Hello

I have always been interested in OBE's but I never acted on it until today. I spent some time in Benin/Africa about 1 year and half ago. Benin is the birthplace of Voodoo. I have had the opportunity to see people fall in deep trance like states with voodoo drum rhythms. So I thought it would be a good choice of music to try my first OBE.

I relaxed...After a while I felt a sudden shift. even tough my eyes were still closed, I saw brighter with moving color/shadows.I felt my heart pounding to the point that I was scared I was getting a heart attack.I felt like I was on the verge of an OBE, my mind seemed clearer, I was very much aware of everything and most of my body felt numb.

Has the sensation got more intense. my heart pounded even more and the music seemed synchronized and louder.(I am not sure if the music just happened to be synced with my experience or I imagined it...)

Anyways, at that point I felt like I should wake up because the pounding got too intense. From what I read, some people say that the pounding can be a chakra and that it has nothing to do with heart beat. But, when I snapped out of it I felt my heart with my hand and it was beating rapidly. Can this be dangerous ?

Thank you
Matt
