I have been continuing my work with the sleep state. Using the ten-one
technique, I give myself the suggestion:
"You will now relax, go to sleep, and leave the physical. Immediately upon awakening,
you will picture a large, white, blank screen and remember all you can conciously accept."
It is morning. I relax and concentrate, with my pad and pen in hand. I see
clearly, a newspaper advertisement. It is an announcement of some kind, a grand opening. A local club is going
to be opening up on a particular date. I can plainly see the name of the establishment, the opening date, the address,
and the type of club. It is a rock and roll club that will be having live music, including local, regional,
and national bands.
Suddenly, I'm flooded with information and insights, concerning this local business.
It will be most favorable for me to visit and even frequent this club. There are numerous social and spiritual
implications involved. I see cyclic or a circle of activity. I perceive, I have much to gain by being involved
with this establishment.
After this, I see a list of ten names. All of these individuals are past acquaintances and
many of them are close friends I have not seen for many years. I have no clue as to where they may be residing or
where they are now. I take notes and write down the list of names.
Later that morning, I go out and get the local newspaper. As I'm leafing through it, I
see the very same ad for the very same club I had foreseen earlier. I am barely able to contain my excitement. How could
I have known the exact name, place, and date beforehand, unless I became aware of it during my previous sleep state?
This information alone, could have authenticated my previous work with the ten-one technique. But at it turned
out, this will only be the beginning.
I make arrangements with a friend of mine to visit the club for their grand opening. It's
certainly nothing fancy. This a small, midwestern town. The storefront is a brick facade, large picture window,
with the usual posters and advertisements adorning it. The interior has soft lighting, ceiling fans, a long rectangular
bar to the right of the room and a small, raised stage at the back.
There is a band setting up and we chat with the bartender and other employees. Around
this time, I notice I know some of the members of the local band, as they mull around the stage. I introduce myself
and talk with them for a while. Soon afterward, I meet the owner of the establishment. Out of the blue, he asks
me if I would like to work as a stagehand, part-time. Of course, I accept.
Over time, I reunite with numerous friends whom I have not seen for many years
Eventually, I run into every single person on my previous list! Over time, I encounter many wonderful reunions
and experiences. I will always have very fond memories of this club and this short interval in my life. After
about a year, the club went under financially and closed down, never to reopen.
How could I have had previous knowledge of all of this. The whereabouts of these
ten people were completely unknown to me. I didn't try to contact them in any way. What are the odds of my meeting all
of these individuals, at this particular place? Many of these individuals, I found out from talking to them, had previously
left the state and resided hundreds of miles away, only to be visiting at this time!
So what did this experiment and this experience reveal? There must be a definite connection
between sleep and everyday conciousness. It's quite likely we experience numerous activities during the sleep state.
Certainly, my experiment with the ten-one technique here was confirmed. I was able to ascertain very specific information
with this premonition. I even took notes and over a course of time, I validated every detail revealed to me.
