Out of Body Experience Induced with Headphones!

I got into a habit of meditating in the early afternoon. I use The Monroe Institute Gateway Cd's to get into a deep state of relaxation. After several weeks of practice, I was getting good at relaxing and getting into a place where I wasn't even aware of my breathing anymore, where I was just existing. The hardest part, was letting go of the breathing and the little itches and fidgets.

Usually, you tune out these sensations when you're in the moment, and concentrating. But when you are just lying there conscious of your body, trying to relax, those things really amplify, especially early on. But when you use binaural beats, other entrainment techniques, music, and time tested mental tools, it will increase your focus, and the brain's ability to enter the desired state.

The phenomenon of hemispheric synchronization, coined by The Monroe Institute, occurs as the brain interprets separate tones into binaural beats. The binaural entrainment method promotes full brain harmony between hemispheres as well as the entraining "frequency-follow-response effect" that dials your brain to a specific frequency. These phenomena working together can help anyone tune out chatter in the mind and end the fidgety itches that come with first timers syndrome in meditation and relaxation.

One particular day I was relaxing in the void, and it was like any other day. I was not thinking of anything and I had not done anything out of the ordinary. I was just floating in the void, drifting off to sleep and in the middle of nothingness, in the middle of a breath I wasn't even aware I was breathing—WHAM! There was this explosion that came from about my belly button, maybe somewhere at the bottom of my spine, and at this moment from being in nothingness and nowhere but knowing I was in the center of my head, which had expanded, I had become definitely small, inside my spine, I was inside myself down in the bottom of my spine.

At the very first instant, the initial moment of this explosion of energy, I found my self with my consciousness inside the base of my spine and I could see up my spinal column. In this initial explosive moment of consciousness relocation, the energy explosion of feeling literally illuminated the way above me. What the light illuminated looked like inner spinal pieces. I could see little bones that were outcroppings going up like the inside of my spine clear as shining a flashlight. The explosion was propelling me instantaneously upward through my spine. I could see things moving past me that looked like nerves and bone, cartilage and flesh! I looked up as I arrived to the top of my spine in an instant. I saw two holes where my eyes were. At first they were dark, and as I rushed up to them, the light surrounded them and I could see the holes clearly as I rushed through and burst out with this wave of energy that was propelling me.

Instantaneously, a being caught me, now back in the (a new?) void. This being caught me and was cradling me. I could see this whole thing happening from the eyes that I had just been propelled out of, but also, I was experiencing this from the me that had just been propelled out through the eyes. I was being cradled in the arms of someone, something that was beyond any intelligence I have ever met. I couldn't make out features, as this being was ethereal, like an idea. So was I and this whole state was not physical. However this being communicated in thought ideas that I understood, and it was anthropomorphic and humanoid in stature. But it felt like a very large being. Either the being was very large or I was a very small baby, but the proportions felt like I was an infant and this being was Mother.

Later I saw the image of the Madonna and child and it clicked with my experience. Like the mortal coil, the Madonna and child was the exact pose I was in with this being, and the feeling I get and have gotten from any Madonna and Child image since this experience is ghostly and awe inspiring. I was not raised with these symbols and only first learned about the image of the Madonna and child in art history class. But the first time I saw the Madonna and Child after that experience it hit me like lightening.

In the moment I was shot out my eyes with this energy, the being caught me, and it cradled me. In one motion it bent down its head to touch my forehead. At this moment I was in the perspective of the baby. I was being cradled by this being and as it touched my forehead with its forehead, BAM!
There was a huge burst of energy. The being transmitted a thought, which lit me up. It transmitted that the reason for my specific life, the purpose of my specific life was to nurture growth, and foster creative growth itself, the creative force in all of its manifestations. The purpose is to experience it, to do it, to make it happen and to love it. This wasn't the end all be all thought on the meaning of life. This was very specific about me and what my intention was.

This thought was given to me, and at the moment of thought transfer, I was also remembered I was the creator of this thought. I remembered that this thought was agreed upon by, the person, or the being that was transmitting the thought, but I remember that I, or we, decided this all previous to this life, that this life was to be about fostering creative growth and having it manifest to nurture it. It was an indescribable thought and it came from before I was born, before I was in this life. I need to reiterate that the thought transmitted, felt like it originated, and was decided upon before I was born.

I am so skeptical about any of this kind of stuff, but the moment that this thought that was transmitted, flashed to me, I remembered intentions I had from before I was born. It's like when you have a dream, you remember when it happened, when you recall a memory, you remember the context of it all and what your motivations were at the time. When you decided to paint the wall yellow, you were motivated by things in that point in time. And this thought that was being transmitted to me, was being transmitted from a decision that was like, "Hey remember what we decided?"

So I was flooded up my apparent spinal column, which I could see because of the illuminated light behind me. I flew out my eyes, which became illuminated around the eye holes as I was rushed out. I was caught by this being which cradled me, leaned down, and connected its forehead to mine. Instantly my mind flashed that the point of my life is to grow and foster creativity in all the ways that it can manifest in the world. Not just through art and music, although those are awesome, but through everything, through the art of the ways to live, the way to see quality and to act with care in everything that you do.

The whole rush of energy, felt like being in the center of a motorcycle engine, vibrating throughout my entire body. This energy was dynamic and turbulent enough to propel my consciousness like a raft on white water rapids. It can only be likened to the feeling of intense pins and needles, but instead of a dull throbbing pain that comes on after many minutes of pinched inactivity, this comes on suddenly with an orgasmic-like pleasure explosion, but in a wholesome pure state of excited bliss.

As the thought that had been transmitted to me subsided, I became aware of intense feelings of bliss and love for my place in the universe and this chance to be. Tears began to well up in my closed eyes, and then the tears gave way when my eyelids couldn't contain them. The warm tears streamed out of the sides of my eyelids and onto my pillow. The warm wetness turning cool on my skin in the afternoon air was enough sensation to remind me of my physical body I had left behind.

With intense bliss and butterflies of motorcycle engine love dissipating from my body, I opened my eyes and took in the profoundness of what I had just experienced. This had changed everything. Who or what was that being? What had just happened? How did I seem to remember something from before my life began? I was now living in a world that just delivered an experience beyond what my wildest imagination could ever conceive.
