Even As a young child I have always known that there was more to reality then that which we can perceive. At an age between seven and nine, when I was sleeping over at an aunt's house. I was going through her library of books when I found a book on meditation. It caught my attention and created a curiosity that sent me on a reading spree. I read how there were side benefits when one would practice meditation. Besides getting to know oneself there were psychic powers like telepathy, telekinesis, clairvoyance and astral projection.I wanted to experience all of these powers and prove to myself that they existed.

  I began to experiment with telepathy and telekinesis. I experimented for years with indeterminate results, nothing conclusive.I increased my meditative efforts. On occasions, I would meditate up to six hours at a time.
At the age of fifteen, the most important event of my life changed my belief of other worlds and realities into personal experience. I bought a book on astral projection called Journeys Out of the Body by Robert Monroe. His experiences so impressed me that I tried the excersises in his book. On my first try, I had my first completely conscious out of body experience. Here then is my first conscious OOBE (Out of Body Experience).
It was a saturday afternoon and I laid down to try the experiment. I went into a relaxation technique as described in the book. I fell asleep and began to dream. I dreamed that a couple of friends and I entered an abandoned house and were exploring when a witch appeared. We all began to run. I was running but getting nowhere and she was getting closer. I began to panic and realized that I was dreaming. I tried to jump away from the witch while simultaneously trying to wake up. I felt myself jump up and the dream disappeared while my vision came in. I was three feet above my body with my position in the air in full view. There was an energy vibration coursing through me accompanied by a loud ringing noise. I began to inspect my nonphysical form. My entire nonphysical body was a reddish energy outline. I felt with my nonphysical hands and my nonphysical body felt just like my physical. I began to scream "My god, all the possibilities. All the stories are true, Monroe wasn't lying." I began to float back down and reintegrated with the physical. The vibrations faded and I got up screaming ecstatically.

After this experience I became obsessed with producing more OOBE's. I kept doing the technique but was unable to produce the OOBE at will. When I did produce it they were always very brief (less than five minutes). It was so fustrating because I was also limited to my immediate surrounding (about ten feet or less). This lasted for years. I was only able to produce the experience one out of twenty to thirty attempts.

I finally stopped and decided to analyze the situation. For me to be able to extend the OOBE I would have to gain complete control over my sleep state. I would have to master the mind awake/ body asleep condition which is the best state for conscious OOBE's. Out of this necessity and hundreds of trial and error experiments, I developed a technique thas has marked a turning point in my OOBE experimentation. Now, in the pages to come will be the results of years of personal experimentation into the OOBE phenomenon.

          A Poem By Me.
  (based on actual experience)

      ' The Land of the Dead '

Floodgate opens, numbness begins to spread, once again I travel the land of the dead.
Here in the lower I search for the higher, magnificent spritual heights of which I aspire.
Thoughts manifest and a gateway opens,  heres my chance or at least I'm hoping.
Like someone trying to win a race, I hurriedly jump through the open space.
Not knowing what to expect, I abandon all fear and yell "what the heck".
Travelling through a tunnel faces appear and begin to mock, then it ends and I land on a rock.
Black empty darkness as far as the ' eyes' can see, nothing at all except this rock and me.
An eternity passes of me feeling alone, bored and fustrated " I'm going back home".
I focus on my physical body lying in bed, then I begin to fade out of  the Land of the Dead.

I love to recieve feedback on my website. Tell me what you think.

I have been going through a lot of "living in the physical". I had gotten married, had a baby girl and am now seperated. These physical activities have occurred within the span of three years. Within this time I have had sporadic exits out of body and did not have time to dedicate to my further explorations of the nonphysical. My present circumstances have left me with more time to resume my experimentation and I will update the site soon with my nonphysical activities from the three years prior. I will also add my ongoing explorations of the farther reaches of nonphysical reality.                     Louis Ruiz 6/30/2002                                                                 
         Quick Update

I am now 31 Yrs old and living in Grandview WA. I am working as a computer technician and I still Go OBE regularly.Even Now , a few minutes ago I came back from an OBE where I was helping  a lost soul find her way. I normally don't do that but it seemed to be important for me to help this person. Anyways, I don't write journals of  my anymore OBEs since I have so many of them. Its kind of like writing what you did everytime you walk to the store.Be back soon.

One of the things I have learned is that there are superhumans that live amonst the population of earth. Some with more abilities than others; depending on their ability to focus their consciousness. I will write about this soon.
