Experience Description

I was standing in my friends' doorway, helping them to move a bed. I remember zoning out while my friends decided how to move the bed; I lost feeling to my body, and still stood holding the doorframe. The idea of astral projection was racing through my mind; I had been getting more and more spiritual before the event unfolded, months before. The thoughts were filling my mind to the point where, I unconsciously stopped breathing (didn't notice until after the event).

My friend's ceiling light filled half of his room before I noticed anything strange, then while looking at it, it grew brighter than any light I've ever seen. The light engulfed my mind, and my body fell, hitting the back of my head on a hard wood floor, which caused me to curl around the doorframe and have a seizure. I could feel my body twitching, hear my friends yelling, and see what was going on, but I was looking from above my body.

Then within seconds, I was in a vast field, more beautiful than anything I've ever seen. There were flowers and grass abundant. I was standing on a small incline that dropped slightly until the field was flat. People made of crystalline light were in the field talking and loitering without a care, the field faded into forest about two hundred feet away. In the sky were moons of red, blue, green, orange, and the stars shone brighter and more gorgeous then any I've seen, it was either dusk, or night time but light enough to see perfectly. After seeing all that, the only thing I could say was 'I'm finally home', when an older man, who radiated wisdom and caring, power and finesse, took my right hand in his, and said, 'You have yet to finish your work, my son,' and with a smile I was rushed back into my body.

I stood up quickly, telling my friends 'I'm okay, I'm okay.' I no longer stood up, then I blacked out again and fell, my friend caught me, but I remember reaching my hand through a void, wishing and wanting with my entire soul that man would reach my hand again and pull me back to where I felt I belonged.

Then I woke up, and I stayed awake, but never a day has gone by that I don't remember that place, but my work isn't done he said, and so I stay, looking forward to the day I can go back.
