Mikhael: Phosphene and Out of body experience
Here is an experience that happened one morning around 5 o'clock: I woke up, and seeing the hour, I decided to go back to sleep. As I often do, I observed my visual chaos. It was very dense and bright and a small spherical yellow light appeared in the center of my field of vision. It was yellow like the first phase of the phosphene. This light slowly started to grow larger, reaching the size of a phosphene, and then filling my entire field of vision. I had the sensation that the light was coming towards me. Then, the light dissipated and I tried to open my eyes. I realized that I was in an intermediary state between wakefulness and astral projection and that I wasn’t able to perform « physical » actions. I remained calm, and then almost without transition I found myself in a fluffy grayish fog, conscious of being in a non-ordinary state. I remember thinking « I am in the lower astral plane » and I wasn’t able to do anything apart from remaining calm – which was for me an achievement in itself… And without any further transition, I “woke up”. I add the quotation marks because I consider that I had remained conscious during the whole experience. I have a very positive feeling regarding this experience – the spontaneous appearance of a phosphene was a wonderful moment.

Aurinko: early stages of astral projection (OOBE)
At one point, I entered an intense vibratory experience and suddenly I felt that my whole upper body was rising. I felt electric shocks in waves throughout my body and then my legs entered an OOBE by rolling to one side. I must say that the sensation was breathtaking and very physical (impossible to confuse it with a dream). I wasn’t able to leave my body entirely; I remained attached at my midsection and I entered back into my body. When caught up in the experience, one is very impressed by the physical sensations and even the noise….

I had the chance of participating in the August workshops, a particularly enriching experience. One week after the workshop, after regularly practicing sways and exercises with the Gyrascope: In bed, as I was falling asleep, I heard very low, powerful buzzing, alternating at a rhythm of 1/6th of a second, with a kind of crackling sound… I thought to myself:  “Here we go!”
Indeed! Within a fraction of a second, I found myself in the room next door; I then passed through the wall and found myself upside down. Extending my arm, I could feel the floor and its texture with my hand… I then tried to pass through another wall to my left, but there, I didn't succeed…
I then took the direction towards the ceiling and passed through it… I was flying and ascended higher and higher in the dark with hundreds of dots of light that shone like stars all around me. It was very beautiful.

After adding the correct manner of practicing mantras to the sways and rotations, I noticed a "cross" (a horizontal and a vertical line crossing) that appeared at the same time as the random bursts of light perceived after practice.
A nice dream of an out of body experience followed.
I was standing on my balcony (I live on the twelfth and last floor). A group of people passed along the road just down below, and it seemed to me that they were gathering there for a purpose. I jumped and floated towards them. To my great surprise, I saw that it was a group of students from the courses on Dr Lefebure's exercises. A child (a rather symbolic image) initiated us in the lateral sways. (And it was the first time that I had felt this sensation.) After that, a teacher who accompanied the child showed me the correct way to chant mantras using a large tree with notes tacked onto it…"
Since then, the little girl who was in the dream frequently accompanies me during dreams, whether conscious or not.
Moreover, the practice of mantras with sways has enabled me to perceive the colors in auras.

After 5 weeks of practicing static tensions for 20 minutes every evening (your course on astral out of body experiences). On the morning in question, I didn’t feel like sleeping any longer and I lazed in bed enjoying a relaxing moment. Suddenly, I had a feeling of torpor and vibrations that filled my entire body. I decided to wait and see what would happen. All of a sudden, I felt as if I were waking up somewhere else; not as if I had changed from one place to another, but as if my environment was changing.
I felt as if my feet were pulled and they started rotating. I felt like I was floating, losing consciousness slightly and I found myself in one of the rooms of my apartment. It felt as if it were part dream, part real life. I felt like I was in my bed and in the other room at the same time, as if I had transported my bed with me. It was unbelievable.

All week long, I had practiced vertical sways and ocular convergence; about two hours of exercise a day. That particular morning, I woke up at six o'clock and I didn’t feel like getting out of bed right away. I tried different positions to try to fall back asleep again. The more I tried, the less sleepy I felt …and after a while I started to get annoyed by the situation…I then lay on my back and started observing my visual chaos, to relax my mind and my nerves.

I could see vague blue clouds and tried to find a detail within them, I felt my body relax rather quickly, my thoughts went towards the infinitely small and fixed themselves on a small detail without much effort. The dot suddenly became very bright and I felt like I was moving forwards towards it. My field of vision seemed to acquire depth and I felt like I was going through a veil when my vision suddenly became clear. I was now within a galaxy, flying, full of happiness and calm.
I felt like I was rising and that my head was turning to the left to have a better view of this galaxy. The image of the galaxy was very sharp…I then mentally turned to the right and had the pleasure of seeing my room in its entirety with its furniture, plants, etc…bathed in this galaxy.
It was wonderful….
Thanks to you Daniel.

The tests I made to verify the reality of the effects of phosphenic practice have proved to me that it is true. I usually get up at 4 am and start work at 5 am. My job consists of driving cars around a track with 15 minute pauses. I work in the countryside and watch the sun rise (Beautiful!).
After doing a few phosphenes, I rested for the usual 15 minutes; I use this time to doze and catch up on lost sleep. Subjectively, that period of time felt like one to two hours, if not more. I had visions and heard unknown sounds. I felt my body become lighter. I heard mischievous laughs and felt the presence of the energies of nature.
I then had the sensation of rising higher and higher. Then it all stopped and slowly my body felt heavier, denser. I opened my eyes again but without the impression of waking up, as I don’t consider that I had fallen asleep at any time. Since then, my fear of death has diminished as I have come to the conclusion that I visited the astral planes. I am not interested in the worlds beyond; my spiritual search is to discover my purpose on this planet. Nonetheless, I remain marked by what I experienced.

Since I have been practicing phosphenism, I have experienced out of body phenomena several times during the day, while I was completely awake.
This is usually a partial out of body experience and concerns only the upper and lower limbs.

The first time, the phenomenon occurred after a session of Gyrascope while I was lying down: I felt my limbs detach themselves from the rest of my body and rise above it. At the same time, my double was stretched out to become huge and I felt as if my body were separating in two with a large gap at the level of my pelvis. Then, little by little, my body gently came back together again. These phenomena of out of body experience of the limbs now happen on a regular basis, whether during practice with the Gyrascope or in bed during the evening, when I go to sleep. Only the moments of calm and relaxation permit such kinds of experiences. On one occasion though, I had a rather curious experience that I would qualify as an out of body experience. One evening, after finishing a session of practice with the Gyrascope, I was sitting at my desk when, in a sudden and brutal manner but without any pain, my double shifted from my physical body approximately six feet (2 meters) to my left. It came back straight away, as suddenly and brutally it had left, as if bound by powerful springs or elastic bands. All this lasted less than a second but the brutality and speed of the phenomena were very impressive. I had the feeling my body was not ready to let my double leave it behind and suddenly called it back.
All these results are very encouraging for continuing and they confirm all the work and research carried out by Doctor Lefebure on Phosphenism.

The green seaweed.
Since I have been practicing phosphenic exercises, I have had countless experiences of astral travelling. Here is one that I would like to share with you.
I will first describe the exercise I practiced. Lying on my back after having done a phosphene, I imagined a green whirlpool inside the phosphene, a color matching the first phase of the phosphene. I induced a movement of rotation in this image, at a rhythm of one rotation per second. Duration of the exercise: 20 minutes.
The rhythm of one second being the reference for physical and terrestrial time, I set the Mantratron on one second as advised by Doctor Lefebure.
I work as a lifeguard, and during my time off I like to scuba dive and explore the depths of the Mediterranean coast. I practice apnea diving (with flippers, no oxygen bottle) and I love admiring the small colored fishes found along the rocky coast. (This, of course, is on a physical level.)
One night after touring the depths and having practiced the previously mentioned exercise, a very beautiful experience occurred. I found myself totally awake and fully conscious, observing tropical fishes in the depths of coral reefs and in addition (and above all) I had the feeling of being ONE with the element "water".
It is a strange sensation to feel one's consciousness merging with the molecules of water.
A long life to you Daniel.
Thanks for your work of preserving the works of Doctor Lefebure enabling enthusiasts like me to have access to the discoveries of this genius.

My experiences begin with a sound, like a buzzing that passes from on ear to the other. When I focus my attention on it, the sound becomes continuous and I feel like I am being sucked up. The experience starts.
I see shapes within my visual chaos; when I focus on one of them, I have a sensation of speed, as if I am chasing this shape.
Recently, I had a very pleasant experience. In the evening, I had practiced lateral head sways. As I was falling asleep, I heard a sound that went from one ear to the other. It was like a breath of air that passed through me and I felt a vibration. It was a very pleasant sensation and I let myself be carried along. I stopped myself from reacting to it.  I felt as if I were drawn into my field of vision with a sensation of speed and motion when a shape outlined in light stopped in front of me. It looked like an angel, and he made movements with his hands as if he were greeting me. I thanked the angel, and just to see what would happen, I asked him to show me wondrous lands. This being of light flew away and the darkness opened like a vanishing mist to unveil a magnificent sun. Its rays of light were very soft to the eyes and pink bubbles came out of it and in my direction; I had a sensation of bursting when they touched me. Then, I realized I was in the sea, but with the sensation that my body was really there. I slapped the water with my hands; I felt all the sensations of touch. The mist slowly covered the light again. I was flying close to the water and could see the reflection of the sun on it.
The next day, all day long, I had a feeling of complete well-being. This released me from a lot of parasitic thoughts. Sometimes, I had the sensation that I could not feel my body, although I knew I was still here.
So, I hope that I have used the right words because it is difficult to describe and say exactly what one feels.
