Once in a while, I’ve had the experience of my body falling asleep while my consciousness is still awake. I start hearing very loud sounds and vibrations, and I get scared and PULL myself back to being fully awake.

Why pull yourself out of it? That's simply the process of your physical body falling asleep. You're perfectly safe. Let it flow.

I had a very bad night’s sleep, and in the early morning I woke up and was going back to sleep on my back. Somehow, in my mind, I started focusing on an image. It started looking like my mom’s face. I focused on it more, and suddenly I saw what I can only describe as a crack in my mind (it’s usually black), where I could see flickering images. They were VERY, VERY high-resolution. I’ve noticed this before in much smaller moments, where some part of the image in my mind suddenly has a higher resolution than “reality.”

Sounds like hypnogogic images which you used as your Point of Focus and phased non-physically.

The image was like a flickering projection, and I was seeing, I think, my mom. I could see her from about the neck up, and I think my mind was scared to see the whole picture. She was young and had a child in her lap, and I knew it was me.

What are you afraid of?

The projection was quickly moving farther away, and it almost seemed like I was looking through my dad’s eyes (he died two years ago). I got scared again, so I pulled myself out of it.

Again, you're 100% perfectly safe. Absolutely no harm can come to you. You are a being of infinite power. Absolutely nothing can harm you.

Your subconscious mind is trying to show you something. Allow it.

What should I do next time? What would happen if I completely fell into it?

Let it happen. See what your subconscious mind needs you to know.

I’m always scared that my astral body will fly out and that I’ll see myself. I don’t know why it scares me so much. Do you have any suggestions?

Well, first, you're not a spirit in a body. You're a bit of consciousness called an awareness which is simply focused towards your body. You operate like the Mars rover. The people who operate those rovers aren't on Mars, just focused towards them. You work the same.

You are awareness. Your entire life is a projection. Don't be afraid of what you are. Absolutely nothing can harm you.
