The Games.

[Szaxx]

Hi,
I hadn't been out for a while so decided to set the intent open for games. All night nothing happened on this theme until this morning. I made a new beat and played it as noise is mad here.
Started the sequence to exit and was traveling through what looked like rings before the darkness typically seen. Ok with this I continued on. Ended up in a place like you'd find on the old westerns. Dusty roads but the housing was clean and tidy. Painted well too. I asked about the games to someone wondering what had I done to end up here. With a smile the guy turned me around and the place was filling with people. Each side of a flat arena about 100 feet wide were seats being filled with the locals. At one end of the arena, where I was stood a large double door with stone surround  strange symbols etched into it. Atop of this was a large metal triangle made of tubing like a road sign but the bottom right corner had a metal gauntlet protruding towards the centre.
Then there was a speech that came from everywhere and our sense of hearing was to be disabled. I found this entertaining with the other players, around 25 in number. All I then heard was announcements from the games master and a background sound so beautiful you didnt want to hear anything else. This sound Ive not heard before and now can't remember it totally.
The first game a set of ropes appeared from the clouds in the sky and we had to climb so far releasing a dove to win. I thought this too easy as I could fly but didnt dare tell or do it. I climbed like at school many years ago and wasted the opponents chances of winning.
Cheers from below as the bird flew away. Next few games were running, throwing....then the last game came. This was totally new to me in all my years of projecting. The large doors never opened and the sound in my head grew louder, still very pleasurable. Announcing the last game as here the crowd went hysterical. I was a little worried by this as not sure of their fanaticism I started to read their thoughts. A bloodthirst was in all of them and we were the prey. The space infront of the doors started to go dark. Then a form generated by the masters took shape. It was non specific but legs appeared. It was made from something that absorbed light, we saw it get totally black with its edges shifting like clouds. A bang heard, the crowd went mad and the players heard the command, RUN.
We ran, this form crushed 5 players instantly and they dissapeared totally. As it came in my direction I thought why am I running? I stopped and got into the mind of this beast. It was a construct to remove all it touched to another location set by the masters. Mine was to wake up so I convinced it To ignore me ad it would a flag blowing in the wind. It did and then went on.
At seeing this I was removed from this scene placed into another. A factory floor in a clean building quite new. I walked across the floor towards a third person view of where I could see me.strange this. A large manhole cover appeared in the floor where I had just walked and it opened up. A dark shadow raising itself from it. The doors slammed onto the floor making me jump. I lost control for a second and heard the familiar voice of the master.You have failed this test.
Totally confused by the two views within myself and from a third person perspective this sudden noise caused me to jump and thats a fail?
WTF?
Its only a game anyway....

Hallo Szaxx
That was a very cool experience, Participating in a type of astral Olympics in an Old West BST! 
Many other people have reported seeing two (or more) versions of themselves while out of body (apart from their physical body). Hindu, occultists and theosophists speak of each person having several different bodies, physical body, astral body, dream body, mental body, causal body, etc so maybe you saw one or more forms of those other 'you'.

 That sounded like a very cool Experience. The only games I remember from any of my sessions is playing "Frisbee" on a beach. Although I do once in awhile still enjoy a game of "Astral Hacky-Sac".
Thanks for sharing Szaxx! 

[Szaxx]

Thanks all, it was a good experience and that black beast thing topped the bill. I could have not created that thing and its so unlike anything I've seen before. The joke of it all was after playing so well to be placed in two different positions with both me's crowding my head to be told I failed because I jumped.
A true game....
Dont they say 'thats life', well in this case ' thats afterlife', lol.

Hi,
I thought about the fail last night. It dawned on me this could have been another test. Not having one for years this explains the ending.
As I encountered the beast and resolved its dispute with me I was sent to the factory. This was the test. I had to control both viewpoints simultaneously in order to prevent any unexpected actions not being noticed. The test was could I control this confusion while under hidden duress, that being everything was unknown in the surroundings and a game still being played. Its not easy placing yourself in the correct one as the ideal place would have been in both simultaneously. Thats what I missed. The result was the fail. I cant see this any other way
The next question is, why do I need to place myself in two seperate locations simultaneously?
There must be a reason, maybe Im going on another quest. If thats a prerequisite then its not going to be easy.
Anyone familiar with this or have I totally missed the bus?
Thanks.

Szaxx, this is brilliant! Loved the trip, the creativity and your attitude, very funny read

I wonder what the second test was all about too.

I had only one experience of being 2 bodies in the astral at the same time. It was a very short one (maybe about 5 seconds or so of actually being in 2 bodies). I consider every experience in the astral (and physical) as a test, even if we are not explicitly told so, and I think that one I failed as well.

In short it was like this. I phased into some building, and noticed a girl there, she was dreaming. I woke her up by showing her a reality check (I put my and thru the door, then put hers thru it), she got very excited and 'awoke' (I assume) and we started messing about (not sexually, I was showing her how to levitate and stuff). Next thing I know is we decided to kiss, lust took over in me (at that time most of my 'tests' were around lust issues) and the image of me split into 2.

One was me kissing her and there was an exact copy of me about a meter away trying to take her trousers off (intending to have sex with her). I am quite ashamed of this behaviour, in physical life I am the opposite of that, I would not do this in the astral now either (it's not cool by my standards to jump on the first 'girl' you see and try to have sex with her, even though I used to do that all the time).

Anyways, I think it was the same kind of 'test' in so far as I should have controlled the 2 bodies, not just me kissing but the me that was trying to take her trousers off. I think that was the point. I don't know if you noticed the two you's somehow acted independently when you noticed there were 2 you's, even if for a few seconds. I think our test is to take control of them, just as you pointed out (I only realised this now reading your post).

I think we can do this next time by simply switching the thinking process/intending to be one or the other and then switching back (like flipping between the two bodies) or by intending to be both bodies at once. I don't know which one will work, if you do try either then please post a reply as I'm curious now.

I don't know when I will get a test like this again, but here's what I'l do, next time I talk to my guide I will ask him about this and what the point of the experience was, and post here a reply.

Hi,
I found it strange as no intent was set apart from one thought that being the word games. I was watching myself in both bodies at one point while one was walking. Then switched to the walker wondering what is going on. As I switched back I saw the shadow raise up and push the cover fast. I was aware of this scene like watching it from outside of the two. My guess with this confusing view was the transition between the two bodies my conciousness was for a short time independent and my viewpoint went with it. It explains the third person perspective too. All new,very interesting trip..
Why would they want me to be in multiple places simultaneously is the question?
Many years ago I was shown to move objects via thought. So easy then morph them, again easy and sent to a family to calm an entity that threw things around. I changed any object thrown into water then flowers ect after a while the family saw the funny side of my actions, I wanted that, then I moved the entity in the same way it threw the families belongings. It melted into nothing and I immediately woke up. In my mind was fight fire with fire. That was a lesson and a cleansing Id guess. These were in the late seventies, so why the delay?
Its a little crazy in the physical but the astral? Dont know if Im being set up for something bigger than anything I've done before. Yes, I like to help, a few have been big, one really big and they said Id not remember any of it, parts I do (astral guides or whoever)
I dont know if Im ready for another. I wasnt a few times.
Well let the fun begin.....

I lost control for a second and heard the familiar voice of the master.
You have failed this test.
Totally confused by the two views within myself and from a third
person perspective this sudden noise caused me to jump and thats a fail?
WTF?

Maybe you didn't act on the feeling of bloodthirst in the right way?
I would have stepped out of the game.

[Szaxx]

Hi,
That wasn't part of the game. I knew evasion of an unknown entity without using violence was this particular games play. Its one of those think quick or lose games. Any shadow construct usually has some form and light clears these usually.  I took many bad nights to learn that one. I detest failiure, bad emotion I know.
If that was the purpose then why was I translocated to another unknown place? It doesn't fit, then another shadow form appearing from what was a solid floor seconds before.
Its as if the environment is totally unstable and full of nasty surprises. A realm full of shape shifting where theres dark entities. Not been to any, I dont think it a nice place to be stuck in with a problem to solve where you're in two minds and locations simultaneously.
The worst that comes to mind is a bad retrieval from the lowest levels in the bst, last visit guided was an emotional mind fuuuk.

Ps.stepping out isnt an option. You'd miss all the fun. Lol

Szaxx, your mind seems to be fluctuating with many questions.

What exactly do you want from the astral experiences? (i.e. Why do you go 'there'?)

What is your 'goal' there?

If it is to have this test again and to pass it, then focus your questions on that. Go meet your guide and ask him about this test in detail, if you can re-take it, and see what he will say. Have you tried that? And if he says 'no' then ask him 'why' and at least you will know why, and so on.

That sounds like more productive way to deal with it, than to simply wonder behind the scenes what the 'designer' had in mind. There are simply too many possibilities of what was going on as I understand it.

[Szaxx]

Hi,
Agreed. There's lots going on and I have a knack of putting things in order and working out the possibilities to very few options. It certainly helps and solves many problems too.
As far as guides go I met up with one in the late sixties who showed me around the various levels from hellish bst's to a white light place with just energy forms. Another was a trip around the solar system where what I saw has quite recently been shown via space probes. I told everyone what was out there and got the typical mad stare. I was around 9 so got off lightly. Since then I've been on my own.
I get answers to questions by asking precisely while in the 3d blackness. You get a trip from this normally. Like the games for example. Lots happens and you have to work out the answers in some cases. A game is a puzzle and I got a biggy. I know theres one more thing to see in this trip but know I'll work it out while at work. This knowing thing is never wrong. Playing the waiting game until monday lol. The thread is based on a suggestion while in the 3d blackness.
What I wanted from this. I wanted to play games and the above was the result.
My main question from the astral is proof of its reality, I've had this too many times to count and most happened 6 days or so later. Its real its immense and we only have scratched the surface. Theres so much more our minds couldn't comprehend it. So having a bit of fun is now part of the agenda. Its not how high in the planes you can get. Its how personally rewarding the experience is for you. This is the way to learn. Like we all know dont run when walking isnt mastered.
There's many things Id like to do but need to live for a thousand years with todays list. Time stops for us all then it doesnt exist after that. At that point you can only do some of the things on your list. F27 comes to mind...
