Consciousness and Evolution (2) - Is there any danger in Astral Projection? — YouTube from the CEC Library

When people ask me about the dangers of astral projection, I always make a joke: imagine that you carry out an astral projection, your spirit leaves the body, someone arrives with a pair of scissors and cuts the silver cord, enters your body, and runs off with it, and you, in despair, run after your own body. This joke illustrates the impression that there is danger in out-of-body projection.

In reality, when you leave the body, your Psychosoma (spiritual body) does not disconnect completely; a part remains connected to the physical body. The physical body is our base of learning and existence on Earth. The silver cord is the etheric double: one part stays inside the physical body, anchoring the astral body, and the other remains connected to the astral body. If something happens—such as a snap or wind—you return immediately to the physical body without problems. We get frightened, but the experiences I have had lead me to understand that there is no real danger in astral projection: no external threat can reach your body before you do.

I believe that the only things that can cause us harm—and I stress that this is a thought of my own—are our emotional contexts, because fear can somatize in the physical body. If there were so many external threats, the spirits around us would already be disturbing our lives. However, their dimension is different, and the relationship occurs at the level at which they find themselves. Those close to us, such as relatives and friends, may give us intuitions and perhaps guide us in some way, but they do not represent a major threat.
