How do you discern with your eyes closed?

You may not think so much about how you take in information about your night-time dreams. After all, since your eyes are closed, you may assume you do not ingest details with your senses.  It is common for dreamers to assume they make-up everything. 

Think again. What if senses you are unaware of by day are being used at night? What if consciously preventing the use of senses you use in waking life enables you to remind yourself of other abilities you have always had? Are you reading the signs?

If you take the view that you exist in an infinite space, like the idea of the holodeck on the Starship Enterprise, then you may begin to believe that your daytime senses create details to enable you to feel grounded.  Similarly, while asleep, you give yourself the freedom to do things that in waking life you brainwash yourself to believe are impossible.

For instance, many people will talk about a desire to fly.  They will share what they imagine it feels like and refer to their observations of flying creatures.  Yet, what if views of flying draw from experience of astral travel? What if removing constraints of the conscious mind enables you to expand your sense of boundaries beyond your regular imagination? What if astral dreaming is a baseline state that reveals your true identity?

Closing your physical eyes shuts out limited seeing.  It connects you with pure consciousness in the light, immerses you in the truth of who you are.  You do not think about how your daily perception actually blocks innate awareness of light.  Astral dreaming enables you to experience what ego cannot. Be like a fish.   Be awake while you sleep with eyes wide shut.

Share your experiences or expectations

When human beings explore astral dreaming, they do not necessarily sense what this is.  As an astral dreamer, you will sense a different sort of reality and remember details that surprise you.  How often do you ask yourself why you would like to astral travel?

Any human being can learn astral projection.  Some people learn to project the body.  Others project consciousness.  Still either people learn to project either or both at will.  In all cases, your awareness is heightened and you sense differently.  You may create new points of reference.  You may also sense your mind is playing tricks on you. 

It is not uncommon for people to get a fright when they discover their fingers seem to be made of elastic and they can stretch them like taffy.  Some people even wonder if perhaps they are dead because their insight and perspective change and grow so much.

Like anything, if you set your mind to the task, you can train yourself, develop mental discipline and venture to places you had not even imagined during waking consciousness.  If you choose, you can engage in dialogue with people you haven't seen in a long time.  As you erase or move beyond expectations that emerge from what you have heard from other people about astral travel, you will move to create your own personal experience.

Dream your way to infinite gateways

What would you say if you realized training yourself to recall night dreams strengthens your conscious memory?  What if you discovered that the more control you develop over your astral body, the more control you would sense over the dream of your waking life? 

Its all about discipline and learning to control your attention.  Your energy (astral) body is always with you.  It leaves and returns to your physical body at will, day or night, but remains attached by an invisible, etheral cord.  This energy body survives the death of the physical body and it senses experiences the physical body doesn't, even now.

You may ask, 'how does the astral body know what to do?' It exists and functions without your knowledge until you are ready and willing to learn.  Its astonishing to discover you can do things you have consciously conditioned yourself to believe you can't.  Its unnecessary to grasp the how you do everything.  You discern what you need as you go.

Gateways are like energetic challenges you must face in the astral dimensions in order to progress.  Some human beings make an analogy with levels of complexity of electronic video games.  You acquire tools you need to reach each gate and pass through when ready.  The number of gates you will encounter is less relevant that the mental process you develop to build personal power. You always have choices. Which ones will you take?

Take several forms at one time

In a book called Seth Speaks, Jane Roberts channels what Seth explains as inherent characteristics of any consciousness.  That is to say, this book suggests any human being is capable of taking on many forms at one time.  Do you underestimate your potential?

For example, your physical body can lie on a bed while your consciousness journeys in a dream form to very different locations.  You can explore astral and lucid dream states.  You can devise thought forms of yourself which could materialize in another place without your conscious awareness.  Are you beginning to discern your hidden strength?

As you evolve to realize your consciousness isn't limited, you also begin to realize that you aren't limited in terms of the forms you can create and project at a given time. The better you get-to-know yourself, the more conscious you will become about what you are doing, what you have the potential to do, and what forms you can control into being.

What would you say if you were able to learn to travel through emotions rather than permit them to control you?  What would you say if you felt much more freedom to explore an experience in ways that used to seem unnatural or inconceivable? What would you do?

Imagine what it will feel like when you no longer wish to hide your emotions, when you no longer fear the truth.  Imagine how your life will change from the moment you know your feelings are discerned through senses you forgot you had.  Choices will make more sense.

Are you ready for teleportation?

Some people believe that progressing in astral realms brings you a step closer to teleportation.  What about yourself? Do you visualize this future? Now, before you give into a spark of doubt in your head that tells you its all science fiction, think again.

Mystics worldwide have evolved to teleport their bodies and objects over large distances.  Some mystics can split consciousness into two parts, that is, they drop body awareness and fly as a free spirit.  Some of these people leave a physical body in one place and generate another body elsewhere. Does this dissolve some of your own myths?

Documented evidence recorded about mystics in places like India and native America implies many of us have not even begun to explore what it  means to travel as a sphere of light.  You may dream you do this sporadically, intermittently, or even on a regular basis in astral.  Yet, this would only give you a brief taste of what's possible. 

You may find this prospect a bit hard to swallow.  It may call into question much of what you have learned about your whole self.  What if what you have been conditioned to believe blocks you from experiencing the truth?  What if the original body self can be talking and walking in one place while another part of you is otherwise preoccupied?

Mystics who practice teleportation don't use it to create alibis so they can break rules and laws elsewhere.  These beings aren't ego-driven.  In fact, dissolving ego or transcending it is a prerequisite to deeper astral travel and for exploring other worlds.   

That said, energy beings who develop heightened awareness help other humans to better understand the essence of time, space and Spirit.  To grow, you need to forget what you think you know.  Out of intention and awareness comes mind-blowing manifestation.
