Man, it feels so late, but its only like 10:30. Drew brought home Punch Drunk Love, so I’m gonna watch that in a second. I just wanted to report on my first foray into OBE earlier. I had the bright idea to make myself this cd of repetitive loud white noise, using my trusty-dusty computer. So I made this 30 minute CD, and threw that on my headphones. It worked remarkably well. I wouldn’t say that I left my body, but I went into this super relaxed AND super concentrated state, where I was like trying to listen to this point in the center of my head. Something like that. I’m guessing, that within like maybe 3-4 minutes, I entered some other state of consciousness, using that formula. It was very similar to the hypnagogic state, just before you fall asleep. There was one point where I did that seeing-through-my-eyelids trick that I learned in my dream the other day, and that worked really good. It really tweaked me out. Its a nice little paradox to throw your mind into. Making you realize you see with more than your eyes. There was one point right around there, that my body kind of tweaked out, and tensed up, I think as sort of a defensive manuever, cause it was aware of what was happening maybe and was trying to jolt me. Who knows. I’ve noticed that sort of thing happening before in similar states of mind. There was also one point right towards the end, where I really honest and truly believed that I was moving my arms around, and then waving them over my head. But they felt all kinds of weird. The only way that I know that I wasn’t, was because a little while after that, I finally came to, and realized that I had stayed still the whole time. But that seems like a pretty good first step, with the fake arm waving. Oh, also, when I came to, it turned out that I had been under for a whole hour, and that my noise CD had stopped more than 30 minutes ago, but I hadn’t noticed, and also, it seemed as though the whole entire experience maybe lasted like 5 minutes total.
