Didn't Neville teach that when you reprogram the subconscious mind you naturally "act as if" without acting
No he didn't. He taught act as if as a PRIMARY METHOD to reprogram the subconscious mind (sm). This is a bad method to recommend to beginners who are not especially talented in acting etc.
Everyone coming here from the other subs is blessed to have finally sought a break from the emotional self-harm that seems to be at the core of the methodology in these other groups... which I took pa…
It took me 2 days of thinking on this post to finally internally understand The Law of Belief vs acting as if. A person can get caught up in trying to take surface actions of acting as if, but still u…
Just a few questions Mr Moonbeam. If you are so against the “act/live as if” what do you have to say about Dr. Joe Dispenza, Gregg Braden and Dr. Bruce Liptons, Napoleon Hill, Jim Rohn, Eckhart Toll…
Not every fiber. Thats a myth. Just 51% of your subconscious mind (sm).
Thank you for this. Because it seems like people put Neville and Joseph Murphy in the exact same category of teaching. I’ve read Power of The Subconscious Mind and going back for a 2nd read. Edit:…

It just depends on what kind of beings you want to meet. Duality still exists in the Astral. Just like in physical life you can find good and bad teachers. And yes, dimensions above the Astral are gen…
What does this mean - the fact that we astral project unconsciously anyway every night? Is this implying dreaming or something we don't remember? I'm confused
Yes, so you will find many experienced Astral Projectors will agree that we all leave the body every night. In one sense, you could called both dreams and the Astral, the experience of Internal Worlds…
Yep! Practice makes perfect. Deep relaxation is important. You have to relax and go to sleep, consciously. It's generally recommended to do it during a WBTB phase. That is, attempt it after 4-6 hours …
Has anyone experienced an intense pulling like sensation from your body? Like to me it doesn’t seem as simple as getting up at the side of your bed. I get the consciousness when I sleep but then somet…
Regardless of what it was, it was a non-physical experience. There can be lines blurred between what is lucid dreaming and astral projection, here's a video explaining the difference https://youtu.be/…
Last night I meditated to sleep and at some point became aware in my dream after noticing something was off I opened the door to step into a “void “ or some part of consciousness I briefly saw my body…
Yes, it could have been an unconscious form of AP. Forces/intelligences can communicate to us this way, even if we're not fully conscious.
Hm. I wonder if that could be it. But I'm also super new to spirituality. How do I overcome this? I'm wondering if also maybe it was because it was the first time I was trying to separate my conscious…
What were you doing specifically, were you "trying very hard"? What did the pain feel like? Perhaps since you're new you were subconsciously processing some emotions deep-rooted in the body. My best a…

No, it is not. People talk a lot of nonsense. The only demons people get possessed by are by their own egotistical psychology or some other fantasy 👍 I'll also paste an answer I gave to someone a whi…
There is no best method. It is a journey of discovery. Look into meditation and getting in touch with the subconscious. It's probably best to get your first book on Astral projection, many good ones o…

There's nothing to buy 😉 it can be seen from an evolutionary perspective in the sense of a greater level of consciousness, which scientifically you can understand as the 5th dimension and above.
No, it is to do with you as an energetic being and your level and complexity of consciousness and also your own psychology. There are many things to consider.
Anytime I've been lucid dreaming or maybe even unconsciously astral projecting I've had a recurring dream that I'm being chased by someone who I think wants to hurt me. I just heard an AP podcast talk…

Random question...has anyone asked an astral being what happens when we die? Because if our consciousness is tied to our body when our body fails...what happens to the consciousness?
