I meditated while feeling a drop in the heart (void-bliss-union)

Today, I meditated during the day. I chose to meditate with my legs stretched out in a surf chair because I tend to fall asleep easily in a traditional sleeping posture. I allowed my mind to dissolve into emptiness without thought. When I do this, I feel a drop in my heart and experience bliss. This is the Tibetan Esoteric Buddhist method of practicing void-bliss-union. After this, I continued meditating in a sleeping posture.

Following this, I experienced an astral projection within the room. To stabilize my astral body, I chose not to leave the room but instead continuously moved in circles within it. As I did this, I kept chanting mantras, clasping my hands, and floating. After a significant period, sexual desire arose, and then the astral projection ended.

Previously, when I meditated during the day without thought, I often achieved astral projection, but my astral body was usually unstable. This time, however, I also meditated while feeling the drops and bliss in my heart, which may have contributed to the extended duration of this astral projection.
