Awesome OBE this morning

[sac_boy]

I had a really smooth exit experience followed by an unusual trip this morning, thought I'd share.

Woke up at about 11 (bank holiday!) and played some sudoku in bed. My girlfriend got up to make some breakfast, and I turned over for a snooze. Just lay on my side with my arms outstretched in front of me, which recently has given me a couple of really quick and easy exits--like it regulates my breathing, puts me in exactly the right frame of mind, or something. Naturally I was already pretty relaxed, just chilling out listening to music from the kitchen. I heard a 'pop' inside my head and realised that my body had fallen asleep. From there it was only the barest effort of will to float up out of my body--it has never been so easy. No blindness, the world was vivid, full of light and colour. I had complete control, all running on instinct. It was amazing! The rarest of things...quick, spontaneous and powerful. I remained calm and floated out through the bedroom window into the front yard. So bright, so vivid. I felt no need to rush...no draw back to the body...this was better than even my 'peak' experiences years ago.

If I have all this control, I thought, why not explore? So I willed myself to go 'somewhere interesting'...as simple as that. Clapped my hands (I find it helps to 'punctuate' thoughts like that) and I found myself above a park, in a very well-kept, vaguely futuristic city. It was just as bright and vivid as the garden, maybe moreso. It was lit by a bright yellowish sun, felt like midday at the height of summer.

I swooped down into a wide street, flying at ground level (cheerfully 'skimming' along). This was the most populated place I've ever seen (all of my previous travels have been in the sparsely populated real-time world). People everywhere, milling around, going about their business. No road traffic as far as I could see. I found a wide plaza where a group had gathered with suitcases. I stopped beside them to question them (knowing that I wouldn't have long before my girlfriend woke me up!) I spoke to a thin, swarthy man with short-cropped black hair and a grey/black beard.

"What are you all doing?"

"Leaving."

"Going where?"

He shrugged and turned away.

I flew on. I passed a figure I recognised as a policeman or a guard...only this was a policeman by way of Moebius and Tron, a uniform and full-face helmet of yellow blue and white, swirling and interlocking shapes. His head followed me as I passed.

Then my girlfriend called me for my coffee and Rice Krispies and I was back in bed. "Okay honey, I'll be right out!" But I had every intention of flying right out the window again...I felt that I still could...and I did! I willed myself to return to the city, and I did.

This time I was over a market that ran along the sides of a narrow street. It was a bustling place...I dropped to ground level and walked. At the end of the street was a flight of stairs, and at the foot of the stairs I was met by a short man who handed me a square wooden token. The token was embossed with an image of the Buddha, and below it was a first name and a surname. I told myself I'd remember...of course I didn't...the first name began with B, the second was Myrtle or Mortyle or something like that.

Shortly afterwards came the breakfast call again, and I had to get up.

 Congratulations Spacewrangler, that sounded like an awesome experience.
Here's to many more!

Hi,
Good outing, more to come I hope. It would be nice if some first timers had this success, they would be thrilled too.

Cool experience, thanks for sharing.

Something I'd almost forgotten, but interesting in retrospect--I was watching a movie last night when I felt a surge of weightlessness rising from my stomach to my head, a bit like vertigo but without the disorientation. At the time I wondered if it was OBE-related--some instinct told me it was. Then I had the easiest exit of my life the next morning. Don't know for sure if it was related, but who knows?

Greetings spacewrangler
More and more people seem to be going to open markets and malls when out of body.
That futurist city was probably a non-physical belief system territory (BST). I go to places like that from time to time by accident and then can never figure out how to return in later OBEs. If you ever Do return there then please post How you made it back. (Just wanting to return to someplace and willing to go there NEVER works for me. It apparently Does work for some persons but not for most people ??)

Sincerely 
Grey

What an awesome exit!

It is so funny how the best projections are always the ones that were the easiest.

Grey took the words out of my mouth.
Sounds exactly like a BST.
Phenomenal point Grey. A lot of projections I have heard about lately are to populated areas as well. Interesting.

I also like how the being you met was 

swarthy man with short-cropped black hair and a grey/black beard.

It is funny, you would think when we die we would make ourselves look like supermodels or something, but most of the entities I have met are all, idk, how to say it, balding or moderately obese, or stocky.

When you get a successful exit, other successful exits happen to make a "cluster".  It is a common pattern that you are "hot" for a couple days. So attempt as much as possible to leverage your 'streak.'

Cheers,
Contenteo
