Sameera OBE

Experience Description

On one of the winter nights during December 2012. I don't remember the exact date. I was low on hemoglobin and having heavy periods. I was asleep and suddenly woke up around 2am from deep sleep. At that time my mom was sleeping next to me. I felt my body start feeling cold and getting heavier as if it were made of granite or marble stone. I called out to my mother, but no voice came out of my mouth. Then my hands started feeling so heavy I couldn't move them. After some time, even my head and face started getting heavier, with my skin feeling a harsh coldness.

Suddenly, I felt as if a lightning struck through my spine and within seconds I was out of my body.

Floating

The thing is, I could see my body but I was floating near the ceiling of our room. I could hear, see, and even communicate. As I looked across the room, a humanoid figure appeared. The figure was huge, like 7-8 feet tall. This figure started communicating with me in a tone was not scary. It was authoritative, as if someone was giving me instructions on my life path. The figure told me intuitively or telepathically that I was here to work for animals, nature, tribals and women. It also mentioned that it's not my time yet to return, as I have a lot of work to do for these segments of society. Once I complete my work towards these sections of society, then I will be free to return.

I don't know for how long this conversation lasted, but it felt very quick. I was floating there for some time, seeing my body below, not scared but feeling lightweight. I felt something like a lightning current hit me and then I was back in my body.

After a few minutes, I started feeling okay. No chills. I could speak, but at the same time I felt so light and went back to peaceful sleep. But before that, I checked the time and it was around 4 am. At that time I was young and on a very different career path that had nothing to do with spirituality or nature.

After 5 months (i.e., May 2013), I was about to appear for my exams but due to sudden health issues, I ended up hospitalized. Ultimately, this whole episode made me change my career choices. After being in this field of nature and animal communication, I understood the messages I received that night. That's the reason, even after so many years, I still remember this incident. It feels like it happened yesterday.
