Previous night I had an OBE, I woke up in the middle of the night and felt this electric pressure feeling in my body, I could not move or do anything I knew that my body was asleep and my mind was awake. I knew that I was going to have an OBE so I thought what should I do when I get out, maybe I should check if the birds and animals are aware of me in this state. After a few minutes I popped out, and while out I tried to figure out how to see things around me I just saw darkness and nothing else. No one was around me and I felt alone in a endless space of emptiness, I thought I should call out to someone because I have had this experience before and someone came but as the person came I woke up. But in this experience I asked not to be sent back but rather to send me on my path to experience. I had my thoughts what to experience and suddenly it was day somewhere around the world and it was hot outside not cold as it is here in Iceland. I was over the see flying and then I saw some birds I tried to get there attention but nothing happened, so I thought maybe if I touch them, as I flew neer the birds and tried to touch them they flew away. I lost interest in this experience so I thought how is it to go underwater. As I dived into the see I saw corals and fish around me, but suddenly I thought I should take a breath and it feelt suffocating so I popped inside my body again unharmed.
With this experience I noticed how attached I am to my physical body and how my physical life controls my spirit.
I've thought about this a lot too. When I'm in OBE I'm out the door and ready to explore. Actually, in OBE, I feel my bodies desires still motivate the spirit. That's kind of scary. It makes me think about Samsara, how we continually get reborn after death because we're addicted to the bells and whistles of the material world.
ReplyDeleteBut it's more so in dreams where I live out my dreams as if I were awake. I've heard it said "we spend our waking life day dreaming and spend our dreams as if we are awake." It seems backwards but that's been my experience.
Yes true, it seems for me that most experiences I have are unplanned and I really don´t have a clue what I should do so I try to check if someone around me can help. But mostly the freedom of flying is awesome.
