Astral projection and out of body experiences....

Have you ever felt like you were dreaming but somehow find that you are looking at yourself sleeping on the bed some time in the middle of the night? For most of us, we just call it dreams we sometimes have, but for some it could be a form of OBE, or commonly known as out-of-body-experience, or astral projection.

Although I cannot confirm the truth to such things, I think I might have had one of these experiences. For the past 3 months or so, I have been getting weird dreams, sometimes awfully vivid and scary. There were times I find myself seeing people I have never met, know names that do not ring a bell, see events that I have never come across in my entire life.

Because dreams like these came so frequently, I could have sworn that I was experiencing OBEs or something along those lines. You'd probably think I am crazy if I said the dreams felt so incredibly real that I could have sworn I could reach out my hands and feel what I was seeing.

Most of the time I end up waking up out of sudden, and realising I am in my bed. Some friends of mine said I could be just going through one of those bad sleep habit periods and my mind just isn't at rest. But if these sort of dreams happen close to everyday for almost 3 months, it really does get me wondering about whether are there mere dreams or something more.

But over the past 2 to 3 weeks the frequency of these dreams have slowly decreased as I take some timeout during weekdays to just do some yoga meditation to just calm my mind down and try to relax my body. Goes to show, the mind sure can play tricks on you if you are not in the right awareness to control your own mind.

Search out OBE and astral projection on Wikipedia. It is quite interesting to read about it actually! :)

hiatus!

After having been online on the ~Path of Time~ since 2006..... it is going to be hard, painful and sad. As of today, I will officially stop writing on the ~Path of Time~. For those who have continued to read my posts, I thank you very much for taking timeout to read my posts. I am not sure if all my writings were great but I'll be happy to know even if it was only one post that reached your heart. I may one day pick up from where I left off here but only time will tell. Who knows I might even start afresh? Until next time.......... time stops ticking for the ~Path of Time~

one foot in the past, another in the future........ what about the present?

All of us go through a cycle, what we commonly call - the past, present and the future. It can probably be summed up by this simple phrase: " we come from the past to be in the present and look forward to the future ". Now, what I want you to do is take a step back, or just give your mind a minute or two to digest the above mentioned phrase. Ask yourself if it applies to you. Really ask yourself; and I mean REALLY ask yourself in the most honest of manner, whether it really applies to you. You may find it difficult to arrive at a 'yes' and even if you do, you probably find yourself in a paralysis state of mind trying to justify the 'yes'. If you really ponder about it, you are likely to find that most of us would find this phrase more relevant instead: " we come from the past and look forward to the future " You will find many of us either hang on to the past or look far too forward into the future, or likely for some to even be dwelling too much in ...

my first tow truck ride

It was like every other Saturday morning for me yesterday. Woke up early to get breakfast, get ready for my weekly rock climbing sessions. I felt pretty good yesterday since I managed to sleep the night before so I was feeling very energized and upbeat about my climb session. I might have spoke too soon though because my car decided to pull a fast one on me. I found it surprising because I always went on preventive maintenance for my car so I really wasn't expecting any breakdowns especially I didn't hear any sound symptoms, neither did I saw any signs of an impending breakdown. After all, it is only logical that mechanical parts would give out some form of symptoms to let you know it's about to go. I was actually driving myself to rock climbing, feeling all geared up and gung-ho about it. As I approached an uphill climb and right bend, I realised I was losing compression and the car was starting not respond to my pedal work on the accelerator. To make matters worse because...
