Hell

[ThisUserNameSucks]

Sorry if you are not Catholic and if this topic offends you I woke up one day and all of a sudden i got a ringing in my ears, well, actually, i always have ringing in my ears, but it's so low-tone I hardly ever hear it, so it got louder. Anyways, I started hearing terrible sounding screams, screams of pain and fear. I'm not sure but I think I experienced the sounds of hell

[Shark Rider]

Dude, I'm freaked out! I'm serious... I try imagining me hearing this sound of hell that I once had in a nightmare. I think I wouldn't be able to stand it and I'll kill myself. Anyway, are you sure that sound isn't that little "beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep" noise people usually hear when they listen to loud music. I know somebody who started with that "beeeeep" in the head. He was hearing it all the time and at the end it made him crazy. Really, he was saying he was hearing voices and all weird things. I don't know what happened to him... But maybe you can hear screams of spirits. Some people are very sensitive to spirits. Have you changed your home. Because sometimes when you change the place of living, in the new house there may be more spiritual activities. And some people are sensitive to those.

Um...yeah, ok then buddy. Oh, I'm sorry, I thought this was the forum where people believe in this kind stuff, I guess I was wrong.

[deathxel]

well LucidFlanders is right. How can you experience hell if your Catholic you should know that you dont go to hell till your dead? I mean at this forum we believe in controling dreams and maybe astral traveling n stuff... but, whether i believe you or not, i can understand why LucidFlanders has doubts about what you said. Back to topic, damn that must have been creepy

[C911]

I dont mean to sound blunt... but it just seems like the sounds you hear from when you are in SP. I am at a loss of what the word is, but everyone experiences sounds they dont know when they are in SP. Even if you where not in SP, you could still be hearing the after effects of the sounds. Dont be allarmed, its most likely not the sounds of hell.

It could be the lost souls in hell, but i'm very sure that it is the souls in purgatory. I believe they come looking for our prayers to help release them from purgatory. Maybe you should pray for them and they will leave you alone. Seriously, everything will be fine, they can't harm you. I read a book about the souls in purgatory, and it said if we pray for the souls in purgatory, they will pray for us in return, for our own personal problems...etc. If you still hear these screaming noises, more than often, i would suggest you bless the room you heard them in with holy water. sorry if this didn't make any sense.

Are you sure you truly awakened? I've experienced exactly what you are describing as a part of sleep paralysis. What I suggest happened to you was that you awoke briefly, not long enough to leave SP and then entered a false awakening, that is, really a lucid dream state in which you are dreaming you are in your room and bed. It can be quite scary if you don't know what it going on, or really really interesting if you do!! It is my theory as well as many others that demonic visitations, alien experiments, and all of this type of thing is really the same form of false awakening you experienced.

I have to agree with the masses here in that I believe that what you experienced was a side effect of sleep paralysis or related phenomena, not the screams of actual souls in hell or purgatory. However, I know this kind of experience can be quite unsettling, whether inside a dream or just after waking. I dreamed of the upper levels of hell once, as described in The Inferno; specifically, I believe it was an allusion to the level where those who sinned in lust ended up, as there was a vortex of winds or dark, evil waters, and disfigured souls were tossed about in it. Their screams and lamentations made me jolt awake, and I had tears in my eyes.

Humanism smiles upon this topic. Seeker does not. Off topic post by Humanism.

.. a false awakening, that is, really a lucid dream state.. Ummm.. is that a slip of the keyboard, Seeker? Surely a false awakening is non-lucid, otherwise it wouldn't be a false awakening would it? Yes, of course, you can become lucid after an FA, but the FA itself, by nature of its nomenclature, has to be a non-lucid state where you don't realise that you're still dreaming. Sorry if this veers off-topic.

[Seeker]

you got me there. False awakening is not a lucid state, but with practice leads to a lucid state.

[KitsumiChan]

Eeek...That's horrible. >_< I suggest saying 50 "Our Fathers"...That usually helps me get over anything that happens. >< And for the ringing...That's FUCKING scary. I have experienced that before.

[Shark Rider]

I want to experience that... I don't know why but it gives me some kind of cold waves when i think about it. Do you hear those all the time?

We call this either sleep paralysis, an active imagination, or merely wishful thinking. Or a blatent lie. Why would he lie about this? I mean, sure the interpretation could be defined as odd (sounds of hell, uh huh) but I don't doubt he heard something. Anyway, while playing xbox360 alone in my friend's flat, I kept hearing whispers and what sounded like little girls screaming. I thought I was going crazy. After some searching, I realised it was coming from the surround sound speakers hidden behind his couch I've read of people who drilled downwards into the surface of the earth, and after going a while lowered a microphone into the hole to listen for whatever it was they were researching (earthquakes, plate tectonics, trolls, I dunno) and they heard screaming and what sounded like hell to them. Maybe you heard some of that. I would double check those speakers though.

Maybe you heard some of that. That sounds eerily familiar to a nightmare I had a few years ago: I arrived at a research site where they had lowered a microphone into an ancient well, and they had just finished recording. I took a look at the recordings, seeing the sound-graphics as one might see them on a computer monitor in a recording program. There were two, actually: the first was a single girl screaming, though the scream sounded insincere, like a mock-scream; however, the second was an overwhelming multitude of terror-stricken voices so alarming that it left me awake in unease for the rest of the night.

most NDEs are heavenly or peaceful but a tiny percentage experience something very hellish there are two variants of the hellish experience : 1. the person is not in hell, but rather witnessing hell to some degree. there are horrific sounds of people being tormented. and there is a foul odor - of sulfur, rotting flesh, vomit, feces - etc. 2. the person is experiencing hell. they experience both physical pain as demons tear their limbs apart over and over again, and such incredible pain it induces bodily movements - such as throwing up. however. the real pain was emotional. the demons expose everything in life they feel guilty of. not a single detail was left out. the experiencers often say the demons knew everything about them, every mistake they have ever made *or what they perceive to be a mistake*. the physical torment was equal to the amount of self-hatred they had for themselves there is something being presented in NDEs not presented in christianity. it is generally present in both scenarios. there is a hope for all those experience hell. at any moment, if they so desire, they need only look up at the light and ask to leave hell. in scenario 1, the light is the very same light that normal NDErs experience. in this case, those experiencing scenario 2 some how 'fell' from the light instead of continuing through the tunnel of light that is normally experienced in an NDE in scenario 2, many of those experiencing hell claim they also experienced heaven immediately after as soon as they reached out for the light. and while in heaven, no one treated them as disgusting, or judged them. it was as if, they were the very same demons tormenting themselves, and no other I just thought id say is, if you do believe in hell. NDEs present us something different concerning hell. those experiencing hell, will stop experiencing hell as soon as they have had enough of it. it was their desire alone to hate themselves, and it is their desire alone to accept self-love. no one can do this for anyone. there are people who feel pity for those in hell, and try to reach out to them. what they end up is with nightmarish and hellish experiences themselves, sometimes making claims of poltergeists or demonic activity in their house. but no amount of prayer they do for those in hell will save them. those in hell need to save themselves by stop hating themselves. so keep your thoughts away from hell, or you just might end up with a fear of demonic activity around your being. instead, understand, nothing can harm you in the astral. nothing can harm you in dreams. if in dreaming, if in astral, if in spirit and your experience is hellish - focus your thoughts on love and light. the dream or experience will change to the thoughts you are holding - just like it changed for those in the NDE SPs can be freakish. but they don't always have to be. I once had a very peaceful SP. There was a bright sun flooding light into my room. Birds were singing. And the ocean was making peaceful wave sounds outside my room. I couldn't move, but I didn't care to move. When I did wake up, it was 4am. there was no sun, there were no birds and certainly there was no peaceful ocean outside my room. so remember your thoughts will affect your experience in the dreaming, in the astral. so keep them fearless and positive.

I'd bet the farm it was an auditory hallucination, and that you're going to be fine.

[Nazzul]

I'd bet the farm it was an auditory hallucination, and that you're going to be fine. Yeah I have had auditory hallucnations before right before going to sleep but not right when I have woken up. Alot of the time when I hear these things it follows an OBE/WILD

Religeon", well, kind of. In my opinion you were probably hearing things, naturally people do when they're into inducing Lucid Dreams, were you trying to do a WILD for a lucid dream? If you're not into Lucid Dreaming at all, then I don't really know what it was. But not to sound silly or anything but I've had visions on what I thought was Hell in the past, but that was because I was in a combination of bad depression (or just really down) and listening to creepy but cool music. It was: The Terror Of Death - DJ Sharpnel If you think bullshit of what I just typed, then don't worry, my final opinion. I think your spider sense was tingling!

People say "oh hell does not exist" although that's not why i don't believe it. People have NDE of hell, i don't believe in hell so how can i believe NDE's are real if they expierience something i don't believe in? well they are real, just like dreams are real, just like real real, not dreamy real. Although i don't really get this 1 thing. They say we all have NDE's because of the stories we get told of what is supposed to happen just before you die and they are all similar to the bone, yet we know when we are about to sleep but it's always different. Yet people say dreams and not halucinations, some say they are, yet like i said dreams are always different unlike an NDE which is always similar, not always different, always random like a dream. I don't buy into the whole "it's 1 last dream", but there is something happening.
