My short story

[BigD]

Hey, I guess I should start by saying I used to be a member here, although I don't remember my username or the subject matter of my posts. My background is such: I started having OBE's very shortly after learning about them last year, since then I've had countless countless RTZ experiences and lucid dreams etc. I am now attending college, and in accordance with senior spring and first semester of school I was smoking a lot of pot and drinking often-- leaving my dreams impossible to remember and OBE's rare. As of typing this it has been 11 days since I've smoked weed, and I've had some very interesting experiences.

My OBE's have always been dreamlike, in places that I recognize and with no major spiritual or emotional impact. This week I had two experiences that were completely new to me.

The first: I had a morning OBE-- I can't describe my exit to you because my exits are completely natural now, I don't usually do anything conscious, I just get the feeling and go with it. Anyway, I'm OoB and I find myself in a large structure that I fly myself out of, I exit through a lions head statue very high up in the building. I am now outside in a setting I have never seen or dreamed of, the skyline is purple and I can welcome city structures and I am struck by an overwhelming feeling of euphoria-- music that I've heard before is vividly playing as I am flying and I am in complete and utter bliss. Somehow I land and find myself in a room with several people. I begin talking to the man next to me and I tell him where I am from, he seems to acknowledge Earth as a place of little spiritual growth and says "oh, so you don't create life? I find that so fascinating." He says this with an intrigued tone, and seems to be talking about creating life on a large scale (universes?). Another man says sarcastically, "why would they want to?" implying Earth as a place that is not worth creation.. this doesn't bother me however and he says it in a non-condescending manner. I ask if this world is a world of cognition/ one of high emphasis on thought, and the first man replies in the affirmative. I do not remember too much after this, but I remember entering a building that was entirely full of music recordings, from tapes to cds, etc. I am a musician so this could possibly be my subconscious rendering of the Akashic records? Who knows. This is all I remember from this OBE

The next day, I wake up around 7 am and fall back asleep, I have a false awakening and experience another first. I am OBE without knowing it and I am lying in my bed as I often do, and something pulls off my covers. I see a monstrous looking figure and I immediately recognize that I am OBE, I call for light so I can see (it was very dark) and it appears to be a hazy somewhat human looking creature with a very large head and no real facial features. I don't experience much fear, but anger and violent thoughts towards the being, I don't have much control but I was attempting to utterly destroy him-- my ego was very large but I lost control of the OBE and woke up.

I am guessing my experience in the new world garnered some attention from this negative being. In any event these experiences were very positive, however I am left wondering what is the next step of exploration and what my goals should be during OBE. Comments and suggestions are definitely appreciated, and its good to be back.

And so my travels continue... this morning I had a series of OBE's only one carrying importance. I found myself in a large building and outside I could see reddish glowing light that I was compelled to fly towards. I flew through the building and the light was coming from a source of lava in the ground.. I interpreted this as a symbol of hell and exited the OBE. Does this make sense? Should I have explored anyway? I've always been very careful about devils and hellish things in that regard and don't want to get mixed up.

OK well, I see a lot of views but no replies.. I'm going to keep posting my experiences because they happen to me daily.. if anything so I can remember them.. maybe someone will find something to respond to:

Series of OBE's at night in the city of Boston. Can't remember first several, last one I do energy raising for the first time ever before exiting... I'm in a building I have been in before in last couple OBE's and due to the energy raising something is telling me I'm getting sent higher this time and I'm being risen up at an extremely fast rate.. I end up in the rafters of a building after I manually override being risen.. and I start plummeting til I black out. This is somewhat of a milestone cause I've never had those astral experiences where people say its almost as being conscious as waking life-- often I just have RTZ or dreamlike OBE's that are vague on awakening... I feel like I was being risen up to a higher plane but I was too scared to accept it... well, we'll see how I feel next time.

You should go on and face your fears because that's what they are there for. Sooner or later you will be faced with the same situation again.

Thanks for sharing your experiencing, its really fascinating to read. I agree, you should face your fears as it will probably come up agin in the future. Also You have so many OBEs in such a short time frame. 3-4 in a week, I consider that an achievment in itself, i'll be lucky to get 1 every 2 weeks.

Please continue to share your experiences with us, i look forward to reading them.

Cheers,

Not necessarily.  You may have been experiencing the Dweller on the Threshold phenomenon, which is a feedback loop to your body from your projected double, provided it's close enough to your body.  So you may have just been looking at what you can project in the way of fears. 
As to what next?  I found myself asking the same recently, and now an having some really weird experiences.  So be careful of what you wish!

BigD -
Thanks for the reads, I found the first very interesting. I'd also enjoy reading more exprnces of yours, that's pretty chill how you're fortunate enough to explore so often. May your experiences continue.
