conscious Oobe....It's Real!!

Success! I did it very early this morning, but not 100% aware at the time of doing it...meaning I was able to come out and I kept going up and up and up, and I felt it and kept willing myself to go higher and higher, and I did- it was great! BUT...I couldn't see..and I didn't want to open my eyes resulting in my body opening my eyes, so instead I just kept going flying higher and higher, without any sight and it was still amazing. I felt I should stop and as soon as I did, I snapped back. I put this as another checkmark towards success, and just as a learning step to help me achieve further, and fuller OOBE in the very near future. I know I can do it. I will need to focus on willing myself to see I suppose for the next time if I have trouble seeing? I remember reading others talking about things like this.

Update

Last night I had another OBE. I remember waking up in mind and feeling all warm and tinglin and thought id try mentally sitting up which I did quite easily. I sat up in bed and had astral vision which wasnt perfect but better than what ive been used to, it was like wearing a pair of green goggles this time but just slightly blured round the edges. I snapped out and floated straight towards my bedroom door. I could see it but only just and floated through it and was then on our landing. Ive purposly started leaving our landing light on now incase I have an OBE and im glad I did.. as soon as I got through my door and onto our landing it was all lit up perfectly just like if awake. I floated downstairs and was at the bottom of our landing wondering what to do.. bearing in mind it must of been about 4 in the morning which I found out later.. I floated back upstairs and decided to look for our cat emma so I floated into my sisters old bedroom and there she was asleep on her bed so I went upto her face and then willed myself through her body thinking she might notice me but she didnt and I ended up under the bed staring point blank at the floor. Then I just decided to wake up.

I also experienced something else last night but im not sure if this was a dream or not. I found myself in this big building wondering about with the same sort of vision I had in the OBE earlier on and there was not a single person in sight. I kept on shouting out 'hello! is there anybody here?' but nobody replied.. I was floating about this building and outside for what seemed like a really long time and was completely lucid. I kept on asking for full astral sight but nothing really changed and I was left with the green slightly blured vision which wasnt too bad to be honest.

Also in another 'dream' I had last night ive discovered something which im going to look into more.. when flying ive noticed how theres some sort of different layers in the sky and space, its like I know what to expect as im flying upwards like last night I flew up and then there where white clouds and then rain clouds, then im surrounded with blue sky and can see the sun and feel the heat and then after that is when things start to get really weird and eerie. Its difficuilt to put into words but its like theres lots of different levels which get more wierd and eerie the higher I go.

That my friend is the astral plain, something that is far more interesting than looking at your sleeping cat.

Keep in mind two things.

1. Know how to deal with things that make you uncomfortable.

2. Do not accept anything you hear or see as the truth until your able to test it.

You see this did cross my mind and im aware of the different planes but whats confusing is that ive never really assumed that id have to fly upwards to reach these planes.

When ive had OBE's theyve always been in my house or street so to suddenly find myself with astral vision and in eeri surroundings with nobody in sight I find myself wondering if its just a dream or if ive reached somewhere else. This is the second time ive found myself with astral sight, in unusual eeri surroundings with nobody in sight. It certainly feels different to a dream but also different to what my OBE's are like when im floating about my house or street. I cant understand why its so quiet and how can I tell for next time if this is the actual astral plane and not simply a dream? Has anyone else experienced this really eeri feeling when you travel so far up above the skyline? I also noticed too when I was floating about up there that even though I was fully lucid, I didnt feel myself at all wanting to wake up like I usualy get in a lucid dream. Infact at one point I actually wondered whether or not id be able to return to wake up as I felt so far away from my body.

Its hard to get all these different feelings across into a post like this but I guess im hoping most of this makes sense to some and they can relate.

No kidding Clarky......welcome to the IMPOSSIBLE world of those of us trying to 'explain'....and 'relate' experiances that there just are no words for......
It is really interesting to go back and read books about OOBE once youve gotten to the place where words no longer drscribe....for now your understanding is deeper, and things written in books can make more sense now, than they did before.

I am understanding at a deep level, that the more I am learning about all this, the less I really have to say about it. It is just SO hard,(maybe 2 hard) to relate in language, what we are actually experiancing....the harder we try, the crazier we sound.....

So you want to OBE?

Well that is what the exercises in Dianetics 55 and Scientology:the fundamentals of thought will help you do.

It worked for me.

Try it! Allot of people who try to OBE are held in place by mental constructs that must be batted out of the way. Others don't have these and can easily OBE.

The exercises in those books will help everyone.

Using words to describe is not so much an issue, but when you start seeing all the connections that everything has you will need so many words to describe that is near impossible...time consuming. That is when you stop using words.

Well that is how it went for me anyway. In life I hardly say a thing unless the other individual is willing to listen for the next couple of days. On a board you easily type long texts and people still don't get it, because they can't see the connections and assume that you'll be thinking ahead to far.

This is something which is also partially explained in the Lateral Thinking theory called Po. Explained more indepth here

*shivers at Bodebliss's reply* mentioning 2 "sects" there. I like to experiment but those fall in the catagory which I wished never to have delved into. Just like the idea of the Intellectual Design nonsence.

You may have become involved in the ?Sects?, but never actually read the texts for understanding.

Hard not to when they shove it down your throat in a subtle way. But that is how life is. Try it all and get burned here and there. But you live and learn and grow from the experience

A most excellant OOBE last night

Just a quiet little bit of the usuall 'sound' and I lifted......I called for visual clarity and there it was!......I could clearly see everything in my room, and I headed out the window.
I was out in the backyard and said......."well helpers and guides, show me what you think I need to see".....and WHOOSH I was moving very fast......then I was elsewhere (not in the 3D world we know)...I saw flashes of faces in front of me. Some familiar and some not. I then asked to SEE some people I know, and was imediatly rewarded with flashes of the faces of who I requested.....noone was speaking to me, I was just watching the faces like a slide show. I then was shown some animals I have had as pets who have died.......they looked fine and happy, and I do not know if this was flashes of them from the past or as they are now. Where ever they are they looked happy and healthy.....

I decided I needed to return and sleep....I had to get up early and did not want to be dragging and sleepy, so BLAM I went back to my body. It did not last long though, for I felt myself lifting again....and I went off on some other adventure.....it was very black, but a pinpoint of light could be seen in the distance. The light grew larger as I seemed to get closer, and I entered this place of light. There were people there and they were talking to me but I can not tell you what they were saying (I just do not remember ) I do know I was at this place for quite a while and I was busy doing 'something' there, but I do not clearly recall WHAT I was doing.

I do remember at this juncture that I crossed over into a NON CONCIOUS OOBE for I was just plain tired and went unconcious of my OOBE doings as a way of attempting to get some sleep.
Soooooooooooo my doings then became some type of a dreaming adventure. This makes me suspicious of just how many adventure dreams we all have that are NOT dreams at all but actuall events.

Hello, been awhile since i posted on this thread,
i like the new pic rivergoddess, thats awsome to hear you got to see some friendly faces.
ive havnt attempted to oobe in awhile but i do get acurring wierd realistic dreams...anyone wanna point back into the right direction?
Thanks Alot.
~Kiliker

Seeing as there is a high volume of people not succeeding at this why doesnt someone that knows how to do a group yank, for example the person knowing how yanks someone shows them the basics and then they go yank someone else so on and so forth . if for one would be willing to do this if I can get out of my physical body but i have not been able to achieve that yet.

just a thought

Because , in reply to that...its not just somthing you can really learn just like that it takes time..it takes lots of knowledge of this stuff and if you do it wrong you can have a bad downside..from what ive heard...in other words..i dont think thats a real safe and good idea ...just my opinion.
~Kiliker

neonine,

People who have catastrophic obe experiences(near-death) find they don't want to venture out again. Were you to gradually come to it. When it finally occurs you just pop out. Like a champaigne cork from a bottle.It's quite beautiful.

Try the exercises in those books I mentioned above. I know they will help you.

That sounds awesome theRiverGoddess I bet you cant stop thinking about that experience

Just out of interest, do you remember how you went through your window? did you float through the glass and if you did, did you happen to sense the taste of it? I ask because of the few times when I floated through and I suddenly aqquired a glassy taste. Its strange how easy it is to have another OBE once youve returned to your body isnt it. Its just not the same when returning from a dream.

yes very cool RG thanks for sharing. I came VERY VERY close last night, but just couldn't get there. Sometimes if the slightest thing disturbs my concentration I have to start all over again from scratch, and then after a few attempts will give up. I can't wait to have success again!

hmmmm I have heard of people who TASTE the objects they pass through. I have even heard reference to the TASTE of another persons 'spirit'.

I have not had the experiance of 'tasteing' anything......I just go through the window glass without any super taste or smell of it.......I kinda wish I COULD though for it sounds very interesting indeed.......I can sorta imagine what your talking about but then again I have no real clue....

As for the group yank??? well.....I can't do that yet but I have been TRYING to.....I can't yank anything out of anywhere.
and a GROUP yank??? seems to me you have to do this one person at a time and not in a group...I do not think you CAN fracture yourself into so many particles to be able to be all these differant places at one time.
But...this is just MY OPINION and I certainly can be wrong......

Maybe some Yogi CAN fracture themselves into many small parts to experiance many things at the same time......I just know that I can't.

THANK YOU for liking my avatar...it is a real pic of my eyes, and a real pic of half my face....it really IS me.......

A little exteriorization humor for all of you serious free spirits.

The Exteriorization of Guy Wisp

by K. Knoss
Copyright © 1996
Some readers will remember my account of my first interview with Elron Hubbahubba. I had been in telephone communication with Mr. Hubbahubba in the intervening time, but had not had the opportunity to visit him since, despite his continuing offers to do so. Recently, my affairs took me to the South, and I arranged to meet with Mr. Hubbahubba at his plant, to learn about some recent advances in e-meter technology.
When I arrived, early in the morning, I was met in the lobby by Guy Wisp. Guy Wisp is (or was, but that's the subject of this account) the Director of Research for Elron's company, Scientific Spiritual Technology. I had met him during my first visit with Elron, and had been somewhat spooked by him. He was certainly not the person I wanted to meet.

"Hello", he said. "I'm sorry, but I'm the only one here right now. Elron and the rest of the staff are in ***********. They're not sure how long they'll be there. I'm expecting a phone call any time now. Anyway, Elron told me you were coming, and extends his apologies. He also asked me to fill you in on the e-meter discoveries."

It was against my better instincts that I followed Guy into the lab. He was still so skinny as to be gaunt, and have the appearance of starvation, but his skin was not gray, as it had been before, and had more of a creamy white appearance. Somehow, he wasn't quite as creepy. I tried for some small talk.

"You're looking fit", I said. "Been working out?"

His reaction to this was completely unexpected. He whirled around with a look of consternation on his face, his black eyes almost popping from their hollow sockets.

"What?", he said. "Wait here." And he ran into the bathroom. He was out almost immediately, saying something under his breath that sounded like "They're coming back. They're coming back".

He grabbed my arm, and despite his small size and weight propelled me forcibly into a room. The room contained a table with an e-meter on it, and two chairs on opposite sides of it. He pushed me roughly into one of the chairs.

"You're going to audit me", he said, somehow menacingly. "You're my only chance, you've got to audit me".

I was so overwhelmed by the suddeness of the shift in his demeanor and actions that I could only squeak.

"I don't know anything about auditing", I said.

"You'll have to learn", he said. "I'll give you the 30-second version of it." He opened a cabinet on the wall and pulled out a couple sheets of paper, containing both typewritten material and what were apparently notes in someone's handwriting.

"Mass is intention", he said. "We have to locate intentions and incidents and implants and confusions and erase them to lose mass. You help me locate these by asking the questions on this sheet". He gestured at one of the sheets of the paper. "You have to demand it. Really mean it. Make me believe you mean it. And watch the meter. Turn the knob to keep the needle on the dial. Follow the needle with the knob, got it? The needle will go up while I'm locating the intention. If it goes up slowly, or sort of wanders around, you need to re-ask the question, even more forcibly. Don't worry about BT ARC breaks, I won't have that problem. Or tell me to identify the intent. When I locate the intention, I'll tell you. You'll also recognize it in the meter. Then tell me to go back to the beginning. The needle will go down. Keep following it all the way to the bottom. When the needle stops, the incident is erased. Then go to the next question."

I could only look at him dumbly. He shoved the paper in front of me, sat down in the chair opposite, and took the e-meter cans in his hands. "Start", he commanded.

"Spot a cognition", I read from the paper.

"No", Guy said. "Adjust the meter first. Then say 'Start'. Then demand, compel the question."

I twiddled the knob on the e-meter until the needle centered on the dial. "Start!" I said. The loudness in my voice surprised me. The needle began to move, and I wondered how I was going to be able to follow the needle and read the bizarre list of commands at the same time. "Spot a cognition!", I commanded.

And so we proceeded, command after inane command. The expression on Guy's face told me if I was doing OK, or if something was wrong, and with that as a guide, I felt after a bit that I was beginning to get the hang of it. As we proceeded, I felt that Guy's appearance was changing. He seemed to become somehow more translucent, less material, even while air the room seem to take a darker quality, sort of like a mist. I attributed this to some sort of tiring, or possibly a hypnotic effect resulting from the endless, droning list of meaningless questions and endless twiddling of the knob to follow the needle.

Suddenly the needle began to jerk violently from one side of the dial to the other. I looked at Guy, hopelessly. "The needle's bouncing", I said.

If possible, his pallor whitened. "Rock slam!" he said. "The meter's full. Get a new one!" He motioned at a cabinet behind me.

I turned and opened the cabinet. Inside was three rows of meters, of all different colors, in clear plastic boxes. I thought of asking Guy which color he preferred, but the urgency in his voice told me not to do so. I grabbed one, opened the box, and took out the meter, even as he swept the old one off the table into a corner. He grabbed the new cans, and we were off again.

The process was exhausting, and as time wore on, I had to focus more and more on following the needle by turning the knob. During one set of particularly convoluted commands, I had to watch the meter very closely. I was completely unnerved at Guy's appearance when I looked up at the end of the set. It looked like his ears had separated from his head, and were hovering about an inch away from it. As I stared, gaping, the ears appeared to reattach themselves to the head, but not quite in the same position as they were originally.

"Continue!", Guy shrieked, almost in desperation. But it wasn't just Guy's voice. There was another voice that somehow spoke directly to my mind. And as I listened, I heard yet another voice, making something like a groaning noise. And I began the next set of commands.......

(sheesh and I thought I was the person posting really WEIRD STUFF on this thread)

but they are from Ohio so what should we expect anyway? JK

Oh like the Western US has a power-lock on sanity and spirituality.

I doubt that.

The author appears to be a californian and the university that published the fiction has a branch in California as well. At least they have a sense of humor.
