My Spiritual Awakening Chapter 4
If this is your first time reading about my Spiritual Awakening, please start from Chapter 1 by clicking here.
As a child, I was always testing the boundaries and adventuring, and now years later after quitting my day job and stumbling upon Astral projection – that child-like wonder and fearlessness that lay deep in my heart was finally set free once more. After my successful adventures, I felt more alive, more optimistic and more capable than ever before. I felt a sense of freedom that can only come with self-empowerment. I knew that I was still only at the precipice of my journey – that there was so much more to uncover.
I was completely shocked that something so significant had been kept out of the public domain. I thought surely Projection is not something new? There must be specialists in this field that a well aware of its implications and a good reason why it has been kept totally hidden from the masses. In any case, my determination drove me forward. Now that I had risen the bar on my success rate of projection, I decided to take things up a notch.
I wanted to spend more time with my daughter, and I figured that projection might be the perfect way to do it outside of the few hours her mother permitted me to see her at the weekend. This longing to be more present in my child’s life drove me to find new levels of mastery. I recalled using self-hypnosis in my early 20s to build unshakeable self-confidence. So, I decided that I would create my own hypnosis script that I could use prior to bed, in the hopes that I could enter into a conscious projected state the whole night – I would then use this time wisely.
I created the script over a period of a few hours, this includes recording it, so I could play it as I settled into bed for sleep. It was Friday evening, I was excited to go to bed for two reasons – 1 I was going to see my daughter on Saturday morning (she was 4 years old at the time), 2 to try out my projection hypnosis script for the first time!
I settled in to bed earlier than usual for a Friday night, headphones in – I practised slow breathing as I drifted off into sleep… I awoke Saturday morning a bit disheartened as nothing out of the ordinary had happened with my hypnosis script. I didn’t give it too much thought though as I was still really excited to see my daughter. I got myself ready and drove to pick her up. We went to the park, had lunch at a restaurant, then back to my apartment. The day was filled with smiles, laughs and lots of playtime. I made dinner for my daughter and fed her while she watched cartoons on TV. Her mother picked her up just after 6pm. I now had the evening to myself and decided to take a shower and have an early night so I could try my script again.
To my disappointment, I woke up Sunday morning to the rising sun – again nothing had happened, but I felt content that I had such a wonderful Saturday with my daughter. Then I got the biggest shock when my alarm went off suddenly – I nearly leaped straight out of bed and through the ceiling! Why on earth was my alarm going off?! I never set an alarm on Sunday I thought! I grabbed my phone to turn it off and got a second and even bigger shock! My phone was reflecting that it was NOT Sunday but actually Saturday morning!!! The hypnosis script had worked flawlessly!!!! I yelped with glee as I jumped around the room! I could not believe that moments after I fell asleep Friday night, I must have projected and essentially lived the day through what I believed was Saturday.
I shared my script and my news with the main social media group that was and still is, run by Caz whom I mentioned in Chapter 1 (the DJ). I learnt that this was called a false awakening – this is a state when one projects but believes they have woken up physically, and so they carry out part or all of their automated daily routine. Usually this might be getting up to brush your teeth and then waking up to the sound of your alarm or another disturbance only to realise you had been ‘dreaming’. The awareness in a false awakening closely matches that of waking life – or rather you manifest the awareness of what you expect to feel when you wake up – so as a result you cannot tell the difference between projection and waking life!
Although in my case, and strangely – I hadn’t seen my physical body laying in the bed. I was told that because I encompassed a lower level of awareness, and thoroughly believed that I was already operating my physical body and in what I expected to see – the true nature of my environment was hidden from my awareness. This made me wonder how much is hidden in plain sight in our everyday lives due to limited awareness brought on by our own conditioning. Something that would be proven even more so, when I projected to visit my daughter while she was on holiday abroad with her mother…
I did pick up my daughter that morning, we did have an awesome day together – and she did partially recall the time we spent during my false awakening – as when I took her to the park she said “You took me to this park in my dream daddy!”. It is interesting to note that during my false awakening my daughter’s awareness was as it always is. Perhaps children are less affected, as they have yet to be fully indoctrinated into limiting beliefs.
Unfortunately, the hypnosis script never worked for me the same way again. But it did help many others achieve projection for the first time – some of whom had been trying for years without success – this filled me with joy as there is no greater purpose than to be of service to others.
I will share one more story of projection with my daughter that I think you may like:
I projected in the mid-afternoon, using an energy meditative technique. My intention was to visit my daughter and just see if she was enjoying herself on holiday – I had never been allowed to take her on holiday abroad due her mother believing she was too young to be away from her (I don’t blame her). I teleported directly from my living to my daughter’s location. They were on the beach and the weather was absolutely perfect for it. I was floating about 30 feet in the sky when I spotted my daughter, it was so lovely to see her smiling and playing in the soft sand. Until she spotted me and began pointing and waving. At this point my daughter could speak quite well, so I quickly teleported back to body in hopes that she wouldn’t say anything to her mother. A week later when they returned from holiday and I picked my daughter up – on the drive back to my apartment she said “I saw you daddy! You were spying on us while we were on holiday! I’m going to tell my mumma that you’re a spy!”. I asked her where she saw me and she said “Standing in the sky!” She really did see me! I needed to rethink my projection strategy as I didn’t want to upset or confuse my sweet little girl! I decided to put it on hold, but in the future, I would take on the guise of an imaginary friend and continue to spend time with my daughter.
As the days and weeks passed, I continued my efforts into exploring the world beyond my physical body. By day I built up my portfolio of clients for my now thriving IT business, and by night I meditated with focused intention of remaining conscious while my body slept. I learnt many things while flying around my neighbourhood – dogs, cats, crows and pigeons were all able to see non-physical beings.
I became curious about my family history, more specifically – my grandfather on my mother’s side – he had passed over when I was just a baby. I decided that I would go back to the time when he was alive and observe him. Arriving in their family home in 1969 took an instant. I walked into the lounge as I could hear the voices, it was surreal to look at the faces of my aunts, uncles and my mother as children. I got a sense of de ja vu as when I looked at my mother, she looked directly at me just as my daughter had seen me on the beach. My mother turned to her older sister and said “Who’s that uncle standing there”, her sister – my aunt was unable to perceive me. Interestingly my mother’s younger twin siblings could not see me either despite the fact they were around 2 years old.
I was thoroughly stunned by this revelation; I had assumed travelling to the past would be the same as watching a movie – I assumed the past was set in stone and had already happened. As it turns out, the past is just as alive as the present – a living memory in the infinitum of time. While time exists to separate one moment from the next – those moments never cease to exist. We perceive time as linear, when in actual fact it is circular, the past – present and future are all unfolding simultaneously.
As it turns out, my mother recalled that day and remembered asking her sister who I was and that no one could see me but her. She hadn’t of course realised it was her future son. The topic came up in conversation when my family were discussing super-natural events that they had witnessed throughout their lives. Of course, at this time they had no idea of my extracurricular activities beyond the body. The shock of my mother being able to see me, soon sent me back to body and I never saw my grandfather. Returning to the same time was never straightforward, the many times I tried to go back I would end up in random times and places.
My next adventure led me to explore the future, in order to test my theory of the unfoldment of time. As with my travels into the past, my projections into the future landed me in random times and places – in one particular instance – I assumed it was a failure initially, I ended up in the grand hallway of some unknown house, I was about to return to body when I heard a woman call my name from one of the rooms downstairs. Before I could react, I heard a familiar voice answer the call from upstairs – it was my voice. I saw myself walk down the stairs – it was my future self! I immediately returned to body as I was not interested in knowing my own future at that point in my journey. Knowing what was to come would certainly take away from the surprises of life I thought.
7 years later, I found myself living in that very house, walking down the stairs to the call of the voice – which came from the kitchen from my current partner and soul mate. What was even more astonishing was as I walked down the stairs – I recalled a dream I had when I was 12 – a dream I had long forgotten. In that dream I lived in this very house and was walking down the stairs! I remember waking from this dream as a child and being completely bewildered to find myself in my ‘child’ body and not as the adult I had so vividly dreamt of. I was overcome with a divine feeling as I took each step, being distinctly aware that my child-self had dreamed this, while my past adult-self had projected and my ‘present’ self all shared that brief moment together. 3 points of time converging into a single unique moment that I would never forget. I was able to penetrate into the distant future and saw the advancement of the human race through the ages. Advances in technology, spirituality, democracy and much more. This filled me with hope for the future, knowing that no matter what troubles manifest – mankind has the will and ingenuity to rise above them.
It is important to note that the future (just as the past) is not static, but constantly in motion and so changeable if you so will it. “The best way to predict the future is to create it” Abraham Lincoln.
Please stay tuned for Chapter 5, where I speak about the projection “police” and how I was intercepted when I penetrated into the dreams of a former government official and many more exciting discoveries on my path to enlightenment.
Thanks for reading… Until next time;
Stay positive, stay healthy, live with passion and compassion.
