This OBE experience took place in 1980 when I was already accustomed to traveling, but in this case, it was more automatic than I was to decide where my destination would be. It is provided here as a poem.
From my room through the air
I was blown by a wind
it carried me to a quiet town
I had not seen or been
I stepped across the street
to a park on the other side
and came upon a baker’s shop
that caught my searching eye
A few people stood by the window
and we all looked in
as a lonely young girl
placed a cake within
Slowly through the window
I put my arms and hands
to see what I could feel
as if I had this planned
The girl raised her head
and gave to me a smile
as if to say to me
won’t you please stay awhile
I smiled back
and went on not too far
then skimmed across the street
nearly being hit by a car
An older man was driving
his hair was short and gray
I could see the way he felt
was better he did not say
The wind picked me up again
back to my room I returned
to awaken from a journey
to where I may never learn
* The wind is called the Astral Wind. While standing outside my body in the room, I could hear and feel it as it swept me off to the town which took maybe 5-10 seconds to reach.
* A few people: They were two men on either side of me, dressed in the same trench coat, with blurred faces. The girl lifted her head up to look at the one on my left, then to the one on my right, and then at me and smiled. I could also see them in the reflection in the window. The two were spirit guides; this being my first view of them, they have often shown me around heaven or brought others to me throughout my life. Over time I began to see their faces.
* Through the window/arms and hands: It was a sticky or clammy kind of feeling which I have experienced before when only able to move my arms and hands or legs out of body.
* Location Traveled to – If you’re familiar with the different levels surrounding the earth it would not be the astral plane nor the higher most levels but a level in-between.
* Everything happens for a reason, and the reason here was to show me this area of life. A pre-planned experience by spiritual teachers in the higher realms.
