Summary: Thrilling journals
Review: His accounts of his out-of-body travels really motivate you to begin trying to get out. They were very interesting. His techniques make sense and are pretty easy to practice. Overall the book was worth the price, with the only real setback being that his detailed description of how the universe is composed got a bit boring, but other than that a good book.

Summary: What can I say? Wow...
Review: I bought this book because I wanted to read a book that would teach me how to experience out-of-body travel. Instead I found a completely different teaching.Buhlam does give (I think) very good ways to induce astral projection. However, if you're expecting a step-by-step course, this is not where you will find it. Most of the work will have to be done by yourself. But this is only a matter of motivation and responsibility. So this comment should not seen as an argument against reading the book. The big surprise for me was in the multiple journal entries that Buhlman shares with us. I found them fascinating! They make up an adventure novel all by themselves. I might also define them as a roadmap to the astral dimensions. We all are looking for teachings in the books we read, and hopefully those teachings allow us to take small steps toward wisdom. In this perspective, I am convinced that there is the right time for every book we read. So I will refrain from writing something like 'you must read this book'. You must make up your own mind. But if you feel ready for the kind of teachings I just described, then don't hesitate.

Summary: Read this book at your own risk
Review: I bought this book because I was interested in the subject and it was published by HarperCollins... Most OBE books are filled with mumbo jumbo and panty waste New Age B.S... This book had exercises that read like a pilot's instruction manual... I tried a few just before I went to sleep for about two weeks every night... Low and behold I woke up in the dream state, climbed out of my body and walked around my apartment!.. If you don't believe it buy the book and try it yourself you skeptical stick in the mud... I only did it twice but it was enough to make me realize there is more going on than what we puny mortals may imagine... I actually got a little spooked and quit the exercises... I thought I could be playing around with occult powers I wasn't prepared for... The Tibetans claim you need a guru to initiate you into this kind of thing... Be careful... Read this book at your own risk...

Summary: I highly recommend this book!
Review: I came across this book in late 1996. Before that, I had an interest in OBE's, but did not have any (consciously), for about 10 years. I started having conscious OBE's within days of finishing this book, and have had hundreds since. This was my first book on OBE's, and I've read several since. This one is still my favorite. One piece of advice for those who may read this book: if you don't have a keen interest in science (or the TV show 'Sliders'), you may wish to skip Chapter 3 :-) Thank you, Mr. Buhlman, for an excellent book!

Summary: Interesting OOB techniques and experiences
Review: I found this book quite interesting--though, to be honest, this was the only book I've read on OOB's so far. His experiences are interesting and inspiring. The author also details some physics theories--black holes, energy matter, and such, which I found interesting, though you may need to read those parts a couple of times to understand what those principles are. Overall, this what a very readable, easy-to-understand book. The only thing I found sort of confusing was his chapter order. For instance, he details his OOB experiences, then veers off on the metaphysics for several chapters before getting back to how to achieve OOB's (which is what most of us buy the book for). Though I haven't yet experienced a true OOB, I found his suggestion to give it 30 minutes a day for a month reasonable. So far I've had a very close almost-experience (the vibrations and roaring sound). Oh--one other thing, that he doesn't get into much that one interested in achieving an OOBE should be aware of-- when he talks about the vibrations and sound, you probably won't experience that right away after trying. I mean, you won't go from visualization technique/meditation to all of a sudden being able to 'leave your body'. Not as a beginner. You need to first actually fall asleep (even if it's only for two seconds), and then when you 'awake' you'll probably find yourself being able to move your nonphysical limbs (try pushing your arms through your mattress--it's a nifty feeling). Then, right away focus on a separation technique (he lists several). You'll feel like you're a rocket, but if there's no outside distractions (unfortunately there was for me during that critical stage), you should have no problem! What I learned from this book, to put it somewhat concisely, is: write down an affirmation 50 or so times (he provides suggested affirmations) during the day that you want to achieve an OOB. Go to bed not expecting to achieve an OOB, just focus on getting closer--more relaxed, concentrating on whatever technique you choose. After you wake up to go to the bathroom in the early morning hours, repeat this affirmation as you drift back off to sleep. You might be surprised, but after you have another REM dream period, you may wake to find yourself OOB. By the way, you'll know when you're ready for separation. It's not a slight tingling or waves of vibrations (which I spent many frustrating times trying to use as my separation point). It's a full throttle sensation. At the very least, this book is quick-reading and will alter your perceptions of reality. Good luck!

Summary: Out-of-Body travel may not be right for everyone
Review: I found this book to give good descriptions of both what to expect and what methods you can try. However, be aware that your path in this lifetime may not require conscious-exit astral travel. And for many of us, astral travel is worked out while we sleep. From my own experience, I would like to make you aware that while OBE's on a conscious level are possibile, they may also invite an undesirable element into your home (uninvited beings). That can be disturbing if you find yourself to be hypersensitive to their presence. Then you will need to make it clear to them- with lovingkindness in your heart- that they are not invited and need to leave (simple verbal communication, silent communication, meditation, and playing spiritual music did the trick). If you have a natural tendency towards OBE's and feel that it is part of your path, then this book will provide you with useful information. If you are seeking higher levels of awareness, a living 5th-level light and sound Master may also be beneficial to you. Best wishes to you on your journey.
