Poltergeist Activity
This incident was described to me by my mother and it occurred in one of the bedrooms of the house where the spectral birds began appearing a few years ago (see the post on spectral birds). My mother decided to say some prayers in that particular room because she felt that the "energy was unsettled". After the prayer session, she locked up the room and proceeded with some household chores. A few hours later, she opened up the room to find the bed pillows strewn on the floor. She was the only person present in the house at that time and the room had been locked so none of her pet cats had been allowed access to the room.
We discussed the matter and could find no logical reason for the strewn pillows. I would dare to suggest that a poltergeist might have been involved although there were no young people resident in the house at that time. The prayers had obviously disturbed some extra-dimensional energy there. There were several strange occurrences associated with this particular room which I shall describe in upcoming posts.


Disappearing Acts
I have had two experiences of disappearing objects since moving into my apartment some years ago. The first incident involved a pair of turquoise earrings purchased on a trip to India. I had placed the earrings into a small, velvet-lined papier mache jewel box also purchased in India. A few days later, I began looking for the earrings but to no avail. No one had been in my apartment and I looked everywhere. I had even turned over my jewel boxes emptying the contents on a table out of frustration. There was nothing to be found.
I began to question my sanity in a light-hearted way. I let the matter go thinking that maybe I had lost them somewhere and began to focus on other matters in my busy life.
One day a few weeks later, I was going through the papier mache jewel box and lo...the earrings were there! Again, no one had been in my apartment because I live a very private life and I had checked this small jewel box several times in my frantic search. I was mystified but intrigued.
The second incident involved similar dynamics but this time the disappearing object was a tweezer. I looked everywhere where it could have fallen, several times but with no success. A few days later it appeared in the same area of the room where it had disappeared. I had searched there many times so one can imagine my shock to find the tweezer sitting conspicuously where anyone could have seen it at first glance.
I have no clues as to what was involved in these disappearances but I know that I had conducted thorough searches and no one one had been in my apartment. A small but significant paranormal experience perhaps?

Spectral Bird
One of my most mysterious experiences pertains to a spectral bird(s) that began manifesting and demanifesting at my mother's house several years ago. The phenomenon started a few months after the brutal murder of my 23 year old niece at her parents' home which is a long way from my mother's house.
I first saw the creature moving around in my bedroom one evening while I was seated in another room. But I thought little of it believing that it might be a bat that had lost its way. Weeks later in another visit I encountered the creature face to face about 6.30 pm as it manifested from nowhere and began flying around the room. I screamed for my mother who then told me that she had been seeing it regularly at nighttime. She was not fazed but intrigued because there was no open window or door which could have facilitated the entry of this creature from outside the house. What was even more strange was that it always showed in late evening or in the night long after most regular birds are sleeping.
The bird I first saw was a medium-sized dark brown creature with black opaque eyes. It did not flap its wings but glided around the room gracefully without any noise or panic reactions. Then after a few minutes it flew up to an old clothing cupboard where it simply disappeared out of sight. We looked all over but could find no physical exit point for this creature. In the months that followed I saw another spectral bird under similar circumstances. This one was black in colour and had tendency to fly menancingly towards me whenever I saw it in my room. These birds had the overall appearance of regular blackbirds except for the colour variation between the first bird I saw and the others which appeared in subsequent manifestations.The dynamics were the same...the bird manifested out of nowhere and demanifested just of our range of vision after a few minutes. Sometimes it would manifest on top of the old cupboard and then fly into the dark and disappear before our eyes. Sometimes it would disappear and reappear within a few minutes.

I was certain that these were not physical birds that had inadvertently flew in from outside.


BUTTERFLY:My mother claims to have seen a spectral bird with a butterfly one night about 11 pm.

BATS: I have seen spectral bats in another part of the house in the pre-dawn hours moving at an incredible speed. I have seen them manifest and demanifest in front of my eyes. On one occasion I saw a partial manifestion in my peripheral vision and I turned very quickly in that direction but I saw the materialisation was aborted and there was nothing to be seen afterwards.

It has been several months since we have had a manifestation and no one has been able to solve the mystery.
I am left to conclude that the house sits on a portal to another dimension and these creatures use the doorway to enter our 3D world at night.
If anyone has had experiences of this nature or might have an explanation please contact me urgently.


Scattered Stones
Some years ago I was living in this beautiful house. I kept one room as my meditation room with books and a little altar with pictures of Lord Ganesha, Mother Durga and Lord Vishnu. I would always keep it locked when I wasn't at home because I am a very private person. I recall one day that I left for work, locking my meditation room as always. In fact the entire house was locked that and no one could enter the premises until I returned. Upon my return home at about 6 pm, I unlocked the house and my meditation room. Much to my shock I found a medium sized stone inside the meditation room ( about 3" x 2") along with some smaller pebbles. These stones could not have been thrown from outside because all windows were also closed. Neither could anyone have pushed them under the door because they were too large to slip under the door. I even double checked to be certain that no one else had entered the house in my absence. I also some smaller pebbles strewn near the bathroom area. I cleaned up the area but remained perplexed as the cause of the phenomenon. I had no idea where the stones came from because there was no construction work being done anywhere.
A few weeks later I visited a psychic who may have shed some light on the dynamics of that interaction. He claimed that an "unclean spirit" inhabited the place and he even described it as being small in appearance with an unpleasant disposition. According to him this entity had occupied the place long before I moved in and it lived in "the middle room". The middle room was the room I designated as my meditation room! I had no reason to doubt his explanation because he told me about other facets of my life which were accurate.
Since then my life has changed significantly. I left that house years ago and I have stopped meditating and visiting psychics. I have taken another spiritual path in life but the experience has helped to broaden my spiritual horizons.



It's a Strange World
The following extracts are quoted from another exploratory site titled "Mysticalblaze@yahoogroups.com" on the topic of other dimensions.

The idea of another dimension - or MORE than one other dimension - has been theorized for many years, and is a cornerstone of many religions. Indeed, even Albert Einstein speculated about the possibility of the existence of a parallel universe. A scientific article entitled "The Universe's Unseen Dimensions," released in August, 2000, postulates that we may actually have scientific proof of other dimensions within the next 10 years! Psychics and paranormal researchers have long suspected one or more parallel universes, and have often speculated that there may be doorways or "portals" in certain areas that allow entities to travel into our dimension. These entities may be spirits, demons, extraterrestrials, or something we have never even imagined. Many old Indian burial grounds seem to act as portals, for reasons unknown, other than the Indians consciously located their burial grounds in places that they felt were close to the after-death realm.

One might wonder why we, as humans, don't seem to be able to pass through these doorways into other dimensions. It appears that the reason is that we are hindered by our physical bodies. However, in meditation or an astral projection situation, it does seem that we may have the capabilities to pass through and explore these realms....


Burning Issues
One night in April of last year, I decided to practice a deeper form form of meditation. I had obtained some CD's with Stuart Wilde's meditations and settled on the deep-level theta form using a metronome. I enjoyed the experience immensely and the seamless blending of realities was refreshing and relaxing. After years of being uninspired by TM and various other forms of alpha meditation, I decided to stay with this type of theta meditation.
However after just a few sessions I had a most shocking experience. I retired to bed one night shortly after a deeply satisfying session and woke up next morning with a burn on the side of my face in the form of a horseshoe. I was horrified and rushed to a dermatologist the same day to find out if I had an allergic reaction to something. She was adamant that it was no allergic reaction but a burn. Together we sat down and went through all of my activities the evening before but could no find no logical explanation for the situation. There was no one with me that night. We ruled out the possibility of animals incense burn, an electrical appliance or anything close to my sleeping space that could have caused that burn. There was only one logical explanation...the theta meditation. I was rather scared so I stopped the meditation sessions immediately and proceeded with protective prayers before falling asleep every night. Luckily there was no further incident of this nature and the burn mark began to fade but is still slightly visible on the right side of my face nearly one and a half years later.
I spent many months doing research and the only insight I could find as to why this occurred came from Brooks Alexander, senior researcher for the Spiritual Counterfeits Project based in California. He wrote:

"The fact is that no one knows how demonic beings operate in relation to psychic phenomena. Therefore it is impossible to say that "X" amount of psychic involvement (meditating in this instance) will result in demonic contact. We do not know where to draw the line between dabbling and demonism or between curiosity and commitment, nor do we know when that line is crossed...I would suggest that the neural and mental pattern set up by psychic involvement provides an interface with other forms of consciousness which are extradimensional and demonic in nature. In that case, then psychic dabbling is a little like entering the cage of a man-eating tiger. You may or may not be eaten, depending in part on how hungry the tiger is. The significant point is once you enter the cage, the initiative passes to the tiger."

In our discussions of spirit worlds, we should keep in mind that there are many dimensions and some are rather dark or demonic in nature while others are filled with all-encompassing light. Others may be neutral to man but we have no way of knowing the dangers associated with the gateways to these other realities.


Other Realities
Have you ever wondered about realities in other dimensions? More importantly, have you been experiencing other realities and spirit worlds through meditation, fervent prayer or even vivid dreams? Have you been experiencing small but significant miracles through prayer or unswerving faith? Have you been seeing spectral creatures such as birds and butterflies manifesting out of nowhere and then demanifesting into nothing? What about flashes or orbs of bright white light in your peripheral vision? Or maybe you have had disturbing encounters with indescribable elements?
I am not referring to fanciful new age fabrications, hallucinations from ayahuasaca, peyote and mushrooms or the polluted perceptions from narcotic drugs. This is a blog-sharing site for the genuine spiritual experiences of ordinary, well-grounded individuals. We are steering clear of airy new age practitioners, channellers, witches, mentally-unstable individuals and religious zealots prone to self-delusion.
The focus will be on genuine, but puzzling spiritual experiences that are not recognised or chronicled by the mainstream media, parapsychologists or even the priests of different religions. The key operative principle here is truth....please no fabrications, exaggerations, delusions, speculations or anything of that nature. Let us align ourselves with truth and fact because there is much to be learned about the changing nature of our 3D existence if we can avoid embellishments and deceiving elements.
I am convinced that there is something awesome happening beyond the range of everyday human consciousness. It would seem as if there is an overlapping or intermittent convergence of realities that is occurring more frequently with every passing moment.
If you are among the thousands of people who have been having unusual, difficult to explain spiritual experiences, this is the forum for you. Let us share and learn from each other as we put together the pieces of a mysterious cosmic puzzle that may hold the answer to our collective future.
