Over the last couple of months, when I have an OBE and leave my physical house, I find myself in what appears to be a small quaint city. It doesn’t always seem to be the same city. They all seem a little different with the exception that they all feel very small like there are only a few hundred inhabitants. These inhabitants always seem to be congregating in the middle of the city. They are not small towns like in the old West where there is one main dirt street with public and private wooden dwellings on both sides. It’s more like a square or circular city reminiscent to the kind you might find back East a couple hundred years old with buildings made of stone or brick.

I always see many inhabitants. I feel like I’m somewhere in the middle of the city which appears to have a public civic center with monuments, small buildings, and some private dwellings nearby. It usually seems like its dark outside, but I have experienced being in these cities during daylight. I tried spinning around as fast as I could to increase my vibration rate like OutOfBodyDude recommended. It didn’t seem to do anything or change my surroundings. I then asked for a Helper to appear. No one showed up and I didn’t feel the presence of anything. I don’t remember having a mission in mind like to retrieve someone when I tried to summon a Helper.

Next, I either had a spontaneous desire to look for a Helper or maybe I just remembered that the next time I had an OBE I should go talk to one of the inhabitants. This was recommended to me a couple weeks ago on the conversation board. I had only tried to communicate with one of these inhabitants one time before without success. The person I was trying to communicate with seemed afraid of me and I probably scared it because I was chasing it around.

Anyway, I noticed a two-storey building with outdoor seating on the second floor with many people sitting outside. I approached the building which seemed like a restaurant and randomly floated up the outside of the building to the second floor and came face to face with a short dark skinned man with black hair sitting at a table with an older light skinned man with gray hair. I probably interrupted their discussion when I asked the dark skinned man if he was a Helper or if he knew how I could find one. He was not shocked or did not seem to think I was out of my mind. He just smiled and seemed to understand what I meant. He also seemed like he knew a lot more about what was going on in this place than I did.

I remember thinking for some reason that he couldn't be my assigned Helper because I just randomly came up to him and also because he was a different race than I was. It seems funny thinking about it now. He looked like he was Eastern Indian or Persian. But I thought I would just play along and see what he had to say. I can't remember the conversation other than he didn't give me a definitive answer as to whether he was a Helper or not. But he did seem to know something I didn't and was not shocked by my questions or upset that I interrupted him.

The three of us started walking or moving away from the restaurant on the ground level and I started talking to the man with gray hair. I sort of forgot about the Indian man and was completely focused on the older man. I asked him something like, "Are you dead or are you still in the physical and dreaming or having an OBE?" He wasn't shocked by my questions and responded with something like he wasn't sure. As we continued walking (not to far from the restaurant), we came upon a house which I understood the man with the gray hair lived in. I asked him how long he has lived in this city and he said 5 1/2 months. I then asked him how long has he lived in this very nice house and he said for 1 month. He seemed to be not quite sure of his answers and was sort of questioning what he said. I said something to the effect of, “Well you might want to think about that and consider if you may have died.” I smiled and he smiled back and I left.

My memory is a hazy on exactly how and why we parted and also what happened to the Indian guy who I thought was more aware of what was going on than the two of us. I can't remember if the Indian guy was with us when we walked over to the older guy's dwelling. Could this have been a possible retrieval that I was unaware of? I never consciously set my intent on a retrieval, but I have in the past when practicing Focused Attention exercises.

This is the first time I can remember communicating with any inhabitants I've seen when I find myself in these small cities or locales. These little towns I find myself in right after I leave my house all seem a little bit different. There always seems to be a public city center with some small buildings where people socialize and surrounding the center seem to be private dwellings.

Does anyone have any idea where I might be or what this experience could mean? I don’t understand why I keep gravitating to these areas. Could they be belief systems? Maybe a physical or astral realm close to the Earth plane? Could I be communicating with people who are alive and dreaming? I will continue to try and communicate with the inhabitants I see and ask for guides or helpers. I have asked a few times and so far, no one has appeared and told me they are my official guide or helper.

Thanks

Hi

I went too far with that statement above.  What I meant was that we tend to take our Earth habits with us into Afterlife realms.  The Afterlife runs on quite different principles from Earth life, particularly regarding how important PUL is.

IMO we're allowed to go into the Afterlife as a reminder of what is ultimately important.

That sounds pretty interesting, but why couldn't he have been your helper because of the difference in race? Just curious.

Supermodel,

Have you met any guides, helpers, conscious workers, etc.? If so, how would you describe their appearance and do they always appear the same or do they ever change their appearance.

Do they always appear when you summon them? Must you always have a mission in mind (e.g., retrieval) before you try asking for a Helper? Or, can you summon one without any intent to accomplish a specifice task, but instead just to have a conversation to learn more about the afterlife?

Pardon me for my ignorance, but I have not been successful in encountering any Helpers during my brief OBE's or Phasing (Focused Attention) retrieval exercises.

What method do you use to explore the non-physical (OBE, Phasing or Focused Attention)?

Thank you

Sincerely,

Dave
