Hi Jilola, I've not experienced paralyze while listing to music but of late while going into a light trance this is the first thing to happen.I know Mr. Bruce writes about paralyze in his book but there's no mention (or so I think )of this occurring regularly .Pre Astral Dynamics I once awoke and was not able to move there was whispering going on and I panicked,after wiggling a piece of body I broke free .Should it happen again,Yoki must stay calm and go with the flow

Most people friek out when body parts get wiggled at them

Seriously though, I think what happened with the music was that the rhythm was for some reason in sync with something in the brain that causes sleep paralysis. I havent been able to reproduce the effect but it would be extremely useful if I could figure out what it was.
Those astral noises can be unsettling, hhuh?

Hi
I've experienced sleep paralysis as in waking up from a dream from a dream from a dream and I heard a fanfare playing in my garden, felt very real but obviously was not.
Another time after an afternoon nap I woke up hearing a song on TV, distinctly heard lyrics in French when it was really a song in English. Paralysis in that case too, I guess we are not supposed to run when we sleep.
I'm looking forward to reading this forum, looks fascinating.

Just thought I'd share this as it was such a blast at the time.
Earlier tonight I was waiting for a show to start on TV and put on a local radio station on my walkman radio.
I turned it on and Angelo Balamenti's song (the theme from Twin Peaks) was on. Two seconds later I couldn't feel my legs from the waist down!! I mean no feeling whatsoever. It was like looking at something that I vaguely remembered were meant for walking and should feel like something. All that were there were the familiar vibrations I get when I meditate or try to AP.
I was slouching on the couch so my uper body was a bit tensed up which explains why I wasn't conked out completely.
Funny thing is the song (a favourite of mine, I like soppy music) has never caused anything like this to happen. Amazing how things are transformed and the world turns out to have so much more magic(k) in it!
Has anyone had a similar experience?
