OBE durations

[alchemist]

Hi

I seem to be having longer and longer OBE sessions. Today I was out for 3hours. Obviously not all of that was in projection. My guesstimate of how long I have been out was ~2hrs. I did not lose consciousness or click out at any stage.

How long is the average projection (in physical time of course) you have?

Just so's we're comparing 'apples for apples':

• By projection I am referring to 'mind awake - body asleep' and that freedom feeling of cleanly separating from the body like a balloon being released into the air.
• My definition of 'body asleep' is hearing yourself snore and/or uncontrollable saliva and swallowing stopped and/or body numb all over & very difficult to try to move.

I'm not sure if you disregard the time in the duality state (that simultaneous sense of being 'out' whilst still being 'in' the body). I often drift between being 'cleanly' out and the duality state, Within the duality periods, it feels like perhaps 75% sensation of being out and 25% in the body for me. Sort of like I am distinctly outside my perspective of where my body is but still have that sense of body somewhere in the background.

It's impossible to tell exactly how much of my session today was 'cleanly' out, but I was pretty well OBE'ing (in the general sense of the term) by the end of my 30min relaxation mp3 until stopping ~3hrs so approx 2.5hrs all up for both clean separation, duality and some cruising around in 3d blackness.

I could have continued in this state indefinately if my stupid bladder would go to 'sleep' too!

PS: I use a combination of a Robert Bruce 37min relaxation session at the start and a BWG preset running in the background.

You sound like Monroe! From reading his adventures you would have thought he was on vacation.

You are very fortunate then. The longest I've been out is maybe 5 minutes.
