I have had many out of body experiences over the last 30 years, but only a few validated ones worthy to write about and I thought I would revisit one of them in hope of better understanding the interactions and thought process of those walking around our home in spirit or at least from my point of view... One of my most profound and validated out of body experiences happened some years ago here in my home of which I have lived for some 20 years... One night, I found myself out of my body and looking at myself on my bed in a deep sleep, my perception of reality was excellent and my consciousness was totally spiritual. I felt completely separated from my body and quite comfortable with the situation I was in, even though it just happened the way it did and unexpectedly... As I started walking out my room, I felt a desire to find my wife, probably in hope that she would see me and validate myself in spirit and with the wisdom of hindsight, I do believe a vast majority of spirits have that same desire when they find themselves in the home of their loved ones?...as I'd walked down my hallway, I went passed my eldest son's room and focused on the next, where I knew my wife and our youngest son where sleeping.
As I walked into their room, for whatever reason I found myself back in my body fairly quick, it wasn't my choice, something just pulled me straight back? Perhaps sub consciously or consciously from my own body which laid some two rooms and a short distance away from where I was? Once again, I found myself back out of my body and walking out of my room with the desire in reaching my wife to validate the experience and I guess to establish proof that these experiences are real and not dreams or hallucinations. I started walking down the hallway for a second time, my perception was same and my intent was a little more determined with in my thought process. As I'd walked into the room, I'd managed to touch her on her foot... But just like before, once again I found myself back in my body fairly quick and rising out of it just like the previous times... On this occasion, the third and final time I was able to leave my body, there was something different I was able to observe upon walking into their room... On the first two times I made it to their room, I'd noticed that my son was facing the wall and my wife was facing opposite to him more towards the entry point of the room... Basically I could see her face the first two times from where I'd entered the room... This time upon arriving to their room, my wife had turned over and now was facing the wall as in the same direction as my son... I had no idea at that point my wife had picked up on me walking into their room on all three occasions and actually was quite frightened but not willing to open her eyes... I make this point, because I wonder how many spiritual visitors enter homes with the same intent to validate their presence, only to frighten the person for all the wrong reasons and I would like to hear your own thoughts on that, in hope we can better understand some of these interactions... Rather than hauntings?
The following morning and most of the day my wife had said nothing about the previous night and I was starting to wonder if what happened was real or not and patiently waiting to see if she had any recollection of my interactions the night before... Sometime later in the afternoon, I decided to get the ball rolling in general conversation and mentioned to my wife, that I thought someone was here last night... She said YES... There was someone here, someone touched me on my foot!...she also mentioned that someone walked in a few times and after a little more validating she also confirmed to me that upon the last time, she turned over and faced the wall keeping her eyes shut in fear of seeing something there... I do understand that there are some ghost out there with malicious intent and some stories here are genuine hauntings, but I do believe there are many more miss interpreted ones from a view point of my wife, but not the intent from the visitor, who I believe are just trying to validate themselves to their loved ones rather than frightening them just like my intent was in this story... I welcome your thoughts.
Is it possible to have an OBE, or project or astral travel, to a place that you've never been "in person"?
(and never seen photos of, or anything like that)
There's a place, a very specific place, that I have recurring dreams of- if that's what they are. I'll have to write it up one of these days.
