This happened about 1 1/2 months ago.  I was having a dream where I saw my family and was in a house.  My dad came in and I was talking to him about some secret audio tape that he had in his room.  After hearing this I went into the room and pulled out the tape, popped it into a portable tape player and listened to it.  What followed was very striking.  I heard the strangest sounds ever, some odd and twisted sort of vibrational music, and I immediately was paralyzed in my dream and I felt a presence.  I felt my body vibrating heavily, almost shaking, and this being moved across me, doing something.  I remember trying to get out of it but I couldn't.  Finally after about 90 seconds of waiting, the sound toned down a little and I got some moving ability in my arms and I took the sound off and immediately woke up.  I sat in my bed for a few minutes and then decided to go back to bed.  In a few short minutes I was back listening to that same tape and the same thing happened, only a bit stronger and longer.  Finally I was able to tone down the sound and I asked "How do I make this go away?", and a book appeared infront of me.  I opened it up and started reading and it talked about "Asking about the Bridge at Aksum to stop this".  So I then put on the tape once again and I entered the paralyzing trance.  When the creature came I started asking it about the Bridge at Aksum and the vibrations started to get weaker and eventually left.  I talked to my mom about it after I woke up, which was about 4:30 in the morning.  I then went back to bed and nothing like that has happened since.  I actually started thinking if this was some sort of ancient gift, as for some reason when I was in the dream it seemed ancient.  I just remember sitting it out and feeling my body vibrate, and the longer I listened the more I "sank" deeper into this trance.  I wish I could produce this music in real life to see what effect it would have, but Im not sure if that is possible because it was so foreign and strange.  I was wondering if anyone out there had any answers.

Yes, generally when I am meditating quiety or listening to binarual beats after a few minutes I'll start to feel like Im bouncing back and forth like 180 degrees or spinning around.  Also, the strongest sensation I usually feel is like someone actually ripping your etheric body off to the side, it feels like someone is actually there trying to separate your etheric body from the physical and you can feel yourself slide off from your phyiscal body, these are extrememly strong sensations.  I don't see anything bad with them, it's actually kind of like riding a wild roller-coaster ride without being sick.

When I was a little kid I'd image a place at the end of our physical universe.  The universe was encapsulated in an ever-extending sphere with the ridge being some very hot material like a huge galactic fire.  Once you passed this point however, as I did in my "spaceship", you would see these hallucinations.  Whatever you were thinking about would come on and you would see it.  Perhaps this is where other dimensions start?  I find it interesting at the detail this stuff was in when I meditated on it as a little kid, perhaps it was real all along?  Oh and btw, the other people on the "spaceship" were humans of an advanced society and didn't know about Earth, just to let you guys know.

When I first start practicing astral projection I had the experience of doing so with my eyes open.  It was 3 in the morning and my brother had woken me up and I was extremely tired as you can imagine.  So I just sat there with my eyes open thinking hard about astral projecting and in about 20 seconds I was out flying around with double vision in the dark, I went down the hall and into the bathroom and saw the bathroom light even though my eyes were fully open and it was compeletely dark.  It was a very strange experience that really isn't all that great, it's really more annoying because your eyes get really dry.  Anyway, yes, you do have a double vision at once, that was pretty cool, but it's no big deal.

Hey, could someone please send me that .wav file to dominatus@swbell.net please, thanks!

Hi, I only have one week of school too and if you know IRC you can get on irc.undernet.org #obe or #astral_projection and I would gladly talk, we have a few people in high school on these channels too, so go ahead and drop on by.

Yes, whenever I have an OBE it is always bright, if not really bright, even when it is dark.  It is very peaceful, and have never seen the dark from the RTZ, it is always light where I am.

Well, first of all we must take into account the random movement of energy in the universe, such is the case in diffusion, where molecules spread in a timely fashion.  There would have to be something to permenantly hold this massive energy in.  There are probably billons of souls that would love to get their hands on this extra energy from every place in the universe.  So it would have to be secure and only let those who you truly wanted to access it access it.  Im not sure if you would be able to set a spell to make energy constantly form a barrier somewhere and collect energy to put in it, so if this would not be the case then you would have to rely on some third-party source such as other souls on the astral plane to constantly watch and maintain it.  If spirits would be willing to do this task then Im sure something of this sort could be accomplished where they'd contribute and store this energy safely and keep it away from other forces, good or evil.  Another thing is that this area might get unwanted attention because of other lower lifeforms on the astral would be attracted to all of this strong and powerful energy, and could possibly start joining forces to try and have access to it.  I don't think this idea would really have much logical purpose as souls wouldn't want to maintain this for a long time for no benefit of their own.  It is a very interesting thought though.

One time I was tired and about to have an OBE and right as I popped out of my body my cat jumped on my back right as I was rising.  Also, recently in a very vivid dream(probably nightly OBE while dreaming), where I became partially lucid and asked my two cats if they could astrally project, and they said that yes they could and they can also see astral beings.  I have also had other vivid dreams(nigthly spontaneous OBE) where my cats were around my house, like always, and would act just like they did when they were awake, except they didn't play around as much.

I experience this often, too.  I'll be dreaming about playing basketball and I'll be throwing the ball to someone and then my physical arm moves in the same direction that I do in the dream, and legs.  When this happens it is usually in the hypnogogic times when you first start dreaming when you go to sleep.  I find that this really doesn't happen to me while Im normally sleeping on the bed but when Im sitting in a chair going to sleep, as I found out this basketball season when I had to sleep on a Charter Bus chair.

You probably get more external help when meditating in higher planes.  I have meditated in the astral consciously and unconscously(dreaming) and I always am in a blissful state and sometimes I'll have other entities or guides come by and pray with, and help me.  This does not mean at all that meditation is not important on the physical plane, it's just that it's easier to meditate in the astral because you are already fully unaware of your body and usually your mind is quieted.  Plus, in the astral you could make your own peaceful scenery easily, which would also aid in the process.
