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! :)
