Tried to do something productive for once instead of just flying around

[justin35ll]

Just thought I would share this since it's a little different than my usual obe's and to see what you guys have to say
OBE #67, Dream to obe
       I was in a non-lucid dream I was in my house, in my downstairs bathroom, standing in front of the toilet. I realized the bathroom looked a little different than it does in the physical and that made me become aware I was in the non-physical. I also realized I should not pee lol. I turned and floated through the door and up the stairs to my living room. I went over to the sliding door which leads out onto the deck, and floated through the door to the outside. It was gray and overcast outside, might have even been raining a little. I looked down at my hands and said "I'm aware I'm in the non physical right now."
       I thought about what I wanted to do while I was out, something different than the usual flying around my house until I lose focus and wake up. I asked, to no one in particular, "I would like to speak to someone who can answer some questions I have about the non-physical." I waited a few moments and then turned around. Someone else was standing on the deck with me, a young unfamiliar male in his 20's, not someone I would have expected to show up. (but maybe someone comfortable for me to speak with) I immediately went over and introduced myself and said "Hi, I'm Justin" and he said "Hi, I'm Chris". I asked him if he can answer some questions I have about the non physical. He said yes, and so can his (friend?) Jesse. I said, "okay great", and might have also asked who's Jesse? He said you don't know Jesse? Making it seem like I should have known him for some reason.
       Chris went inside my house through the sliding door and I followed him and watched where he went, he went downstairs and a short moment later he came back up with someone else. The two of them both came back out onto the deck. I immediately introduced myself to Jesse and we shook hands. My dad was now on the deck with us and we all sat down at the table. My dad quickly asked a question before I could. He asked, "what can you guys tell me about living in the non physical?" They responded, "It is a one way path, the void is the smallest part?" I immediately leaned in and asked, "Can I speak with deceased relatives or friends?" One of them responded with, "No, and his explanation was something like it would be too easy for them to tell you everything?" I asked another question. "Then what can I do to prove to myself these experiences are real, how can I get validity out of my obe's?" Jesse was now standing up and it sounded like he was eating something and talking at the same time, I couldn't understand him well. He said, "Bromanager" I said, what? He said "brermember", again I said what? "brermember". I couldn't understand what that meant, but I made him repeat it so I could remember it. It faded and I woke up.

To me it seems like I got no valuable information from this contact, at least for now. But I will try this again in a future experience

Just log it for now, you never know. 

As for the experience itself... pretty good!

It may be an imprint. Next time you become aware shout this word loudly and you'll most likely become grounded there. You'll get full awareness and may see someone else appear.
Ask the same question again.

I think most people on here who stay with it long enough at some point come to the same conclusion you just did - that there may be more important things to do than flying around. I personally think that when you mentally reach that state it opens up a lot more for you. After all are we not all here to expand our consciousness, to self improve. I think the more you do things like question these states and may be offer your services (e.g. retrieval work) you will open yourself up to a whole lot more. Guidance will be more prevalent in your experiences because they want what you do which is of course to expand your consciousness.

I put up a post about how shadow form interact in projections. It might be helpful.

What do you mean by retrieval work?  What kind of services could we offer? 

[justin35ll]

Thanks for the replies, I think if I continue to ask for help like I did, I will be able to open myself up to a lot of new opportunities. I got into doing retrievals about a year ago. I performed them for a few months and then stopped, I did have some minor verifications, but nothing major

Generally, it is helping people who have died to cross over.  Some have trouble doing so because of fears/negative frames of mind or they just don't realize that they have died.
