I'm just about done w/ school here (and everywhere else for that matter), so I'll be losing access in a couple of weeks (at least local access). If I don't talk to some of you in the next two weeks, have a good summer, since I probably won't be on much then, and a good life, incase I don't get access back once I'm settled. Anyway, here's a special treat for everyone: Dave's (Tvos) journal entry recounting his witnessing of the birth of Jesus (sure, we finally get something that could spark conversation on here, and the digest goes away..) -------------------------------------------------- "Important" shit in this issue: Tvos has seen the lord! -------------------------------------------------- RushServ Bulletin Board Subjects: Still the same old shit -------------------------------------------------- Digest Subjects: 1 "the birth of christ" -------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue, 18 Apr 1995 00:06:13 -0500 From: dwarner@oeonline.com (The Voice Of Silence) Subject: "the birth of christ" 04/08/1995 Time: 10:30am - 11:30am "the birth of christ" After I logged off the internet talking with my girlfriend Sandra Cooke from nova scotia,canada for a few hours. I felt inside that a astral projection was possible due to my body chemistry and mental state of mind that has given me the edge to leave under these conditions. It didn't take me long to enter the hypnotic state upon falling sleep. I awakened to light vibrations running all around my body and music playing as if someone had put headphones on my ears. The weird thing about this music that was playing, it was a child song from what I can recall. I thought the song was silly and couldn't figure out for the life me why this music was playing. As this music was playing in my ears i was able to look thru my eye-lids at dark suroundings. I know that my perception was viewing the side of the wall but also it seemed that a face emerged from this darkness. Could it have just been my hands, my face or what? This I do not know and maybe never know... While all this chaos was happening I heard a voice talking with me saying something along the lines of 'the hand that you see it what you've created'. But when I would look out of my eye-lids I didn't see any hands or maybe I did... too hard to judge at the time.. although the feelings are there and it felt as if I was looking at a hand, but not to totally sure. Also, the voice that was talking with me carried on thru the rest of the experience which for the most part everything was incoherent. I do remember asking this voice (teacher) to help me reach a higher level in conscious and to guide me properly. As I asked this voice which I'll call teacher, I felt hands around the back of my body pushing me upward with a big thrust of one motion. Next second later I was traveling thru some sort of space where I could see light that was pure white on the sides of my view which looked like a tunnel for entry. There was just a few tunnels of light from what I could see, but I didn't touch this tunnels from what I can recall. At one moment in time everything around me turned into blackness with shiny brown diamond shapes generating light on and off. The feeling that I recieved from this level was content, serine and a total different feel that I've never experienced in previous projections. It wasn't something that I would want to remain in this state and never come back, but it's real nice to experience this sort of conscious awareness.... After being in this dimension for a little bet the whole scenerio changed to where the darkness turned into a actual physical environment. I saw stars around me, a desert and man/woman on a donkey heading towards a city with lights glowing. I saw sand dunes, camals, kings and horses arriving to this city with in the darkness of the night. The night was warm with a light cool breeze wrestling palm trees around the edge of the city and desert. I knew at first what was happenig when I saw the man and woman on the donkey heading towards the city in which it was the birth of jesus christ. The next scene changed from the desert surroundings to looking directly at the manger scene with lord jesus christ in the stable. There were alot of people gathered around the manger witnessing this event in time. The last thing that I can recall was that this wicked witch of the west from the move 'wizard of oz' was chasing me around behind the people gathered at the manger scene witnessing this event. I did catch a glimpse of this witch that was chasing me around and she did have a green face and was small for her height.. Why this came about I do not know, but this kinda throws a fork into view.. I do not know why this happened.. and maybe will never know... Once I returned back to my physical body I was just a little blown away from what took place. Excited yes and in question of what happend yes... I feel that I'm getting closer to my teacher and finally making head way to higher levels learning about myself. Some of my experiences lately I've been trying to strive for years now and they are finally coming true... Maybe it's a act on my part of growing up and not just wanting to leave the body for the experience, but to reach higher with the meaning so I can learn... it makes sense to me... For who ever is helping me "Thank You!!"
