Out of Body Experiences173Please respect copyright.PENANAtkfZ5J7xwJ
There I was, this young enthusiast engulfed in the ideology of astral projection.
I was simply trying to find out if it was or wasn't true. So I tried it out.
At first, it wasn't easy. Because I had to learn to actually detach my spirit from my body with a few notes from the internet.173Please respect copyright.PENANAaPbbqcHLot
The first time it happened, I might have scared myself with sleep paralysis, and it kind of made me hesitant.
The second time it happened, my spirit got out of my body, I looked back, and I saw my body sleeping.
I might have stolen a chuckle or two because I couldn't believe it.
So I got to my door, opened it, and went to the bathroom. I don't even know why I thought that I had to relieve myself.
I got there and saw the light on. On top of that, it sounded like someone was already using the bathroom, so I went back to my body and went back to actually sleeping.
The third time it happened, I was too deep in my sleep, meaning I had slept inside my dream.
So when I did it, I was actually doing the astral projection inside inside my dream.
I got bummed that it had happened that way, so I went back to sleep, inside inside my dream, and went for the normal dreaming.
The fourth time it happened, my spirit might have ended up being out somewhere it wasn't supposed to be because it felt like nature was after me.
I actually felt the stormy wind trying to snatch my spirit away. So I held on to the doorway of the house and wouldn't let go, because I knew that if I had let go, I would have become a goner.
The other time my spirit was out of my body, there were tornadoes out to get me. Like I said, it was like nature was on a fret.
And when it happened, it wasn't just one tornado that was out to get me; there were more than four tornadoes.
So yeah, I was swept off my feet. There I was in the air, drifting towards them.
I definitely didn't want the tornadoes to snatch me away, so I imagined a strong rope, holding it and never letting go, until the tornadoes gave up.
And the rope manifested from nothing into something. And I held onto the rope like my life depended on it. Because it did.
The tornadoes did end up giving up on pulling me in, and I survived that ordeal.
The other time I was successful, my spirit was able to float just above my body.
So, me being me., I wanted to see if my spirit could phase through my bedroom walls, so..
I floated towards my wall near the window. The first try didn't work because I literally bounced off my wall.
I tried for the second time to phase through, and it worked. My spirit was outside—outside the house.
It was nighttime exactly as it was supposed to be in the physical realm, that's how I knew that the astral projection had worked.
Before I could explore more outside, my spirit started descending down..
Down below the ground, people walk. Down into the belly of the earth. I kept on passing through layers and layers of earth.
Up to the point where I got to a dark, mountainous place. It was pitch black, and the ground had sulfuric rivers of red lava and magma.
I had stopped descending and was floating in mid-air, so I had a bird's-eye view of what was going on down below and above.
The saddest thing I saw there was the spirits of people that were raining from the sky as far and wide as the eyes could see.
The spirits were falling into this dark, desolate place. It was like rain, minus the water, because it was people's spirits falling into Sheol.
After a short while, my spirit started to ascend up..
My spirit went right through the ground, and I was back on the surface.
I was able to see the night sky again. And I kept on ascending.
As I was above the tree level, two angels started flying behind me—in a manner of accompaniment.
I saw them without actually having to turn around and look at their faces to know that they were there. I just knew they were there.
I got close to what looked like the sky and passed it, and I saw a sky that had clouds, and it looked like it was semi-daylight.
I got to the sky of the stars and went past right through it. And as we went past it, the clothes we were wearing were filled with the radiance of the place we were entering.
We then got to a place that looked like heaven. Yes, I'm saying heaven because most of the spirits that were there were wearing white robes, and the atmosphere there was as clear and clean as heaven can be and beyond.
Even most of the angels were wearing white clothes. It's not like it was actually white, but white is easier to point out because it's similar to the physical realm's colour white.
Since I was checking out the apparel of others, I actually sorted out to find out what my spirit too was clothed in.
I saw that I was wearing a radiant white robe. It was really beautiful.
The two angels that accompanied me to heaven, as soon as we got there, blended in with the crowd, and I kind of lost them in the crowd.
I keep saying crowd because people were gathered around, like the way city folk would be gathered waiting for a city announcement from the mayor or something.
So, there I was in the crowd, wondering what all the anticipation of everyone was.
I then looked for the center of the crowd because I wanted to see to whom people were drawing their attention.173Please respect copyright.PENANAGgymDWdsLU
To my not-so-surprising surprise, it was what seemed like the King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Himself in the flesh, drawing everyone's attention. I too then eagerly paid attention to what was about to happen.
He was wearing a white robe and what looked like a red sash, and He was the only one I could see who was wearing a golden crown, and He was standing near His throne seat.
When I noticed all this, my attention even became more focused, just like everyone else, because even the low whispers of the crowd came to a standstill,. as everyone wanted to hear what He was about to say.
He then said something, and I don't even know where all that boldness came from, because I squeezed myself through the crowd and went and knelt before Him.173Please respect copyright.PENANA4ONJV3DUhZ
He then laid the mantle like cloth on my back, and when I stood up, the mantle changed into a vibrant, shiny golden armour. It was really breathtaking.173Please respect copyright.PENANAm3M26n5GRw
It was like I was literally clothed in the full armour of God—the whole nine yards of Ephesians 6 in reality—and it was comforting.
And just like that, in the blink of an eye, my spirit was returned to my body.173Please respect copyright.PENANAaTeoPlxx3K
And then I woke up.173Please respect copyright.PENANAoNCl2OBiTt
