I think I can safely say I had my first OOB experience. Wow, it was so beautiful. There was a young woman my age, in her 20s, who was with me while I was with the black. She was helping my mind leave my body. I kept going through a bunch of dream sequences, to which I had kept coming back to the black. I was hearing some noises, but nothing that took my distraction away. In my visual, when I had focused on my eyes, I was seeing what looked like symbols in a bright golden colour, and I heard voices say that I did not understand them. They were right, I did not.
There was also this golden colour of this small speck, like a cell moving around, and it glowed this beautiful golden colour. It kept my attention for a while, as I did not know what to make of it.
Right before I eventually left my body, I was talking to a woman, sitting on the floor with her in my apartment. It felt like my mother, but a 'complete' part of her, the god part (I don't know how else to explain it). The energy was my mother's, but it was much more dense energetically, and it felt like violet and black combination. She was so wise, so powerful, fearless, compassionate, and loving. We were having a conversation. At one point, she showed me this picture of my face, but I had this grey disease growing on my right side. I was scared to look at the image. Looking back, I am confused as to this moment.
I started then to play around with the black in my head. I noticed on a previous experience I was switching between moving in the black and moving with my body while half sleeping. I started to move like a baby in this black, rolling, until finally I was in my room. Somehow, there were about five other people there with me. We were looking at my window and getting ready to leave. I was the first to go. Right before I left the window I was scared it wouldn't work, but I decided as I was running towards it I would take a leap of faith. I jumped out through the curtains!
HOLY! I was flying through the air, and it the world was so clear to see! This is what Gotama meant when he said mind made body. The sky and the trees were so dense with colour. This lasted about ten seconds, when I dropped to the ground to meet the other people, who were walking probably waiting for me to have my moment. I went up to them and asked for their names. A girl said Anna. Just as the others were going to introduce themselves, my concentration/absorbation/mind broke and I was back to the black. I was pulled away. Nuts. A voice came and said something in my right ear, but I cannot remember at this time. I was back at the black and stayed there for a while until I decided to awake.
Anyway, it was a great experience at this point in my life, so I wanted to share it. A question, do you find this otherworld looks different from our world? There entire make-up of the environment was different, including outside. There were no buildings where there are buildings, pine trees where there are oak trees, dark night sky when I awoke at five in the morning to morning light. Even my curtains in my apartment were different, despite the layout being the same.
