Experience description:
1st experience:
I was waking very
slowly, lying in my bed at home, feeling my self drift back into my body
awareness, and dreaming of nothing in particular. At first I registered a lot of
light, with my eyes closed. So I opened my eyes a slit and thought 'it must be
an angel' I was scared and hopeful! The light bathed my room, everything seemed
so bright and different, difficult to express or define, I also just felt
euphoric. I was in my own bedroom, so I couldn't do more than look about my
belongings and see the same items but feel so different, so complete. I quickly
but carefully dressed. I was aware I felt very complete and happy, so I was just
'hanging on' to that feeling or mood.
The next thing I recall
is walking down from my home, to the town centre. A walk of a mile or so. I
wanted to find out what the outside world looked like, and experience it whilst
I felt so totally happy, peaceful and euphoric. I was consciously trying to stay
at this emotional 'high' being very careful to move and think slowly so as to
try and perpetuate this wonderful sense of peace and oneness> I just felt
terrific, it is difficult to describe exactly the emotional rightness of this
day.
As I walked down into
town I looked ahead, and found I could see a very long distance, and in much
greater detail than I had ever been able to before. All the things I looked at
had a rainbow of extra colours, well not exactly, they seemed to radiate these
extra colours and so seemed brighter and more meaningful. I tested my sight as I
realized things were different. I looked ahead at some bricks on a wall of a
house some 800 yards away (end of the street. I could consciously describe the
broken edges and cracks of a set of bricks. At that moment I knew my vision was
beyond normal, possibly beyond that of an eagles. It was impossible. Yet as I
walked towards the bricks I was right about every detail.
This feeling faded
after walking about for about two hours or perhaps three.
2nd experience.
I had a conscious
dream, very detailed and so exact it had colour, items placed, I walked a
journey, and I felt emotions as I did so. On waking I could recall every detail,
and knew it was special event/dream.
At the very end of the
dream, as I knew the dream was coming to an end and I was becoming more awake I
saw a field, walked through into the field to look at a great view and thought I
'd like total a trip on a UFO. I watched as one landed in the field then heard a
voice say 'not this time' with a smile, and seemed to feel a finger being held
up, waving infant of me, as one would with a slightly naughty child. Then I woke
quickly with full recall of the dream.
Three years later as I
went through two swing doors in my university, a spot on the campus I had never
been to before, and I 'entered' my dream. It was like a complete half hour of
perfect match to the dream. Even the small details. Was blown away. How could I
possibly see into a future, any future?
Any associated
medications or substances with the potential to affect the experience?
No
Was the kind of
experience difficult to express in words?
Yes
During first
event colours were beyond our vocabulary to define as the experience was beyond
the ability of our bodies to sense or imagine.
The second event felt
just like an impossibly detailed dream, as if I had lived the event.
At the time of this
experience, was there an associated life threatening event?
No
What was your level of
consciousness and alertness during the experience?
Full and increased.
Was the experience
dream like in any way?
The first started at
wake up, but a lot of my younger years I was in a dream like sort of
consciousness all day!
The second was a dream
that was then experienced in full normal awareness - believe me I was awake once
I recognized where I was!
Did you experience a
separation of your consciousness from your body?
No
What emotions did you
feel during the experience?
In the first experience
I was elated, euphoric and just fascinated with my abilities and wonderful
emotive state
In the second
experience I was awake but dreaming, it felt strange to be so awake and I knew
as I was dreaming that this was unusual.It just felt fun.
Did you hear any
unusual sounds or noises?
No unusual
noises, just the visual experiences dominated my focus
Did you recognize any
familiar locations or any locations from familiar religious teachings or
encounter any locations inhabited by incredible or amazing creatures?
No
I was in normal England
Did you see a light?
Uncertain
At the start of
experience 1 I am sure it started with a bright light that I could sense was
bathing my room even with my eyes closed.
Did you meet or see
any other beings?
No
1st
experience, I experimented for a few hours with emotional feel and visual and
consciousness level.
2nd experience I was
only aware of its full relevence three years on, and during the time it took me
to wander the whole route I had taken in my dream I was testing the dreams
accuracy - it was 100% in great detail (even sheep on a hill and a big red
double decker bus in the right location). Unfortunately although the field and
the view at the end of the walk were there - exactly as the dream portrayed -
there was no UFO ;(
Did you observe or
hear anything regarding people or events during your experience that could be
verified later?
Yes
2nd experience This was
a three year fully precognitive event. I walked the whole route as in the dream,
took me over an hour to do this and everything was correct.
To me it was a wake up
call, a message: I felt someone had shown me I was doing the right thing, that I
was on the right path in life, that science was good but incomplete in its
understanding, that I needed just to trust my life.
Did you notice how
your 5 senses were working, and if so, how were they different?
Yes
All my senses
were working in both events. memory of sight was the primary and so was emotion.
Consciousness was present in heightened form in both.
Did you have any sense
of altered space or time?
Uncertain
In my dream on the
second event it is clear to me the dream was not ordinary because it was so
precise, detailed and followed a sensible walk or passage, so this was unusual
for a dream.
Did you have a sense
of knowing, special knowledge, universal order and/or purpose?
Yes
Afterwards in
both experiences I felt as if I had been given a gift, and treasured and thought
a lot about these events.
Did you reach a
boundary or limiting physical structure?
Yes
The UFO was out of
bounds, in a friendly way! Not
exactly, but I suspected the 2nd event was a premonition, but had no real idea
of it carrying a message except once the 'real' event occurred then both dream
and event became a message of direction and a short but full message about
reality.
Were you involved in
or aware of a decision regarding your return to the body?
No
Did you have any
psychic, paranormal or other special gifts following the experience that you did
not have prior to the experience?
Uncertain I have
always felt very certain there was order and love in our universe, and that
there was no death, just life after life. I sometimes feel I am allowed to be
psychic on specific occasions, but most of the time I'm just a simple normal
person with very strong feelings of right and wrong.
Did you have any
changes of attitudes or beliefs following the experience?
Yes
My spiritual
beliefs were strengthened. I found many reasons to question the negative
messages in christianity but embrace still the positive and inclusive ones. All
religions are one to me. Religion is a business for some people and a social
event for others and a wonderful acceptance of God to others, I enjoy it that
people are looking in the right direction but feel sad that they fail to look
further as its rules are crude versions of the beauty of the truth.
How has the experience
affected your relationships? Daily life? Religious practices? Career choices?
In so many ways, I
feel as if I have been just gently nudged onto a better path, and given a
strength I did not think I had. I am certain I no longer fear death but I am
just the same muddle headed human with cotton wool for a brain!
It has altered the way
I approached my Chiropractic practice, my patients. I just wish to give. I never
advertised, except to give a truthful story or report, and never ran a regular
'see you next month' practice. I relied entirely on patients that needed my care
and treated them with great care and truthfulness. In return I seemed to become
more intuitive and loved my practice, I miss it dreadfully. I now wait for my
next task.
Has your life changed
specifically as a result of your experience?
Yes
I am more
careful with others, more empathetic, and I love the life I live as much as I
can. I head towards positivity as against drift towards negativity.
Have you shared this
experience with others?
Yes
It is fun to share, if
people are receptive. I get many of their experiences in return. Many patients
have amazing things to say. Many have had no such experience, and it means less
to them, so every time I can I mention my experiences, it seems to help people
as I have a profession and a lifestyle they can trust.
What was the best and
worst part of your experience?
In both cases that they
are such isolated incidents it seems sad. I feel slightly abandoned but also
know our lives feel like a journey, so perhaps things are just meant to be this
way.
Is there anything else
you would like to add concerning the experience?
I have had other
experiences, one that saved my life. It seems like living a normal life is a
deliberately handicapped event.
Following the
experience, have you had any other events in your life, medications or
substances which reproduced any part of the experience?
Uncertain As
above, I have had other events.
