The Malleable Light

I just wanted to mention this.. as it’s interesting!

Firstly.. a bit of background. I’m a bit of a DJ, bedroom mainly but can play the odd party. I play breakbeat and I’ve got myself my own sound> It’s a leftover from my past lifestyle.. but I still dig a good breakbeat tune..(not too heavy though as some get way too dark and heavy for me)

Anyway there is a music store here in my little town that still sells vinyl.. i play vinyl.. there’s not many around anymore.. even in the cities.. i could travel 2hrs to the closest capital and they’d be flat having a larger vinyl stand than these guys.. I’m well known in the store and probably one of their more consistent customers..

So.. this morning I woke from a dream where the main fellow that owns the record shop is in the shop but it’s a much bigger shop.. it’s still located where it is in reality but the shop has extended into some of the other shops beside it and there is a huge “storage” type room off to the west side of the building.. The shop is painted differently than in reality. It has two shades of colour on the walls.. the top two 3rds is a shade of darker green & the bottom 3rd a dark blue colour..

The only people in the room are David (a co-owner) and myself.. There are no CD’s etc in the main room.. in the other “storage” room I see vinyl records sitting on the floor..

Eventually I transition into my awake state and while lying in bed remembering this I feel worried that maybe they are going out of business or struggling financially and that they need to change the room around to attract new customers etc..

Well.. I was in town today and I was so close to the vinyl store I decided to pop in.. partly to see what’s happening because of my dream and partly to see if they had received in any vinyl I had ordered lately..

After G’days and greeting each other.. I said to both Deb (the other co-owner) and Dave who were both there.. I had a dream this morning about this place.. “I dreamt that you were changing the place around”..

Deb (who was partly busy doing something else) flung her head around and asked “why? what did you hear? who told you?” in quick succession.

I said “noone i dreamt it”…

Then she told me a story.. they are looking at moving the business up the same street a little into a much bigger space that has become vacant.. There’s even an upstairs there which they are going to dedicate to vinyl..

I even explained to her about the colours I saw and she said a friend of hers that had inspected the empty space with her had thought of doing a 1/3rd-2/3rd colour split but they we thinking green and yellow…

Deb’s only seen inside this space once and they’ve just today had someone inspect it for them.. So who knows yet… it’s pretty early..

I figure somehow I was attracted to some kind of Astral Thought Bubble that Deb & Dave are creating and I’ve now begun to interact with..

It just seems so cool to me that this sort of thing is going on in the astral, mostly without our knowing..

I’ve just woken from this so it’s an exciting start to the day to say the least..

I was dreaming.. it was a lengthy, vivid colourful dream one NEARLY worth telling.. eventually it progresses and I notice the scene in the dream has changed.. It’s still vivid and colourful and because it has been so vivid I wonder how I got to this scene.. Plus I’m naked and no one else is.. I’m sort of sitting/lying on the grass in this scene.. a quick question to myself suggests this is a bit weird and likely a dream! Here I become lucid… My Mrs is sitting beside me on the grass.. I’m super excited by this point.. I pat her on the back a few times with love and excitement and shout a feeling like “Yes! OBE?”

The plan was clear.. just sit up in bed! As the scene moved from the dream to the back of my eyelids I felt quick but most pleasant quite unusual vibrations (different than i’d ever felt doing vipassana) throughout my body.. AND i simply sat up…

I could see a little in the bedroom but it didn’t last long.. I then found myself in my body again and tried to sit up again… I felt the vibrations again but this experience also didn’t last long.. I remember something happening on this exit but after waking I couldn’t remember this exit aside from the actual exit sensations and then sitting up… I then found myself in my body (again with vibrations) but now i had difficulty sitting straight up.. I moved around a bit in an attempt to get out and at one stage had no idea of my orientation with regard to my physical body. I was completely confused…

I remembered one of the Lucidology videos and decided the way I was facing was possibly the same as my physical body so I decided to switch ends and hopefully have my astral feet up the end of my physical bodies head (Phew !).. Anyway this felt more loose and I found that a bit of rolling loosened me up and I simply rolled out onto the floor.. I could feel the floor underneath me.. I then crawled as I couldn’t stand and crawled to the end of the bed..

At the end of the bed I felt lighter and stood up and at the same time as I was just about to look for my physical body in bed I was so excited that I screamed my partners name with excitement saying “look i’m out”… My two children were there and came running up to me (though my youngest is only 5months and sort of floated/ran to me).. I heard them giggling and laughing and obviously happy with their Dads transition to this state.. but then I noticed my physical body wasn’t asleep in bed and the sheets on my side of the bed were even pulled back I thought I was actually awake and the rolling onto the floor and everything else after that was experienced in my physical body..

At this point my attention wavered and I slipped out of consciousness… A very short time later I then noticed I was still lying in bed.. damn! I tricked myself! I could feel vibrations again and started to remember the experience and got so excited about remembering and writing it down that I couldn’t exit again as I was becoming too awake!

Two interesting things:
1. I believe this was my first OBE as exit sensations were present and I feel like I had the same/similar consciousness in the short OBE as I do while awake although I was definitely not in the RTZ (Real Time Zone)
2. Interesting how I/we devalue the waking state enough to be happy to loose and at times consciously aim to loose consciousness in it – Thinking I was awake in physical and devaluing the awake state is why I lost consciousness in this OBE experience.

I wish I got up to write this dream down this morning after I woke from it.. but I decided not to write it anywhere as I wanted more sleep.. i took a little time to remember it before drifting off to sleep again but as we all know it’s much harder to remember a dream after drifting off to sleep again..

Anyway.. it was brilliant to say the least.. as per the title, my memory of it is short as I only remember the last little bit..

I’m with two or three other men.. sometimes I’m the third man at other times I’m watching the third man as if i’m seperate from him.. The first quality that stikes me about these men is they are ALL powerful.. physically they are well built.. solid.. muscular but not too muscular… energetically they have a powerful presence..  i don’t consider myself to be like this.. they have an energy that I imagine would be alluring to women and as a man you want to be like them.. they seem in control of their life.. they have an essence of security.. they believe in themselves.. you can feel it.. i’m sure you’ve met men like this..

I remember the three of us running and at this stage I am now, definately the third man. We are running.. the sky is blue… there are hills and beautiful scenery in front of us.. all around are picturesque surroundings.. colourful with a crystal like quality.. we continue running.. i’m kind of following the other two.. then they run and jump off the edge of a cliff and fly.. I follow them… i don’t think it odd at all and run and jump off the edge of the cliff with them..

this is where the magic happens.. as i am in the air.. i look at the surroundings.. begin to fly and instantly I become part of the sunshine!!

I became part of the sunshine.. the golden sunshine.. WOW.. that was brilliant.. at that moment i had no body.. my consciousness (as i know it) was present but it was fused with the consciousness of the sunshine… I’m not sure the sunshine was aware of my presence but it and I were joined.. I was aware of it and myself equally… 50-50…

I would be unlikely to post too many other non-lucid dreams here but as you can see this was quite special for me and as such I though it was worthy of mention here..

Thanks

This morning I found myself dreaming.. during which I became lucid.. I’m not sure what triggered the lucidity… I have been doing a few reality checks from time to time in physical lately but after gaining lucidity the memory was…  ”that doesn’t happen in real life” – “I must be dreaming” although I am not sure of the exact situation that preceeded the lucidity…

Instead of continuing with the Lucid Dream and seeing where it would take me I made the decision to make an Astral Projection attempt.. I believe the speed at which I made the switch hampered my efforts… On gaining lucidity, I straight away made the choice as I had planned on an Astral Projection should I become lucid in the near future – To my demise I hadn’t planned a way to achieve this… The method I made up on the spot was to feel for my physical body.. as this is kind of what happened in an experience I had here… The scene I was in began to break down instantly.. What I was looking at degraded into a white fuzz.. I continued to feel for my physical body.. At this stage I began to wonder whether I would feel vibrations begin in my physical body… Then sadly enough.. consciousness was lost..

I’m not sure if I fell back to sleep or what happened but as I thought about this today I had two ideas.

1. Make a plan – constructing lucid dream or Astral Projection goals or scenarios may not only help in prolonging & gaining lucidity in dreams, it may also foster a purpose for projecting astrally.. It may not only be useful to plan like I did – “when i next become lucid i will attempt to use it as a pathway to an Astral Projection experience” – but it may also be useful to create a method of how this might be achieved – eg. I might try shifting the dream to my bedroom to look at my physical body (or a better idea I can think of before the next Lucid Dream.. other ideas are only limited by imagination i assume)

2. Ensure a conscious stream is present before altering things too quickly – ie. maintain lucidity without loosing consciousness or being sucked back into the dream scenario.. Going along with the dream (to a degree) has partly helped me maintain lucidity in dreams before.. which is in contrast to quick changes of scenery I have tried (like catching a bus for example – which resulted in the dream deteriorating when I got off the bus as the scene wasn’t constructed – strangely enough in this past example the minorly formed scene also degraded into white fuzz before i woke up). Ensuring a conscious stream for at least a short time may be likely to assist in the Lucid Dream -> Astral Projection process..

I’m open to suggestions and feedback..
