I have several times woken from sleep to have encounters with entities somehow inhabiting my body.

I think the Egyptians spoke of the body having multiple souls. The hard soul, Ka (?) is one that stays with the body. Others travel.

I call these entities "hard souls" or "boney souls".

Typically the encounter starts with me being pushed down, paralyzed immoble in bed. At the next stage, becoming aware of this, I begin to struggle, and begin pulling hard rubbery knots, very springy and resilient, out from my body .... usually my arms. I can then manage to get the entity entirely out of my body.

At first, this really freaked me out. Altough I did land a few wild panicked punches in the struggle, realizing that I could hurt them, I later became more careful.

The most intense time was last year. I had the entity fully out of my body after an intense struggle. He was very vividly present, although I was still half asleep.

When it was just fully out of my body, extended from my arms like a mirror image of me, I asked it, telepathically, "Who are you?"

He replied, in a deep male voice, gentle, "We are the essence of information."

"Great", I said. "How's your ethics?"

Wow.
