Recent OBEs

[Greytraveller]

Hallo all !
It's been quite awhile since I last posted one of my OBEs on these forums.
In fact I have had several this year (one occured just a week ago).
Here is an OBE that I had about a year ago, last December in 2006.

Out Of Body Experience # 67
"Branch Mal Projection"
Friday, December 8, 2006
   This OBE began with a dream. Although I am unsure of the details I am certain that the projection took place directly from the dream. Once out of body I immediately tried to go outside through a small triangular window. The first attempt failed yet the second try was successful.
   Once outside of the house I had a clear view of the area including the large hill of Stanton Heights. I was having difficulty controlling some very powerful emotions which would have prematurely ended this OBE. I felt a need to take action. I decided to try to fly and took off the roof over the back yard. The large trees were very formidable obstacles. For some reason I was unable to go over these trees. Then, either because of misperceptions or an error in judgement, I thought that there was a lot of room to maneuver in flight.
   Actually there was hardly any space between the trees and the 2 garages on either side. I tried to fly low underneath the lowest branches. In fact the lowest branches almost touched the ground. After weaving about in the air for a minute or so I was nearly forced to land to avoid those tree branches. This ended the projection. Total time of this OBE was 5 minutes.
   Notes. Locale I and a Familiar Location. Confused, Dream>>>OBE, Flight, Meditation.

I'll post another, more recent, OBE in another day or two.
Thanx for reading,
Grey

Thanks for posting. Glad to see you around!

My OBEs still begin as dreams, too.

Sounds like one of my typical real-time OBEs.

Thanks again!

Since I have been tracking seriously for the last three years now, this is the break down.
Conscious (Wide Awake OBE) comes in first place.

Misc - 28   
Dream To OBE - 85   
False Awakening - 55   
Conscious OBE - 124   
Total OBE's - 292

At one time, I thought that I projected all the time thru WA obe than from the
dream state. Its a good measure to see progress!

Kodemaster and tvos - thanx much for replying. It is good to communicate to both of you again.

tvos - by wide awake, are you refering to projecting directly from waking consciousness?
Or are you refering to projecting from the mind awake/body asleep state?
From what I have read projecting directly from waking consciousness is extremely rare and seems to occur mostly at random.

mostly from mind awake, body asleep i project from.. there are many times i will drift into the trance state drousey and i am gone...

tvos -

IMHO the next giant leap in this field may well be from the person who can effect a full separation of their astral/ethereal body from their physical body from a waking state of consciousness.
Robert Monroe may have been able to do this - go OOBE with only a few minutes rest or relaxation.
Perhaps a few westerners May have this ability (Ingo Swann, Blue Harary). Eastern mystics (Swamis, yogis, etc) have also reportedly had this ability. So far nobody has proven this ability on a consistent level.

does under 10 minutes count?

i was able to capture this on video 10 years ago and is documented on my web site.

it doesn't take much to make that shift and anyone can achieve the obe, especially from a
drousey state. remember, we are multidimensional beings that can shift on the spot - just
a matter how to cross that bridge and use the vehical we know best that works.

10 minutes does count !
In my own experiences the time spent between the original intention of inducing an OBE and the actual separation (usually during sleep or just after sleep) causes a severe loss of focus on intention. That usually results in me just mucking about in or near my place of residence and getting little or nothing of importance done while OOB.
Believe me that there are many places that I wish to visit while OOB (eg Area 51, the Pyramids, API, etc) and many people whom I would like to meet (living and deceased, incarnate and discarnate). Yet it just does not happen. I suspect many people have the same problem- they forget their intentions while asleep and then do little during their OBE.
The less time between waking intention and OBE means that more of the waking intention will be retained during the OBE. Then a person could validate their OBEs more consistently, remember their OOB travels regularly and make contact with important (powerful) entities on a regular basis.

Grey,

Good observations and understand where you are coming from.

On a average of succesfull experiences, I would say that I am at 80% confident and
comfortable with retaining intent, objectives during the experience. As for validations,
I have had enough evidence documenting, tracking, statistics that I no longer need
to pursue.

Please read my journals "The Bravest Face, Dragons Fire, Tim W". and spreadsheet.

Also, just because the less time that it takes to enter the trance state to leave the body doesn't mean one will retain or remember intent. It swings both ways - You will need to focus daily, concentrate on one objective and realize there will be many failured attempts. Eventually, you will succeeed! Practice is the only key!

Good luck!
