Hello,
In this newsletter I am providing my personal spiritual action plan for daily life and for an enlightened transition of consciousness at death. Also included is a video clip from a presentation I gave at the Monroe Institute professional division called "Conscious Transition at Physical Death".
The Share Your Experience detailed below is a wonderful example of meeting a loved one who has passed. This is another verification of our continued existence beyond the physical.
My new Monroe Institute workshop entitledDestination: Higher Self ! will focus on techniques that enhance our ability to be prepared for our transition. This is supported by a 2-CD set titled Destination: Higher Self ! that contains affirmations and meditations that support this important journey that we will all be taking.
A PDF download of the written instructions for the new CD set is now available on my website www.astralinfo.org.
I wish everyone a safe and happy Independence Day holiday.
All my best,
William
Spiritual Liberation
Over the years many people have asked me about my personal program or plan for my spiritual journey through life. Below are the major steps that I feel are essential in our daily life in order for us to experience our ultimate spiritual goals. This is a plan to achieve what Bob Monroe called, “escape velocity” and what the Buddhists called, “liberation from the wheel (reincarnation)”. I feel it’s essential for us to create a personal spiritual action plan for our life and our death and then live by it.
For over a thousand years the Tibetan Buddhists monks have chanted by the bed side of the dying, “Go to the clear light of the Void!” Today we can provide the same form of spiritual assistance for our loved ones and ourselves but in a more modern context. During a loved one’s transition we can silently chant, “Higher Self Now!” The intention is to focus upon your spiritual essence and go beyond the astral dimension realities (bardos) and ultimately escape the wheel of rebirth. This is the purpose for my new Monroe Hemi-sync 2-CD set titled, Destination: Higher Self! This program is designed to be played by the bedside of anyone close to their transition, providing a flow of positive spiritual reminders to remain focused on our spiritual essence during our final out-of-body experience.

SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE
(This experience has been edited for space.
You can read the entire entry by connecting to the link below.)
I've had many of what I guess would be called astral travel experiences. The confusion for me seems to stem from the fact that most do not occur on a voluntary basis as you describe. They began many years ago but have become especially frequent in the last year after losing my son. Now, I know the difference between a dream, a visitation dream and these astral experiences - they are vastly different. What I seem to be learning is the control of the astral facet of it all.
I heard your interview on Afterlife TV and so much resonated as truth. I had gone to sleep and was dreaming of being in a car I could not control (common for me). At some point I became conscious or lucid and gave up letting the car take me where it would. I began to see beings I have seen before along the road looking at me as if to say "what are you doing here?" The landscape was baron...seemingly under construction (again seen before and likely of my own making).
Upon the car's reaching an end there were several of these beings there looking none too happy. Human like but with somewhat distorted features is the best way to describe them. I was helped from the car and the one in charge was adjusting some sort of rope. I communicated the words, "do I get to see Xxxx now?" (My son). I was given a nonverbal reluctant yes as he continued with the rope.
Before I knew what was happening, I was "thrust" (for lack of a better word) into some sort of dark whirling tunnel. It wasn't scary but I had time to think... "Wait, I can't be dead...I wasn't sick, I went to dinner, came home, there was no accident" etc. I thought of my other son and felt a moment of panic. Then I heard Brian's voice...clearly...loudly...with surprise in it, "mom!" I looked for him and there he was looking just as he did when he left. He grabbed my arms and we were swirling together head to head in this tunnel. He continued..."I want to be with you too but I can't right now" I struggled to speak but could not get my voice. The speed was unbelievable.
I do not recall the length of time but I was thrust back out and woke just like I do from an astral experience - my arms over my head...still able to feel the imprint of his hands on them. It happened. I sat up with my heart beating ridiculously fast trying to take in what had just happened. For my part, I do not know what the tunnel was but I was there in it with my son. Truly one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had.
Thank you for sharing this experience with us. It is a great example of meeting a loved one who has passed. This can be accomplished through out-of-body experiences and other spiritual journeys. Remember that first hand knowledge is generally more meaningful.

A true spiritual path is invisible.
There are no churches, cathedrals, doctrines, priest craft or dogma. The path lies within each of us, patiently waiting for us to awaken and travel home. Spiritual teachers throughout the ages have said this, but few have listened. History teaches us that it requires self-motivation and a spiritual practice to enter and explore the uncharted ocean of consciousness within us.
There are various methods to experience our spiritual self; including, deep meditation, various advanced yoga methods, self-initiated trance states and OBEs just to name a few. Since our inner journey of consciousness is the direct path to our spiritual essence the key is for us to learn and practice a method of inner exploration beyond the physical. It’s imperative to recognize that an effective spiritual action plan has several essential elements. Below are the major steps that I have found to be essential. I encourage you to create your own spiritual action plan and live it daily.
Action Plan for your Spiritual Awakening and Liberation
How to Accelerate your Spiritual Evolution
Obtain accurate information about the nature of reality, your nonphysical self and your evolution through form and matter.
Create your ultimate personal spiritual intention or goal. (Higher Self Now! Spiritual Essence Now!)
Cleanse your mind of all flawed belief systems and doctrine.
Release all the energy anchors and the false self-identities that bind you to the physical body.
Learn and practice a daily method for the exploration of your consciousness. Deep trance meditation, self-initiated OBEs and various forms of yoga such as Kundalini yoga can lead to a profound experience.
Practice detachment and living in the moment. Become transparent to the swirling energies and dramas around you.
Practice unconditional love. Forgive all and release all - including yourself.
Obtain accurate information about your afterlife journey and your continuing spiritual evolution.
Create a detailed Spiritual Directive for your Transition (death). Make it a written plan.
Learn to effectively navigate nonphysical thought-responsive realities in order to experience liberation (escape velocity) from matter and form.
Destination: Higher Self
There are two CDs in this set. The first is Affirmations to Experience your Higher Self.
Affirmations to Experience your Higher Self– This is a repetition of positive statements that encourage the subconscious to move beyond the physical body, into the spiritual essence of who we really are. This can be enjoyed during sleep, meditation or even an activity that allows for you to absorb the statements. Become one with the affirmations and hold your intention as your last conscious thought.
On CD 2 there are two meditations. One is called Doorways to Your Higher Self, the other is Waves of Light.
Doorways to Your Higher Self – The purpose of this meditation is to identify and remove the specific blocks that may be holding you back from achieving your higher self-awareness. It could be fear, guilt or attachment to a physical concept. This technique will assist you to not only address, but release the limit. Once through the doors you will systematically shed those attachments that keep you from attaining the spiritual experience that you desire.
Waves of Light – With each wave of light, you will feel yourself becoming less and less attached as you become one with the light. This will assist you in achieving your destination: your higher self.
Both CDs are supported with Hemi-Sync technology. With each of these, you should be in a quiet place where you can focus on the technique. Keep a journal nearby so that you can record any insights that you gain during your meditative time.
This program can also be used for the exploration of consciousness. Music by Christopher Lloyd Clarke. Guidance manual included. Please note: These exercises are designed to take you into highly expanded states of consciousness, and do not include frequencies for grounding at the end. Therefore, if you are not a person in transition, it is imperative to ground yourself after listening. See guidance manual for more information. Features hemispheric synchronization sound technologies to balance and focus the brain. DO NOT listen to Hemi-Sync® products while driving.
