remarkable similarities. How we react to the initial changes we experience will many times control our success. The rapid transfer of your personal awareness from your physical body to your non-physical self can be a startling leap if you are unprepared. Having some idea of what to expect will greatly assist your initial explorations. The more prepared you are for the experience, the greater the control you will be able to exercise. Your positive response to the sudden change of your personal location, perception, and viewpoint is absolutely essential to a successful controlled experience. As you focus all your attention upon your out-of-body technique, your physical body will become increasingly relaxed. Eventually your body will begin its transition into sleep. As this sleep transition occurs, you may experience a dramatic change in your normal sleep cycle. This change may occur immediately after your body goes to sleep or during a REM period. It is during this transition that the inner signals are reported most often, so pay attention to any unusual internal sounds or sensations you may experience. The following are the most commonly reported results experienced immediately after an out-of-body technique. 1. Floating, standing, or lying just outside your physical body. 2. Experiencing your energy-self either lying or sitting within your physical body. This may be accompanied by an intense vibration circulating through your entire energy-body. You may feel out of sync with your physical body and ready to simply “lift out” of the physical. This is completely natural; just focus your attention on your new vibration rate and direct yourself to move away from your physical vehicle. 3. Standing or sitting at one of your target areas observing your new environment. This shift of awareness is rapid, so remain calm and enjoy your new vibration rate. 4. Experiencing a lucid dream (a dream in which you become consciously aware of your environment). During this dream, you may experience one or more of your inner signals. Focus your attention on the vibration or sound and will yourself away from your body. 5. Experiencing a non-physical environment that differs from your daily surroundings. Remain calm and enjoy your new environment. 52
