SIGNALS PRIOR TO DIRECT LIFT-OUT
As you mentally relax and focus, there are certain "signals" that may occur. These signals will alert you that your physical body is near-ready for the separation of your nonphysical. Unless a lift-out occurs very quickly following your controlled physical shutdown, you will likely encounter at least one signal and possibly a combination of signals. I have included a few of the more common signals here.
Vibration Signal
The most widely experienced signal is called "vibration." Its description is concise but the finer points of "vibe" are complex.
A Description Of Vibe: You'll know it when it happens.
The Finer Points of
Vibe:
Vibration is literally what its name
implies. It's almost like a sub-atomic shaking. Vibration feels
slightly electric, although not painfully. It may be localized to
one part of your body or be full-body. Confused yet? Okay, try
this. Ghtrki lkifdfow jjdfiip.
During vibration, your physical may seem to be immobile and unresponsive to your intent to move it. The reason for this is simple. Your conscious control has switched from commanding your physical body to commanding your nonphysical. You can, if you desire, switch your control back to the physical with the force of a decision to do so. The vibration will then subside (you may feel a slight vibration for a few minutes following), and you'll be able to move your physical as always. I found vibration unpleasant as a child until I realized that it wasn't harmful. It's just unsettling until you become accustomed to it.
You may be familiar with the knowledge that all things vibrate at their certain frequency and that there are countless different frequencies possible. This is why a solid object appears solid to the touch. Your physical body vibrates close to the same frequency as the objects that exist in your environment.
The vibration frequency of the nonphysical is faster and allows the nonphysical to permeate physical objects, such as walls, without difficulty. After you're out a few times, you'll get the idea.
Sometimes, the vibration may seem irregular while you are still in your physical but hoping to separate. This is caused by your perception. You're feeling both the nonphysical and physical vibration frequencies as they begin to move out of sync. It can produce a jarring effect. Additionally, as I've mentioned, the vibration may be localized to only one part of your body.
To assist you with the vibration signal that you may encounter at some point, I've a method to share for making the vibe do what you want it to. This method uses the vibe to assist in your lift-out from the physical body. And, thankfully, it does not require any understanding (or opinion) of the concepts at all (jargon-free ala me).
The A.G. Dervish Method:
When you experience full-body vibe, place
your acute attention upon it and picture the vibe as one large
whirlpool that covers you completely. Visualize the whirlpool
becoming less erratic with each spin. See the whirlpool becoming
smooth as it spins faster and faster.
For a localized vibration, place your attention on the vibe area and visualize your whirlpool growing larger, smoother and faster with each rotation until it encompasses your whole body.
This whirlpool visualization places your attention on the nonphysical. This suppresses the often annoying dual-perception of the physical vibration (as I explained above). In addition, the whirlpool method will smooth out the "spikes" of the nonphysical vibration. This results in a smoother lift-out.
Vibration is always present as part of the lift-out process. However, the vibration signal may go unnoticed if the jump from physical to nonphysical happens quickly or is accomplished while the individual is in a semiconscious or unconscious state.
Surge Signal
You'll be overjoyed to hear that this
signal requires only three sentences to explain. As you near the
moment of potential lift-out, you may feel a rush move over your
body. It's similar to having that tingly feeling when an emotion
overtakes you for a split second. This "surge" signal
will often perk up your conscious control level.
Snoring Signal
One of the more blatant signals is to hear
yourself snore. (Perhaps more blatant still, is your mate kicking
you in the ribs to shut up.) This may occur despite the fact that
the majority of your physical hearing is shut down. It's like
wearing earplugs; you can still hear yourself breathe. Although
you may hear yourself snore, you can ignore-the-snore or silence
it by directing your desire upon doing so.
Temperature Drop Signal
When you intend to travel, it's important
to keep your physical body a bit warmer than you might normally
for a night's sleep. This is because, at the verge of lift-out,
you may perceive a drop in your physical body temperature.
Although the temperature drop is minor and may be ignored, it
could disrupt your level of control. This can delay or cancel
your potential lift-out from the physical.
I suggest loose-fitting nightclothes to keep you warm (or turn up the heat). Try not to bury yourself under too many blankets because as you go deeper into controlled relaxation, you may feel smothered by the weight. This extra weight would place more emphasis upon the physical body and may make the focus of your nonphysical travel more difficult to accomplish. (In the glossary, see Variable.)
Seeing Through Your Closed Eyes Signal
You may, as you're lying there deepening
your control, begin to see past your closed eyelids. It may take
a moment to realize this is occurring, and it seems strange the
first few times, but it does signal that you're very close to a
lift-out. You're now "seeing" nonphysically and
slightly above and out of sync with your closed physical eyes.
Pseudo-Sound/Sight Distraction Signal
You may encounter noises and visualizations
as you reach potential lift-out that seem real but are in fact
fakes. This might be a phone ringing or a voice or an alarm
beeping. It might be an image of your mate walking into the room
or your dog jumping on your bed. It can be any type of noise or
image that your brain feels like kicking up.
Now, by this point in your relaxation, your physical hearing and sight has likely shut down. Additionally, your eyes should be closed and the room fairly dark. The chances that an actual outside event is truly occurring at exactly the same time as you are reaching the aw/as line is slim. And you may lessen the chances of any actual interruption by unplugging the phone, turning off your alarm, and putting puppy on the porch. As for your mate, that's up to you.
I suggest that if you have doubts about what you think you're hearing or seeing, do not physically rise to check on the event. Instead, if the event is a noise, focus on hearing that sound though your ears. This will trigger your physical sense of hearing and raise your alertness just enough to counteract any pseudo-sound. If the event is visual, you would do a similar trick that's a smidge harder to pull off. You would focus upon opening your eyelids just a teensy-weensy bit. Again, this will trigger a jump in your alertness and provide a brief view of your surroundings for further verification.
Once you've satisfied your curiosity, drop your level back to where you were and continue. The pseudo-sound/sight may return but can be ignored or silenced with a command from you. Pseudo-sound/sight does not persist after you've separated a small distance from the physical.
More and More Memory O'
Me...
I've had many nonphysical visits to
swimming pools . It's an odd sensation to be out and underwater.
Traveling through water does not feel like traveling through air
or a vacuum. Each is a completely different sensation.
I'm thirteen. It's nighttime, and the pool is closed, yet here I am. I'm gliding through the water. I'm in the deep end near the diving board where we're told not to swim. I experience an awareness of my physical upon the bed. I'm concerned for my breathing. I'm under the water, looking up through it to the night sky.
