Adventures Beyond the Body - the exploration
    #16952586 -

Greetings, Friends!:sunny:

I was recently introduced to a wonderful book entitled "Adventures Beyond the Body", by William Buhlman, and in turn I highly recommend it to the members here. It's much more than a handbook on Out-of-Body experiences, and could prove to be a life-changer for those who are willing to delve into it.




I've copied out an excerpt to share with you ;


I now recognize that we as human beings have a natural tendency to attach labels to everything we experience and to filter it according to our physical concepts and beliefs. I wonder if all shapes and forms are really our minds' interpretation of something else -- something that exists beyond all form and substance; something so pure and ethereal as to be beyond our minds' ability to classify and interpret. It's possible that our recognition of this is a major step forward in and of itself. Maybe the constant infighting between different religions, faiths, and sects would finally come to an end if we only recognized that all religious beliefs are the physical interpretations of mortals. It's absolutely clear now that God does not care about our personal theology. Our physical beliefs are all rooted in temporary forms and substance; they are all but a passing moment in time. What really matters is experience, spiritual experience. It appears that the purpose of the entire universe is experience -- firsthand, gut-wrenching, personal experience. Nothing can replace it. It's now clear that personal experience is the road to wisdom that we all share.

William Buhlman, Excerpt from "Adventures Beyond the Body"



It is my hope that we can keep this thread active with others that discuss their OBE experiences. ( out of body experiences):sunny:

I had my first OBE after discovering this book back in 2008. I still recommend it as one of the best on the subject. :thumbup: If you do a search for OBE, lucid dream or astral projection you'll get a ton of threads on similar topics. Check out my blog for some similar books you may enjoy.

How can the purpose of the universe be experience? What does that mean?

From my interpretation, it means physical reality (the universe) is set up as a school for consciousness, to experience and grow from that experience.

For what end? (I'm genuinely curious, not quite questioning this)

Or is this just the facts for now, sort of thing?

Well the great spirit in all things makes this a place where we can learn about what we truly are. Somehow we are from undifferentiated spirit that came from either something or nothing. Call it energy, call it matter, call it god, either way Were here, and we live to learn, sometimes we even have to learn to live, and we evolve. We are cosmic children learning how to be love at the moment, remembering what we are perfectly through the experience of time, the thing that keeps all things from happening at once, yet time doesn't exist for this moment is all that exists. Its all one, its all one, its all one.

Not sure, from my perspective it would be to experience more of what I desire (joy) and less of what I don't (fear).

I get this feeling the truth can only be apprehended directly by yourself, and nothing and no one else can show it to you.
