Journeys Out of the Body: The Classic Work on Out-Of-Body Experience (Journeys Trilogy)

Product Information

Unpredictably, and without his willing it, Monroe found himself leaving his physical body to travel via a "second body" to locales far removed from the physical and spiritual realities of his life. I can’t say this book was comforting in any way or even instill in me the desire to actually have an OOBE now.

OBE's are something that I've instinctively been interested in since a young age as I used to think about think about them a lot and I also used to get myself into 'tingly' states as a child.

In the book he lifts the veil on one of the tantalizing abilities of the human mind, namely to exist outside of the human. The fact that most of our knowledge about OOBEs comes from reports of once-in-a-lifetime experiences puts us at two serious disadvantages.

And even as one's own mind fights back against what he says, with incredulity and disbelief, one comes to realize that this is precisely what the mind was designed to do - to protect us, to help us to survive on the physical plane, and its job is and always has been to translate the world around us, into understandable terms on the level of the physical world. This is an excellent book to introduce the reader to Astral travel and the realities that exists just beyond the veil of perception. Y el Escenario III, el cual definitivamente es el que más intrigada me mantuvo; hay una parte en la que el autor explica su encuentro con su “otro yo” en este escenario. The second disadvantage is that when a person is suddenly thrust for a brief period of time into a very novel environment he may not be a very good observer.The only thing else I will say is that I know that at the time that this happened I believed that in fact it really happened - that I left my body and went into the lock of my cell door, and unlocked it.

Robert Monroe's book is often referred to by other authors who share their out of body experiences and methods. Suppose this person claims that on the previous night he had an experience of flying through the air over a large city which he soon recognized as New York. Just finished reading it for a third time, wanted to re-familiarize myself as I am finally going to get around to reading the other two in the series now.Perhaps that is why some of the other authors' books lack specific details, maybe they assume people have started with Robert Monroe's books.

For Monroe, fear was the dominant theme – fear of the unknown, of strange (non-physical) beings, of “death”, of God, etc. He is very careful to assure the reader he doesn’t intend to impose a belief system on the reader as an absolute truth or directly claim to have answers. And, because there is so much information in this one book, much may have been forgotten from before. Robert Monroe's step-by-step instructions invite the reader to initiate their own out-of-body experiences. Monroe for me was one of the best, easy to relate to as he constantly reassures the reader that it took him years to manifest all the results.

Era un hombre de negocios sin interés especial por investigar el tema, cuarentón, casado, un american man cualquiera de las series antiguas. Robert Monroe's first book was published at a time when the phenomenon of out of body (OOB) travel, or astral projection, was not widely understood or discussed in western industrialised society. In general, it helps to have something to believe in and the thought that life is not over and the fact that there's more but we don't see is its amazing.
