THE OTHERSIDE OF PARADISE

[Souljah333]

I never bothered to check out The Island, and it was Gandolph's recent post that brought it to my attention. I'm starting this thread for anyone with "off" travels to the island, as I feel it's important to keep them somewhat separate so as not to jade those who haven't been. It's a cool idea, and I'm interested in the exchange...not so much that I'm looking to hook-up with anyone in paradise (that's a odd thing to say) ...
but the idea of a lot of people having the same focused destination and what the out come of that will be.

bon voyage!

Just got back from The Island.
Lots of wonderful white sugar-sand!!!
Never got as far as the water    . Came in as snake, slithering across the sand (never done that b4?!?) and kept my sights focused on the pyramid. the sand slowly was replaced by grass, then the palms I got closer to the pyramid. It took me a while to find my legs and get up and walk around. the area i came in on was secluded (no people/no structures)...what might be considered the "far end" of the island. when i made it to the pyramid i turned right. when i got round to the next side there were lots of people (families) mulling around. like a tourist destination. there was a long wall (like china's) that ran for a good distance, and when i looked over one side there was a massive valley or pit that looked like some kind of ritual ground. large carved stones here and there. lots of people taking pictures. there was also a massive castle (who put that there?) inside it was set up like a museum. tons of artifacts and such, but i didn't have time to make the rounds. for some reason i was driven to move things around...completely sub-conscious. i picked up the giant carved stone and carried it a spot next to the restrooms/telephone area. and oddly enough there was a pile of other items...carved tablets, goddess sculptures, etc. there was one other guy...kind of crazed looking, shoulder length hair, maybe in his fifties. who had subconsciously recruited me to help him get this stuff together (steal it, rescue it?!?). seconds later i was "discovered" and chased by security, and the entire place became reminiscent of the complexes I've talked about. again with the wire! every outlet, ever light disconnected/popped out of the wall and the wiring came after me with that same relentless, super-magnetism. running and trying to pull out the wires till it eventually became useless. by then i had morphed into the basement, and through some utility room full of fans (air system). there was a large white rat that showed me an opening to the outside, and i managed to make it through the fan blades and get away, but by then i was totally ensnared.

don't like being limited on where i can go.
think I'll give it another shot.............now!

this isn't to say that anyone else will have anything close to this. this is what i get, bcuz I'm "trackable". not sure if I'm redirected, or this might be an aspect of the island that is being developed to monitor travelers?!? i thought it was interesting that one of the first posts i read after wards, was RedDragons mention of a Trojan in the picture, bcuz it's the same "corporation" at work.

I'm really interest in anyone else that has more of a backdoor experience.

edit: visit a second time, but after all the mess & time of getting the forum back together...i can't for the life of me remember what it was!?!

[Darkening_Light]

Wow, thats interesting, i was just looking at the times between the posts though, you must have astrally projected (or rather focused within as Frank says (and i agree)) very quickly. Did you use phasing?

[Souljah333]

i have never read any books about AProjection, or OBE's...so i really don't understand too much about the different focus levels, and phasing things. sorry. i started having sleep paralysis and OBE's when i was about ten, which scared the sh*t out of me big time. learning how to let go of the fear, and free myself up enough to let go...led to some pretty amazing lucid dreaming and projection skills around the age of twelve. so i've been at it a long, long time, (i'm 36) and it's a daily thing for me...actually anytime i try to sleep, nap, or relax deeply...i project or phase.
i'll have to figure out what the difference is and get back to you.

i actually visited the island three times in a matter of of two hours. i could do it all day long, but that's not really allowed in this world...work, etc. .  i will find the other two experiences i wrote down and post them here, since you showed some interest. as far as technique goes (if i have one?) i just lay down, close my eyes and focus on the pyramid. (focusing on the island in total...usually i wind up in the ocean, and have to get to the island, and i have some magnetic attraction for sharks not that that's bad bcuz they're one of my power animals/guides...but they tend to be demanding and i wind up someplace else). i focus on the pyramid, feel myself "on" the island...the breeze (esp. good if your outside, or have a window open/or fan/helps), the birds, the waves...really FEEL it and think about nothing else, just the feeling of being there and then i'm there.

i'm a bad teacher.

trip 2:

i flew into the island this time, and landed on a crowded stretch of beach that had a severe slope to it...more like a sandy cliff that descended about fifty feet down and ended in deep water. everyone seemed amused at having no choice but ending up in the drink. it was impossible to stay on the beach without sliding in. the sharks seemed amused as well. i have this "web shot" thing that i always use. yes...just like spiddy. it comes out of my wrist and sticks to stuff. i aimed it at the large rocks at the top of a waterfall and pulled myself up to higher, level land. i could see the pyramid in the distance. i sat on the rocks for awhile and watched everyone mulling about. the area i was in was resort looking and very crowded...mostly younger people, not as many families. like club med .  i was staring into this pool of water when a strange looking half-otter/half-rabbit thing swam by. i coaxed it out of the water and began petting it. then i noticed another small creature half-fish/half-cat. it also came up on the rocks and let me pet it. they seemed in need of attention, and wanted to play with me. they were excited that someone was interacting with them. i agreed to spend time with them and play and we made our way to a grassy area. we were just beginning to play a game when tow guys walked up (maybe early 20's) and distracted me. next thing i new i was following along with them down a pathway lined with bungalows. they were both talking about manifestation. one guy pulled an envelope out of his pocket and three hits of acid. i declined. i felt really bad about leaving the little animals behind. i felt like i had been sucked into the energy field of these two guys and i didn't like it. i wanted to get back and play with the critters and avoid the crowded area. i finally managed to pull away, and while trying to make my way back. i wound up walking down a staircase attached to the side of a hotel. it opened into a small lobby area with a phone, a bench and a door. i opened the door and walked into what i can only describe as some japanese mafia type meeting. no one paid much attention to me. someone started arguing, and then a fight broke out, and i spent the rest of the trip kicking some kung-fu butt.

note to other island travelers...please take the time to interact nicely with the wildlife!!! they're lonely!!!

I will try to keep that in mind when I'll be able to go there, they seem like nice creatures from your description

Thanks 333,

you're lucky, you will be very surprised to discover that I myself am only 14 (well physically that is, not in soul or mind though) I Have been studying the paranormal for a number of years but really only recently within the past year or so actually understood it, and the energies,, and of course there is much more than i could learn in a life time, but a lifetime is what I have so I suppose I'm in no hurry.

How very interesting!

I do see what Darkening_light was saying though, about the time.  It seems you made a post at 14:59, then came right back posting your experience at 15:02  

That IS wicked fast....so maybe that is why you are experiencing such difference things on the API, because you aren't quite getting to the real one?

Still interesting non the less.

Take Care,
Nay

[Souljah333]

man everyone takes things so literally round here. strange for an astral group . it feels like such a waste of time to have to explain myself, BUT...
since you think i'm doing something incorrectly and winding up in "NOT the RIGHT place"?!? here goes...remember when the forum was down? and all the posts got lost?? and some of us copied our posts and saved them...so we could REPOST when everything was fixed??? that's why i have both post appearing in such a short time frame...NOT bcuz i wrote the first one, projected and wrote the second one all in a matter of 3 minutes. COME ON!

there is still one last experience from that afternoon that i have yet to post. hope i'm not on any sort of time schedule here?!?

as far as different experiences go. do you expect that everyone that visits API is going to experience the exact same thing? does that make it more valid? is it always the same every time YOU visit?
isn't it constantly changing?
we could both go see the same movie, but that doesn't mean that we would both see it the same way...but think whatever you want...think i'm wickedly fast. think i'm inexperienced...whatever you prefer.

Geez..why so defensive?  Calm down, I was just commenting on something.  

I often do wonder though when someone gets so defensive, what is really behind it.   I was just curious about your experience, and I'm sorry you had to take the time to explain...

I'm not even sure what you meant by your last line "think i'm wickedly fast. think i'm inexperienced...whatever you prefer."

When I said wicked fast..that only means REALLY fast, not that you are wicked..lol.

Now can I please my arse back that you pretty much chewed off?  Thanks.

dear Nay,

i'm not going to go into specifics, but there are large number of kids that hang out at this site. i understand their interest, i understand their lack of experience, but i take my work seriously, and although i can enjoy it as well. i feels it's my responsibility to create some kind of balance. i try not to get to intellectual...so people that are new to all this can relate, but i don't feel it's necessary to throw all intelligence out the window and play down to them. the last few post i've read from you have felt empty in some way. one in reply to curious05 on being a donor for pys-vamp's, and one in reply to Silent Shadow's demon question. i'm not questioning your style, but i don't give advice in matters that i am not highly experienced in, and even then i try to be very diplomatic. i'm always aware that my input might cause a perception shift...that painting a negative picture could work against what other information i am trying to impart, but i know first hand how detrimental demonic & vampire attacks can be, and i'd just hate to see someone have to go through that 1) bcuz they were ignorant 2) bcuz other people made it out to be a joke. sure i'm sensitive...always have been...but i'm not tactless.

i was going through some of the older API posts, and all your comments seemed enthusiastic and open-minded, even though it sounded like you yourself were having a tad of trouble reaching the destination. so something felt off when i read

That IS wicked fast....so maybe that is why you are experiencing such difference things on the API, because you aren't quite getting to the real one?

(real one?)
anyway...

think i'm wickedly fast. think i'm inexperienced...whatever you prefer.

was exactly what i meant to say.
i don't know why you'd be confused...they were after all your words.

When I said wicked fast..that only means REALLY fast, not that you are wicked..lol.

yeah i got it.

all the small stuff aside if you have the time it would be really great if you could answer the couple questions below.

is API always the same every time you visit?
is it not constantly changing?

for some reason i think there is a static between us both. not sure what it's about, but not interested in putting too much energy into making it a big deal either...just an observation.

ain't no thing but a chicken wing:wink:

Aha, i see, lol I wasn't here back then

[Darkening_Light]

Regardless of the little fued that, sort of, just happened. I think what has been said is very useful actually.

is API always the same every time you visit?
is it not constantly changing?

NO, and yes.

It changes just the same as thermals change with different weather, and different crops on the ground etcetera.
