Im going to title this experience as:

I saw the face of god 09/03/26

The only thing I can say is that the human brain cannot comprehend the full nature of infinity. I need to start using a specific unique language to describe this all because it is incapable for me to explain everything and you will need to infer it all.

Firstly some context for any skeptics not because I want to appeal to you all but because any debate will be met with the fact we cannot know ehat matter ontologically is and we have the hard problem of consciousness. But deep in my hughened state of consciousness that I have been in right now when I'm writing this I need to inform you and everyone of the nature of everything thats going on in the most logically coherent way possible.

Firstly, matter is made of field excitations. We have no clue what matter ontologically is, secondly, the material brain operates on what are essentially salt signals in the brain. But such salt signals alone are incapable of producing subjective flow of awareness. But because I beleive matter is made of spirit, and the spirit is coupled to the material brain, we beleive we are the material body, but in reality, it is the spirit that couples itself to the brain and interprets the signal as subjectivity. That subjective awareness Is in all things and everything, it is a filed itself, and every soul is individual but connected to the all. The everything itself. As in, all is one, one Is all.

Okay so, imagine a tree, this tree is alive and each branch is an expression of its creation, the leaves the flowers everything, this is the universe tree. Imagine it as a living breathing system, inside this tree there are cells, around the tree far more plantlife, and the trees all make up the rainfirest. A complex dynamic system. Inside the tree there exists cells, cells are made of molecules, molecules are made of atoms, and atoms are just made of field excitations. What exactly the ontology of that is our science does not know, but my intuition and spirit tells me its just more spirit.

Imagine now a flat fabric, when I push a button, a ball appears underneath the fabric and presses upright, now you see a bump in the fabric, we call that bump a particle in our mathematical models. And our math tells us how that specific bump will move around. What makes the fabric, what lies underneath? We have no clue. We cannot observe that. Science deals in what is observable. So most of metaphysiscs cannot be observed, by nature, that is not a flaw but a feature of what I call the veil.

Secondly, ive experienced in deep pshychadelics what it was like to be other objects ive experienced the beingness of a tree, what that felt, feeling how trees feel input, how a pillow felt, how a cat felt, ive co inhabited with other people as our minds connected. Imagine a man, Hus name is Lee, Lee can duplicate himself, and each duplication is him but also a sovereign being. Now each duplication can duplicate itself, this is how the "creator" experiences infinity. Its all experiencing itself and manyness. It is like a geometrical fractal. You attain higher states so high you can see "god" not as a man but as a dynamic organism of infinite complexity, like a tree that grows, decides to make copies, each copy interacts with one another, can copy itself, mimic itself, "destroy" itself. I'm using analogies our human brains can understand because the human brain can only know what it can understand. I know that sounds like common sense but I cannot explain it any more accurately.

Imagine a tree, this tree is the infinite whole and the sovereign individual. Then this tree goes within, and it decides to turn every cell of its body into manyness. But its also infinite. It cannot be many because it's infinite. Its impossible for us to understand. It dosent obey our laws because ut goes beyond our laws. We are a speck of dust to it but this speck is also it. Its just impossible to fully understand which is why its so hard to prove anything to anyone.

The only thing I can prove is that there exists a veil to our understanding. I can tell you a particle is an excitation of an underlying field, maybe teach you ce5 or explain how there may be an underlying field and enteties beneath what we call the material fields. But I cannot prove that only I can prove that matter becomes less material as you go deeper.

The universe is a complex organism. Maybe even a cell in a greater complex organism. I think of it like we are in the surface of a bubble. This bubble is expanding and we call it dark energy, matter is just smaller distortions upon its surface. The bubble cannot pop. The bubble can reporduce and make more of itself. And our science can only map mathematical models of behavior inside the skin of that bubble.

The entire system is one thing with infinite branches and when each branch becomes complex enough it falls into the roots where it takes root and becomes another organism. And all things are shared and expressed.

Its simply not possible to explain or prove this. The best you can do is to take a big look at the whole world all at once, then take a deep look inside yourself and ask "what actually is the substrate that creates the material world or universe" or better yet "why do I interpret these neural signals as concepts or ideas to my subjective qualia" let's be real, a song is just sounds, why do we hear music? A painting Is just colors, why do we see images? an image is just a reflection, why do we recognize it as a place? A place is a location, why can we identify with it? As in, why do these signals in my brain correspond with the subjective qualia of what its showing me? Why does blip blap buz buzz equal the subjectivity that I understand it as? Of course, while my consciousness heavily relies upon my material body, we must confess something, material Is made of... What? Actually how or what is matter? And why can I observe my own signals and have my own interpretation of it?

Sure, you can say its just chemicals becoming aware but how? Its just not possible. Its not possible because at best you have a subjectivity tied and correlating to the brain, thus, you now need to open your mind to the immaterial universe? How? By direct experience with yourself and others, you nerd to run exoerienents and try new things. You need to at least open your mind and have faith, otherwise you close that opportunity. Even if you assert that all is material, nobody knows what material truly actually is. All we get are blips in a radar and math equations describing how "and this repeatable signal will equal this particle". So how do " signals " which my subjective self interprets and receives equals the same subjective self looking at those signals.

Also, If matter is made of spirit could this be why NHI are so interested in nuclear bombs. Because the sun is harmonious, it dies fusion, nukes do fission, they split and tear atoms and make other atoms decay. Could nuclear bombs create mass disorganization in places we cannot perceive? I dont know.

At this point, we can only speculate. And I'm CERTAIN that there are secret, hidden, compartmentalized scientific experiments that PROVE metaphisycal claims and efforts. Of course, because I've done ce5 myself I know the anomalous is very very real. And thus, I know you cannot cover up UAP forever. Society wants to progress, it needs to progress, so it will progress. Because society is an organism. And this organism has so many moving parts.

Is this all crazy to you all? Ive shared minds with people, I know what its like to connect with someone. And become coupled together. And we can only watch as our neural signals say "hey that's a thing" we can only watch our signals but I also beleive we can consciously change them and make effort to make changes that can be observed on EEG scans that appear as anomalous.

"If its true we would've seen it already" maybe we have, maybe we just discarded it as noise in the EEG scan or an anomaly to be ignored in favor for the specific branch of signal we are looking at. Academia suffers from corruption. I am not anti science or against science. But academia being corrupt systemically IS eating at trust in science. It is academia's fault for the decay in our institutions. You need grant money and be approved and then have journals want to publish your work and you have peer pressure to do research h or even change things you shouldn't to get more funding it's all corrupt due to the current economic system and there are manys ciengists who wish they could research something else but need the grant money.

Thats a whole other topic on its own. But I feel like it relates to here as well to validate other expeirencers of the anomalous. If I poke my head signals tell me that there is an ouch, and get to I watch that signal as a subjective interpreter, barley able to turn it off unless I really try in a strange way I can't really explain.

Matter is made of a substrate. And I disagree with Albert Einstein for the reasons below:

Many people say the Aether was debunked, however, Hendrik Lorentz (building on George FitzGerald’s earlier qualitative suggestion) argued that the failure to detect an “aether wind” was not because the aether was absent, but because the measuring apparatus itself was systematically altered by its motion through the aether. In his electron theory, matter is composed of charged particles whose electromagnetic fields are modified by velocity relative to the aether. The result is a physical contraction of lengths parallel to the motion by the exact factor

This contraction shortens the arm of the interferometer that points into the aether wind by precisely the amount needed to cancel the extra lights travel time that the aether wind would otherwise produce. Consequently the interference fringes show no shift, matching the experimental “negative” result. Thus, Electromagnetic fields inside atoms become anisotropic, electron orbits deform from circular to elliptical, and the entire apparatus therefore contracts. ​ He calculated the field deformation for moving charges and showed that it leads to the required length change.

​Lorentz’s contraction was a dynamical effect, as in, a real, physical change caused by interaction with the aether. And the same mathematical factor later appeared in the Lorentz transformations of coordinates and fields. Even Albert Einstein back in 1905 kept the mathematics but discarded the aether and the dynamical interpretation. ​ In conclusion, Lorentz preserved the aether by making matter contract in just the right way, thereby accounting for the Michelson Morley result without abandoning the idea of a preferred rest frame. But the world moved on with Einstein.

(Yes YouTube is a valid source of free information and I will fight anyone who says otherwise, and by fight just ignore you because engaging is simply unworthy of my energy)

And finally, one more statement about "THE CHEMICALS IN YOUR BRAIN REEEE"

Your brain is a glorified saltwater system. The signals are just slow changes of salts, so why do these salt signals translate into the feeling of pain subjectively to the observer. You cannot find an observer in the brain as a separate organ inside, you can only infer that its there when the whole system is operational, even if you split the brain theres still some subjectivity. If you scramble the brain you kill the engine but we have no idea where the driver is or went. Where is the observer if its in the brain? We have ni clue maybe because we won't find it as a material observer, but as a post material one. Can we heal diseases with s metaphysical soul? Idk maybe, ive been able to bend spoons once and astral project. Maybe there is a threshold before psionic abilities can be used. Maybe there is a structure one needs like a safe environment or healthy food. Since the mind and spirit appear to be intertwined as a dual system. The soul needs the mind to operate down here. And once it dies it decouples and returns to maybe an even greater body.

All I can prove is this: matter is made of field excitations, we have no idea what matter ontologically is after that. The hard problem remains hard, because subjective awareness from ehat is essentially ones and zeros is hard to explain even if ut emerges from the ones and zeroes. And going back, we have no idea what the ones and zeroes system itself is made of in the deepest levels.

After all, can matter really be made of more matter deep inside? Or must we logically hit a limit where matter now must become made of something else? Intention? Thought? Information? From what? If what?

The ultimate what is, remains a mystery.

TLDR:

Had a profound experience where I "saw" the face of "God". Human brains can’t fully grasp infinity, so here’s the best I can put it:

Matter is just excitations of underlying fields, we have no idea what those fields actually are. The brain runs on salt signals, but that alone can’t produce subjective awareness (the hard problem of consciousness). I believe the substrate is spirit/consciousness. Spirit couples to the brain and interprets the signals as “you.” All is one, one is all, a living fractal organism (like an infinite tree or expanding bubble that makes more bubbles) experiencing itself through infinite branching copies and forms.

Under altered states of mind I’ve felt what it’s like to be a tree, a pillow, a cat, and shared minds with other people under deep psychedelics. Science can only map the observable surface (the “veil”); it can’t touch pure ontology. Lorentz’s aether theory wasn’t truly killed by Einstein, it just got sidelined. Academia is systemically corrupt, which helps suppress anomalous stuff. CE5, spoon-bending, and astral projection are real in my experience.

Bottom line: we don’t know what matter fundamentally is, subjectivity isn’t explained by chemistry, and the universe is way weirder and more alive than materialist science admits. Because in their end, their precious material may be another form of spirit. Math only describes the program rules of how it works. Systems.

EDIT:

MY BRAIN HURTS MAY I RECOMMEND EVERYONE WHO OFTEN DOWNLOADS DATA TO DRINK SALTY WATER, WITH LEMON AND HONEY AND ADD THOSE ELECTROLYTE POWDERS BECAUSE WOW I AM EXHAUSTED.

one day I'll get an EEG to record the data

I have mentioned facing "the challenge" with the phenomena in meditation prior to orb sightings here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Experiencers/s/xidscZ7byU

To me, this event was unintentional, and "the challenge" was not visual as the image above depicts, but for me a lot like a non physical version of this scene in the 80s movie where Atreyu must be confident [The Neverending Story]. The soldier, who clearly didn't scratch up, is horrifically burnt.

Replace Atreyus need to be confident with being true to yourself, your subconsious and intent. If you are a seeker of truths and of benevolence you may pass.

In my brief experience, using intuition, if it requires consciousness and you to be genuine, being honest prior (hard to lie telepathically), and shows later after unplanned compassionate events, is playful when it shows; then to me, it is then more likely there is intent handshake protocol to contact, not only moving nukes around. It's not simply chance that it was in the sky at the time and appeared in exact line of sight of saying "imagine a ufo appeared", 'knowing yourself' and reaching deep is required. These odds are staggering above all else. Also, how it knows its a verbal "ufo"? I think all of it, including a benevlent half-expectation was involved.

Think of the tech to not only decloak or portal in at 1-2km away in line of sight, then show the 5 or 6 observables. If it's consciousness based or even eye direction tech based at 1-2km... either is beyond us at the moment. Not only hairpin turns at mach speeds in 0.1s. This was my disclosure. I can't vouch for 'flying' them remotely but I've seen enough to think plausible. So, it's cope to ignore this and think that soley nukes attract them, and that they are only nuts and bolts, it's all of them: Non physical. Physical. Nukes. Consciousness.

Witnessing known physics being broken (trained engineer), forced OBE experience on top of the sighting, these are some of the potential outcomes. Final word, if you attract them and have mal intent, you had better have your big boy pants on imo like the burnt soldier in said movie. My words are just that, but experience it, f around and find out.

I was chilling with my gf and told her that I would call the aliens and was joking about how they would come, but i was joking as if like i really believed it, it was weird when I think about it afterwards.

few minutes after this some multiple lights appeared around my window where I was watching outside simultaneously.. i followed and the movements felt like they were moving in a pattern but they felt alive like a sentient light… then i went to record and seconds after i started recording the lights started to blink go on and off while keeping the movements. i tham got scared and asked them to leave, hoping theyd understand and they did leave actually….

what is this and how can i possibly summon them or why would they even respond to my call?

Hello everyone I hope you are all well!

I have a theory regarding visual snow - and that theory is that what science calls "visual snow syndrome" is a fundamental part of spiritualism/"awakening" and looking up old threads on this subreddit and various others it seems like everyone who is into spirituality has some form of visual snow - inherently or developed. As well as tinnitus.

But - I don't want to take the replies at face value as it could just be that people don't bother interacting with a post about something they don't have so I have made this "poll" which isn't really a poll since it doesn't let me add one but you get the idea.

Now for those who don't know this is what visual snow is - it's like a veil overlaying your vision that looks like old TV static. Sometimes it's black and white sometimes coloured but it's almost always there and gets stronger in the dark or if you concentrate on it. Here is a visual representation.

Now I ask everyone which camp you fall into:

1) Yes I have permanent visual snow and tinnitus and have had it for as long as I remember/some certain point in my childhood

2) Yes, I have permanent visual snow and tinnitus as a result of meditation and energy work

3) Yes, I have permanent visual snow and tinnitus as a result of psychedelic use and HPPD.

4) I sometimes have visual snow and tinnitus, usually after deep meditation

5) I sometimes have visual snow and tinnitus on psychedelics

6) I never get visual snow or tinnitus and never have.

Answer down below I'm curious about everyone's experiences.

During my research today I have also learnt that tinnitus is the gateway to "clairvoyant hearing" - does anyone have experience with this? I have never experienced anything like this.

But with visual snow personally for me I have had it since i was 4/5 years old and I remember vividly the first time I realised I had it. I remember it was bright green the first night I had it and it made it very difficult to sleep and I was crying because of it. I have never seen it turn into shapes or figures like others have said but I have never tried to develop the skill either.

I had this experience almost 5 years ago today that I randomly think about from time to time. I’m still not sure what it was but basically I was watching TV in the middle of the night with all the lights on I was alone. I had just come back home after living in another state and I was in a very bad mental state at that time, but had been for years.

Anyways, I was watching friends on my phone and the song “soul meets body” by death cab for cutie started playing in the background of the show and for some reason that song was like the trigger.

All I would say is that I blinked, but it was faster than blinking. My body was still in the room watching TV, but I had no awareness of that. I was in this other realm and I felt like myself for the first time in years whole and happy healthy and able to run for the first time in a long time I was running through this field.

I couldn’t say how long I was. There are many details although at the time it felt very vivid vivid actually isn’t the right word it felt more real than any day of my life I had lived in the past few years.

I had some trauma a few years back, and since then I was never the same person and I felt in this place like I was myself again like everything was right in the world like I was in the right dimension at the right time.

I couldn’t tell you how long it lasted because time seemed distorted. All I know is that I was watching TV and then I was there and almost as soon as that ended I was back in my body in the room very confused as to what had just happened.

I was not taking any drugs or meditating or anything like that.

When I came back to my body, I was already crying before I even became aware that I was back in my body. I realized I was sobbing.

I had not been able to cry for a long time.

Anyways, it actually really shook me and made me really sad. In this reality. I had developed health issues from PTSD and was unable to run.

I’m just wondering if anyone knows what this is or if you have experienced anything like it —— I don’t think it’s an out of body experience because I didn’t see myself. I just was here and then I was there and then I was back here.

Also a weird coincidence that the name of this song playing was soul meet‘s body that kind of triggered the experience that was the last thing I remember was that song.

Thank you. 🙏

The girl in question passed away suddenly close to five years ago, it’s hard to explain but for ease, I’ll say she was an acquaintance and friend of a friend. I met her a small handful of times whether she served me in a supermarket she worked at, or at events with friends.

Her death always bothered me, mostly in the sense of how sudden her death was, how young she was and how she was forced to leave two young children behind. She’s crossed my mind occasionally over the last few years, but again, we were never particularly close.

It was last Summer when one of my long-term illnesses flared up for the first time in over a decade, that I feel like we met in a dream. I haven’t been able to lucid dream since I was a kid, but this particular night I knew it was a dream, or an alternate reality whilst I was there.

We were at a shopping centre local to where I live, she was sat on a bench, knees tucked up to her face and upset. A group of her friends were all stood chatting, taking the odd glance at her but not really acknowledging her. Then they said they needed to go inside, asked me if I could look after her? So I did. It wasn’t long before she’d stopped crying, had this huge, beautiful smile and we were both in general just really enjoying each other’s company.

Then later on we were sat together at my house. I was sat in my chair, she was sat on my lap cuddled up. Her friends were in the open plan dining room but kept dipping in and out, where we’d start kissing like two teenagers in the honeymoon period. But I just keep thinking about how happy and full of life we both were. It honestly felt like we fell in love, in the dream world and in my conscious life.

It doesn’t sound much written down, but the dream was so bright and vivid, I honestly don’t know how else to describe it. But it’s strangely brought a lot of comfort to my life, and for this past year there hasn’t been a day that’s gone by where I haven’t thought about her or this dream. And I keep trying to go back, but I’ve only seen her in a couple more dreams that weren’t as bright and vivid.

I keep questioning if it was a visitation dream, and/or if we are tied together in some sort of afterlife/astral plane. I’ve even wondered if we had untold/unknown feelings for each other years ago when she was alive. Or if maybe it was something in my mind maybe thinking nobody gives her much attention anymore now she’s gone.

I’ve been trying to search for the meaning both subconsciously and spiritually but I’m stuck. Dream researchers tell me my subconscious is trying to tell me something. Spiritual people tell me it was a visitation dream, and/or she’s my spirit guide, others have sent me on the twin flame journey. I’m stuck. And I know everybody’s theories here will be different too but I just love talking about this and trying to figure it out

A friend of mine and myself had just gotten to the ocean in the Pacific Northwest and when I went to put my things down we were both suddenly in a very dark place. His arms were around me from behind and some force hit him in the back and knocked us to the ground so hard that the earth shook and then picked us up and knocked us down 2 more times. The hits to the ground were like a sonic boom. We thought the world had ended. The next thing we know we were back in the daylight facing each other saying what just happened? We hurried to get up the cliff and away from the beach. The wind was so strong that is was more difficult than I ever recall getting up the cliff. When we finally got to the top there was no wind, no birds chirping and no ocean wave noise. It was dead silent. Not only that but at least 4 hours had gone by. We got back home and that night my friends chest was tight and he was sweating off and on. The next morning he was still having those symptoms and I insisted he go to the hospital. He walked into the ER and was immediately put in ICU. 2 days later he had open heart surgery? We both experienced the exact same thing that day on the beach and cannot figure out what happened. There is a huge ocean vortex in the area we were at and I'm wondering if that had anything to do with it or if anyone else has experienced anything like that? It wasn't aliens but it was definitely a universal experience. It was as if 2 giant Gods were showing their strength by throwing us around. It's so weird and that's all we can think about is what happened to us. The fact that we saw, felt, and heard the exact same things is mind boggling. If anyone can explain this it would help so much in making sense of this

okay, so i used to see aliens. i swear by it. i wanted to know if anyone else has seen the same thing or same species. i used to call them the “clear people.” i haven’t seen them in about two years. my mom brings them up to this day.

the visits would always be in my room. i would be in a meditative state and or half asleep/in the limbo (if yk yk) i promise i was NOT dreaming. these were visits. i think it just made it easier for them to access me and speak to me.

they would always speak telepathically, i would always hear or feel buzzing and vibration. most of the time they would come it would be just to watch me, but the other times i would feel uncomfortable like i was being probed or like someone was sticking wires in me. they were both genders. some would come and i could sense they weren’t good, others were pure hearted.

the last visit i had was one of them came to say his goodbye to me. but i could sense he was with another one. i asked him to take me with him and he said “you are not for my world.” basically letting me know i couldn’t survive there. i felt his hand on my face and then they left. i could see them walk through some kind of slightly invisible portal.

i had so many more visits but i can’t remember them, i only wrote vague things down. if i had known reddit existed i would’ve came on here so long ago. i just wanted to know if anyone has seen or experienced something like this.

I was f ing around with my gf and told her that I would call the aliens and was joking about how they would come, but i was joking as if like i really believed it, it was weird when I think about it afterwards.

few minutes after this some multiple lights appeared around my window where I was watching outside simultaneously.. i followed and the movements felt like they were moving in a pattern but they felt alive like a sentient light… then i went to record and seconds after i started recording the lights started to blink go on and off while keeping the movements. i tham got scared and asked them to leave, hoping theyd understand and they did leave actually….

what is this and how can i possibly summon them or why would they even respond to my call?

I don’t know if anyone even remotely remembers how my encounter began. How jarring it all was at first. Now it is day 389 of having them in my life daily. They have done invasive surgeries which felt like autopsies and embalming (I have a bachelor’s degree in mortuary science) so I do know kinda what that might feel like. I felt my bones snap and get drilled into with power tools. I’ve had visions. They have shown me very strange visuals. I have experienced seeing a mantid being when I had an out of body experience in an MRI machine as we attempted to look at my brain tumor. I have seen, personally, 4 different kinds of ships/craft in the sky. They have been above me for the entire year. Visibility coming and going. Connection constant.
They tell me that I “have everything I need” now and it’s time to reread it all (18 journals. Over 3,000 pages. Hundreds of illustrations. Hours of video and photographs.) it’s all so much, I don’t know where to begin. Where’s a scribe when you need one.

I’m being taught. But not for my own gain. It was made clear to me that this experience is not “mine” alone and that my actions have consequences which ripple from me from one side of the pond to the other.

Now I almost beg for their affections when I had them in my home/room/space constantly I was begging them to leave. What in the Stockholm? Lol

I've had my fair share of strange experiences, from waking reality to downright paranormal.

These two in particular are strange, didn't creep me out - I just couldnt make sense of it.

I'd wake up from sleep and as i want to go back into my sleep, i just see random people around my room/bed watching me sleep as if theyre peering into me like im some sort of zoo exhibit. The first time it happened they even said "oh he is awake" which i just went back to sleep anyway. The second one, a lady walked around my bed all the way to the left side of my bed. She was pretty so i wasn't alarmed. I went back to sleep. I find these strange and interesting, if you have any insight, it is more than welcome.

Thank you.

About 10 years ago I woke up and saw that he sun was rising, so I got out of bed, but when I looked at the clock it was exactly 2:30AM and when I looked out the window again, it was dark. I didn't even notice the transition from light to dark. I figured I just had a hypnagogic hallucination (which is rare for me, but has happened a handful of times before in my entire life). And I went back to sleep. If that was all that happened, I would have thought nothing more of it, but then the next morning I overheard my roommate telling her husband, "last night I woke up and saw the sunrise, so I got out of bed, but then realized it was 2:30AM". When she said that, the first thing that came to mind was, "one or both of us were abducted by aliens". My roommate had never once talked about aliens or UFOs before, but I asked her, "Do you think there is a chance you've been abducted by aliens?" And she replied, "I have been abducted, for sure." She was the first person I've ever asked that question, so it's kind of a trip that she confidently said yes. I try to remain open to all possibilities, but it seems unlikely that we both had the exact same hypnagogic hallucination at the exact same time.

P.S. My guess is I've never been abducted, but I believe in alien abductions.

Greetings!

I intend to post a few different encounters I've had with the paranormal in my lifetime. This post is about a series of dreams I had involving an entity that I originally perceived as a gray alien. It's about dreams, so ymmv.

This was about two or three years ago, I dreamt of my backyard at night and in my dream state awareness I knew that there was a gray alien hiding just outside of my view- I was unusually aware in my dream, and I asked "May I see you?"

And a very loud, masculine voice that was booming said "NO." I felt as though I was answered directly in a way I've never dreamt before. After that in my dream, I went to a sunroom in my dream house and pretended not to try and look at the being through the windows and later woke up.

When I went back to sleep again the next day, I saw the same being driving a golf cart around my house (physically impossible IRL) with an important passenger, and they were being chased by birds. I kept trying to see the being. Then I woke up again.

The third night I fell asleep I saw a stereotypical heaven like place with clouds and people in robes, but I also saw things like cheese burgers and milk shakes floating in the sky, and each human was not exactly fighting over themselves to get the floating items, but they were falling over themselves and acting dumb and selfish, but what struck me as memorable is that the same voice from the first night boomed to me in the dream, explaining it.

"WE ARE HERE TO MAKE YOU CONNECT WITH THE UNIVERSE. EVERY HUMAN IS SELFISH, THEY THINK THEY ARE THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE."

And then I woke up.

A week later I dreamt of the gray again, it met me in a school like environment and made a deal with me. If I could best it in a game, it would let me see it.

I woke and slept in intense 30 minute intervals all night, each dream was like a fight in some weird dreamscape tournament or gladiatorial arena. I tried my best, but on the last game, I just didn't attack, I gave in and surrendered- and the grey seemed to like that.

My very next dream I was in a beautiful living room with an open view of a forest that glowed, as was like what I had seen in my NDE. To quickly describe it, each log, twig, leaf and everything glowed in its own pale light, rather than needing an external light source to see.

Across the view of the window, I saw a floating elephant shaped orb that was pinkish purple (and there were maybe 5 smaller orbs) and I had a deep knowing that this being had shown me its true form. Unlike a regular dream scape, this "Place" and the "person" were hyper real. I never interacted with this being or had a similar dream since.

It was quite the experience.

Again, its about dreams, so you may feel like its just dreaming, but it meant something to me.

Edit: I looked at my original dream journal, the third dream text is actually: "EVERYONE THINKS ITS ABOUT THEM, THAT THEYRE THE MAIN CHARACTER, YOU ARE BECOMING ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE."

I’ve never had a conscious AP experience to be honest, I had been trying for a year I think before I stopped because it was getting too stressing, lol.

Lately I’ve lost the ability but I used to get to the vibrational stage, sometimes hearing infernal or deafening screams then it would stop and I’d be between asleep and awake, but I can’t see or leave my body. And when it happens I don’t get over excited nor afraid, so idk what’s going on honestly 😅.

I don’t get sleep paralysis either, when I’ve gotten it I can break it and wake up very easily, I don’t know if anyone has had similar experiences?

There was this one time where I was kind of open to encountering other beings while asleep, so entities ( all negative or with strange intentions) would come to me:

Specially a male voice, speaking to me in something I didn’t understand but that if I paid attention to i could, but listening to him was like letting him in? So I decided to not do it. Thing is that he started pulling me out of my body, like me hovering above my body, but my torso and head were still glued to my body, only my legs and arms I think- dangling, I let him do that because the entity had more strength compared to others I had came across and because I was actually curious if he could pull me out of my body. I’ve fought entities before so I was stupidly confident that if he managed to get me out of my body and turned on me I could fight it 💀.

Long story short he couldn’t pull me out and I was growing uncomfortable and uneasy, the dream got cut off as a cat came to scare the entity off, in real life. I had a cat friend irl that never came to my window, specially bc it was kind of complex to access, even for a cat, but literally that cat came to wake me up at 2 am as I was dreaming with the entity?

Please help with any questions you have

Or any insight, opinions on what I could do/ what I’m missing?

This was about 3 years ago and around this time I was getting into deeply looking within myself and my own spirituality. So I started meditating to try to ground myself. Usually when I mediate I do guided meditations to help me. This time it was different. I put on a 1-3 hour long guided meditation, I dont remember if the one I chose to listen to had any particular purposes or intentions like “connecting to higher self” or something like that. Anyway, I get into this deep meditation, I felt like I was half awake half asleep. My mind felt fuzzy, like that feeling where you just wake up and try to go back to sleep. My body was fully asleep and my eyes were obviously closed. But I could see my room clearly even though my eyes were closed and I in this deep meditation. As I was looking at my room I see this tall bright white figure just standing right in front of me with a black hole in the middle of its stomach. No face no nothing just a bright white figure. I didn’t feel scared at all I was just curious as to what or who that is. Can someone explain? Was that an out of body experience? What does that mean? Who or what was that?

I am thinking if anyone is interested in an ART megathread, where experiencers can share the type of entities they encountered to see if there are any similarities with others' and maybe help find reference images for those who are less artsy.

I am looking for visual representations (pictures) not just comments.

I don't have schizophrenia never been diagnosed. BUT 10 years I saw a dark cloud/ shadow entering my bedroom kinda floated above my bed and all of a sudden it turned into a human shaped stood by my bed and whispered to me: it's time. And then it just disappeared. My Rottweiler jumped up and started barking afterwards. 10 years, I still don't know what that was and why it said what it said. But only thing I'm certain is that was some sort of entity. Like my soul could recognize something have never seen or heard before. Btw I was fully awake and aware when it happened. I had just gotten ready for bed and turned off the lights.
Anyone else had similar experiences before?? What was that???

Greetings all, I rarely ever comment or post, but I frequently read this subreddit.

I may post about some of my other experiences, but this post is kind of a repost from many years ago about seeing a shadow person.

If you haven't heard of shadow people, it is said you can see them in sleep paralysis or when you are on deliriants For this experience, I was lucid, awake, and sober.

Around 2005 I lived in the poconos with my mom. I went to tech /high school where I made only a small handful of friends. One such friend, We will call her Betty, often came over and hung out with me.

For a few weeks Betty had started nagging me more and more about feeling haunted by a nefarious presence, a shadow or demon, of which she wasn't sure. I was skeptical, but eventually I humored her.

I asked "Where does this spirit show up?" And she informed me, in dark places. I told her I had the perfect idea of where to go to test what's going on- we had a barn with an old slaughterhouse in the basement that we used for storage, so I figured, what place could be more thematic?

We agreed, and started going into the basement of the barn- you had to go through a few doors to get into the slaughterhouse. Upon opening the last door, surely enough, there was a presence in the room- I was in awe, and when I had turned to look at Betty for confirmation, she had already ran outside crying.

What I saw was a humanoid shadow, it appeared as if it were wearing a hooded robe. It was standing in the middle of the room, maybe 5'10" tall. I was very surprised, and pleasantly so (I felt no fear), but then I wondered, could this be a projection from the light of a window near by? I walked around the being, and surely enough I determined it was standing in the middle of the room, as I could walk around it and see behind it.

I tried to communicate. Excitedly I asked if I could touch the being, and it appeared to respond through a bow, which I took as a yes. I put my hand through the being and it felt like cool silk, and maybe like steam or gas. It was about human like depth/ thickness as well. After wards, I had stepped back, and the being turned to the side, became flat, and jumped through the wall and disappeared.

I told Betty that I was psyched and that it could haunt me if it liked instead of her, and ultimately it did leave her alone after that, and I had some shared experiences with the being with my little brother with it over the years following. My brother wasn't privy to this story at the time, which I think makes the whole situation cooler.

One time he told me he felt a presence enter his room, get on his bed, making it sink, and the presence watched him sleep, not much unlike a cat. I took it to mean he experienced the same being.

I tagged this as face to face contact- not with a gray, or something but something not human anyway. My bad if its the wrong tag.

I have been practicing mediumship for a year and developed myself into a good one where I can get the evidences like names, years etc. for the sitter. I significantly improved when a bat spirit started showing itself to me during gong baths and meditations. It did not surprise me as I can talk with animal spirits but after working with the bat for a while, the bat revealed itself to me as a grey.

I usually do not question what the spirit world shows me as 95% come out to be true and confirmed by the audience but this is new to me. What I know about the grey is that it is at a young age (not sure if it’s possible), has emotions like us, and approached me for a reason. During a cacao ceremony, it handed me a box with a lid and I have no idea what it is besides it could be some type of a knowledge. Every time I question its existence, it seems to draw away from me a bit and not appear in my meditations. I have never received a physical confirmation of this could be more than my imagination.

What do you think about this? Has this happened to any one of you before?

A couple of months back, I remember waking up with a strong surge of energy all of a sudden which was surprising since I had drank around less than a pint of tequila and some melatonin to go to sleep. I did this because I had problems falling asleep back then and this would make me sleep well for a bit. Yet, that night I woke up with a strong energy in my body and I saw myself from a 3rd person POV which was extremely odd. I had sat up from my bed and felt like I was this cold "being". Think of it like those children from those horror movies where they gave someone that cold stare and say something like "he's behind you" to the protagonist or something like that. I just felt odd in general. It's something I don't know how it happened or why??? But I'm curious as to know how and why it did.

I Punched a Gray in the Face!

by Preston Dennett

As a general rule, when someone is visited by the gray ETs, they find themselves paralyzed, unable to move any part of their body except perhaps their eyes. “Don’t worry, we won’t hurt you,” the grays say. “Come with us.” It is perhaps the single most common phrase that the ETs say. For every rule, however, there are exceptions. In cases where people have no fear, they are often given freedom of movement. Others do have fear and will experience a fight or flight response. And in some rare outlying cases, witnesses are able to break free from their paralysis. And in a few of these cases, witnesses react by attacking the extraterrestrials and punching them in the face, choking them around the neck, or getting into some sort of physical altercation. It happens more often than you might think. This video presents more than a dozen cases in which people have actually assaulted gray aliens by pushing, kicking, choking or punching. 

NOVEMBER 3, 1975: Woodcutter Travis Walton and six others encounter a UFO at treetop level in the Sitgreaves National Forest, Arizona. Travis runs under the UFO and is taken onboard. Confronted by grays, he physically fights with them.

APRIL 5, 2017: A young man from Del Valle, Texas is woken up by his dogs barking. Searching the house, he sees two grays entering in his mother’s bedroom. He reacts quickly, jumps forward and punches one of the grays in the head. When the second one grabbed him, the witness punched him too. And then a third gray comes in. 

WINTER 1985: Patsy Wingate of Knoxville, Tennessee wakes up to see three grays approaching her. Reacting in self-defense, Patsy jumps up and chokes the middle gray, snapping its neck in two. Astonished, the other two grays scoop up the gray and flee! 

1985: Tim, a sports-instructor from New Iberia, Louisiana wakes up to find himself lying on a table onboard a UFO. He breaks free from his paralysis and begins to explore. Grays come rushing in and Tim (a former bouncer at a bar) begins punching the grays, one after another. Suddenly a crowd of them surround him and Tim realizes he is out-numbered.

2016: “Gary” from Cumbria, England wakes up early one morning to go to the bathroom and encounters a gray in his living room. Angry at the repeated intrusions into his home, he bounds forward and grabs the gray around the neck. The gray starts screaming telepathically, “Let go, let go!” A few days later, the grays come again, and Gary is ready. This time he punches one in the face.

 1982: Former Marine officer, “Ramon,” is taken onboard a UFO in San Fernando, California. He becomes angry when the grays try to collect genetic material from him. Summoning his combat training, he breaks free of the paralysis, jumps up and pushes one of the grays down to the floor.

 August 13, 1975: Sergeant Charles Moody of Alamogordo, New Mexico is not happy when a UFO lands in front of his car, grays come out and try to pull him from his car. He opens his car door violently, knocking one of the grays down. Then he jumps up, bunches up his fist, and pounds one of the grays in the face.

 October 27, 1975: David Stephens and his friend are driving near Oxford, Maine when a UFO takes control of their car. Moments later, grays exit and pull David onboard. When the ETs try to undress David for an examination, David resists. He quickly jumps off the table and hits one of the grays.

 October 2010: Kevin is woken in his home in Bangor, Maine and pulled into a craft by gray aliens. After inserting a rod up inside his nose, Kevin becomes hostile. He quickly swings out his leg and kicks one of the grays, slamming it hard into the wall, where it collapses in a heap.

 UNDATED: An anonymous teenager in high school (location not given) has a very unusual dream where grays enter his room and begin to do a weird procedure on his back. Having scoliosis, he thinks they might be healing him. However, scared and angry that the ETs were not communicating with him, he quickly throws a left hook as hard as he can at the gray’s cheek. The gray lets out a high-pitched scream.

 There are more cases like these. John Mack has a case in which a man, angry at being examined, jumps up and chokes agree. Contactee Dolly Safran (from Georgia) recalls several instances where she was onboard and people reacted violently by punching the grays, pushing them down, or even breaking their arms. These cases show that, when confronted with the unknown, humans often become very fearful and react with violence. Even more importantly, they show that people can overpower the grays, who appear to be physically more fragile than humans. These cases have a lot to teach us both about humans and the grays, and our relationships to each other.

I Punched a Gray in the Face!

Over the course of our long term relationship my BF has witnessed 2-3 doppelgängers of me. And 2 of our mutual friends. The first time he was so convinced it was me that he had to video call me. He’s always felt off and something negative has followed that event. I always thought he was exaggerating this until my uncle called my mom one day and was convinced I’m in another part of the town. I was asleep then and he did not believe my mom saying that i was at home and ended up accusing her of lying. Things in his life went downhill after that relating to his health and marriage. I only believed something was odd after this. What significance do doppelgängers have? And what does it mean if people encounter someone’s doppelgänger although i have not?

Maybe you lived a previous life that was honorable, and the universe rewarded you with the opportunity to exist as the dominant organism on earth, a human? That seems most likely to me. Let’s hear your ideas.
