Im almost there!

So I have been meditating a lot for the past 2-3 weeks. Before I would meditate on and off and try to do an OBE just out curiosity, never really happened.
Right now I am trying to open my third eye and have been focusing on that a lot. So last night before I went to bed I turned off my lights and sat on the ground and meditate and focused on my breathing for about 10 minutes.
After that I decided to put on my headphones and this mp3 I found on the internet that people have been using as meditation music.
So a minute into listening to this and just focusing on the center of my mind I started to see all of my subconscious thoughts. Things going in and out, able to picture all of my subconscious thoughts clearly. It was the first time I meditated and saw something other than black.
So as I was meditating and seeing my subconscious thoughts, I could picture them but the color was vague so I kind of just added color into it myself, although it was still dark I could see this images of my thoughts...
After doing it for about 15 minutes I saw a bright light flicker ahead of me, more to the left of me though.... It disappeared, so I kept meditating. After a couple minutes it reappeared and kind of moved itself behind a dark... What seemed like a tall pillar/mountain. So I was like "wow... alright" and kept meditating. A few seconds later it came back into a more clear view, really bright, and it startled me.
It was one thing seeing my thoughts, it was another thing to actually view a bright light... After I saw it though... the startling really brought me back into the physical... I realized that I had numbed my body as I was sitting down... That has never happened before either... I was never able to meditate so deeply and relaxed... It was very nice...
I tried to continue meditating to view the light but couldnt... Then I decided to go to sleep.
It was nice.

Glad to hear you're getting somewhere with your meditating, wish I could keep it up for more than a few days.

Meditation and astral projection are actually two different practices, although with some similarities.

Fluent, you might post this over in the Astral Projection section of the forum and get more responses.

Oh no I am not trying to astral project or do anything in particular... I am working on myself now. I am just meditating to meditate and seeing if anything will come of it.

not sure where one thinks it is mentioned that Fluent was astral travelling ? I didn't notice a mention of this.

One can be deep in meditation and feel not in the physical without actually astral travelling.

i am glad to hear the good news cuz i am in the same boat as u my friend. i have been meditating for a good 3 weeks now every day and it is all starting to click. I am able to close my eyes as i sit down for brief moments and instantly get into a clear state of mind.

As you where mentioning the use of meditation music i am curious as to what you used. Currently i use iso-tones and bin aural beats to get me into meditative states. I read an article online that uses a treatment of alpha waves for the first 4 weeks (which i am currently still on) and the next 4 weeks use theta waves for deep meditative states

2012 Ascensions Harmonics by Jonathan Goldman is what I have been listening to frequently. Its a constant set of tones.

Im not sure exactly where I am wanting to be. I just have a feeling that I am almost there.

I'm glad you feel your explorations are deeper than before, so can only offer encouragement to you.

Peace.

It's crazy I stumbled upon this because I am also in a similar situation and I was thinking that my next meditation would be something special so I'm gonna try what you tried out tonight when I decide to meditate and let you guys know my results!
