New experience.Some advice again please?

Welcome to the forums gary!

That yo-yo feeling is a good sign, but it isn't the vibrations, they feel more like an intense tingling.  I am not sure what the white light is but I have experienced it.  Just this morning right before seperating I saw it..seems to come hand in hand with seperating from the physical. Of course I was startled out of it by phone and cats.
Just remain calm, I don't think it is anything to be overly worried about.
Good-luck! and keep of the good work, I think you are ready to fly!

Iread at least three stories about a white intense light that would be seen before separation, but never saw it clearly. I had only flashes, and many other things.. anyway your white light might be your own energy body, when activity starts to take your whole being you may start seeing a part of this activity: that's how I understand it, but again I did not experience it so I might be wrong... (?) anyway sure things: it is a sign you're close, and it's nothing to fear about. (but of course you're not thru with fears, there are a LOT of things that we fear without good reason, especially in the unknown, all will say that to you)

HI Gary

First the vibrations feel differantly to differant people.  Some feel just a warmness sweep over them some feel deep rumbling some feel violent shaking some feel tingly or numbess all of these are signs of some sort of vibrations.  What that is is just your awarness becoming aware of your energy body and the vibrations is your conscious mind intrepreting the energy movement.  Now some people dont really feel any vibrations which I think is my problem.  I have had alot of difficulty becouse I dont feel the vibrations.  

The Yo-Yo effect is your astral body moving inside your physical body.  It is you becoming aware of this.  

The white light is your third eye becoming active.  The flash is you becoming aware that it is active.  The third eye is where you really get your astral vision which just means that energy is flowing through it.  

When you feel the Yo-Yo affect that is the time to do your exit technique.  Relax and just be a observer watch it happen dont force or push it.  Now some excelent ways to exit are to just feel yourself rolling over or visualize your front door and think go to front door.  If enough thought is geared to this you will exit the body.  Fear excitment or any strong feelings will prevent you from getting out...

first of all, no those weren't vibrations.  when you feel vibrations, they feel like...well...your body is vibrating up and down, but you're not actually moving.  they've become so intense for me that i've actually exited the trance state shivering.  it's like you're sitting on a giant vibrational chair
the white flash of light could really be a number of things.  usually when i'm meditating, i tend to come across three different variations, and hopefully what you experienced is one of the three
1.) pulsing white rings from my third eye - these are usually at about 5 second intervals, and they float off into the distance without effect.  i used to think they weren't anything except trying to hard, but i think they're a prelude to further achievements
2.) swirling and bright white light, perhaps with patterns or colors - this is what i get directly before i project.  the light comes from the third eye, or simply swirls around in my visual field.  sometimes patterns appear instead, and yesterday the light actually took on figure forms.  after about 30 seconds, astral sight tends to set in
3.) sometimes i'll be laying there in the dark and all of a sudden the room will seem to get much brighter, and then fade back down again.  this sounds like what you experienced, and i don't really have any theories on it.  it's never helped me project, but it's always a nice feeling
of course, yesterday i saw a big blob of white light just out of nowhere, and it was the size of gigantic dinner plate, but this didn't end up doing anything for me
hope i answered your questions!

You people are all great!
Thank you very much for your replies.
Your comments were incredibly interesting.

Could you please mention some good "exit" techniques,except of those that doa wrote?

Thanks a lot.

Hello!I'm a newbie and i'd really appreciate some help and advice again.

Today,i decided spending some time relaxing and meditating.I was also hoping for some kind of progress with astral
projection,as i've never projected before.
After spending some time meditating,i reached my "personal trance state".
That's the first point i need your advice.
First of all i have to say that i meditate laying on my bed,with my eyes closed and in a completely dark room.
So,when i reached my trance state,i started feeling "floating" up and back.However,i wasn't floating in a "smooth","contenious" way...
I was feeling more like swaying...,or omagine a yo-yo...Anyway...that feeling was definitely intense but not violent.

Here's my first question.Could this feeling be that "vibrations state" you're all talking about?

Then,while being in that "state",i imagined two hand "pulling" out my body.Then,i suddenly "saw" a brilliant,white light through
my closed eyes.That was for a few  seconds.Unfortunately,i got scared and ruined the experince...

Her's my second question.What could that white eye be?Does it probably mean,that i'm close to projecting?What should i do when i see that light again?

I'm sorry for my long post.I'd really appreciate any help.
Thanks a lot.
