Thread: WILD Tut - testimonial

Well, I gotta hand it to Seeker on his WILD tutorial.

While I didn't even completely finish reading the whole tutorial, there was one part in particular that directly helped me with this morning's WILD I experienced.

I set my iPod alard to go off around 4:15am (a time which I've noticed I usually wake up from a dream or to go to bathroom anyway). The iPod alarm is perfect in that it beeps just long enough to wake you up, then it stops (no need to move to turn it off!)

Anyway....

After I was awakened by the alarm, I remembered that I had set it so I could try to WILD, which I did. I specifically rememer the phrase from the tutorial

Imagine yourself floating on a raft out in a calm ocean. Can you feel the waves rocking you gently? Can you smell the salt air and feel the sun warming your body? Can you hear the gulls in the distance and feel the light breeze blowing through your hair?

So, I closed my eyes and imagined the sound of waves, gulls, etc. I started to feel like I was floating in water. I "opened my eyes" and started floating backwards, I realized that the darkness was not due to my eyes being closed - but to the blackness of the body of a Killer Whale which my head was leaning on!!

I pulled back even further, and there I was, floating in a huge emerald green tropical bay. There where whales and dolphins all over. Ahead of me there was one rock (looked like a lava formed rock. Very pourus and hard edged). I swam towards it and latched on. Suddenly, there were dolphins all over the place, swimming up and rubbing against me. I touched them as they swam by and they felt so real! At one point, I felt the teeth of one running down my right arm, I wasn't worried because it seemed that he just wanted to see what I felt like. When I turned my head up and looked out over the water, there where even more dolphins and whales than before - like thousands!!. All the senses felt as real as they could get. The texture of the rock, the dolphins bodies, the water splashing. Even the weird feeling of my private parts swaying in the water (I was naked)!

There's more to the dream, but you all get the idea. I was lucid for most of it, I'm sure. However, I do believe at some point I may have just slipped out of lucidity - I was so caught up in the beauty around me.

Well, next I hope to use this technique but imagine some other scenario to really see if this technique is the true cause of my WILD. So far so good....
