Kriology II Recording 19
"The only way you will know that you’re immortal is by stepping outside the body. It will change you, because you will no longer believe, you will know. It will change you because you’ll realize you’re not the body. And you’ve actually, literally stepped out of your mind. You’re not your mind either. You’re consciousness.” - Sri Shelliji |
In this recording, Kriyananda teaches about what students will encounter on the astral planes.
"And the experience I had, I’ve said it a couple times, some of you may not know it so I can tell it again, of going with Shelly up into the astral. And Shelly says, “Watch this.” And he walks up, and it was a Catholic heaven, and he sees this man lying on a slab and he’s dead. Shelly pokes him. He’s dead. Shelly pokes him again, he’s dead. Shelly says “Hey! Hey!” And he pokes him two or three times. And after a few times the guy opens his left eye and says, “Leave me alone, I’m dead.”
