You are holding a unique book in your hands. This is an eyewitness account of hundreds of out-of-body experiences, and the person experiencing them is a very good observer. There has never been anything comparable to this book. “Journeys Out of the Body” is a classic work on out-of-body experiences and astral travel. A successful American businessman encountered this phenomenon against his will and, guided by amazing courage and common sense, began to study it. Unlike the superstitious occultists, Robert Monroe studied his own experiences objectively and impartially; from the very beginning he used a scientific approach, began to develop a unique technique and showed himself to be one of those rare people who are ready for experimental cooperation with scientists. Monroe, with humor and sobriety of reason, describes only what he saw and felt, without resorting to idle speculation, which is often characteristic of interpretations of unusual and incomprehensible events. But Monroe now uses the word “death” only in quotation marks. Robert Monroe for a long time remained almost the only representative of the "scientific school" among the many people who declare that they have unusual psychic abilities. By the time the physician Raymond Moody confirmed the widespread occurrence of out-of-body experiences in moments of clinical death, the famous Monroe Institute was already crowded with volunteers eager to experience this phenomenon personally. Monroe also describes a method for developing the ability to experience out-of-body experiences. For the editor of this book, the “vibrations” began already in the computer chair. What followed was a real OBE.
