YOUR FIRST EXPERIENCE OF OBE

[andy]

Hi Momentsofclarity,

For me its debatable but I wont say why and for good reason.

At any rate my first known o.b.e came at around age 17,now 35.
It was around 5am and I awoke with a thirst.I got up,[fact] and got a glass of water then went back to bed.Tired,laying on my back,hands at side I decided to straighten out my neck in a meditation fourm as I planned to meditate to clear my mind and drirft back to sleep.I took one deep breath exhaled when suddenly at the tip of my toes an etreamly powerful electrical like belt of pulsating waves [vibrations] began to move from my toes upward and into my legs exct.At first I thought what the hell is this.A fan of cosmic conciousness and lucid dreaming I had never felt anything like that under the influence nor while in a lucid dream when suddenly I realized that I was'nt even asleep.Upon that last thought my body levitated up to the ceiling hovered for few seconds then went back down to my body where I sat up and  thought of someone who had told me about a/p.Realizing that was it I again layed back down and again the vibrations came almost immeditly.Again I lifted up towards the ceiling and suddenly felt myself being pulled out through the wall into my frontyard.I remember thinking how incredibly beautiful it looked outside and at the same time was shocked in an unnerving kind of way as a result of the experience.I then went back through the wall and down into my body where I got up and looked outside to see almost identicly what I had seen o.b,only while o.b it seemed more brighter.

This changed my whole prespective on life.Unfortunatly back then I was unaware that this was a condition one could train thyself to do.Its not that i've wasted any time but it would have been nice to activly persue this issue at a time when stress and massive responsibility where not a factor as they are today.

Anyways thats my take.How about yours in a little more detail

Peace,Andy

Hi

My first full OBe was 6 years ago, I had already experienced the vibrations a few years previous and at that time I found  that I couldnt move my body, I was caught in what felt like a vacume! but was aware of my surroundings and found it all very curious!!
Then one night, I had just settled down to kip when I got some major rushes and the next thing I know is that I am sitting up on the side of my bed. But the thing was, I didnt stop sitting up! so to speak! and I carried on going till I hit the floor!! ..I say hit the floor, tho it didnt feel like one! ( Thank Goodness!) Anyway, I tried to sit up/get up from the floor, but I couldnt get up (Still trying to move my physical I think?) the next thing is, someone/something picked me up off the floor and said " I Have You" and put me back into my body, I had slight Vibes again then I was completely back into my body and sat up like a shot!!!!! and thought WOW I wanna do that again lol

My first OBE was when I was around 13.. I had just woken up, because my alarm had gone off on a saturday morning at 6:30 AM  (I had forgotten to turn it off).
 Needless to say, I was quite tired, and slowly began to completely relax and drift off, when I suddenly became aware that I was floating over my bed. Quite a strange experience, to say the least! Anyway, I floated around my room for about six or seven seconds, but became so excited that I ended the projection and re-entered my body.
 That was my first projection, and I haven't been able to have another one since, although a few nights ago I got VERY close until I was interrupted by my dog barking. I'll get it soon though

My first OBE happened very quickly I didn't even realize it was a OBE at the time.  I was laying in bed and suddenly I realized I was paralyzed and there was a strange buzzing sound....I was full of fear.  The strangest thing was that the room seemed to be glowing, slightly blue.  I finally snapped out of "it" and suddenly I realized that my eyes had been closed.  How was I staring at the ceiling of the room if my eyes were closed?  

It wasn't until much later that I studied about OBE and realized that I had had my first OBE when I was 18 in that college dorm room.

My first known OBE, was when I was around 15 and it was spontanious...

I "woke" hearing this high-vibrational sound in my "ears".  I slowly climbed out of my bed and thought how cool it was.  Everything looked as if it where twilight and when I moved, I felt like I was walking underwater; I could not move as fast as I liked.
I walked down the stairs and saw my brother go-bye.  I found myself in the kitchen and two ladies that resembled my aunt and sister (who where not physicly living at the house,) sitting at the table.  I went to the back door and slowly fell back outside, as I opened the door - one of the ladies helped me back up and said: "While you are down here fu**ing around, you are losing your checkmark..."  As if I knew what that meant, I became alarmed and actually ran back to my body.
When I came to my body, it felt like clay and looked as if I was in my underwear (which I was not, physicly).  I tried to figure out how to get back in.  I started to think of my toes and fingers - and returned to the Physical...

My first OBE was a spontaneous projection when I was around 16, I don't remember what age I was. I was sitting in class in high school and I felt this great energry come over me. I stop what I was doing and concentrated on this energry. Next thing I know I am standing in the middle of a field surround by a forrest. I notice that it is odd because the sky is pitch black, no stars no moon, nothing in the sky but black, but my surroundings are full of color and very vivid. I then think that I was not here just a minute ago but in class, then upon thinking that I faded back into my body. At the time I had no idea what had happened. I did not know anything about astral projection or where to look for what did happen. It was not until 4 or 5 years later that I found out what happened and started practicing. Unfortunately by that time I had little time to practice so my progress has not been great but I have had several other OBEs.

[Momentsofclarity]

Thankyou all or your replies i have read each of them. I have only consciously projected once and have had many false awakinings.

but the time i projected consciously i was watching a movie (hollow man) and drifted off to sleep i woke to the vibrations and realised that something was happening and i willed myself to go with it and whoosh there i was floating above my fiance.

I have often felt lonely, because no-one (freinds and family) really can understand it or comphrehend it.

So it is good to hear other people who understand what we know, is not the work of the Devil or satanic cult but instead it is the ultimate freedom that any human could recieve.

WE CAN TRUELY FLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Life is good!

[Dreams of Desires]

Hello Everybody!

I had my first Astral Projection at the age of 6.. I don't really remember all the details but what I do remember is walking down our hall way, *which seem to go on forever for a scared little girl* walking in my parents room and trying to wake them up because I was scared, I remember trying to shake her but couldn't really grasp her.. *which scared me even more*.. I tried to do the same to my father, and when I realized know one could hear me I started to cry, I ran back to my room and when I saw myself lying on my bed, I woke up..  

Obviously I did not know what was happening to me back then, I was to young, but I do remember most of the times I Astral Project from myself.. I never told my mother nor father on what was happening, they would have laughed and told me it was all a dream! I have always had a different out look on life ever since then....

My first spiritual encounter was at the early age of 3 when a negative entity in the guise of a dog jumped out of a picture of a dog on my wall and terrorized me.  I have a vivid memory of this to this day.  For a period of 3 or 4 nights this entity jumped out of the picture onto my chest at night when I was in bed and my mother would come into my room after hearing me scream in terror. My brother also slept with me in the same room.  The attack was not a dream because it would happen almost immediately after my mom shut off the light and left the room after puting us to bed.  Needless to say they called the local church elders and they came over and prayed and asked if we had anything new in the home which might be connected to anything spiritistic.  My father had recently received a martial arts uniform (gi) and belt from his Karate master.  The belt had been blessed by a budhist monk.  However, apparently the blessing wasn't such a blessing at all.  They recommended that my father burn it.  So they put it into the fire place.  The uniform burned up immediately but the belt didn't even singe for the better part of two hours in a hot fire.  It was made of cotton.  They prayed and prayed and prayed and finally after a couple hours the belt started to burn.  The attacks stopped immediately after that.

Later when I was about 10 I had my first fully conscious spontaneous out of body experience.  Since about the age of 13 I have practiced off and on various forms of mediation associated with the martial arts but only in the last 3 years or so have I done so with great focus and regularity.  

[Kodemaster]

This is the first (and only) OBE that I'm 100% sure I had:

I was dozing off to sleep, when I felt the familiar floating feeling. I somehow turned on my third eye, and had a conscious separation. I was floating above my bed, and could see what resembled Picasso's view of the room I was in. This lasted for about a second, and then turned into a plain, ordinary dream.

I also may have had a spontaneous OBE when I was 17. I was floating around the house and into my brother's room. I floated back into the living room, only to realise what was going on. The experience instantly ended at that point.

It happened so long ago that I couldn't tell you if it were an OBE or not. I just remember trying to convince myself the next day that it was a dream and not an OBE (I had a running fear of having a spontaneous OBE back then). I do remember that the experience was rather blurry, and it was dark in the house (as it would be because the experience took place at night). That's all I remember.

Take care,

Hello all,


I'd like to share my first ever out of body experience with you.


I was 6 years old and I had a small accident that day. That night I went to bed. I wanted to sleep but I couldnt sleep because the consequences of the accident were too much. I heard outside people screaming and yelling. As I kept listening to the yelling and screaming I slowly faded away. I heard this loud pop sound in my head and I dont know what happened exactly but I found myself out of my body in the bedroom of my grandma. She couldn't sleep either so I saw.

As I stood in her room I didn't know how I got there and I didn't know what to do there then I saw this bright white light opening, more like a portal, in another room in the same house.Out of the portal 6 beings came out. 1 woman and 5 men. They came out of the portal and greeted me. "There you are", the woman said. The five men only looked at me and smiled. The woman continued her talks:"Manfred is your name this time right? And don't forget that this is the last time.You promised us!" *My last life on this system after this I will never reincarnate again ever as the lady explained*.

I asked the lady: "What am I doing here?" "Well", she said. "You are using one of your talents. We worked so hard to get everything together. Without this one, the talent to leave your body, you didn't even want to go here."

They asked how I was doing and I told them I was being teased at school *yes lol that happens also* They replied with the following: "You are the only one here, people can feel you are and so they look at you a bit strangely but in most cases people don't even know what they are doing."

We walked up to the window and there we were talking about all kinds of stuff.

I saw this comic book laying on the floor it was from the Fantastic Four. I am sure some of you have read those comics. On one of the pages the main character stretches out towards a hole that was drawn in the picture. I asked what that was and they replied: "Yeah well that is made by beings like us. It is there to show other people that that is also possible." It is also possible, they meant, to travel through other dimensions and your astral body to stretch out.

We looked through the window and the lady said: "From all these people you are special." And I thought: "Hey that is nice." But they immediately told me to not be arrogant. I might be special *I still have no clue what they mean actually* but I am still one of them. One of them humans. No more no less.

Also a strange moment. Apparently when u stop thinking then u collapse with your astralbody which is quite a cocky thing to have. "Think, think", the beings said while they were laughing out loud. Well after a thought my astralbody had a form again.

She asked me some questions like: "You remember part of the Whole?" and I didn't know what she was talking about.Apparently before I came here I taught the woman about The Whole at least that is what she said. Also some other things but I simply did not remember. And they kind of reacted annoyed towards each other saying things like: "He doesn't remember a thing. We told them not to make him forget."

Then the lady opened a portal with the snap of her finger and a portal opened, just like the one I saw when they entered. They said:"Well come along with us. There is someone who you'd definitely like to see." I didnt know how to stretch out and I wanted to hold one of the beings but they didnt want that. They said I should be doing it myself and that it was quite easy so as they one by one stretched out and went through the portal. I was standing there watching how the portal closed.

I was cold and scared. I didn't know how to go back home. Until I met another lady.An older one. She seemed to just have found out about her talent. And as she kept yapping about her talent she said:"You are too young to be here. Where do you live I will bring you back."

And so she did. Before I went back into my body I saw it laying there. It was breathing fast with a rythm in it. It was quite a funny site to see. A tear was coming out my left eye and my mouth was open. I went back into my body and saw this white light litting up the room. The come back in the body. It is quite a beautiful light. I woke up a bit dizzy.

The people were still yelling, the rest was still the same but I knew I had undergone a very significant change in my life now.

After that one time I have more but that very first time was all that I'd like to share with you. It is kind of special. The very first time.

I hope you all enjoyed reading my post and thanks for taking the time to read it.


Regards,

Manfred

I spontaneously projected a couple times while I was a kid
I remember the first time
The most intense vibrations Ive ever felt (moreso then when I consciously do it)
I started to float upwards towards the cieling....just as I was about to hit it I felt increadible whiplash and opened my eyes

Of course I didnt know what to think..I was like 7..for all I knew I could be being abducted or something!!! haha No I didn't really believe that ...but it really did scare me a lot... I think I may have cried(not sure)

For many years to come (about 10) I had pretty bad sleep paralysis..up to 10 times a night sometimes... thats pretty much what got me here... somewhere I read something relating sleep paralysis to OBE and I ended up at spiritweb...I read all that about 2 years ago..and was amazed and here I am now

MY first OBE was about two years ago. The first two times were spontaneous and the first was rather terrifying to say the last.  I heard low murmuring and as I decented from my body, the voices got louder, trying to scare me back in.  This happened a few times and eventually I fell back into slumber and woke up horrified.  I did not understand what had happened.  
This was most likely low astral wildlife as Bruce calls it.  SInce then, when I had heard these things, I ignore them and everything is fine.  The past few times I've had no problems whatsoever.

I'm not sure if this is an OBE or dream even tho I had'nt been reading up on OBEs etc for a while. Coz they do say dreams are based on events of what happens during the day.

I when't out with my mates down the pub a few weeks ago and got quite drunk and came and decided to watch Blow the film but I fell a kip the main screen. When I woke up in the mornning I remembered that I was a few inchs from touching the ceeling and I was looking at my self asleap. I don't remember anything else other that looking at my self but it did seem very vivid and the lights I think were kind of blured. There also have been a few times where I go off to sleep and after about 10mins or so later I feel very light as if I were sinking but  I can't remember any vibrations so who knows.

The first experiences were spontaneous, when I was around 12, in 1976. I'd go to bed, close my eyes, and start seeing Laurel and Hardy. OK, start laughing now. I'll wait...
But it was that shift of seeing fat guy, thin guy, fat guy, thin guy, over layering each other so quickly that brought the onset of the vibrations and paralyzation. And my stomach would get queezy and I hated it!
I didn't know anything about OBE's yet, so I went through all of this for the next 3 years. The waking up paralyzed, with sirens going off in your head, the shadow figure that enters the room just to scare the wits out of you, Waking up at the ceiling, or on the walls, and thinking " I'm DEAD" got to get back to my body!  
Browsing in the high school library one day, I happened to notice a book about life after death. I read it and found out about Astral projection. I went to the public library and read all the books I could on the subject.
One day I decided to try a conscious projection, but to have proof I put a playing card in a box hanging from the ceiling. I read this book about Ingo Swan, a psycic who performed the same experiment for a scientist.
I got out in about 10 minutes of trying, but I was only halfway between my physical body and the box. Being my first conscious projection, I started flapping my arms, but it worked. I got up to the box and looked down inside and saw the 8 of diamonds. I immediately woke up back in the chair I was sitting in, my head was slumped down as if sleeping. I stood on the chair and took down the box and looked inside,  it was! it was! ...the 8 of diamonds.

I can remember being out of body when I was a child and it really scared me. I can also remember bleed throughs of pastlife memories that would make me scream for my mother to come into my room...such as fires, burning, tornados and intruders Poor Mom:) She didn't get a lot of sleep.
My first real out of body experience that made an everlasting impression on my life was a walk out experience when I was seventeen. During a group meditation I decided that I was ging to walk out because I couldn't go on anymore...and so I did. It's a bit of a long story but I decided to come back as there were too many people relying on me to interact with them in this life. Now that I'm older I can see why:) Since then it's all been sort of a blur lol

It happened about three years ago on a weekend, lying in bed one morning contemplating a recent encounter with the man who is now my  partner.  I was propped up on my pillows and thinking, spoke briefly with my then seven-year-old daughter, and then I went DOWN.  It happened very fast.  I was completely paralyzed, by body felt as though it were vibrating, and my head was full of noise.  It lasted less than a minute.  My consciousness remained in my physical body; I had no idea I had projected a double.

My reaction?  "HM, that was interesting."  My mind had activated a couple of years prior with lucid dreams and psychic imagery and feelings, so I concluded (probably correctly) that this was just another step on the path.  
Of course, it happened in broad daylight and I was wide awake, so it was nowhere near as frightening as the sinister episodes that followed!

The next few years were just like anyone else plagued by spontaneous OBEs . . . terrifying nighttime episodes . . . I thought I was going to die!  But once I "saw" my energy arms/hands, and I also have a vague memory of pulling myself out of my body . . . god that was painful and sluggish, probably my second "double" for that particular episode.  I had no idea I was having OBEs.

When I stopped having them for a few months, I missed them.  When they started up again, I wish they hadn't!  But a week or so ago, I actually remembered a projection and it was terrifying, but very rewarding.  I floated out of my body and started sailing through my house as if I had my own magic carpet.

Now I'm trying to have more!  But since then I've had nothing but false alarms.  I tried to meditate this weekend but instead fell asleep for four hours straght!  Sigh.  I guess I needed the sleep.

i have had two obe's in my life, and the only one i can remember was when i was baptized 6 years ago, when i was 14. as i was going into the water i closed my eyes but i could still see my legs and i felt the rest of my body. but i could also feel the hands and arms of the person holding me as well as feel his annoyance that i had let my legs fall out from under me as i was going in to the water .

i have had moments of clairvoyance as well, like when i once sparred with my friend and my back was turned to him, i could still "see" his attack in time to half block, half dodge it. and another time i was taking a road trip (kinda) and my eyes were closed. i was thinking about something when i all of a sudden saw the passenger in the front seat point at something to the left and above the vehicle, and the driver looked too. i was curious as to what they were looking at so i turned to look as well. that was when i realized my eyes were still shut! i then opened my eyes and asked if they had really done that and they said they had. so i thought "COOL!!!", but i am still not sure if this was a moment of clairvoyance or if it was an obe that wasn't so out of body   .

Secret of Secrets

[Sylvain]

Hi!

My first time happened when I was about 4. I kinda gained consciousness sitting on my bed. It did feel like reality and that I had just woke up feeling a bit woosy.

Suddenly something fantastic and scary happened: a witch entered my room through one of the walls near the ceiling! I remember rather vividly thinking that the room was exactly the same so it can't be a dream. It scared me but the witch, apart for her strange laughs, did not seem to be willing to do me any harm.

The witch was flying around my room and then quickly lost altitude and abducted me on her broom stick. By then I was completely terrified and thought she would take me far away from my house and my parents and that I would never see my family again. I wanted to scream to alert my parents but couldn't.

We flew around my room a few times at astonishing speed. It seemed that the witch was content just to stay in my room. Part of me felt frightened to death and part felt more excitement than what one would get from a rollercoaster ride. Less than a minute passed and the witch brought me slowly down to my bed and I woke up.

I still wonder today if there really was another being there (even a neg) or if it was simply my imagination making the witch up to logically justify the flight and sounds we hear when we get out of our body.

Sur enough that experienced left me being scared of the dark and I never was able to go out of my body until many years later.

Heres my first,at the time I wasnt aware of what was happening at all.Only looking back on it recently did I know what it was.This was several years back.I worked 3rd shift and this particular day I got home and didnt feel like sleeping.Went out with my girlfriend for most of the day.When I got home about 7PM or so.As you can imagine I was really tired.I put on the tv and Im going to get you sucka was coming on.I know dum movie.But I like dum movies sometimes heh.After 10 or so minutes into it,I couldnt hold my eyes open any longer.So I layed on my side and started to nod off a little.Guess somewhere I slipped out of my body..I remember watching the whole movie.I could see the ending credits.When I must of drifted back into my body.Than I woke up kinda startled and pretty confused.I had just watched a movie with my eyes closed and I was facing away from my tv.Had no idea about obe at the time,didnt realize I was out.So I taught it was just a really weird dream.

[RandomName]

Not too long ago I recalled a memory from when I was much younger that terrified me. I was laying in bed, and i was about 6 at the time. I started drifting off to sleep when I heard a demonlike scrudgy voice say "LETS CUT OFF HIS HEAD". I had never before even had ideas about people getting deheaded. i woke up terrififed and went and slept in my parents bed. I was watching a movie recent when 2 people had a man tied up to a chair and said "Lets cut off his head, thats an idea". The memory immediatly flooded back, this time with a picture of the creature that had spoke. He had red eyes with tiny black dots in the center, pointy green ears and face. he had 3 fingers and his nails were about 2 inches long apeice. I beleive this was low astral wildlife. Shortly after I laid in my parents bed, the cold air from their fan disappeared and I felt a warmth all over. My eyes are tearing up as i type this. I have no idea why. I keep getting the shivers as well. I really want to know this being that helped me.
