Notes on Astral Traveling
By Hermann Medinger/Vienna, Fra.Manfred I.O. (Illuminaten
Orden)/Austria
Translated by Richard Tschudi
When we Illuminati, who struggle to bring enlightenment in all areas,
concern ourselves today with Astral Traveling, let me explain in the
beginning: it is not something unusual or special, but it is a clear
and simple fact!
Every person has experienced Astral Traveling countless times; as a
matter of fact we do it while we sleep, although mostly we don't
remember it.
Therefore sleep is nothing else than pure, natural Astral Traveling.
The remembering of what we experience on those travels fades away most
of the times at the moment when we wake up. Only distorted fragments
sometimes remain in the form of dreams in our waking consciousness.
While we sleep, the fluid body i.e. the astral body and spirit
separate from the physical body in order to receive nourishment in
higher spheres; the same as the physical body needs nourishment for
its sustenance. When a clairvoyant person looks at a sleeping person
then he can see accurately that while the physical body rests in the
bed, the fluid-body connected to the physical body with the so-called
silver cord, floats up into the realm of the spirit into the astral
and mental sphere. It should be mentioned that the body remains
connected by that cord with the spirit. The "silver cord" will break
at the moment of death.
Only after our physical death we will realize what we did and
experienced during sleep and that we didn't waste or time but that we
used the time for our spiritual evolvement (we sleep away one third of
our lives).
Now there is an other important fact which unfortunately is not known
to most people: The state of consciousness in which we are at the
moment when the connection between the fluid-body and earthly sheath
is loosened, is the condition that gives us the abilities of
clairvoyance, using the sidereal pendulum and dowsing etc. It is the
principal requirement of any mediumistic capability. People, who in
contrast, enclose themselves with a materialistic wall, will never be
able to develop such mediumistic abilities. To penetrate into the
spiritual sphere it is most important to "loosen up". The motto: "I
must loosen up" should be written in big letters above the door of
every lluminatus!
In this regard we can achieve a lot with spiritual exercises. The most
basic "loosening up" exercise consists by trying consciously capturing
and remembering the moment of falling asleep. This state oof
transition, so to say the "turning-point between waking and sleeping
consciousness is the safest starting-point to all spiritual exercises.
Danger lurks when we take the so called "short cuts' to assist us in
"loosening up". When we use alcohol, hashish etc. to help us. The true
adept does not need any of those means and he has his body and spirit
under firm control
I know people (and I myself often can often observe in my case) whose
fluid-body has the tendency to "fly away", which is not always
pleasant. This happened to me one day suddenly while I was driving my
car. A serious accident was only averted by the help of my guardian
spirit.
Let us remember the "witch-flights" of the old hags and magicians
which they achieved with the assistance of all kinds of narcotics
(henbane).
To conclude this article I like to recommend to you dear Fratres .'.
and Sorores .'. the following "loosening up" exercises which will give
you the ability to do astral traveling.
1. Exercise: Place two chairs (facing each other) a short distance
apart. Sit on one of the chairs while you keep the other chair in your
eyes. Then "loose up:" and attempt to leave (in your fluid-body) your
chair and move over the other chair. After some time and trying you
feel yourself sitting there.
2. Exercise: Lie down on your bed and by deep rhythmic breathing
(magical breathing) try to "loosen up" the astral-body and to float
away to a distant place and look around there. However most of the
times you will only succeed if you know the"other place" accurately.
Even in the waking state you find a place easily if you know the way
to go there from before.
3. Exercise: (However dangerous and hardly advisable). Should
everything else fail, then try "loosening up' with all kinds of drugs
evtl. also alcohol. This way perhaps the wall between the material
body and the fluid-body might be loosened up.
(Note of the translator: I only translated this 3rd exercise for
completeness sake. I do not recommend it. If you persist with exercise
1 and 2 you will succeed.)
I myself loosened up" many times, more often than it was pleasant.
There are also disadvantages to be pulled out of your body at any
time.
Never "walk away" from yourself. Always look at the metaphysical from
the secure wrapping of your own physical body; because drugs and
alcohol entice first and only dangerous demons. If you take this
advice nothing bad will happen and the "silver-cord" will not be
damaged. This advises you an old Illuminatus who has don a lot of
astral raveling.
[Hermann Medinger] was the leader of the "Weltbund der Illuminaten"
(World league of the Illuminati's) in the Illuminati province of
Austria.
The "Weltbund deer Illuminaten was founded by Leopold Engel in 1893 as
a successor organization of Adam Weishaupt's Illuminati.]
