I stumbled apoun this accidentally while laying on my bed with the light on staring at nothing in particular for a period of 15m. In that period I observed the lights seem to dim and brighten, scenery seem to distort and move. I also recieved auditory distortions and waves of energy and happiness. Further research into this lead me to OEM. Something about connecting with your 'oversoul' and 'future self'.
A quick search on the forums showed nothing of OEM though I didn't dig too far.
Does anyone have any experience with this phenomenon? I'm looking to find some reputable knowledge from a reputable source (Astral Pulse Forums) and any experiences one has had with OEM.
Thanks!
There are various examples of open eyed meditations and in particular relating to astral projection, one such example is where you place a beloved object across from you and you then focus completely on that object until you project. It's no different than any other projection method though as it provides you with a focus, which you focus on to the exclusion of everything else until you project (aka: consciously fall asleep).
Most people actually end up doing this quite by accident, if you've ever fallen asleep while watching tv or reading a book and you find yourself "seeing through your eyelids"... that's an example of an OEM. Just unaware.
Thanks for the reply. I will experiment with this further as an 'exit technique'. I've haven't had much success via close eyed meditation although I can reach deep meditational states. Haven't been able to 'cross over'.
The thing about the 'oversoul', what's that all about?
The best I can suggest is to not fight against the process... simply allow it to happen.
Your only job is to focus on your chosen item until only it and you exist.
