    The Path of Iapetos

    I have just read Robert Monroe's book "Journeys Out of the body". I know very spiritual... But even though I know, well not know but have knowledge about what happens in the brain when we sleep, that it's just chemicals... I have had experiences that tells me that there is something more significant about dreams. My friends have had experiences that provided them information beyond their previous knowledge. And they were all skeptics like me before. My only experience, well I have many but the only experience that I just can't explain with my western logic i my name. The nickname I chosed to have on Dreamviews. IAPETOS

    I met a DC or with an astral projection term "entity" that told me that he was Iapetos and he could give me answers.
    I had never heard that name before but I was curious and googled that name and well I got quite surprised of who I had met.

    So where am I now? Well I have just read Monroe's and Carlos Castaneda's books and now I am using those exercises to induce new adventures. Monroe's technique while I go to sleep and Castaneda's while I am in the dream.
    I will share my experiences here. Enjoy!

      I went to bed 23:00 after have watched Master-Chef and I found a new way to arrange my pillows to make it more comfortable to remain still in a sitting position. Then I started thinking about anything just to get rid of the thoughts of the day, then I tried a law-of-attraction exercise called Grateful Thinking. Which basically is thinking about everything that I am grateful of from small things like "I am glad that I can breathe" to bigger things like "I am happy that my parents care for me".
      And while doing this you forget all about practice and are happy of your life. Just something that can be fun to do and if law-of-attraction works I will see the results soon. I was playing League of Legends on the day and when my teammate stole all my kills that gives me XP I would usually rage, but instead I thought loud in my head "It was unfortunate but I am happy that we at least got the kill and I don't have to worry my time will come." Later on in that game I got a triple-kill and I played the best game in my life. Small thing but maybe there is something to positive thinking.

      My body suddenly reacted on auto-pilot and just gave up and switched sleeping posture... So I need to practice my patience even though that it was quite hard to control it this time. I was now laying on my side and I had my head turned to the wall. I then react to something weird.[COLOR="navy"] It feels like I see a room but everything is shaded, it wasn't a daydream but I actually saw this behind my eyelids. If I close my eyes right now I don't get the same feeling. The best way I can think of describing it. Is that if you imagine standing in your bedroom and that it's almost completely dark, you can still "sense" where everything is, but since it's not completely dark you can still see outlines of the objects.

      It was vivid enough for me to not call it a dream because it didn't felt like a hallucination kind of thing.
      I don't know how to describe it and I find it hard to believe myself. Although I think there really was something special to it.
      So if this happens again I will definitely try to enter it more, because when this happened I was more in shock than excited.

      I eventually fell asleep.

      [COLOR="royalblue"]I had a dream where I couldn't find a hotel I lived at. So I took my bags and went to the public toilets and for some weird reason I tried to fall asleep there. I remember seeing a dog and a cat in the room and that they were fighting.

      When the dream changed I was standing on a cloud and it was kind of uhum crowded. I remember seeing one really hot woman and then some man talking to her and almost immediately kissing her.

      Then I were sharing a bed with some girl. I explained DEILD to her and demonstrated the sensations by shaking myself and then told her that it doesn't look like that but it feels like that. I then hear screaming and I see that there were other people in the room they were pointing to a guy in a hockey mask and he had bat. I walked towards him and tried to be a hero. Instead I got a knife in my throat. I put my hand on my throat to hide the wound and then I see Lana from Smallville and she says "How could you possibly survive that? "Well I am still bleeding thanks for caring..." I answered :roll:
      I then see the sunlight and I take my hand away and I feel the wound getting healed. I walk inside some house and I see Clark Kent from the same series, I remember we talked about Lana. I told him that he should make a move on her because she likes him and he says "What about my secret?" and I answer "Well you got to risk it to get the biscuit".
      Very deep answer I know :cheeky: I then look out through the window and I see a beach and some weird whirlwinds under the water. "Look water tornadoes!" I say. I then hear the screams again and realize that I had forgot the bat man huhu (the man with the bat). I walk inside the house the others are hiding in and they said they were preparing a trap for him. I remember the trap failed and the hit some innocent girl instead. Then I woke up. [/COLOR]

      I woke up after each dream I had this night as well and I have started to notice a pattern. If I go to bed between 22:00 and 23:00 I always wake up 01:15 perhaps I can calculate my REM cycle with this if that is useful for something right now.
