this is something i was doing last night

its simple a mantra  i made up

ok im in bed at night, relaxing one hand on diaphram,

so i start saying every in and out

" Please My Guardian Angel Take Me To A Higher Realm "

after .... 20 mins i started to see like a tunnel, black around the out side and light coming closer

unfortuneatly i keep getting itchy and distracted, probaly something to do with the shadow or dark side (fear) not wanting me to "see the light"

any comments please

Well, if you can experience itching, you're still too focused in the physical.  Then paying attention to itches will only reinforce their existence and presence in your awareness.  I find that if I imagine scratching an itch, it will subside.  But you should try this perhaps after two or three sleep cycles.  This will provide you with a better start.  You probably won't even feel itching.

As for the tunnel, I'm not sure what to make of it.  In Astral Dynamics, Robert Bruce describes a multi-coloured tunnel which provides him access to astral planes.  I have experienced physical and astral vision at the same time (the physical vision "surrounded" the astral vision) when I forcefully tried to reenter my body.  This was comparable to a tunnel effect. 

Anyways, the itch seems to be your only problem, so try the advice I gave.  Or maybe you just need some Gold Bond.

When you begin to ascend to a higher plane first you see a small spot of light, your meant to focus on that light and then you will notice it getting bigger. As this happens you get most of the sensations you do when you begin to astral project and you will feel your breath fading away from you. When the light consumes you, you ascend to the higher plane. During this time your physical body can not breathe as you are fading from the physical plane onto a totally different plane and your soul is temporarily disconnected from your body. After the ascention is complete though your body resumes breathing. For this tunnel of light to appear though it is said you need perfectly active and balanced chakras and you must be focusing on the connection you have with the higher plane through the chakra on the top of your head. Instead of focusing however you spoke to your guardian angel who resides in that plane therefore giving you the connection you needed to begin ascending. Pherhaps.

This is what i know as truth but i don't know if anyone else would agree with me. either way it would explain your experience slightly.

Good for you... what a wonderful Mantra.  it is sure to be beneficial.  I can't believe all the people on so many of the other Pages who don't have the good sense to take such a spiritually common sense path.

But there can be some initial problems involved.

Your Angel may well have taken you to your Higher Realm, but it was a bit so 'High' that there was really nothing for any memory to latch onto.   

I once had the experience of doing the "Hail Mary" Prayer and was caught up into a White Light Vortex that spun me upward toward the Higher Realms, but then I had a discontinuity of Memory, and at the same perceptable moment felt myself descending back downward, just as I had an instant before felt myself rising.  I concluded that I did not remember what had just transpired.   

There was another clue.  As I went up I was saying "Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with Thee".  But when the discontinuity occurred I found myself saying a slightly modified Prayer -- "Hail Mary full of Grace, the World is with Thee".  And then, to multiply the oddness, when I realized the Prayer was different, it was like it triggered a suggested response and I said without thought or intent "Hail Mary Full of Grace, World Lifter".

So I'm thinking, that although I was taken up to where I could have no solid memory, still, these things were given to me. 

We need to realize that although we may have no Memory of these Higher Realm visits, still the experiences our Spirit Bodies have in during these Spiritual Visits may leave a lasting imprint, for the better, on our Character and Persona.

This is what i know as truth but i don't know if anyone else would agree with me. either way it would explain your experience slightly.

I really like the way you phrased this. Truth is subjective and varies for each individual. What is true for you is untrue for someone else or partially true for another.

I happen to disagree with your comment about needing all chakras open and balanced to see/enter white lights. I also do not agree that the body stops breathing. I think the body simply uses its autonomic nervous system to sustain the body while the consciousness is focused in other planes.

To me the description of a long dark tunnel sounds like the 3D blackness. This is a stage in phasing. Where the blackness behind your eyelids seems to open up or engulf you. Then it stretches out like a long tunnel and you find yourself going along it. Sometimes I will see a bunch of white dots in the distance. Each of these is an entry way to an astral locale/plane. But that doesn't mean they are 'higher planes' like one would think of in regards to heaven or angels. They are simply higher than the physical plane. Focusing on any of these points, like any type of travel in the astral, will draw you to it.

And I certainly do not have all of my chakras equally balanced -- still more than enough emotional issues going on with me!   

The physical sensations, as the first poster mentioned, simply meant you were too focused on your physical body still. There were no "dark entities" involved with you feeling itchy. Feeling itchy is a common signal the body sends to the mind to see if its still awake before it shuts down. If you respond to the itch, the body maintains the mind's awareness thereby prohibiting you from phasing your conscsiouness in to other planes. You want to ignore the itching and any other body sensation. Eventually you'll basically forget you have a body. Then you will be able to proceed. But be careful, any excitement that you are succeeding will snap your mind back to your physical body faster than you can blink your eye.

Your body itches if high frequency spirit energies are surging through it and your body tries to adapt to the frequency.

Another thing, as you experience higher realms it happens that the negativity that you carry in your consciousness is pulled to the surface by higher energies you are interacting with to be transmuted, and as this happens, you tend to feel negative (Irritable, angry, confused, fearful, etc.). That is what you were experiencing.
