delibeli Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Does the Sikh faith believe in astral travel and if so, does it encourage its followers to experiment with this activity? Is astral travel/projection considered black arts within the Sikh religious teachings? Are there any astral travelers on this forum who class themselves as 'adepts' in astral travel/projection? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kraff Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Nearly every single Sikh I know does astral travel. It is not against Sikhism or a cultural taboo! Sikhism is a very liberal kind of religion, anything goes, weird or not!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 The real astral travel was done by Guru Nanak. I wonder if anyone can come close to his speed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 The problem is even when you are aware in dreams everything is so blurry and dense to move through. And dream will remain a dream...it will be a projection of unconscious mind tendencies manifesting in a dream. You cannot call it real astral travel. Unless one has a real mastery over the all 5 koshas of body , you cannot really astral travel imo . Also one needs to be aware of their surti....once you can attach yourselves to it , it is the fastest vehicle ever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to be a fairly advance meditator to carry out astral projection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lucky Posted April 28, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 You guys are getting mixed up with what you read about astral travel. There are a few different events that are often coined under the same banner. Firstly, in Simran, and in advanced stages of simran, you can experience "consciousness expansion" this is being fully conscious of exactly where you are physically and at the same time your consciousness can also be in full awareness some place millions of miles away! This means you don't exactly "exit' your body or anything and leave it behind, but you can be fully conscious in 2 places at once. A member or two on here has experienced this whilst meditating and you really won't ever understand it unless it's experienced. Secondly, In simran/as per gurmat /gurbani. ...the object is to CLOSE the 9 doors(naun darwajey) and meet our One Prabh. This is ONLY by "Har Har Naam dhyiaana" . Now, I can't say no more, because I don't know if 9 doors close and soul exits dasam duar to have darshan OR if the darshan occur whilst in a state of consciousness expansion. However, I do feel that it is probably the former and in that sense, I believe that our interest as per gurbani, should only be on astral event of closing naun darwajey and opening the dasam. As per the most common explanations of astral travel, which involves atma (inner soul) exiting body via some route or method; Sikh abyaasee is only interested in leaving the body via dasam duar, because that is the only direct portal to waheguru. Leaving by any other of the 9 doors keeps you in the lower realms. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kudrat44 Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 One can visit different realms at any time with the mastery of AT and remain there for as long as one desires! AT is not a big deal at all. Don't turn it into something it is not. Animals do it all the time and they are able to sense the future events, especially cats. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
