Hello
I had this experience couple days back and it has left me very confused and speechless. Would be very thankful if i could get any advice or comments regarding what happened. So here goes, my experience.
Ive already had a very bad nightmare a year back and thats when for the first time i came to know about ap and things. But have never tried anything.
So few days back, i woke up around 2am and couldnt fall asleep till 5 am. So i plugged in my earphones and played a binaural beats with isochronous tone on youtube and went to sleep. I slept immediately and all of a sudden i had this feeling that my head was vibrating. And the intensity kept increasing. I couldnt tolerate it anymore. I wanted to rip the earphones off and i tried it. I could feel that i was pulling them off mt ears. But they wouldnt come off. But im pretty sure i took my hands and tried pulling the wires but they wouldnt come off no matter how much i tried.
Then the vibrations were increasing and i could feel like somethig or someone was pulling me up. And i think its when the isochronous tones stuck, i couldnt take it anymore. I felt a jerk and got pulled upwards like climbing a rope. Then suddenly i tripped and fell down n felt like i was entangled in something. It was at that time i felt someone helping me. Couldnt recognise who it was. But he comforted me , helped me out and calmed me. I dont remember what happened then. I had this feeling of seeing weird random colourful landscapes and i got lost in it. After what seemed like a long time, i felt the same presence putting me to sleep and felt a tap on my chest/stomach and regained consciousness. Immediately pulled off the earphones. Got up, and drank some water. then slept off.
This experience has left me with strange questions, fears, doubts, and lots of mixed feelings and emotions. I would be really relieved to hear your views and comments on this.
Thanks.
Can you elaborate on the landscape you percieved?
It sounds like you were being assisted by a guide and unfortunately your awareness wasn't quite enough to ground you there. It's the overall feeling you had of your surroundings that matter. It may have been a spontaneous exit from a desire that's from your subconcious mind. This is typical when you read something that you want to do and daydream on what it would be like to experience.
Landscape.. hmm.. it was vast, and dark. Sort of empty of things except it was filled with grains of various colours. I was alone but i could feel a presence. at first my thoughts were filled with things i wanted to do, but then in a while, all those thoughts faded away.
Interesting experience.
You most likely visited the void from your description. The indecision and fading into oblivion is probably over dramatising it but that's the feel. The colours suggest a higher frequency or far nicer places can be visited naturally if you develop enough to project your concious self.
The not being able to move suggests a metaphoric way of saying what you did with the beats can only assist so far into an experience.
They will help relax you and train a natural ability to go into the correct mindstate, the rest you'll learn for yourself.
With enough awareness your experience would have led you to a pleasant environment.
The fear etc needs to be removed to do this.
What's to be feared? You met a helpful, calming spirit and had a semi-lucid OBE.
That sounds like great success to me
More importantly, I think the reason the helpful entity/spirit guide tried to calm you down was to teach something about grounding.
Kind of seems like you were fighting your feelings. Getting worked up, afraid, nervous, etc ends OBEs or draws attention you dont want.
When I first started feeling heavy vibrations during trances, it was almost as unbearable as you said. It got me really worked up and nervous.
But now it's the best feeling in the world. You'll get used to it AND as you experience it more, the intensity will decrease.
Just let the river take you :-)
