Hello,
I have been reading up on Robert Bruce's work, specifically the PDF on the website, which includes Treatise on Astral Projection, NEW, and other things. I tried using the rope technique to induce a projection, but at some point I achieved different results.

What happened instead of an OBE was that my body started going into some routine that began with stretching all sorts of muscles (some that I wasn't even aware of!) almost on its own. I could feel what was going on, and could also stop it if I chose, but I just let it go on to see what would happen (I have to admit, I thought it was the coolest thing I had seen for awhile). Basically, the stretching routine lasted about 1-2 hrs (I went to bed at 11 PM), after which it went from stretching to tracing energy pathways (? - I'm not exactly sure). What happened was that my fingers began tracing lines between the locations of my chakras, as well as rubbing / stroking / pushing on the chakra areas (although I'm not sure - aren't there supposed to be 7 chakras, though I only recall dealing with six?). I'm not sure exactly when this second routine ended exactly because I think I dozed off towards the end (was it 4 AM? I can't remember).

It was an interesting experience, but I'm not sure what was the source of it. I have wanted to project for quite some time, ever since my friend introduced me to the concept back in middle school (I am now a high school senior), but for a while I had almost forgotten about the idea, until I read an article about binaural beats, which reminded me of the brainwave stuff my friend was using to try to get us to project. Some Googling later, I found this site, which really seems to be the one-stop-shop for pretty much anything astral (which of course makes me excited), so I figured I'd try to get back into trying to project again.

Anyway, sorry about my digression. My basic question is - what did I experience? How is it related to AP? How can I use this experience to further my goal of achieving AP?

Thanks and sorry for the long post,
Andy
