Thanks for the great link Augoeideian. There were many interesting and pertinent things to consider there. I have also wondered at times about the parallels between the macrocosm and the microcosm. There are many parallels and symbological links to all forms of life at all levels and sizes... "So as above, so below ("So as everywhere... so as everywhere"). I remember a post awhile back where we were all discussing various parallels between the mechanics of this physical world of ours and that of the spiritual planes. Parallels such as the umbilical cord at birth representing/symbolizing the silver/ethereal cord attatchment to our physical vessels while physically incarnate, or the cycles a caterpillar goes through prior to becoming a  butterfly and how that relates to the cycles we go through as spiritual beings inhabiting a human body: Larva -- Human; Cocoon -- Physical Death; Butterfly in Flight -- Release of the Soul; or how about our exit from the birth canal as a baby (heading from darkness to light) and our exit through the tunnel/vortex as our physical life comes to an end (headed towards light)... (This parallel may not be as pertinent to those who were born via cesarian, but still noteworthy nonetheless!).

These symobological parallels may very well reach into the outer echelons of the physical universe and within the holographic multidimensional reality that we so lovingly find ourselves in.

LOL! Reading others peoples' replies with all of the shared ideas and experiences helps to create even more ideas, concepts, and possible experiences... (the cycle repeats.) It's this sharing and growing through interaction with others; self-searching; asking questions; living answers; making the unknowns known and expanding the reaches of the unknown, that gives the journey of conscious exploration its very definition. In relating symbols it seems that we are all artists at work here, with light as our paintbrush; sometimes it's in order to borrow paint from other peoples' palettes!

"I like the idea of raw energies, and how often we refer to beings of "light"..and "energetic bodies"..so some kind of shifting from this sort of "heavy matter" into something else would certainly be a big part in explaining that humming/vibrational shifts we've been talking about."

I completely agree with you KarmicKiss. Thanks for sharing your experiences with this. Much appreciated.

"My theory was that as we lose attachment to the three dimensional embodiment of this world, we tend to take on another dimension, like something dropping through a "black hole" into hyperspace, and as we move into this the rest of the world seems to be progressively more distant, as if we are rising, or it is falling away along the increasing span of the newly added dimension. I wonder if this correlates as well for your experiences as mine."

I totally agree with you Chuckles and Dave, it may very well be part and parcel to a shift of dimensional perception; shifts in vibration from heavier to finer and the aftereffects therein; results of the transformation into our natural states of/as raw conscious energy/beings of light and taking on those foreign yet familiar perceptual changes.

"A number of years ago I woke up one night, saw a slowly rotating tunnel that appeared in a pattern that included the color gold and sort of reminded me what you would see on a Tibetan Buddhist poster (Is tanka the correct word?). I heard a cosmic ohm as I saw this. The ohm didn't start when I started to see the tunnel. It seemed like the ohm always existed. It had a sound that was beyond what a human voice could create."

Interesting that you mentioned that "ohm" sound. Did it remind you at all of Gregorian chants or the meditation "ohm". I remember my father telling me that during one of his NDE he heard that "ohm" sound while traveling through the tunnel towards the Light and that it felt to him as being a sort of guide post leading him through the tunnel towards Light. He also said that it was beyond what a human voice could create, but not in those exact words. He said that the music that he heard while "out there" was unlike anything he had ever heard while on Earth... He said that it was incomprehensible in beauty and that it came from nowhere and yet everywhere simultaneously; he said that it just was, as was he.

Thanks to all for sharing, and I look forward to hearing more!

I don't know what a Gregorian ohm sounds like. It sounded more Tibetan, but wasn't made by a human voice. It sounded deep, strong, continuous, and cosmic.
