    Back to Back OBE’s with my Daughter - Mar 2, 2015

    Went to bed at 8:45 Pm, and woke at 2:30 Am (WBTB). Stayed up for only for 5 minutes, which is not usual for me when doing Wake Back To Bed (WBTB), because I usually stay up for at least 45 minutes, but I was too tired. I decided to meditate while lying in bed on my back. I started to feel uncomfortable after about 15 mins, so I rolled onto my right side for another 15 mins, and then onto to my left side. Soon after I found myself in the altered state where your mind is awake and your body is asleep (even my hearing had stopped). The hypnagogic imagery was crystal clear. I saw a poster with lots of writing on it, but it disappeared before I could read it. People were gathering around me and talking.

    The vibrations started, and I could hear electrostatic popping and sizzling. This was my queue to leap to my feet out of bed, leaving my body behind. I was expecting to end up in my bedroom, but instead I was in my childhood bedroom at my parent’s house. I immediately started to count, because this helps to stabilize the experience, and helps to keep my mind focussed. Off I went to try and find my daughter.

    I ran down the stairs to the first floor, and into the living room. There was a transparent man standing there, and I ran right through him towards an older woman who was standing at the back door. I didn’t recognize the woman, so I continued past her to the back door. She then spoke in my dad’s voice and said, “No, don’t go out there, stay inside.” I turned around to face the woman, and I replied, “Okay, where’s my daughter?” She pointed towards a soccer ball size object that was morphing about 3 feet off the floor near the basement door, and she said in my dad’s voice, “Right over there!” It was very strange that this woman had my dad’s voice, so I asked her, “Who are you?”, and she replied, “I’m your dad.” I quickly stuttered, “But dad, you look like a woman?”, and dad said, “Yah, I know, but that’s just how it is.” By this point my daughter was almost materialized, and I got too excited, and instantly I was back in bed, consciously awake, with my body asleep.

    Once again, the vibrations and the electrostatic popping and sizzling started, so I leapt from my bed to my feet. My bedroom looked so real, and felt so real, that I momentarily thought I had physically jumped out of my bed, but then I could see two transparent people standing in my room (definitely dreamin’), so I walked right through them and out my bedroom door. I then realized I was totally naked! Yikes! This is odd, because usually I have at least my gotchies on. I also still had my CPAP mask on, so I ripped it off my face. Top of my list was to find a blanket to wrap around me, so I went looking for one in my daughter’s room. I flicked the light switch on, but it didn’t work (of course), then I tried her lamp, same thing. The room magically became softly lit, and that’s when I noticed something was different with my daughter’s calendar. I sat on her bed to take a closer look.

    At the end of each day my daughter would always draw a line diagonally through each calendar day, to mark its completion. She did this right up until she passed in 2013. In this OBE, the calendar looked different, because it was covered in brilliant green grass and red flowers. The diagonal line through each date was no longer present, but rather there were pictorials and hieroglyphics, right up until her passing date. I was totally enthralled with the amount of effort and detail that went into each day of the calendar. Very unexpectedly, I heard my daughter giggling beside me. She was lying under the covers in her bed. “Dad, every time I see you, you look older! It’s seems so strange.” She sat up in bed, leaned over, and gave me a huge hug. I replied to her, “Yeah, I’m getting older and older. Every day when I wake, I’m one day closer to being with you again.” She laughed and said, “Yeah, I know.” Then I said, “You still look the same, young and beautiful!”

    Boom, back in bed again, consciously awake, with my body asleep. The vibrations started once again, and I tried to do a third exit, but no luck. I woke myself up and immediately voice recorded the amazing and memorable experience

      : ) It's good that you have been able to see your daughter a lot in your dreams. Also, did your clothes reappear after you noticed something different with the calendar? xD

      I'm not sure if they did or not. LOL Maybe that's why she was giggling.

      Thanks again for sharing these very personal dreams. They are powerful reading and a definite inspiration to continue through the difficulties of dream practice. These dreams really speak to me the wonder and beauty of dreaming so much more than cartoon adventures, etc..

      Also, I will try to implement the counting tech. sounds like an easy calming/stabilization method. I use hand rubbing and it works pretty well, but I am noob so I think I just have to persevere through many short LDs until I build up experience. I have found sharply clapping my hands adds a lot of clarity and vividness to LDs.

      Hi KonchogTashi, Thanks for the reading my dream journal and for the compliment! Since my daughter started appearing in my dreams I've decided to avoid all sexual, violent, and greed/possessive behaviors, and focus on more suitable and friendly dreams. It's actually worked out well for both lucid and non-lucid dreams, but it's been a real challenge, believe me.

      Counting really works well. I'll have to try sharply clapping, never tried that before!

      I similarly try to keep my dreams relatively "PG", but I have pretty low awareness in most of my LDs at this point. I seem to have 1 of two reactions to lucidity in most dreams: 1 spontaneously fly into the sky and sing prayers, OR beat up some poor DC, or accost some female DC. I am happy that I caught my strong instinct to violence as it was occurring last time it came up in a LD and rather than hitting the DC told him that I loved him. I think these "automatic" or instinctual reactions to lucidity are just my low awareness and sleep impaired mind playing out. I'm sure l be more conscious & in control with more experience.

      Yes, totally agree KonchogTashi! It's like primordial instincts kick in while in a low awareness lucid state, and as awareness improves, you ask yourself, "What the heck did I just do, and why did I do that?" Like last night I grabbed a fish (bass) out of the water, and put it in a vice to squish it, then I became more aware, and I quickly stopped what I was doing before I hurt the little bugger. If I'm regular dreaming, I'm harmless, if I'm in high lucidity, I'm harmless, but there's this little period in between that I'm struggling with.
