Dr Robert Crookall - More Astral projections
R.Thurston-Hopkins has published details of "dreams" by Carroll Levis which suggest astral projection. Hopkins said,
"Ever since he was a child, Levis can remember flying in his dreams. When he wakens after one of these imaginary fights, he is almost positive he can fly." He quoted Mr Levis as follows:
"I always seem to start the fight from a hill-top on the edge of a cliff. My body becomes rigid as I stretch out my arms. My arms. My muscles become tense, then, slowly, with arms outstretched, motionless from my sides, I rise from the ground and fly through the air. As I leave the ground, my body moves faster and faster, until finally I fly very high and at, a terrific speed.
I can remember flying over London, New York, Paris and my native Vancouver.
Sometimes I visit all these cities in one dream ... I do not experience the slightest fear of falling; instead, it is a highly gratifying and satisfying experience, a dream-state I enjoy and look forward to with pleasure-it is sheer ecstasy."
