ALBERT TAYLOR, PH.D., is an aeronautical engineer and scientist who spend almost two decades evaluating satellite system designs and many confidential government program. Currently a metaphysical researcher, Taylor is an active member of the International Association of Near Death Studies, and a participant in the Monroe Institute’s Voyagers program. He lives in Los Angeles. – back of book

Can out-of-body experiences help shape our destinies? In this amazing account, a former NASA aeronautical engineer and space researcher Albert Taylor shines a dazzling light into the tunnel of the unconscious mind. From the deathlike night paralysis and lucid dreams if his childhood – dubbed “witch rides” by his grandmother- to his later quest to explain these extraordinary episodes, Taylor learned to identify the early signs of his facility for out-of-body experiences, also known as astral projection.
Through extensive research and experimentation, Taylor learned to control his incredible flights of “soul travel,” enabling him to move beyond our physical plane, go to distant places, communicate with the dead, and gain psychic insights and miraculous healing power. Ultimately, he came to a deeper understanding of his own role on Earth, and the meaning of life and death. Now, Taylor shares his remarkable journey of discovery and show how we too can develop this phenomenal ability – offering striking proof of dimensions beyond our own. – back cover

“Often I would wake up fully aware of my surroundings; I could hear and see, but I was incapable of moving. I felt paralyzed!” - Introduction page xvi

“.. but later I woke up in the middle of the night vibrating... but in time I realized that the vibrations were another part of the astral experiences. I would later discover that the vibrations are a signal that my consciousness is transitioning to a higher level of reality. The astral plane, as metaphysicians refer to it, is the next level above the physical. When I finally learned to control the vibrations, I was able to access planes of consciousness beyond the astral. It appears that my soul body vibrates or oscillates at a particular rate. The non physical beings that inhabit these realms also appear to be at various vibrational states. I wonder if the more and individual spirit evolves, the higher the soul consciousness vibrates. “ -March20, 1993 page 6

“Soon I was flying over the neighborhood. Below me was what looked like a swimming pool. ……I became aware that two or three figures were standing just beyond the edge of the pool, slightly beyond my vision. I felt as if the figures were observing me, like teachers monitoring a playground.” - March28, 1993 page 7

“Then something happened that would permanently alter my out-of-body experiences. The softest, kindest female voice that I have ever heard spoke into my ear. ……….
Not only had I seen, felt and heard an apparition, it decided to communicate. I guess if it hadn’t been aware of my fear of spirits before, it was now! How patient my guides were during my earlier explorations. If only I’d know that something wonderful and totally beyond my imagination was trying to open a dialogue.” - September26, 1993 pg17

“I recalled Dr. H. explaining that sometimes people create vehicles to move about in during an out-of-body experience……….On the astral plane things that are self-generated appeared to be as real as in the physical realm. …….
Later I would have find out two important things. The first is when I travel out-of-body on the physical plane, I seem to operate within the laws of time and space. But traveling at a higher vibratory level, there is no time! By this I mean I have had experiences above the astral that seemed like hours, but when I returned and reconnected with my body, only a few minutes had passed.” - October23, 1993 pg24

“Later, I would discover that in fact the nonphysical entities I had seen were trying to communicate with me, but I was too preoccupied with suppressing my fear. This kept me from raising my own vibratory level to that of the hooded figures – almost like partially tuning into a television station where you can pick up the video but not the audio. This was also one of my first encounters with what I later found out are guiding spirits. These spirits come and go depending on the needs of the one being guided.” – Feb21, 1994 pg31

“How long had these three been stuck in this .. pseudo reality? I remember Dr. H. explaining that when people die, they sometimes become prisoners in their own self-created belief systems. For example, an individual may pass on and not know it, or refuse to accept his own death; then he may continue to ‘haunt’ an old stomping ground, castle, hotel, etc.” -Mar14, 1994 pg 35.

“This experience was a major clue for me about the properties of the physical world. As humans, most of us are aware of nothing beyond what our five senses tell us. But to a nonphysical spirit or soul traveler, the physical plane is something to perceive only if one chooses to do so. So, if I can look past the physical world just by focusing my thoughts, then how real can it be or how important can it be? Is it just an illusion our five senses have convinced us of? Have we all agreed the physical plane exists in order for it to continue as a learning environment for souls? “ - Jan14, 1995 pg 50

“During that early out-of-body experience in April 1993 something happened that forever changed me. While I floated there above my body, all of a sudden I felt as if my consciousness was somehow opened up, and information about everything was abruptly poured in. For the first time in my life I had absolutely no questions about anything. For a fleeting period of time I felt that I knew everything. Suddenly the ups and downs of the earth life system made sense. All the mysteries, frustrations, disappointments, and miracles, all had a distinct purpose….. And while I was in the midst of this phenomenon I had the overwhelming feeling of finally being home.” –pg 55

“I couldn’t help but notice the luminescent brilliance of my spiritual friend. The warm angelical glow that emanated from him was awe-inspiring. Then without warning, I received mental information that obliterated the last remnants of my religious upbringing.
I want to share what I now believe to be and inescapable self-realization. My guide, my guardian angel, my Otto-matic pilot, I believe, is my higher self. It stretches far beyond my imagination to fabricate a concept like this on. But I believe the being is me in a higher form of consciousness. An inner part of me somehow understood that this ‘Oversoul’ has been with me from my physical beginning. In essence, he has always been with me, and always will be.” - Oct31, 1994 pg 75.

“I wonder how many times a spirit has communicated with my soul unbeknownst to my earthbound self. Is this how these beings guide us during the course of our lives? And is this guidance normally on a subconscious level? I can’t help but think about the many times I’ve suddenly remembered a dream that was somehow suppressed or forgotten.” –Nov17, pg 81
“I also want to point out that during the out-of-body experience the power of thought is a tool that must be handled carefully. Anything you can imagine you will see or experience. This alone indicates the awesome capabilities of our soul.
I have come to believe that thought is just as powerful in the physical as in the astral plane or beyond. After all, everything around you presently began as a thought in someone’s mind; it just didn’t manifest instantly as it would have on the astral plane.” – pg91.

“it has been well documented that during hypnosis and after a near-death experience, hundreds of people have reported experiencing a detailed review of their lives. How many times have we heard the expression, ‘My life flashed before my eyes!’
Sometime after exiting the tunnel, a life review must be endured. I said endured because looking back at one’s own life has been described as a mixture of pleasure and devastating sadness. The extent of sadness usually depends on how kind or cruel a person has been to others. Those experiencing near-death have described feeling the exact same pain, sadness, and hurt they thoughtlessly and selfishly caused another.” Pg 96.
