FRESH AIR; MEDICINE OF THE GODS

FRESH AIR; MEDICINE OF THE GODS

George told me to lie down and close my eyes, I had put on a Mike Oldfield ‘’tubular bells’’ and he started to help me to breath properly, he told me to breath in, and as I do this breath in light and visualize a white light filling my lungs, as I exhale visualize breathing out darkness . After a while he told me to relax all areas in my body starting with my toes then the bottom of my feet then my Ankles, calf's and so on all the way to my face and last my eyes I think. Every area of my body had been tightened up then relaxed a couple of times each. My body felt like a rock, solid and dense but the strange thing was I felt I was not in my body; as my body lay in this rock like state I felt a buzzing from my head to my toes about 10 inches deep sitting on top of my body, as I found out later this was astral travel. My soul separated from my body just lying on top, I knew I could leave my body and go anywhere, all I had to do was let go but I didn't know that then. All this experience from my body and soul was too much to handle and with excitement I jumped up telling George of this experience. I did not travel anywhere out of my body but after this experience I knew I could and all it would take was no drugs and no alcohol just pure fresh air. It was a buzz I've never again tried and not for any apparent reason other than I'm too lazy. Or it was just not meant to? Yes the later I believe.

Similar experiences I've had before on drink and drugs but not guided like this one without chemicals flowing through my bloodstream. I used to feel this when I was avoiding the horrible feeling when the room starts spinning and I feel as sick as a dog and can't get up to be sick after drinking too much which was often, the floor and the bed would get it till I learned how to control it. I would get to this place of going to be sick everywhere and instead of looking up or thinking of my stomach I would feel into this spinning and buzzing that was happening and ride this buzz till I was tingling all over and reached the other side without being sick. I grew to love this feeling. But after feeling and understanding what happened with George and the meditation it gave me a whole new outlook on the hippie idea of love & peace. This love and peace can be found without the need for mind altering chemicals. I was about three month sober and only smoked cigarettes, I was clean. George went away that night and I went to bed feeling out of this world. The next morning I awoke to a knock at the door. On answering a friend called wull was standing. The sky was blue and the sun was out. As we stood chatting I began telling him of a dream I had the night before, a sparrow hawk came down and landed on my mother's fence in front of us 15 feet away, I proceeded to tell him how it jumped from one fence post to another in a half circle about us. And as I was saying this a sparrow hawk came down and did exactly the same as what I was just saying. I remember our faces, stunned we were to see this unfolding before our eyes. I spoke to wull a couple of years ago about this but he did not seem to recollect it. I remember it as if it was yesterday.
