into the beyond
From 18th November 2012
I’ve finally found time today to write up the experience I had this morning. I woke up at 6am and as it was Sunday had the luxury of turning over and going back to sleep. I thought an OBE would be nice so I repeated ‘Now I’m out of body,’ ‘Now I’m out-of-body,’ as I went off back to sleep.
I love meditating, just allowing myself to let go for a while of the physical reality and expanding my consciousness into the beyond. Sometimes the human body seems so small to fit into, it feels like wearing a pair of tight jeans.
No Sunday morning OBEs to report but a night full of dreams and one in particular made me feel good.
I was with a group of people and we were organising something, a project. I’ve been doing a lot of organising lately so this really comes as no surprise. There was a lot to do and we were working our way through the business of the day.

I haven’t had a conscious OBE for a while, I haven’t been trying, it has been a period when I really needed to focus my attention in the physical and just let my night time activities ‘run wild’ without my interference. I think just ‘allowing’ can also help us, I believe important work goes on all the time whether we are conscious of it or not.
Introduction
I am not a monk tucked away in some quiet corner of the world where no one will disturb me, I am not someone who meditates every day, though I probably should. I usually manage to go to bed early and listen to some binaural beats, sometimes I even make it through to the end without falling asleep.

This morning I had an interesting experience which has kind of ‘bled over’ into the physical. Before I continue I should say I don’t practise any religion. I left my body, in my obes lately I have been working a lot on developing control of my mind and my intention in this experience was no different. My intention before going to sleep had been to exit my body but stay in my room and practice controling my mind.
Today I’d like to share a dream I had, it was a very simple dream but it was one of those emotionally powerful dreams which stick in your mind the morning after.
In the dream the main character was a catholic priest, I don’t think the choice of religion is important, my mind probably used catholicism because living in Italy it is the major religion.
One of my greatest pleasures in life is writing up an OBE in the morning, this morning, however, I don’t remember any. I do think it is important not to feel frustrated if we try but don’t manage to have an out-of-body experience. Getting frustrated can have a negative effect.
I seem to be on an ‘OBE roll’ this week. I suspect it has something to do with being relaxed and not having to get up early. We still have another week and a half left of the summer hols. Once the schools start and my rhythm has to change so may the OBE frequency.
In the early hours of this morning I was trying a variation of an astral projection technique. The basic technique is keeping the mind awake while the body falls asleep. If you manage it, it is a lovely sensation, but it is not always easy.
