Is there anything else you would like to add concerning the experience?        With the second one, the person's house I was visiting saw a big smile on my face while meditating and unfortunately decided to call out my name (very stupid) to get my attention.  When he did that, I literally fell down back into my body with a small jolt. My energy (me) literally started falling, with my back to the ground.  I felt the wind rushing past me as I dropped into my body. But, I still thought it was an amazing experience and was delighted to share it.
