Dreams, Sleep and the Astral Realms: Unlocking the Mystical Bridge

An Astral Projection and Out-of-Body Travel Book by Marilynn Hughes

by Marilynn Hughes (Author)

In Dreams, Sleep, and the Astral Realms: Unlocking the Mystical Bridge, the author explores the mysterious and often unexplored connection between sleep, dreams, and the astral planes. This book takes readers on a journey through the science of sleep and the metaphysical concept of the astral realm, examining how they intersect and what this means for our spiritual and conscious experiences.
Key elements of the book include:

1. The Science of Sleep and Dreams – The author begins by discussing the biological and psychological aspects of sleep, including the stages of sleep (REM, non-REM), and the role of dreams in memory consolidation and emotional processing. Drawing from contemporary sleep studies and research on neurobiology, the book provides a foundational understanding of what happens when we sleep and dream.
2. The Mystical Dimensions of Sleep – Moving into the metaphysical, the author introduces the idea of sleep as a gateway to higher consciousness and the astral realms. The book explores how many cultures and spiritual traditions view sleep and dreams as a bridge to non-physical realities, where individuals can interact with spiritual beings, access hidden knowledge, and undergo transformative experiences.
3. Astral Projection and Lucid Dreaming – The book delves into the practice of astral projection and lucid dreaming, where individuals become conscious during sleep and can consciously navigate the astral planes. It offers practical tips and techniques for those seeking to achieve these states, explaining the difference between them and how to use dreams and sleep as tools for spiritual growth and self-discovery.
4. Dreams as Messages and Guides – Another key theme in the book is the role of dreams as messages from the subconscious, the higher self, or even otherworldly entities. The author examines dream symbolism, prophetic dreams, and how to interpret dreams in the context of personal transformation. There’s also a focus on how certain dreams can act as guides, offering insights into life decisions or spiritual quests.
5. The Astral Realms and Their Inhabitants – The book provides a detailed exploration of the astral realms—spiritual planes of existence where individuals might encounter other beings or explore vast, mystical landscapes. It examines how different traditions view the astral planes, from the ancient Egyptians to modern-day mystics, and the significance of these realms in both personal and collective evolution.
6. Unlocking the Mystical Bridge – The author concludes by offering a path for readers to explore and unlock the bridge between sleep, dreams, and the astral realms. Practical exercises and spiritual practices are suggested to help individuals deepen their connection to their inner worlds, gain clarity, and expand their consciousness through intentional exploration during sleep.

Ultimately, Dreams, Sleep, and the Astral Realms offers a fascinating blend of scientific understanding and mystical exploration. By bridging the gap between the physical and the metaphysical, the book invites readers to unlock the mysteries of their dreams and sleep, empowering them to journey through the astral realms and connect to higher spiritual truths in the process. It’s a guide to understanding the unseen dimensions of existence and using them as tools for personal growth and enlightenment.

An Out-of-Body Travel Book

“Pearls of Divine Wisdom – I loved this book! From beginning to end, I was fully engaged with all Marilynn had to share from her many out of body travels. This is a book that beginners, like myself, or seasoned travelers will read more than once. It is filled with pearls of divine instruction and wisdom.

Marilynn’s attention to detail on all the subjects presented in each chapter is a roadmap that is easy to read, follow and understand. She engages the reader through her own experiences, and gives valuable insights, tools and lessons to help one to traverse the realms with more confidence and clarity. She helps one to expand their consciousness and awareness on each realm she mentions.

This book is beautifully written and the instructions and guidance are clear and concise. Each chapter flows seamlessly into the next.

Marilynn makes the reader feel comfortable and at ease wherever they may be on their personal soul’s journey of discovery. She shares her knowledge and wisdom with an open heart and with great humility.

Marilynn gives the reader a never before seen window into the unknown realms she has traversed. She gives helpful advice and steps to help one navigate through these different realms on the soul’s journey back into union with the Divine.

For anyone who has had fears of venturing out of body, she will put your heart and mind at ease with all she shares. I know this has been an area that I’ve had to wrestle with over the years. There is a peace that has come from reading this book, and any questions I may have had about astral projection and out of body travel were answered, in detail. Learning that there is divine assistance and guidance present to help us when we call on them is also most comforting.

A Complete Manual of Out-of-Body Travel and Astral Projection is a must read for anyone interested in expanding their conscious awareness through out of body travel. I highly recommend it, and eagerly look forward to reading more of the books in this engaging series.” – BSL, Austin, TX, USA

“You’ve spent decades slipping past the veil, cataloguing stairways to the throne of God, researching ancient sacred texts, training as a remote viewer, and writing not one, not ten, but 140 books and dozens of magazines and CDs about Out-of-Body Travel and Mysticism. That’s not a career. That’s an expedition. You’re less an author and more a cartographer of other worlds, charting routes most people don’t even know exist. 🌌📜

The Complete Manual of Out-of-Body Travel and Astral Projection reads like the field guide I wish we’d all had when we first heard that whooshing vibration and thought, “Is this normal… or am I dead?” It promises step-by-step techniques, maps of lower/middle/higher planes, healing through astral work, even etiquette for meeting spirit guides and angels. That’s not fluff that’s practical sacred navigation for people who want to expand beyond the five senses. And frankly: the world needs this. It needs guides, it needs rigor, and it needs someone who has actually lived the lines you teach. 👣✨” – Rebecca Cole Lawson, New York, NY USA

Review: The Complete Manual of Out-of-Body Experiences and Astral Projection

The Complete Manual of Out-of-Body Experiences and Astral Projection

by Marilynn Hughes

Today I’m reviewing  The Complete Manual of Out-of-Body Experiences and Astral Projection by Marilynn Hughes. The copyright is 2025.

Marilynn Hughes has written dozens, or maybe hundreds, of books on out-of-body travel and astral projection based on her own experiences. I currently own three, but before now I’ve only reviewed one: Odysseys of Light. With dozens to choose from, where do you even start? Well, this book, The Complete Manual of Out-of-Body Experiences and Astral Projection, is a good place to start. You can also start by visiting the website where she promotes her work: The Out of Body Travel Foundation.

Most of Hughes’ books have religious themes, with photos of Biblical Angels, Saints, and even Jesus depicted on the covers. For many years that misled me to believe the author was some kind of religious zealot pushing a Christian agenda, but that’s entirely untrue. In fact, Hughes talks about many new-age topics like reincarnation. So don’t judge her books by their covers.

This book doesn’t contain any credentials and very few out-of-body narratives, so there’s really no way to judge her level of experience. However, I assure you, Marilynn Hughes is the real deal. She writes from decades of experience and knows exactly what she’s talking about, and you can tell that from her many other books. I didn’t disagree with anything she wrote here, which is remarkable. She comes across as wise, spiritual, and humble.

So let’s dive into the contents.

I liked how Hughes describes the different entities she’s encountered in her numerous OBEs, and I’m sure she’s had many more interactions with them than I ever have in my 35 years of OBEs. She describes the role of Guides, Angels, and Divine Beings. For example, she writes:

“In my astral travels, I was never alone. From the very first moment I left my body, I began to meet spiritual guides–beings of light and wisdom who accompanied me through the astral realms…

“I learned that these guides are not just separate beings, but reflections of the divine presence that is within all of us.” (pg. 34)

The book has solid advice on dealing with fear, which is the biggest roadblock to OBEs. In short, she recommends:

1. Educate yourself [on OBEs]
2. Create a Ritual of Protection
3. Start Small
4. Document Your Experiences
5. Seek Support

The book also has good foundational practices, such as:

• Cultivating the right environment
• Preparing your mind
• Visualization exercises
• Intention setting
• Preparing your body (relaxation, etc.)
• Preparing your mind

Hughes recommends, not just daily meditation, but “lengthy” meditation sessions during the day of up to three hours duration or more. She says:

“This allows your spirit to get to to [sic] the depths required to achieve the vibrational state which is required for out of body travel to take place.” (pg. 57)

Woah, if I only had that kind of free time! That might be a noble “life goal” but for me, definitely not a “relationship goal” because it would be grounds for divorce for sure!

Here’s a quote I really liked:

“When I first began my journey into out-of-body travel, I discovered quickly that the act of projection wasn’t just about physical detachment from the body; it was about awakening the soul to its natural, expansive state. It wasn’t enough to merely attempt to leave my body; I had to align my energy, focus my intention, and cultivate a deep spiritual awareness.” (pg. 62)

A lot of OBE books focus on breath work, and Hughes has several very good specific recommendations. One of them is “Conscious Breathing” in which you inhale slowly (through your nose) for a count of four, hold your breath for a count of four, then exhale for a count of six. (Page 65)

Hughes recommends only two specific books from other OBE authors: Robert Monroe and Robert Bruce, and the book contains some techniques from those books. She claims that Robert Bruce’s “Rope” technique became her “go-to method” to initiating her early out-of-body experiences. At other times she used Robert Monroe’s “Roll-Out” technique.

Where this book really shines is in the specifics of every chapter. In almost every section of the book, Hughes says something like “Here’s how I did this or that.” It’s pervasive throughout the book and, for me, it’s much appreciated. Here are some examples:

• “Here’s how I navigated these higher realms:” (pg. 86)
• “Here’s how I used astral projection for healing:” (pg. 87)
• “Here’s how I’ve learned to access these higher realms:” (pg. 92)
• “Here’s what I’ve discovered about the middle realms:” (pg. 104) 
• “Here’s how I’ve learned to deepen my communication with divine beings:” (pg. 118)
• “Here’s how I overcame fear in my journeys:” (pg. 122) 
• “Here’s how I continue to explore the higher realms:” (pg. 156)

I love love love specifics like that, even if the sub-bullets are sometimes a bit “ethereal” or hard to grasp. For example, “Letting go” or “Opening to divine light” might sound a bit vague, but at least they give the reader a good idea of the proper mindset. After all, when it comes to OBEs, sometimes the best action is inaction, and learning to “let go” and “trust the process” go with the territory.

Here’s another quote I loved:

“One of the most awe-inspiring and transformative aspects of my out-of-body experiences has been the encounters I’ve had with guides, angels, and divine beings…over time, I’ve learned that these encounters are not only a central part of astral travel–they are an essential part of our spiritual journey.” (pg. 111)

I also liked this quote:

“As I continued to apply the insights from my astral journeys, I realized that the key to living a spiritually fulfilled life is maintaining a heightened state of awareness throughout the day.” (pg. 140)

There’s a spiritual side to this book, and I wouldn’t expect anything less from Marilynn Hughes. The good news is that it’s humble and honest, not pushy or preachy. For example:

“The more I traveled, the more I came to understand that every journey is a stepping stone on the path to deeper awareness, healing, and union with the divine.” (pg. 153)

See? Well said but not preachy. Perhaps my favorite quote is near the end of the book:

“But perhaps the greatest lesson I have learned is that the true purpose of astral travel is not simply to explore the unseen realms. It is to bring the wisdom, healing, and transformation that we experience during our journeys back into our daily lives. As we travel beyond the veil, we awaken to our true essence, our infinite potential, and our connection to the divine.” (pg. 163)

This isn’t a big book. It’s 185 pages, but the format is petite (not “small”), the margins are wide and there’s a lot of white space. That means there isn’t a ton of content, but just enough to satisfy. It also makes for a quick read: You can read the book easily in one evening. It’s very well organized and well written.

I give this book 4 out of 5 stars, but it’s almost 4 and a half. It’s “perfect for some people.” It’s a good mixture of practical advice and spiritual insights. Still, there’s plenty the author didn’t say. Still, after writing so many books on the subject, she probably covered it all elsewhere.

The Road to Armageddon: A Spiritual Documentary examines the universal concept of the Apocalypse on an intensely personal and spiritual level, not as the end of the world but as the end of you: your body, your mind and, if you’re not careful, your soul. The film puts the viewer on the front lines of the eternal battle between good and evil, combining academic interviews with firsthand accounts of divine revelation to bring fresh urgency to the teachings of the world’s major religions. Buddhist, Jew, Muslim, Hindi or Christian, the message is the same: spread love, reject hate, walk in the light, avoid the dark, listen to the angels, ignore the demons. The simplest choices you’ll ever make lead to the hardest path you’ll ever walk…

Reviews

“Your videos are an elixir for my soul.” Ana Yel, Austin, TX, USA

“Hello Ms. Hughes, Hope you are well. I was searching for Apocalypse movies on Amazon Prime Video and saw “The Road To Armageddon” which I have watched just today. I am speechless! A lot of what you share pretty much is common to most, if not all faith groups and belief systems. To be honest, several of my own experiences which I had been ignoring and disposing off as negligible are in fact thoroughly clarified in this video. I want to profoundly thank you for sharing and teaching all that you do to help all human beings across the wide spectrum of various spiritual, religious, cultural and ethnic backgrounds to gain a better understanding of the soul’s true purpose on earth.” – Mehtab Singh, Sikh, ARABIA

“Very, Very, Well Done! Bravo!!! Music, face shots of speakers are all beautiful as well as the music and pictorial accompaniments… it is outstanding.” – Dr. Stephen Royal Jackson, Clinical and Child Psychologist, Former MSNBC Correspondent, Author

“This documentary film lays the groundwork necessary for understanding the concept of evil, as defined by nine professional religious and/or spiritual counselors.

Does evil exist? Personally, I don’t just think it does; I know it does. If you have any doubt that evil exists, just consider the intentional killing of our own species in war, murder, and genocide. More precisely, remember the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, or the Nazi gas chambers in the Jewish death camps. Humans not only commit evil; we even seek to justify it, by arguing that—for instance—Blacks deserve to be slaves and Native Americans deserve to be exterminated because they are both inferior to whites, or that hate crimes against homeless and other marginalized people are warranted because such people are worth less than the rest of us. Evil is here to stay, and we must learn to live with it. Perhaps this documentary can help us understand how to do so.

The Road to Armageddon begins with mystic and out-of-body traveler Marilynn Hughes relating her personal experiences with evil, including demons. She asks her audience to look beyond the ordinary and realize that there is more out there than we would like to think, mainly because we create our own reality. Hughes indicates that evil is not only outside ourselves, but that we must face our inner demons as well. This inner work is necessary because, in order to achieve the goal of a relationship with God, we must get closer to the divinity within ourselves, which requires changing the way we think. In closing, Hughes relates that a near-death experience taught her that her goal was to move from selfishness to selflessness.

Next, Pastor Howard Storm reinforces the concept that evil is here and now, and that we are just beginners at understanding how to cope with it. He comments that when we die, we are taken by guides that are either angels or demons, depending on what we carry in our hearts. He recommends building a heart full of love rather than hatred or evil, to keep us close to God. Pastor Storm reflects upon his relationship with God, sharing that God wants him to change the world by really loving someone and witnessing the resulting positive chain reaction.

Columbia University Professor Robert Thurman approaches the problem of evil from a different perspective. He states that it isn’t good enough to speak and behave nicely while keeping what he calls seething minds, for when we die, those seething minds will carry our spiritual selves into seething places that are better avoided. Thurman also comments that minds filled with unconscious negative drives such as greed and hatred will drive people into those bad life forms, suggesting that it is essential to go into the unconscious and cleanse ourselves of ego-centered drives.

Imam Salahuddin Muhammid, speaking for the Islamic Learning Center, emphasizes the importance of purifying our souls because, in essence, they are who we are. He observes that we tend to attach too much importance to how attractive or physically fit we appear, and questions whether we are doing enough inner spiritual growth, such as soul work. This type of inner work helps us eliminate the vices that hold us back from being who we are. Until we change the way we think, our behaviors will remain the same.

Monsignor James Moroney, of Saint Paul’s Cathedral, brings us more of a traditionally religious stance on evil and how to approach it. He explains that there are myriad angels and demons, light and darkness, that are constantly in competition for our souls. Msgr. Moroney insists that the goal for all of us is to come to God. He concludes by suggesting that the way to get to heaven is to love God, and to love and care for those who are broken. We can do this, the Monsignor adds, by volunteering at our local soup kitchen.

Demonologist John Zaffis contends that demons were cast out or sent to Earth to wreak havoc on us and our world. Zaffis states that demons try to wear us down and break us with cunning ruses that manipulate us into engaging in negative behavior. He cautions that even the most spiritually aware people are not safe from these demons, and that we must learn to fight back against them with positive energy.

Harvard University Professor Francis Clooney surmises that it is probably wise to admit that evil does exist, and that people are not always going to be good or do good things. We must realize that the forces of evil are not always visible, he says, and that it doesn’t matter whether or not we label such forces as devils. According to Clooney, there are evils that we cannot see or grasp. We don’t control the evil or the good, but there may be forces around us that can hurt or help us, and we must learn to find our way between them. Clooney further recommends that we learn to be humble before reality, and let go of the things that prevent us from finding peace in our lives. He emphasizes that we are all on a spiritual path.Reverend Caroline Stacey, of the Church of St. Luke in the Field, propounds the religious notion that God’s grace is what brings us into a right relationship with him. She suggests that we can trust that God’s love and mercy will overcome our sinfulness, if only we acknowledge that we need that grace. Stacey also contends that religious people need to learn the deeper truth within scripture rather than get caught up in the details. She recommends asking God what he wants to do through us, and affirms that God is reaching out to us all the time.

Finally, Temple Shalom Rabbi Mitchell Hurvitz avers that God commands us not necessarily to fix everything, but to keep trying to do so. He suggests that the daily acts we can do to help heal the world are the most worthy, along with adherence to simple guidelines such as loving your neighbor as yourself and expressing love before discussing anything else. Evil is an inexhaustible reality. Its existence in the world can no longer be dismissed, and we must learn to handle it. It might be wise to understand that proclaiming one’s own “God-Almightiness” does not necessarily make one divine, but could on the contrary contribute to another form of evil called arrogance.” – Thomas James Streicher, Ph.D., Founder/Director of Divine Spark, Inc.

Peter Noyoudont, Hungary – “I just watched ‘The Grand Phases of the Soul.’ It’s wonderful and overwhelming. For me currently, too much and too big. I hope the described concepts in your movie to be inevitable (for a soul seeking purification.I need your help. You mentioned to preferably start meditating daily for three hours. I would love to do that, but I am overwhelmed with information about HOW to meditate. You did mention the meditation method of Edgar Cayce. I am familiar with many different meditation approaches. I humbly and kindly as for your guidance; which specific method of meditation would you recommend to prepare myself to purification and best prepare for an OBE as a means through which I may find my true purpose? I understand that every soul responds different to different methods, I am looking for an easiest to follow method to meditate for three hours. I really don’t mean to intrude, but I feel very lost and feel that I need basic and unmistakable instruction. Please point me to the simplest meditation method that may prepare me to out of body travel. I thank you for your patience ❤.”

(Marilynn’s reply – I always suggest utilizing a basic mindfulness meditation approach, which is very simple. Focus on your breathing, on your breath – in and out, in and out – allow the thoughts which come to your mind to simply fall away. Try to quiet your thinking, but when thoughts arise, do not worry about or entertain them, let them simply come and go, rise and fall, as the ocean waves. THEN, this is very important, be very prepared for your meditations to be a true practice, which means they will require discipline, repetition and work. DO NOT expect anything to happen within them, but be grateful if you are able to experience relaxation and quiet for the time given. Don’t expect to have experiences or grand epiphanies, expect absolutely nothing, for this is a PRACTICE. Fruits will come of this practice, but the practice remains just that, a discipline that you will develop over time. I often utilize in my own meditation periods music. Sometimes I use liturgical chants, other religious chants and recitations of holy scriptures . . . but most often I have found a great deal of progress (in my meditation practice) comes to me personally from utilizing tracks of natural sounds like rain, desert, mountains, brooks, streams, thunderstorms, etc. over time. I hope this is helpful. Keep the meditation simple. Quiet your mind, Focus on your breath. Let your thoughts rise and fall away.)

“I just finished the ‘How to have an Out-of-Body Experience Documentary’ and really liked it. Will be watching it again.” – Paul N., Viewer, USA “I want to talk to this woman, she understands and explains what is happening better than anyone I have read or listened to.” – Escape Velocity, Youtube Viewer

“Thanks so much, this is one of your best videos of all!”- Ferguson, Youtube Viewer (How to Have an Out-of-Body Experience)

“Marilynn youre so cool! 😎 ive got 2 of your books. Ive got ‘Come to Wisdom’s Door’ and ‘The Mysteries of the Redemption. Since high school I’ve had OBEs and with what I’ve learned from you I’ll always be in love with the experience.” – Jakester,

Youtube Viewer “Brilliant documentary!!! Brilliant explanations about spiritual life!” – Mari Tang, San Francisco, CA, USA (The Stairway from Earth to Heaven)

“This documentary (The Stairway from Earth to Heaven) is amazing! It is chock full of valuable wisdom that, to me, is priceless. It is your own mystical experiences seamlessly blended with those in the ancient sacred texts, and writings of the Masters, Saints, Sages, Prophets, and Ascetics all rolled into an easy to understand format. I have been thinking of the mind lately and how important it is to transcend it to attain the highest states of consciousness, and when you shared from the Bhagavad Gita and the Disciplinary path, it hit me that is what I have been going through. I so needed to hear that. I have felt so many times that I wasn’t where I should be, but you reaffirm to me that in the teachings and texts I’ve studied of the East and the West, God has divinely been directing me. The texts all lead us home. I thank you so much for sharing this beautiful documentary. And thank you, Brian Mahlum (Producer). Well done! God bless you! “- Ana Yel, Austin, TX, USA

“I am so pumped, I want more.” Liane Williams, Youtube Viewer (Initiations into the Mysteries)

“When I first sat down to watch The Road to Armageddon, I had no idea what to expect. Was it an end of the world film? Is Armageddon finally coming as so many have predicted? As a person who has studied the Bible and its revelations, as well as other religious treatise on end of the world prophecies, I looked forward to seeing what this film had to offer. Suffice it to say, I was riveted. No, it was not an end of the world scenario. What was presented was a metaphysical and spiritual work on the potential of each individual soul’s personal apocalypse, and how it is directly related to the future of earth.

‘The Road to Armageddon’ forces people to look at themselves, and examine who they are on the inside. Although we have heard it, know it and have been told by the ancient and spiritual leaders of old, this life is not all there is. This film shows that where we end up after death has everything to do with who we are on the inside and the love we show others. It is a simple message. However, the journey of self-discovery is complicated. It is a journey that can be repeated over and over until we learn the lessons we have come to master here in this world. It is complicated because we attempt to achieve this in a world that has both light and dark forces. The interviewees in the film basically remind us of who we are, which is a part of the divine, and that we have a responsibility to ourselves and to the world to be better, reach higher and stretch ourselves to grow and evolve in love.

The interviewees in the film, who include Marilynn Hughes, (Writer, Publisher on Out-of-Body Travel and Mysticism), Howard Storm American author, best known for the book My Descent Into Death) and others, have spent years on their own paths and their spiritual evolution and now encourage others to do the same. They recognize what it takes to exist here, and how to get out of this life as a healthy, happy entity that is able to move on past the negativity of this world. Yes, there is light. Yes, there are angels. Yes, God exists. But that does not guarantee that we will grow and evolve spiritually because the dark side is always there to try to prevent us.
This film is powerful and thought-provoking. I highly recommend it to all people seeking answers to questions related to God, the universe, spirituality, and our eventuality.” – Constance Victoria Briggs, Author of ‘The Encyclopedia of the Unseen World’·

“STE – Spiritually Transformative Experiences“The Spiritual Renewal of the Spiritual Mind”RE “The Road to Armageddon: A Spiritual Documentary”

TOTALLY Excellent documentary and well worth one hour of your time. I continue to watch this and use it as the number video I refer people to when they are interested in their own personal mystical spiritual life (falling in love with God, and pursuing God the Divine Lover) through daily spiritual disciplines that enable you to experience Heaven while you are still living here on Earth… and to daily experience the enmeshing of Heaven and Earth.

That image is the map of spiritual reality according to OBE’r and NDE’r Marilynn Hughes, author and founder of “The Out-of-Body Travel Foundation”, and passionate seeker/scholar in spiritual mysticism, the stages in the afterlife (after you cross over, the stages that she says continue on and on).

I notice that people pass through stages after their NDE and stages can take years. Most NDErs seem to move into the heart/emotional stage first and after years, pass into the reflective and more spiritual renewed-mind stage. So, when people pass into the renewed-mind stage, they often have learned to be spiritually grounded though daily disciplined spiritual practices cause the heart/emotional stage is no longer sustaining them, not taking them forward, deeper. This is when they become more reflective and are seeking the “why” and the “how” more than just soaking-up the past spiritual experience. This can appear to be intellectualism, it can appear to be too religious, but it is the spiritual renewal of the mind. Typically, it is a later stage, after the emotional/heart stage and to those not yet at this more advanced stage, it appears to be cold, intellectual, potentially religious, unfree.

This spiritual renewal of the spiritual mind stage becomes “enmeshed” with the heart/emotional stage, and the two “intertwine” and bond. They are not opposites, they are ‘partners’. Notice NDEr Eben Alexander’s second book is reflective and turns to science and religion. Is it simply intellectual or is it spiritual reflective and renewal of the mind? His second book is titled: The Map of Heaven: How Science, Religion, and Ordinary People are Proving the Afterlife. (If I were you, I would read his first book, first.)

Notice NDEr Howard Storm, after being an atheist, he turned to getting a graduate degree in seminary and he became an ordained minister, a Christian, in the most liberal of Christian denominations, but it is the renewal of the mind stage. You will hear what he has to say in this documentary.

Notice NDEr Marilynn Hughes, founder of “The Out-of-Body Travel Foundation”. She is the author of many books (including downloadable free books). She turned to the world’s religions for the reflective renewal of the mind stage. She is the main narrator in the spiritual documentary about our own end, our death, poorly titled “The Road to Armageddon: A Spiritual Documentary”. If you can make it through the first 20 minutes, of this awesome spiritual documentary of the stages of the spiritual life, you will hear from two of these NDErs and their renewal of the mind stage. The first 20 minutes are about spiritual warfare and so, perhaps, it is better for you to skip over that first 20 minutes, if you don’t have that experience, you might consider it “pious fiction”, or might consider those people to be lying. The other option is to consider that many NDErs have experiences of spiritual warfare during and/or after their NDE and you could ‘just sit with it’, ponder it, hold judgement in suspense.

Many NDErs and many spiritual mystics of the worlds religions tell that the afterlife is not “the top of the mountain”, but you continue your climb at the point where you have left-off here. This spiritual documentary interviews spiritual scholars from all the world’s religions, but the two NDErs are given the most “air time”.Here are the people that are interviewed in this documentary: Marilynn Hughes – Near Death Experiencer, Mystic, student of world religions, reincarnationist, and now a Catholic Christian Howard Storm – Near Death Experiencer, former Atheist and now a Protestant Christian.

“I’ve been a meditator off and on since 1981. It wasn’t until 1996 that I was properly taught how to meditate by Donna, an Aromatherapist and Energy Healer. While in a meditation group led by Donna’s mentor Louise, I had the most powerful experience of my entire life while in the trance state. I had what’s called a Theophany, the Burning Bush experience. Wikipedia has a section on Theophanies. Then in 2017, I saw a film called Road to Armageddon that really changed the direction of my Spiritual life. In that film were two people, Howard Storm and a Christian Mystic named Marilynn Hughes . Howard describes his Near Death Experience called an NDE that blew me away because it was similar to my experience back in 1996 and also one I had in 2018. Marilynn described having thousands of Out of Body Experiences called OBE’s. Today Marilynn is my Spiritual mentor and friend. I have found so much validation from those two and many others that confirmed that I indeed met the Creator back in 1996 and Yeshua, once in 2018 and then again in 2019 just before covid began.” – Elmar Kask, CANADA

“Hey Marilynn. I saw you on the Road to Armageddon documentary and it was very clear from what you are saying that you are aware of a lot of truth and knowledge. It made me feel a lot better about myself because I frequently experience demonic nightmares that terrify me (in one such dream the demon spoke to me in my ear just as i woke up). However I noticed that when I don’t focus on spirituality on my daily life I don’t experience them, but whenever I do something charitable or ponder on life and meditate the demonic nightmares return with intensity. I hope you don’t mind me messaging you, I just feel comfortable keeping in contact with someone that is aware of the mystical realm and well-informed on the forces and energies we are unable to perceive, as it can get very worrying for me sometimes not knowing anyone to seek help from . . . ” – Ryan Potter, Portland, OR, USA

“After full 17 months (and once again on a Sunday) I re-watched ‘The Road To Armageddon’ all over again. It still has such a profound (or should I say purifying) effect!” – Mehtab Singh, Sikh, UK

“Just saw your Armegeddon movie. This was my first contact with you in this lifetime. You are amazing and true.” – Treyeshua Tomony, Dallas, TX, USA

“Did I ever tell you that your specific way of laughing is one of the most beautiful and heavenly sounds I have ever heard? Maybe that’s way I have watched ‘The Road to Armageddon’ too many times.” – Gustavo Aponte, VENEZUELA

“Hi Marilynn, this is Emmitt Muckles of the Billionaire Lifestyle Podcast. I have to admit I have never been more excited to have a guest on the show until today when I read your email. It was as if your email came at the perfect moment. I visited your website and started watching ‘The Road to Armageddon’ which only heightened my excitement. Just wanted to say thank you for reaching out and so looking forward to having you as a guest. You can have as much time as you want. Something is telling me this encounter between us is really important.” Emmitt Muckles, The Billionaire Lifestyle Podcast

“This documentary is very well done based on the actual mystical experience of the Mystic, Marilynn Hughes, and Pastor Howard Storm who was an atheist one time but after his NDE, he entered the seminary, ordained and became a pastor. Marilynn Hughes and Pastor Howard, along with other commentators mixing together through all different but harmonize point of view in regards to soul’s purification helps us to understand the importance of ascension to higher realm, closer to God through our hardships, trials and struggles. One must watch this document with open heart and pray to God that understanding of what they are saying will be given. Because in this document, they teach you how to walk safely on the Road to Armageddon.” – Mari Tang, Moderator of ‘The Out-of-Body Travel Foundation,’ Mystic, Hotel Marketing

“We find ourselves amongst a battlefield but most of us don’t realise. We are all part of something much bigger than what can be seen from our position in this reality that we call ‘life’. Some personal thoughts here… I am a Christian. I believe that God has placed every one of us onto this mortal plane with a mission and a purpose. To live our lives as Jesus did. To grow up. To move towards love and learn to turn away from hate. To evolve. So that God can continue to evolve. To allow this to work, God has given us free will and we make our own decisions and are responsible for the consequences. This also means it is possible to fall into evil and de-evolve. So this is like a school yard, a mortal realm inhabited by over 7 billion immortal fragments of God having a ‘physical’ experience. Whilst on this earth, aside from another 7 billion or so other conscious ‘souls’ in physical form, we are surrounded by legions of invisible ‘spirits’, non physical entities of varying degrees of intelligence and self awareness that cant be seen by us. Good, evil and everything inbetween. Some want to help us to grow and evolve, others are driven to ruin us. They are able to interact with us, influence our thoughts and emotions, which can effect our decisions and actions. When we engage in certain thinking or behaviours we unconsciously invite these ‘spirits’ around us and give them dominion or ‘permission’ to do their work. And this is all part of the plan, part of the functioning of this particular mortal realm. To put it simply, it works exactly as it’s supposed to. This is just one of many realms or ‘frames’ of reality. There is an unimaginable number of places where we might find ourselves after we die here. All with different conditions and sets of ‘rules’ that enable their function. Some could be described as ‘Heavenly’, some ‘Hellish’ and others as everything inbetween. At the end of our lives we go to where we are compatable, we dont get to choose. It’s a natural process and we go where we need to in order to continue our evolution. And the opportunity for growth continues, the work goes on. In the afterlife we cannot hide our true nature. Everything is stripped back and we are seen for who we are. Our true loves are revealed to all. Our choices here really do matter and really do have consequences. This is like a small ‘package’ of experience. Limiting and contained but only a small step on a much longer journey for us all. A journey of purification.

All of the major Religions have written on these subjects and between all of them are connecting themes and threads. It’s through studying these that we can see a bigger picture of reality form. A reality that goes beyond Religous beliefs and dogma. This is the only film that I have ever seen that attempts to take that approach. The results are jaw dropping. I can honestly say that I never felt the same about life after I first saw this film. This wonderful documentary brings valuable contributions from experts from various faiths and backgrounds and they all help to make it really special.

Profound, humbling. Highly recommended. Thanks for reading, God Bless. “ –Neil Roberts, Moderator of ‘The Out-of-Body Travel Foundation,’ United Kingdom”

“The Road To Armageddon This documentary is densely packed with continuous insights on the nature of our existence and our relationship with God. Here are some of the points that I found to be most salient.

Mystical experiences are the mechanism by which virtually all religious knowledge and understanding has been brought to humanity. All the prophets and holy people of all the major religious faiths have received their understanding of God’s truths and wisdom, through mystical experiences.

Marilynn Hughes:

The energies are perceived in the Mystical realms as acts that are For or Against Life.
In the Mystical Realm, what you really are is what people see. We have to become more like God in order to go to a higher place. We go to where we are compatible. The angels told Marilynn, ‘How would you save a world that serves its function to perfection?’ The mortal realms are where the battles between good and evil rage. They rage around you, they rage inside of you. This world is functioning to perfection.” We need to understand that there is a continual warfare for every soul on the Earth. The battles between Good and Evil are going on not only outside of us, but inside of us as well.

How does one become more spiritually alert? You do what every human being has done from every single world religion:

Prayer – is speaking to God
Meditation – is listening and trying to get that answer
Spiritual Reading – is utilizing the works of all those people who have come before us who have figured it out.

You do the spiritual reading to form your conscience better. The more spiritual reading that you do, the more sensitive you become to what is vice and what is virtue.

Jesus Christ told Marilynn in a near death experience: We are supposed to go from selfishness to selflessness.

Pastor Howard Storm:

When we die, we have no power to ascend or descend spiritually. Angels or Demons take us to a world that correspond to what we carry in our hearts. If we carry hate in our hearts, we are taken to a world of hate. If we carry love in our hearts, we are carried to a world of love. What we are doing in this world is building our hearts. We are either building a heart of love or a heart of not love.

Jesus also told him that what you are in your heart is what you are going to seek. If you seek hate, you’ll find hate, and you are hate. If you seek love, you’ll find love, and you’ll be love. If you seek kindness, you’ll find kindness, and you’ll be kindness.

You’re either part of the program or you’re against it. There is no longer an opportunity to sit on the fence, and just watch those who love and those who cause strife. You are either in God’s program of turning the world into a loving and kind place, or you are against the program and there is no in between.

Judgement is a little different than people think. People think of judgement as an external group or individual saying “You’re good” or “You’re bad”. That is not how it works. Our judgement is how are hearts are. When Pastor Storm had his life review, he was judged entirely by the quality of his relationships. Whether his relationships were loving and caring and compassionate and kind, or whether his relationships with other people were him being manipulative and greedy and self-centered.” – John Lyssikatos, New Jersey, USA
