Sleep paralysis or demonic assault

Well Im seeing a lot about psychic vampires and fear and fending them off but my experiences above were like positive messages for me. Heres the last one I was coming to.


I used to share the room with my older brother so his bed was on the opposite wall. Im laying on my side in my bed facing him... and falling asleep, noise comes and cant breathe etc.. I can hear a fluttering sound, must be a bird, cant open my eyes to see, and its getting louder cause its coming close to my face, so Im scared thinking its going to claw my eyes out or something.

Gradually I can open my eyes, [note they arent really open - I know because when I do wake up I opened my eyes] the room is dark and I can just see this fuzzy form of a bird fluttering in front of my face. My eyes are drawn away from it to the far end of the room, suddenly this flood of yellow light starts to come up thru the cracks in the floorboards, if you can imagine like beams, board by board until my room was alight with yellow.. seemed like a Steven King film scene.

The room looks the same as usual.. my brother is asleep across the way.. Im still on my side... Im seeing it either in my mind/dreamy or 'thru my eyelids' real on another plane..... This is all happening fast too.

Now the room is alight faintly with light, Im drawn back to the bird which is now starting to move off and out the window. I could see that it was like an OWL. [see in the dark.. demon lillith related? illuminati ] ??? just plain enlightened symbol? ]

Im still fighting to breathe and move and shout my brother, I remember thinking I cant shout with my mouth closed. Eventually at the point of practically dying for breathe I managed to back up to the wall and sit upright with this force still pushing on my chest. [no Ive not actually moved]
Theres an orb of light now at the end of my bed, about my height in the air 5'10, beach ball size. I think it was like yellow in the center with red outside so a kinda orangey yellow orb... which Im presuming the force is coming from.

Well now Im just starting to get angry because I need to breathe and Ive had enough, my getting mad released the pressure and I lunged forward off the wall.. [cause in my mind/spirit I was pushing forward against the force] the whole atmosphere relaxed, and in the center of the orb I saw a face appear..... and it was ME... smiling...

Then I woke up, I flew off the side of the bed dragging the covers with me to go wake my brother. --- But I was still asleep!!! ---

Then I woke up for real!! [freaky] still on my side, almost falling out the bed with the covers

Well I laugh now, I was terrified.. but it meant something. And it stopped for years after that as if Id beaten it.

Maybe it was a test... Ive really no idea.

I have also experienced Sleep Paralysis, accompanied by the Loud Ringing in the ears. It started happening about 2 years ago, around the time my parents were getting divorced, i had just broken off a 2 year relationship, and I wasn't used to being in my parents then "empty" house. I figured it was my own fear, causing these dreams.

The ringing starts first, and then I lose movement in my legs and my arms. I try to kick, or scream, or move, and nothing happens.... At first, I actually believed that I was awake when it was happening, because I could look around and see everything around me. I could hear the hum of my fishtank.

I started sleeping with the light on, thinking that would help. It didn't. It started happening in the middle of the day too, while I was napping on the couch. When it started happening in the day, I started to worry. Thinking maybe some evil energy or something was harrassing me.

I started to really pay attention when it was happening, and not squirm, or move, just look around. I started to notice, that SOMETHING was always out of place in these dreams. For ex. One dream I had, the fan in my room was behind my desk chair...when in fact, the fan is by my bed. Another dream I had, my curtains were open, when I woke up, they were closed. Little things like this, got me thinking it was just a dream.

It stopped for about 6 months. Just last week, I had another one, except in this one, I was being moved out of my bed and dragged up the stairs. I was able to move my arms and my hands, and in my dream, I was trying to turn on a light, and knock things over. I was being dragged by my feet, although I couldn't LOOK at what was dragging me. In my dream, I had knocked over my CD Player, which of course made a loud crashing noise, and when I woke up, I was still tucked into my bed, the same way I feel asleep just half an hour before, and my CD Player was still set up by the door. Just as it was before.

The best I can figure, is that it really is, just Sleep Paralysis. And, that when it happens, I get scared by the fact that I can't move. And my fear, is what makes the dream worse. I've been under a lot of stress lately (Final Exams), so I figured that is what triggered the last dream. I can't speak for everyone, but that is just my opinion on the topic. I believe that my own stress and state of mind causes these bad dreams....but who knwos?

Yes it is terrifying when you realize you can't move, not even your eye lids, you are powerless. However I realized that this whatever it is does not kill me therefore I decided the next time it happened just to go with it, run with it and let it go its course. This is easier for me as I have never seen the dark entities described by some people during sleep paralysis, I imagine its alot harder to just go with it if one of these is looking down on you.

Someone told me once the noise can be used as a gateway into the astral plane. What you do is you empty your mind of everything and then listen to the noise, listen to it so much that is enters your mind and you then hear what it is saying. I did this once and although I didn't enter any astral plane I suddenly found myself remote viewing random places and people that Id never met.

I've never heard this before, But I will give it a try the next time it happens. Just going with the noise and seeing where it goes...But sometimes the Noise REALLY hurts my ears...

What does your noise sound like? Is it ringing? Or drilling? Or what?

10 years ago when SP started for me the ringing was deafening, very loud like a train going through my head. Its only recently after Ive started doing meditation that its become a quite vibration. I don't think without meditation it would have become quiter. I think its because Ive become more spiritually aware and I now "hear" the sound clearer.

reply to post by Mr Green


Mine is like a REALLY loud Painful Deafaning Ringing/Drill. It also feels like its vibrating in my ears though. I was at the Dentist a few weeks ago, and i heard the Drill while they were drilling out half my tooth. The vibration from the drill is what it kind of feels like. And the Drill/Ringing noise is very high pitched.

I shall give Mediation a try!! Thanks!

reply to post by CA_Orot


Yes thats exactly what the noise is like, my friend psycho81 has a thread in skunk works on chakra meditation that will help you, its rather a long thread though Im afraid but the techniques are at the start. It also covers lucid dreaming and astral projection, all these things are linked.

I have been suffering from sleeping disorders for yonkers now. It all started with ringing ,shooting zing sounds, lame feelings, cannot scream ,seeing myself as i sleep and i cannot get back in my body, flying around in my room/s, crawling on the floor to get back to my body, seeing my mother drinking a cuppa while i scream for help to no avail.

I went for medical tests to the tiring max and ended up with a "sleep disorder" ..insomnia the main one. It did not happen every night but it could hit me a few in a row then disappear for a few. I have gone through truly vigorous tests to satisfy my mental well being by the hand of science. I was in church non stop, grabbed every opp when people were prayed for. Nothing helped.

One night 13 years ago, i was 23 as i fell away to lala something grabbed my "soul", i was ripped from my body, sounds weird but the only way i can explain this. I tried to get back to my body (as mentioned above this was the time i was crawling on the floor to get to my body). I could see my body struggling to breathe, myself in soul felt i was getting weaker and whatever grabbed me is going to get me and it was not (a) nice thing/s.

I awoke the next morning in weary but nonetheless "happy" mood with goosebumps and an amazing feeling of freedom. I knew right there and then something bailed my ass out of something evil. I went to a pastor the same day whom some friends organized to meet, he and 3 others did a prayer (i don't like to call it an exorcism as i did not speak any different or reacted violently). One of the three "helpers" left as she claimed she saw something horrible/monstrous with/next to me which no one else saw.

I realize today they did not heal/save me but i saved myself by asking The Supreme for help and accepting Him. This is not gobble and i really don't care who believes me and those that will still argue such things are not demonic ,i believe all are related to a demonic activity we choose not to admit or see.

@ the OP ,IMO you need to start a personal relationship with God,Jesus and The Holy Spirit. Stay clear from flesh who wants something in return to help you ,yes i am talking about men who use God for their gain. God will lead you to a doctor if this can be cured medically and He will help you when it is out of our human jurisdiction. You just need to start a convo with Him. Things can get tougher at first as demons do fight for your destruction but through all they cannot have you when you have Him,fact.

I was laughing about your "couch", i still sleep on the couch as much as i can, The Trinity and my couch, my save haven on earth. I still have insomnia but no feel good "fly arounds OBE's" to "ripped out of my body" experiences.

On a side note..in the beginning this OBE's ,lucid dreams can be attractive but be careful not to tread to far and if you want to stop doing it things change, to a darker "outside" ..they don't like when you notice it has gone too far.

I also strongly believe that Meditation can help with a lot of problems. When you fear something you really got to question what it is you fear, why you fear it, and where does the fear come from. Seek your inner self and ask it “What is it I fear about this situation”

Like the ringing in your ears, if it was a nice soothing sound would it bother you? Think of it as tuning in a radio. The message will become stronger once you hit the right frequencies, As MrGreen said it would become clearer. You just have to filter through the noise and open up to the problem, Question the problem then shift you awareness into the problem. Once you are truly aware of the problem you are separate from the problem.

I am not going to say don’t see a Dr though, But if you want to try this then ask your Dr what he thinks of you trying out meditation.

Well done MG for explaining more about Meditation, It changed my life for the better and it’s only right to share the happiness.

I've seen dark entities, felt the paralysis, had the electrical feeling like something was bursting from my brain to my feet and also the loud buzzing sound but also other sounds, like distant sounds that I should not be able to hear.... and also the sounds of distant conversation, but totally indescipherable, like a foreign language.

It's actually ok because the more i read about other peoples experiences I learn about my own it feels like everytime I fall asleep I hear this loud vibrating noise just before I doze off...so what I have been doing is just not going to sleep until I can't hear it anymore and the other thing is I have heard the same voice more than 3 times saying something different each time this last time I couldnt make out what it was sayin exactly but it sounded like it mentioned a name a name of someone I'm really close to so to me the only way to avoid is to not sleep

reply to post by TyrantFlameViper


Hi thanks. Ive noticed theres always a really faint high pitch sound all the time anytime, much like the noise the tv set gives off. When Im going to sleep I hear it more cause its quiet. I think if I focus on that and get lost in it it can get louder and become that SP sound, usually I'l snap out of it before it hurts.

Maybe its our blood singing... (DNA) our own awakening DNA?


I think SP should go into the research projects on ATS.

reply to post by P-a-r-a-d-o-X-2


Blood awakening ...? Like a natural evolution or something else..? Because I do hear the noise and that is about the point when I realize i can't move

reply to post by TyrantFlameViper


Yeah in a nutshell thats what I mean. Have you done much reading on DNA? if not you should try when possible. DNA is like a cosmic radio, transmitter / reciever, a cosmic internet even.


Another term for the evolution would be under new age stuff like ascension and DNA encoding, where I distrust so much information I dont know wtf...

Im aware the new age ''sciences'' [quack sciences] are plentiful with lies but there is truth among them.

What better way to hide the truth than by surrounding it with lies?
Or what better way to hide a lie than by surrounding it with truths? or.. half truths

overload. lol

Read this link about frequencies and DNA, great site to bookmark as theres a lot of advanced stuff there and plenty of videos, red ice creations.

What Are The Ancient Solfeggio Frequencies?

The more data we have the bigger the imagination gets with its new possibilities.

Quantum physics is interesting too... the observer is always being observed right back... and our observing changes whats observed that infamous 'double slit' experiment has always stuck in my mind have you seen it? I think this has something to do with SP.. because of the watching experience..


Tho there is the simple religious view... its all god and satan.. that way all the science of how things work dont matter, cause its just like focusing on how a car works rather than just driving the damn thing from A to B and getting 100% practical use out of it... so this point I can understand with religion..

Beliefs work.. if we believe them.. as do placebos... so sometimes then it is best to keep the truth silent?

uugghhh..

Peace

Apparently in India SP was thought to be one of the 'signs of approaching enlightenment' .. it was called 'witnessing sleep' - this is what Im feeling. [really feeling by the way.. I mean I get goose bumps and tingling reading that.. so I feel its true]

Its also said that Hindu demons may assail those making strides towards their own enlightenment and the good of all mankind. [tingle tingle]

It does make sense because not everyone on this planet cares about anything other than their routine lives and chores, and have no interest in evoluting even if they can.. so its a minority of us into knowledge.

''Statistics'' [?????] report that 20 to 40% of people experience it...... thats a minority again.. if correct.

I just got that off a simple video on google here so Im going to research the india bit.

In Japan and China its to do with 'ghosts'... but everything weird in those countries is to do with ghosts... so it all comes under supernatural..

Im pretty much given up on the old versions of old hag and incubus... cause my experiences and many others here are more futurist.. as we are here now in 2008 ... not back then... times change.. how many of us now see an old hag? [thats in Romeo and Juliet by the way] a very VERY common work by a very VERY commonly known character.... therefore mass indoctrinating audiences with this old hag image.... but I need to research my dates there so I could be wrong.. either way he only helped install the old hag image even if it existed before his time.

How many people in the old days before technology came along for example have seen UFOS and grey aliens in SP? none that I know of.. so it seems all to do with what input we have in our minds already to what we see.

I had one of these experiences about a year ago.

I woke up in the middle of the night around 1:00 A.M. and I felt my whole body completely paralyzed and I didn’t know what was going on, also there was a huge sense of fear and aggression put into my body, where I was even too scared to move. It felt like there was a presence in the room and that if I moved it would attack or something. It was one of the oddest things that had ever happened to me.

Welcome aboard I just added you to my friends if thats ok.

reply to post by P-a-r-a-d-o-X-2


Sounds good

yea ever since that night, i have to sleep with the TV. on haha, that was too surreal of an experience for me haha

Since Ive started to take "note " of my awakening so to speak the ringing has got much less in my ears to the point of not really being there. I truely believe that if you listen to your inner voice and try to leave behind our world of materialism you will find the answers.

I am a totally different person to what I was 6 months ago, its a journey , one from which I am now awake in.

reply to post by Mr Green


a great quote I once herd was "success is not the destination....it's the journey"

I think it’s great that so many people are taking a spiritual path towards enlightment. I too hear the ringing in my ears now and then. mostly when I meditate it comes in like static. I think that’s how we get the information from the universe. IMHO of course
