I just finished listening to this interview of a person who had an out of body experience and alien contact. It was fascinating!
Listening to the experience reminds me of my own out-of-body experience.
When I was in my early 20s I was a workaholic.
I was working up to 20 hours a day on my online business that was getting busier and busier.
It was great money but it came at a cost.
Anyway, I wasn’t sleeping well. I was eating poorly. I was depressed and unhappy.
During this time I was having sleep paralysis.
I didn’t think ‘sleep paralysis’ had any connection to out of body experiences but I recently learned that it’s the first step.
It was common for me to have sleep paralysis, it was not a fun time.
It felt like something was holding me down. I even had bad dreams where it felt as if some entity was sitting on my chest, sucking my essence.
That was my experience with it.. I had no idea what it was, or that many other people had the similar experiences until much later.
Anyway, one night I popped out of my body.
I learned later that that was Astral Projection.
From an out of body state I could see my body laying there.. I was sleeping.
In this out of body state I was in the corning of the room just floating there.
I could see 360 degrees all around me.. my senses were magnified.. even though it was pitch dark in the room I could see clear as day, even sharper than any experience I had previously.
I scanned the room.
I realized I popped out of my body and my immediate thought was a bit sadness and a notion of “oh crap”.
I took it as though I was dying or had died.
I looked at my body laying there and continued to scan the room.
I felt alone.
Then I thought “I’m not ready to go yet.”
And the moment I had that thought I instantly entered my body.
Once in my body it felt like there was 100 pounds sitting on my chest and it was a huge struggle to sit-up (this was the sleep paralysis).
With all my might I sat up and felt my heartbeat so hard through my chest.
I was terrified.
I felt as if I almost died.
Reflecting years later, I was astral projecting.
I was outside of my body, experiencing reality I didn’t know existed.
While out of the body it felt very natural as if I knew I wasn’t the body, as if I knew I was in the body for a certain period of time.. I even thought as much..
When I said “I’m not ready to go yet.”; it felt as if I came here with a purpose or something I wanted to experience or get out of this experience. I KNEW that in the out of body state.
Listening to the out of body experience from the linked video, it was a very similar experience minus the alien experience.
Years later I realized what I experienced.
We are not the body, but instead we are the soul essence embodied for a period of time. You can call that the consciousness. The awareness. The soul. The Spirit. Whatever you want to call it, we are not the body.
In the out of body state I was simply awareness.
I was me without the physical body.
I didn’t have the physical sensations or strong emotions as when embodied.
It’s the body that magnifies emotions.
In the out of body state, I had thoughts but those thoughts were more neutral.
When I realized I was out of body I felt scared but it wasn’t the out of control dread that I felt once I got back in my body.
Basically the body is very emotional.. while our true essence is more even tempered.
I learned that my thoughts was the thing that controlled my experience.
The moment I had a thought it happened instantly.
I learned that in the out of body state, things happen instantly, without delay.
While in the body, we are delayed by the body and physical reality.
I understand now why a person may become depressed or frustrated with their existence here because they know deep down that on the other side, things are differently.
Earth School
Being here now is a hard experience because we are embodied, in a body that has emotional memory.
Our body here stores memories and those memories are triggered due to our thoughts.
If we don’t clear these emotional memories or rather process our emotional experiences often, they build up and impact our ability to do what we want to do here unencumbered.
An important thing to do while embodied is to process our emotions often with the purpose to be as clear as a channel as possible.
I found Chakra focused meditations do a great job of clearing our energy centers and becoming a clear channel.
The more we process our emotions, the more clear of a channel we become.
The more fear a person has the more they identify with the body and less of their true essence.
I learned that the body has its own consciousness that keeps it alive while we are not embodied.
When the body’s consciousness is overly fearful it doesn’t allow the true essence to come in unencumbered.
The moment the BODY feels safe, secure and trusting.. the more it can relax.
And the more the BODY relaxes, the more the true essence can drive the body.
Think of it like a car with an autopilot feature.
It’s a great feature to have but sometimes you would like to take over and drive the car, but if the car doesn’t disengage autopilot, you then are just a passenger going for a ride
To disengage autopilot, you must relax in all aspects.. you physical body, your emotional body, your mental body.
As you relax your body, emotions, and thoughts, it allows your higher essense to flow through you like water.
It’s as if a flow of energy flows through your body and permeates every cell of your body..
The more you let go and surrender control, the autopilot disengages.
You have to allow your higher essense to step in at that point and take over.. that higher essense is the true you that has always been there but was more of an observer up to this point.
As this higher essense steps in and drives, life becomes more magical.
You start to feel more at peace and calm.
You feel connected to nature and to everything around you.
You are allowing your higher self to step in and drive the body.
You are disengaging autopilot.
It requires a deep trust and knowing that you will be okay and that the universe has your back.
Most people don’t experience this naturally.
Later on I had other more magical experiences astral projecting.
I traveled to different worlds.
I was a dragon.
I met my higher self.
I reached source.
And I came back here to experience this reality in this now moment.
When you are a high dimensional dragon, flying around helping others, healing others and manifesting instantly to come back into a physical body here, you get a bit upset.
That’s how I felt at least.
But I know one day I will go back to that magical state.
I am here now for this experience which in itself is magical.
We can embody any body but we choose to be here as humans at this time.
We are extremely powerful high vibrational beings.
It is not easy to embody physical bodies with so much emotional baggage and fear.. it’s very difficult to do that but we are so powerful we can do it.
We are extremely powerful spiritual beings.
I think most people don’t realize how powerful they truly are to be here now..
Watch the video, I think you’ll enjoy it.
Peace!
