Hi,
Finally after months of trying, I have gotten out and had such a convincing experience that I have no doubt that this was the real deal. Prior to this, I had thought I had gotten out or had some experience where I had separated but did not actually move away from my body so I was reluctant to share those experiences. This one, however was it. This is how it went down.
I decided to use affirmations. I had tried many other techniques such as meditation, phasing, waking up without moving, etc. Affirmations yielded the best result to date. I have an iPod with a program called Speakit. It gives me the ability to copy and paste text into it and listen to it being read. I have used this program to listen to entire books since I don't always have time to sit and read them.
I typed up an affirmation and made it repeat over and over and listened to it while laying down to go to sleep last night. I didn't fall asleep right away so I decided to listen to some chapters from Adrian Cooper's book 'Our Ultimate Reality' where he was describing the Astral Planes, namely the lower planes and the lower Astral Entities. I listened to it and started to doze off. Once it was over, I woke up realizing it had finished playing but I did not bother to start it over again. I had probably slipped into a light sleep of about 5 minues or so.
I layed there for a few minutes and then I was struck with a very strong charge of energy out of nowhere hitting me in my back. It was so strong I felt like I was being tazed, but without the pain. This was different from the vibrations I had felt during meditation, about 100 x stronger. It threw me out of my body. As I exited I heard noises that sounded digitized, like the one in the matrix when Neo gets engulfed by that mirror after touching it. I was then in a black void. I could not see but I could sense my surroundings and I could hear voices all around me. I felt threatened. I felt like I was surrounded by beings. I went into attack mode and started fighting them for some reason. I shot fireballs at them. I could not see what I hit but I could something was hit. It got kinda wild and I tried to control my thoughts but I think due to the fact that I had listened to that portion of the book that spoke of lower Astral beings and such, thats where I ended up I believe. Maybe my mind created it. I have no idea.
After about ten seconds I got pulled back in to my body. I felt the re-intergration of the astral and etheric body take place as it took a couple of seconds and then I could move again. I then rolled over, took the blindfold off my face and looked around. I was like what the hell was that!!?? I thought for a moment, that was it. It all happened so fast that I didn't even have time to think about it or explore my surroundings. It felt like I was thrust into a pit with a bunch of people fighting. I guess that's what they call a spontaneous OBE.
Your thoughts are welcomed.
