A description of the experience
Oliver Fox- Astral Projections
I then willed to travel to a certain temple which I have been told once existed in Allahabad. I moved off at great speed and came to rest in a modern brilliantly lighted room. Here a man and a woman were seated at a table, having a meal. They did not seem to see me.
Again I repeated my desire ‘Temple – Allahabad – India – in the past’
And now it seemed to me there was a sort of hole or break formed in the continuity of the astral matter; and through this, in the distance – as though viewed through a very long tunnel – I could see something indistinct which might have been an entrance to a temple, with a statue still further away showing through it.
I then moved forward again, but to my disappointment came to rest almost immediately in another room, where three women were seated at a table which also bore the remains of a meal. A fourth woman – pretty, with fair hair and blue eyes – was standing up in the act of leaving the table. Apparently, none of them could see me.
Sticking to my objective, I once more repeated; ‘Temple – Allahabad – India – in the past’.
The tunnel arrangement was coming into view again, then something must have occurred which broke my trance – though what I do not know. Instantly I rushed back to my body and awoke.
