Feeling incredible energy surges, muscle twitching/contracting on a daily basis

[gandalfsbeard]

Hello there I'm a newbie around here. I started experiencing pre-OBE symptoms on the 29th December 2010 which eventually accelerated to a fully conscious OBE through a lucid dream about 2 months ago. Although it was a fleeting experience it was really quite spectacular and left a huge impression on me. I now look at life and indeed the wonderful universe we inhabit in a very different light. I believe the possibilities are endless, this life is just one of many we've lived before. I came out of body as pure consciousness, it was unlike anything I have ever experienced. My environment was extremely thought responsive, as soon as I thought about the window I began to move towards it from the ceiling but I became frightened and snapped back into body.

I wondered whether people here are also experiencing huge energy surges through out their body during the day time? Mine usually begin in my feet and work upwards. Are these energy surges related to the OBE state, or is it something else? Kundalini rising? I'd be grateful for your thoughts. Also my muscles are contracting regularly. I experience lots of twitching, infact the muscle in my feet is twitching right now as I'm typing this. I never used to have this kind of muscle contraction or twitching prior to my obe experiences. Increasingly my energy body seems very eager to get out of physical body, I can usually sense when this is going to happen. There where times at work where I would be sitting at my desk where my whole body would just jerk for no apparent reason. It's almost as if my energy body is trying to break free. Those incidents don't occur as much as they did in the beginning where people at work began to stare because I couldn't stop convulsing. I've not yet mastered getting out regularly, it's something that will come with patience and perseverance.

Sometimes I see images of things flash before my eyes when I'm in this obe pre-stage state... I've seen images of alien lifeforms, humans sitting on trains, walking over bridges doing every day things and some unusual looking sentient beings. I believe these are hypnagogic images? Sometimes it's very hard to remember them as they disappear just as quickly as they appear.

You should write everything down that you see, as there are things to learn from it.

any time you start anything that can be perceived as "psychic development" there are always accompanying energy sensations.  you're waking up your energy body and it's stretching it's legs so to say.

Hi, yes I keep a journal. The last month I've become a little sloppy with it but I'll be trying to step things up once I get settled. I'm in the midst of moving abroad to another location which has diverted my attention. I really look forward to exploring these experiences further.

When I first started to invoke my energy body I had some strange sensations as well.Welcome to the forum. I read you were new to this. For me when I am I the obe pre stage. I only see shapes I never see images like your describing just shapes and colors.

anyway have a good one. I can't wait to hear more from you my friend!

Welcome
You are very fortunate to have this thing happen to you, very few people on this planet have experienced something like this. I've a feeling that the number of such people is increasing day by day, or it can be that we are now well informed of such events more and more due to the net. (or can be both).

The sensations you are having are "normal" (although extraordinary). They will subside with time. So you need not worry about them, unless they are causing pain.
These are energy body movements or flows of energy (Prana or chi). As it 'flows' it causes such sensations and spontaneous movements. The sensations of floating up or suddenly falling are also seen. I have personally experienced them and it can feel very odd initially, as if you are in an unreal world.

If the sensations are causing pain or discomfort, it can be due to 'blockages'. The Prana clears them up just like water flowing at high speed pushes obstacles away. If its too much to handle, ground yourself for some weeks. (search 'grounding'). I'd rather advise you to visit a knowledgeable master and learn some basic techniques (like pranayama) to control the energy flow. If you are serious about your spiritual progress, the time is ripe now.

IMO, OBEs are a sign of active Kundalini (especially those that are induced from waking state and when exit is through the crown). The visions you see are also a sign of such activity and shows that your third eye is now active. These may not last forever, it gets milder and softer over time, but a door to the higher reality is now open for you.

Once the Kundalini flows vigorously and continuously, this door opens wide and you can access the higher realms even while fully awake and active. The tale-tell sign of Kundalini flow is pulsations at all 7 chakras.  There are techniques to activate Kundalini at will, but these should not be attempted without proper guidance.

All the best and keep as posted.

Hello thank you all for your kind words and encouraging feedback. I've now relocated to Singapore from London, UK. Hopefully when I settle down here I will be able to give the obe and energy experiences my undivided attention. At the moment I'm crashing on a friends sofa which I'm not finding very conducive to the process. Also I feel I have a real fear that is preventing me from going further with my obe musings... do you have any guidance or tips in overcoming this senseless fear? It is rather silly as I realise as it's all in my mind. Lately it has even transpired into my dreams where a few nights ago in my dream me and my mother where being chased by a dinosaur it actually sounds very funny as I type this but at the time it was very frightening. I believe the dinosaur is representing my anxiousness of having moved to a new country and also some deep rooted fears I possess. I am trying to say positive affirmations and asking my guides for their support, but I still find it difficult... sometimes I feel asthough I am somehow sabotaging myself. I know that if I focus I can get out of body and have amazing experiences but I also feel reluctant as to what I will find there... did people have similar feelings before they began their obe journeys? Wishing you all well on your journeys.

With love,
J
