what about the path of initiation in astral
Much has been said in the esoteric literature,of initiation into the astral, about to face some demons, but since i read the first edition of the phase ,years ago .It changed my view point on this issue, and what do you guys think about initiation in astral?

Re: what about the path of initiation in astral
I think 'astral projection' is a belief-centric and delusional affair which can impede the practice of entering and managing the phase state--a condition where everything that is experienced arises in your mind and is entirely subjective.

Re: what about the path of initiation in astral
You're welcome!
In nearly two centuries of neuroscience, we have observed that all mental faculties are excisable via brain damage or malfunction; it is enough to render Descartes' dualism defunct. The soul concept doesn't even explain consciousness; it only aggravates the problem as we are then forced to ask: How is the soul conscious? Besides, Occam's razor finds its applicability here--our biology can work without the ghost assumption. It's funny how hadron colliders have revealled the Higgs that bestows mass to all particles, and yet, this hypothetical ectoplasm that is supposed to grossly control physical bodies (on a classical level of physics) is nowhere to be found ...
As Marcello Truzzi once said, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. If you claim flying pigs exist, the onus is on you to prove it. So far such creatures have never been observed so it makes no sense to believe in them. The astral projection affair is so blatantly a fantasy it's embarassing.
Also, anyone who is a serious practitioner of meditation will know that the self is nothing but a mental fiction. Here is my thread on mostly anatta 'no-self':

So ... is astral projection and spirit entities real? Only in the minds of those who believe.

Re: what about the path of initiation in astral
I was fully conscious in my dream,receiving a conference,with my Instructor ,and i asked him stuffs,about Iniciation,about th religare,about the being,if he was a person and he told me that it was an intangible sustance,that we have to trust him.What i learned there is that we have to adapt ourselves to circumstances,and that the real religare is there,and we have to learn to do things without questioning ,it was a long time being therein that conference,and there were all kind of people.And i just stood up there with my counsciousness and i deliveraty decided to go back .
So happy phase experience!
