INTRODUCTION
BY XANTH (Ryan)
I‟ve compiled all of Franks posts (whatever is left on the Astral Pulse forums as some 600 posts
are lost to the ages) into this single PDF for easy viewing.
I read through all his posts using the forum and it was quite cumbersome to figure out how to
scroll through them all in a logical manner.
I do want to point out that posts 1252 – 1215 (in the middle of the PDF) are out of order for some
unknown reason. They belong, mostly, in the front of the book. So when you get to them,
please keep that in mind.
I have kept all of the links so you can still reference back to the entire thread which is being
discussed to provide yourself with some extra context. All links take you directly to their
corresponding threads on the Astral Pulse forum. You‟ll only have access if you have a live
internet connection.
That‟s about it for now…
Personally speaking, this collection has helped me more in the past few weeks than all of my
readings over the past 10 years. So you can imagine how elated I am to share this with you.
Drop by my website for more information about Frank and to read about my own experiences.
Thanks!
Ryan

IMO I feel the book is not for beginners. It starts off too complex and seems to get simpler about
half-way through. I found it very informative, certainly, and a darned good book. But I feel
beginners would have a hard time with it.
Cheers,
Frank
spontaneous obe question on: March 24, 2002, 09:38:52
Spontaneous obe's are very difficult to control... precisely because they occur spontaneously. If
you are waking to vibrations, chances are, your projected body has left you. In other words, you
ARE out! You probably just don't realise it.
Problem is, you can never be sure where your projected body is going to end up. Your sense of
awareness is still in the physical so it is only natural to think, right, let's try some technique to
"get out". The technique will fail because your projected body is already out. That's where the
Mind-Split phenomenon fools you.
What usually happens is you drift off for a moment, the projected body returns, and the whole
experience just becomes a dream.
Yours,
Frank
More on stilling the mind and success on: March 24, 2002, 11:41:02
No, I don't like the term "trance" either because it puts beginners off by confusing them. I know
only too well as it first confused me completely.
At the point of projection, you are fully aware of everything that is taking place. To my mind,
you are in anything but a "trance".
Trance, to me, means being under some kind of hypnosis. A state where you are not really
aware of what is going on. Then someone clicks their fingers (or whatever) and you suddenly
snap out of it, wondering what happened.
The way I would describe it, it's like a veil has been drawn over my sense of outer awareness.
What happens is I'm lying on the bed, deeply relaxed, such that my surface thoughts are non-
existent. However, there is still a portion of my conscious awareness that can sense the physical
world outside my body. Even though my mind is still, and all is calm, there is just this fraction
of a tiny something that is aware of the physical surroundings.
Then, a veil is drawn over this "something". At that point, there becomes a fixed point of
conciousness that is entirely within myself and I am no-longer aware of the "outside world".
This fixed point of conciousness absorbs every ounce of my attention. It seems like everything I
am experiencing or thinking stems from or is concentrated upon that fixed point inside myself.
But I am still fully conscious. At this point, I've stopped rope-climbing or whatever method I'd
been using to bring myself to that state. Then, an instant later the vibrations begin; followed by a
feeling like being in an elevator; then off I go.
Yours,
Frank

The falling sensation is one of the difficult things to become accustomed to as it really does feel
like you've just flung yourself from a tall building. At first it ignites all the bodily fight or flee
process. To overcome it, I went on a high roller-coaster ride fairly regularly until I got bored
with all falling sensations. Now when it happens, at the onset of projection, my consciousness
thinks nothing of it.

/ Undependent Astral Beeing or fabrication? on: March 25, 2002, 14:15:35
There is a level that seems to be a buffer zone between a lucid dream and an area where other
beings frequent. Years ago I would forever find myself trapped in this buffer-zone by my own
mind-thoughts.
What seems to happen is: if you feel scared, for example, the scenery will change so as to give
yourself something to feel scared about. Which, naturally, makes you feel even more scared; so
again the scenery will instantly change to something that is even more awful, and so on.
The process also works the other way around.
If you feel blissfully happy, circumstances around you will become so that they make you feel all
blissful and happy.
I also have a theory that significant numbers of new-age mystical types get trapped at this stage.
Many I spoke to, over the years, would describe this heavenly place that they sought-out through
some meditation technique or other. Basically, If you come to this stage thinking you've found
God and all his angels, for instance, then that is precisely what you will get by the plane-load!
I used to call this place the "training ground". It took me quite a while to realise that the
images/circumstances I was seeing were being generated by my own thoughts!
Just beyond this, you start coming across regions (types of Astral Planes) where people appear to
be going about their business in all manner of circumstances. Living and working in places that
can be very ordinary or quite fantastic and all situations inbetween.
Most times you can approach someone and have a chat. But don't be surprised if they just look at
you totally confused. I found if you become disruptive, you are automatically shifted back to the
training ground stage. Hence the name. The best state of mind to have on this region, I found, is
that of mild curiosity. Then you tend to attract beings who like to help out.

Nailing the Exit on: March 26, 2002, 09:48:36
quote:
I've been attempting Astral Projection unsuccessfully for about a year now, reading various books, websites, etc. I recently picked up Astral Dynamics and
I really enjoy the book. It isn't like anything else I've read.
Now, here's my dilema. I have gotten pretty good at successfully relaxing my body and calming my mind, then entering the trance state. However, I just
can't nail the exit! I sometimes get vibrations, swaying sensations, etc, and sometimes I don't get anything. When I begin with the rope technique, I feel
as though the pressure is forcing me to break trance. I catch myself holding my breath, or tensing muscles. Then, before I know it, I've killed the trance.
For some reason, I can't let go of the physical.
Any suggestions/ comments?
You use the ROPE technique in order to bring yourself to the point where you begin to feel
vibrations.
What the ROPE technique serves to to is 1) provide a focal point of conciousness to the
exclusion of all other thoughts, feelings, etc., and 2) it gives a powerful visual signal to the sub-
conscious that you want to transfer your conscious mind into the projected body and go some
place other than where your physical body happens to be.
If you start rope-climbing at the vibration stage, chances are you will upset the process. This
appears to be what is happening in your case.
First, understand that the separation is fully automatic. The trick is to bring yourself up to the
vibration stage and then simply let separation happen!
Tensing muscles and upsetting the smooth progression of the breath are caused by tiny fears,
doubts, etc. Which will go away once you experience projection a few times. After all, you are
on the brink of the unknown (according to your conscious awareness at the time). So it is only
natural for it to feel a teeny bit nervous. Which in turn upsets the projection process.
What I did was, as the vibrations began I found I could modulate their intensity by regulating my
breathing. So I spent time just experiencing the vibration-sensation thus allowing my conscious
mind to get used to them.
The way you separate is just to let it happen. If you try and "do something" the process will be
interrupted.
Yours,
Frank

Blown by the strobe... on: March 26, 2002, 18:23:08
Look, I don't want to sound rude, or anything, but my posting to this BBS is the first time I have
ever made contact with others on this whole subject.
I just want to say that the "Astral Realms" are pretty flaming wierd. You cannot start
questioning, "Oh, I saw this flashing light what am I going to do?"
In the Astral Realms there are lights you could never imagine you would ever see. There are
sounds that you couldn't possibly describe. There are different kinds of beings you come across
that you could never imagine existed.
But they are all within you, and you must have faith in the fact that you can never be harmed by
it all. In the sense that the whole experience is a natural discovery process that the "supreme
being" is wanting you to have.
Gosh, decades ago, I was SO scared of every little sound and every little vibration caused a
fear... a fear so big that it felt like someone was about to end my life at that moment.
Yours,
Frank

Hey Frank, what do you mean the beings are within oneself? Are you saying all beings one meet in the astral should be imaginary beings or what?´ Cause
that I would disagree with... I don´t think that was what you meant though..
Tia, flickering lights, sound, and other sensations seems to be very common in connection with OBE´s and OBE attempts, and shouldn´t be over analyzed
I´d reckon. Me myself has never heard any sounds or had any flickering though, but the vibrations, them I´ve encountered the more even though I´m an
OBE novice... it seems to be very individual what type of sensations one will experience, they are all exciting though, the thing is to make them non-
exciting, so one doesn´t get distracted by them... remember to be merely a passive observer to these sensations, responding to them would most likely ruin
a good OBE attempt. Since I haven´t yet succeeded floating out, I can´t say how long I have to put up with the sensations before "leaving", but the two
times I felt I was VERY close I had the vibrations for what seemed like 3 minutes give and take 1 or 2... how fast I encounter the vibrations vary of
course, but I most often get them rather quickly, perhaps 5-15 minutes after relaxing the physical body satisfyingly(sp?).
All the best in your future attempts, perhaps we´ll bump into each other out there, until then, take care// Qui-Gon
- Your focus determines your reality -
All the beings you see, everything that you experience... whether on the physical plane or
otherwise... happens within you.
But... Imaginary???
NO WAY!!!!!
