19960929_-_Coast_to_Coast_AM_with_Art_Bell_-_Albert_Taylor_-_OBEs

Al Taylor, author of Soul Traveler, details out-of-body experiences (OBEs) and sleep paralysis, asserting that 99% of people nightly undergo these states while only 20% remember them. He describes the IST technique involving waking at 1:30 AM to separate consciousness from the body, noting that fear often triggers negative sensations like buzzing or falling, whereas calmness allows travel to any location or healing of ailments like his own multiple sclerosis. Addressing callers' stories of entities and nightmares, Taylor argues these are thought forms or guardian guides rather than demons, emphasizing that OBEs are natural, non-dangerous phenomena accessible without drugs, ultimately suggesting humans are evolving spiritually through this pure consciousness travel.

Cruise Details Coming Up! 00:04:07
unidentified
Welcome to our ball somewhere online.
Tonight featuring Coastal Coast AM on September 25th, 1996.
From the high desert in the great American Southwest, I did all baby.
Two points as the case may be across all these many very time zones from the Hawaiian and Caitian Islands swiftly moving eastward across this great land of the Caribbean and the U.S. Virgin Islands and some other Caribbean islands, then on now into South America, North to the Pole, and worldwide on the internet.
This is Coast to Coast AM, live on the screen talk radio, on my lawn.
This was in the category of you asked for it, so now you're going to get it.
And I've been hard at work ever since I've been getting these myriad of unrelenting sleep paralysis calls.
I've got it too.
It's been going on for days.
So, tonight, Al Taylor, Albert Kill, author of something called Soul Trapper.
A man who from a very early age himself experienced death-like night paralysis.
And he researched it, and he knows what it is, and he's going to talk to you about it tonight.
So in the category of you ask for it, here it comes.
We'll get all of that shortly.
Let me do a couple of things right up front, and if you'll get it in mind, get penciled.
The waiting is over.
I'm going to tell you about the cruise coming up next year and how to get in on it in just a few moments.
And you will need to listen to one for presidents for video shows.
We know social office necessary to enjoy our new mobile site.
See you visit CoastingCoza.com on your email for Andrew Possible.
Screening, the authorship coaching service of Coastal Coast AM has a new name.
Coast inside.
You'll still get all the same great features for the seven load box.
Just get news in today.
We send it up for one of you.
For RJP 5000, which offers the beginning of the hour of shows downloaded automatically to overview your MVP and the alpha net with live and on-demand programs.
You'll also get our amazing one-mode library of three millions of shows.
Just think, as a new subscriber, over 1,000 shows will be available for you to collect the JMSV at your leisure.
Plus, you'll get screened on demand by months of our fellow Sunny Zone Johnson and two weekly processes.
And remember, you have access to our Monday live channel session with Georgia and social buses.
If you want that work, you won't want to be without Coast Insider.
Visit CoastingCoose AM.com and summer today.
Even though I think the middle class is being put in the way, because most people are doing relatively okay, we haven't seen that balance of power shift yet.
If that gets higher, I think we got a little bit of a government being supported with this cold now, rising up well, people are sharing their rush ratios.
October 2nd: Athens, Greece 00:06:27
unidentified
We're looking at our very short cars to get over.
Well, we take you on to the other September 20th, 1986, on our way.
Thank you.
This is night one, and this is your opportunity.
And I have had now many years of cruises going to exotic locations, and trust me.
This one takes the cake.
We're going to leave the United States next October 1st.
In other words, a little over a year from now.
But because of the prices that we're going to be able to get for you, and they are very, very good prices, we're doing this far ahead of time.
Far ahead of time.
Now, we were due to take another tour, but you know I wanted to see the pyramids, so I'm talking to you another tour.
This is a winner.
Believe me.
So we leave the U.S., bound for Athens, Greece, on October 1st.
October 2nd, we arrive in Athens, Greece.
And there, we transfer from the airport to Holland America's extremely luxurious ship.
We know all about Mazda because we went on Mazdan last on 12 o'clock.
And of course, you can arrive in Athens a day or two free early if you want to spend a lot of time in Athens.
October 3rd, we get the first full day at sea.
And you will love it there.
You get a photograph of me trying to smile and welcome to the board party and so forth and so on.
October 4th, we arrive in Alexandria, Egypt, or Cairo.
And there, there is an actual shore tour excursion which goes straight to Giza and the pyramids.
You'll be able to descend 100 steps into the center of Chiops, the largest of 35,000-year-old pyramids.
You may also visit the interior of two other pyramids, and of course the famed Sphinx just off to the side.
So this is my baby.
I've been wanting to go there and we're going.
Now October 5th, we go to Jerusalem, Israel.
And I'll be telling you a lot more about all of this.
And the whaling along, you know, we'll do everything that you want to do when you get to Israel.
And then October 6th, to Haifa, Israel.
October 7th is back at sea and you'll be glad to get back at sea and the wonders of the Empress Mazza.
October 8th, we go to Rhodes, Greece, one of the most popular islands, Greek islands.
And I'll tell you more about these.
October 9th, Tottenham's Greece, another Greek island, and then yet October 10th, another Greek island, Crete.
You ever made Crete?
Have you heard about Crete over there?
October 11th, we go to one final stop on the mainland of Greece.
And I'm joined by, I can pronounce it, it's N-A-V-P-L-I-O-N.
And I would slaughter it if I tried, so I won't.
Then we got another day at sea.
Then we are in Naples, Italy, and we get to go visit the city that was buried, Pompeii, the ancient city of Pompeii, the Isle of Capri.
And then we end up, and I'm skipping through this very quickly, we end up in Rome, Italy.
So I'm telling you, this is going to be the cruise of a lifetime, or ten lifetimes.
And it's all on the Mazan.
Now listen, if you're interested in coming along, I'm going to give you the phone numbers right now, and you need to begin calling in the morning at 8 o'clock through 6 o'clock Pacific time.
From 8 o'clock in the morning through 6 o'clock Pacific time.
Now don't wait.
Do not wait.
I warn every year about this.
Every year it fills up.
And that's it.
You know, we get to get pulled up, and that will happen again this year.
And this is going to be the cruise of the lifetime.
We're going to the pyramids and much more.
And so we'll see how many.
But I'm telling you, trust me on this, you can't wait.
You've got to get going now.
I know it's a year away and it's not that far away.
But we're doing this very intentionally, early, so that we can get enough of you with us and so that we don't fill up too early.
But inevitably, that's exactly what occurs.
It has every single year.
So we'll get those numbers on later.
I just wanted to get you the information that the incredible, I'm going to call it the terrorist war.
We touched this fire terrorist hot in the Mid-East and OG.
We're going to Greece and to the pyramids, of course, in Egypt and the Greek islands and Italy and Israel.
And so I'm calling it the terrorist war.
For those who are not afraid to live life a little bit, there's danger in all of life, right?
And it hasn't stopped me yet.
I think the Communist turned I've been to what is supposed to be non-communist Russia.
Ha ha ha ha.
And on that floor, by the way, Boziovsky won't have his operation on for a while because he's not strong enough.
The power struggles going on over here right now.
And so there's that.
The debate over the debts continues.
Something's Going On Out There 00:03:03
unidentified
There is significant trouble in Israel where Palestinians seem bent over the Israelis, seem bent on battling each other once again, seven dead to this hour in continuing battles, and that pretty much covers the news now.
Over the past, what would you guys say about a week?
Somebody brought up sleep paralysis.
It was like a snowball going downhill.
I can't stop.
I was unable to stop the cross.
Something's going on out there.
I've heard of sleep paralysis.
I'm not sure it's been around as long as we have, but this many people experiencing it indicates that something profound is going on.
So I was compelled to bow to the audience and say, okay, let's find out about it.
Here's the guy who will tell us about it.
He is Al Taylor.
And as I said, from a very early age, he experienced what he calls death-like night paralysis with extremely lucid dreams.
His grandfather called him witch rides.
These witch rides progress actual out-of-body experiences, ODEs, astral projection, whatever you want, or flying in the mind to distant places, traveling beyond our physical plane, spirit encourages psychic insights and healing.
He's an engineer, a scientist, and an artist.
He relates to experiences with great insight and some humor.
You've got to have a sense of humor about things, folks.
How these paranormal events have impacted his personal growth, relationships, all of this explains how the reader can experience an ODE step by step.
I've been scared to death of it.
A good friend of mine, as you know, is Daniel Brinkley, who said of Soul Traveler, which is a name of Hubbard's book.
Quote, Albert Taylor's adventures into the other dimensions affords us a way to look at life, expand, laugh some, search our soul zone, find ways to believe.
He's a must-read.
And I'm sure it does sound like it, doesn't it?
So, let us, by the way, his engineering background includes work on SDI, a real hardware kind of guy.
He was involved in NASA's International Space Station program.
So he has a serious background.
Presently working in computers, owns a company called Phoenix Computer Systems, and is some ways or another in Southern California right now.
Sleep Paralysis Revelations 00:07:03
unidentified
Here is Albert Taylor.
Albert, are you there?
Yep, I am.
Well, welcome to the program.
Thank you very much.
It's great to have you.
And I can't tell you, Albert, you just, you wouldn't leave the calls that I've been getting.
Last week, sometime toward the end of the week, it began with somebody called sleep paralysis, and I couldn't stop the calls.
I go, oh, really?
Not everybody who feels it, Albert, thinks it's wonderful and great.
That scares the hell out of him, actually.
Yeah, that very much thought.
So I think a good place to begin some people and somebody on the other side can explain what it is medically.
Now, if you go to a doctor, and you say, Doctor, I wake up and I appear to be conscious.
I can hear things, I can see things, but I can't move.
Doctor, it gets terrifying.
What's happening to me?
What is a doctor probably going to tell you?
Well, since I've already done that exactly the same thing, I can tell you what my doctor said.
And first of all, I had to try to figure out how to tell her.
And I thought it kept going through my mind before she entered the office.
Well, Doc, you know, I lose control of my body at night, and I thought I thought I progression.
Well, you know, Doctor, I have concerns about being paralyzed, but back off by paranoia.
But I had to figure out how to pick up a doctor.
And she came in and she examined me, and I'm, you know, giving me a little hammer and things like that, and I'm going to have a half a bit.
You know, Doc, at night, when I go to sleep, I'm not during the middle of the night.
I wake up, and I feel completely paralyzed.
And I'm wondering if I put down a neurological problem.
And she smiled, and she looked at me, she told me about, she said, that happens to me all the time, and I'm okay, but you don't feel okay.
And I was again, and that was like the extent of it.
She didn't offer up any actual medical explanation.
dr albert taylor
Not at all.
unidentified
Not at all.
I can say that I have heard a lot of medical explanation.
Oh, I heard that during the night there's a chemical that's released in the body that paralyzes the body so that you don't act out your dreams.
And I work, if you're dreaming or writing or something, you don't jump up and run out of the room.
That's what I heard.
Uh I've also heard doctors say grandma seizure.
Uh yeah, yeah, I I think I I've heard that.
And then I've heard sleep apnea.
You know, that that I think is where you uh you can sometimes uh skip heartbeats, something like that.
You mean stop breathing for a few seconds.
Uh that's right.
That's easy.
You know, like and people who snore a lot, that sort of thing.
Right.
Um so I've I've heard all those medical explanations and I knew that's what a doctor would have to say.
Right.
Somebody last night said, well what is your mother?
Well that's what a doctor is going to say at best.
Uh I wonder if the truth is that they don't really exactly know.
I think that that is exactly it.
And you know, when you talk about my paralysis um you're only talking about the peak of the iceberg because that's just the beginning.
See the doctors that you may be able to try to explain away why a person is paralyzed in the middle of the night, but then as the OBD continues or extra um out of body experience continues, they can't explain what's going on going on after that.
So when they explain to me why I can go to persons that have never been physically and identified them and looked at what's going on here was 100% accurate.
When did this sleep paralysis begin for you?
Well, it started when I was about five years old.
And see, my family is from the South.
And in the South they have a lot of superstitions.
I'm from my house myself.
In the South of California?
Well, I'm in New York.
Yeah, I was back in the South.
And my grandmother, she had the paralysis also, and so did her mother.
And there was the superstition was that the witches or witches would come and lie at you at night.
And that's why you felt paralyzed.
The witches?
You're the witches already.
So needless to say, I wouldn't wake up in the middle of the night and go running into my grandmother's room for comfort.
And I would say, Grandma, I couldn't move last night.
I felt paralyzed.
And she'd pat me on the head and said, wonderful, killed the witches alighting you last night.
Were you, I heard so many people describing me on the radio, were you awake, uh, conscious or in some new ground or not conscious or when this would occur?
I would say I was almost in a superconscious state where I was very, very much alert, very, very much aware that I was laying in my bed.
I could see the moon very clearly, and I was laughing, so that was an interesting fact, because the room should have been worried about just looking out of my normal eyes, and I could hear perfectly anything that was going on in the room.
All your senses, all your other senses, even the senses, so everything normal, everything normal, everything normal.
And that's what's so terrifying about it, because you actually feel as if there's something wrong with you, because you feel like you're normal, except you can't move your body.
And it's scary.
Another thing that occurs during the paralysis that people have problems with is you feel like you can't breathe either.
So you have a shallow breath.
Oh, that's a that's a panic situation.
Yeah, well you begin to panic.
You also sometimes people describe it as the heavy.
So you feel like your chest is very, very heavy.
Or like someone's something that's pushing you down into the bed.
But that's almost the symptom of a heart attack, isn't it?
No, because it's not painful in any way, shape, or form.
I mean, if the people are my class will say it feels like there's a fist pressing you on their chest.
Well, but that sounds painful to me.
I'm not talking about a painful heaviness.
I'm just talking about extreme gravity.
All around.
Not in not just in your chest.
Everywhere.
Yeah, like you're going through two or three genes.
That's like acceleration.
A lot of other times during the problem, people feel like they're falling backwards or falling through the bed.
And sometimes I can't start causing people to catch themselves and actually wake up out of the choralis.
Exactly.
Exactly.
That's happening.
Oh yes, that has happened.
I would have to know.
I've been touring all up and down California on our book tour, and I ask this question all the time.
The first thing I ask is have anyone talked to parallels at night, and you would be surprised that I would say at least 40% of the audience rate burned.
No, I wouldn't.
It happens a lot.
Okay, there's something that I want to ask you about.
Now, I was shocked.
I mean, really shocked at the number of calls that I'm getting.
Now, I suppose this has been going on forever, but arguably something seems to be going on now where there is more of this paralysis business.
New Age Revelations 00:04:20
unidentified
Like, are you sensing that?
Yes, definitely.
Now, I think it may be one of two reasons.
The first reason is that now we're in a new age, as we call it, and we moved from an occult tackle to a category, which was very frightening to people and then had heirs of the devil or demon worship to a new age, which is real, rosy, and nice.
And people can come out of the cloud of those people and talk about these things that are happening to them more freely.
So that may be one reason.
You think it's just because people are not afraid to talk about it.
Exactly.
I found that in my own family.
Once I started writing my book, Gold Traveler, people in my own family that I've known all my life were now starting to come to me and tell me, you know, I haven't even experienced anyone anymore.
All right, well, when we come back, we're going to start to talk about what this really is.
So stay right there for a moment.
We'll be back to you.
My guest is Al Taylor.
The book, Soul Traveler.
The website can action on my web right now.
Go check it out.
www.ardell.com.
We'll be right back.
USD World Bowl Summer Five on Google Radio Networks.
Tonight, I'll presentation on Coastal Coast AM from September 25th, 1996.
Tell me about Coastal Ghost AM from September 25th, 1996.
Sleep paralysis.
It may be a bit more than you imagine.
My guest is Albert Taylor.
Al Taylor.
He wrote Soul Traveler.
Let me give you a hint about where we may be going.
He'll be back to him in a moment.
We took you back to September 25th, 1996.
Back now to Al or I don't know, should they call you Albert or Al?
Al It Shall Be Al.
Um I know um so many people have shared this experience with you, and I have felt uh our beginnings of it, um but I'm a kind of a control freak and it's here they're kind of me and when I have felt it I have always thought it like crazy, I mean I'm right for my life and it goes away exactly.
Now I got some other calls, then the other calls start to come in and people say, hey look, um I put my hand down or my hand felt like it was falling through the bed and others have said I felt myself rise out of my body and these are people who let it go, right?
Fear of the Unknown OBE 00:15:04
unidentified
And I don't know if I could ever do that.
I mean that's really something it's like putting trust somewhere and I don't know how to do that.
Well the biggest thing that I found is fear.
Yeah, people are fear of that fear of the unknown.
Sure.
And because it feels very discomforting, I mean with the breathing, the paralysis and all of that, you know, it has to make people hold on.
I can tell you that through the experiences that I've had, and I also teach this done at the Learning Light Foundation in Amazon.
Oh, you do?
Yeah, I do have teacher a weekly class, every Thursday, 12, 12 weeks, and all of that.
But what I found out is that, and once you first of all find out what it is, and then I've worked with a lot of people, I've talked with hundreds of people, they not only stop dreading this paralysis, but they actually start looking forward to it.
They become enthusiastic about it, hoping they have a good night.
Really?
And you know what that you think about this is that it has nothing to do with your age.
I mean, my fish-year-old son experiences it, and my 24-year-old mother experiences it.
And what's interesting about my 24-year-old mother, she has this paralogue practically all her life too.
But only about 40 years ago, I shared with her what was going on, and she used some of the techniques that I listed in my book.
And the very first time she tried it, she had an out-of-body experience.
A wonderful one-you know.
Let's start with this.
Are there any dangers?
Okay, actually, that's a quick question that I get all the time.
Um and they wake up and say, can anything happen to me?
Can someone come over and take over my body?
And the answer to that is no.
Uh well, I was thinking more like, might I die?
No.
No.
And, you know, and see, this is what a lot of people don't know, is that 99% of us experience out-of-body experiences, our out-of-body experiences, every night, but only 20% of us remember.
You know, a lot of people also die in their sleep.
That's true, that's true.
But everybody has an out-of-body experience, but you know, I mean, if you take 100 people at night, and 100 people come back to the room, there's very few chances of any night being dead at that time.
I mean, everybody experiences, but only a few remember it.
And what I've done with my classes and my techniques is I've increased it to about 50%.
So all you're doing is remembering what you do normally at night.
And it's a very natural, it's not something new, that you're you're you're stepping into a new area.
It's just becoming aware of something you already do.
Right.
When I stop breathing, you already breathe.
Now that you become aware of it doesn't mean you're going to die.
But take me, for example.
I work all night long and I sleep during the day.
Just to see these different parts of the day.
And I, when I go to sleep, I want to sleep.
And frankly, sometimes when I've had very vivid dreams, I wake up feeling as though I am not rested.
In other words, if I like to go to sleep and just good night, goodbye, slice of death, see you if I wake up.
And I wake up feeling good and rested and all the rest of it.
But if I have a vivid dream, it's like I've been working.
Okay, the difference between vivid dreams and the ODE experiences is simply this.
And this is why people say, well, how do you wake up in the morning refreshed if you're doing all this traveling and flying it?
That's my guess.
The difference is when you dream, you are definitely not out of your body.
And your body moves and turns with your experiences and your thoughts and your dreams.
But when you're ODE or out-of-body, this is what I tell people.
Take a comfortable spot.
Make sure that you're very comfortable.
Because if you're out for an hour or so, your body does not move at all.
And that's why I wrote an icon magazine titled, My Body Sleeps, But I Do Not.
That's exactly what happens.
The title of your book is Soul Traveler.
So let's stop and let's ask a little bit about the nature of what is how is the soul?
What is the soul?
That's a very profound question.
I can go through a lot of theology and metaphysics to tell people that the reason I call my book Soul Traveler is because I believe that a lot of people say, well, I have a soul.
Well, I don't believe it's something that you keep in your pocket or inside your body floating around somewhere.
I believe that we are a soul.
We are death, what we claim to have.
And that's what I believe leaves the body now.
Some people may say it's the spirit.
Well, that's the same thing to me because what it is is what you are.
It's your pure consciousness.
And that's what I call the soul.
And I believe that the soul travels.
Oh, my soul does travel.
So that's why I named it soul traveler.
Is it the same immortal soul yet that we talk of in various religions in the world?
That is the soul.
Yes.
And it will go on and on and on.
And that is what leaves your body.
Yes, exactly.
Exactly.
And what I tell people, see, people, see, a lot of wonderful things can happen from having out-of-body experiences.
First of all, in 1993, I had a profound ODE, which totally removed the fear of death.
I mean, completely, I do not fear death in any way, shape, or form.
I'm a member of the International Association of Near-Death Studies.
And when I had this experience, this ODE experience, suddenly I felt as if I'm finally home.
Like, that is my natural state, and death in the physical body is a very, very temporary state.
All of a sudden, I understood who I really was, and I understood that not only would I survive death, but I would continue consciously to experience another reality, so to speak.
And this is what I tell people, if you travel out of body, that the death is your daughter's mind to get it.
That's what it feels like.
And that's the same experiences that my colleague has left who's had near-death experiences.
It is exactly like that.
That's as dead as you'll ever get.
I interviewed Daniel Berkeley.
He describes an extremely vivid near-death experience.
I don't even know if you could call it near-death.
It seems like it was death.
And so he validates what you're saying, or you're validating what he says.
Exactly.
What did you can you tell us where did you go?
What did you determine?
What did you feel and see?
And was it a material-like world or an esoteric?
Tell me.
Okay, in the beginning, in the beginning, I would just rise up out of the body and I would kill by the ceiling.
Or I would slow down to the floor and go through my house through a different room.
Or and then I started getting braver and braver until at first I didn't know what was going on.
Well then I would go, I would think about a person that me I knew and I would go to their house.
When you were again physical, I'm going to put it down to something I understand.
When you look out of your body, do you perceive that you have a body?
Um you you can see that you have what's called in some cases an astral body or like Robert Monroe that you sat out of the second body and you actually can see hands but they do not look exactly like the hands of your physical body.
They're kind of transparent.
The hand is a little bit larger than your normal hand.
It it glows slightly.
The luminescence.
And you can use these hands.
This body that you're in is just as maneuverable and you can feel and touch the fabric just like you could in the physical.
Other things you can touch it or you can penetrate through it.
Like walls, fabric, anything.
If you touch it and you can penetrate like you can penetrate through it.
Well when you say you can touch it, let's say I would go to my couch and touch my couch now in the physical world.
I will see the depression in the couch when I touch it.
Yes?
You got it correct?
All right.
Can ask for a travel.
If I touch, you say I can touch things.
You know, to touch that couch, would I see a depression?
Um I would say no, but you would feel almost every fiber of the couch more than you would if it was your physical hand.
Now, with Robert Monroe, he has actually been out of body and has pinched someone and left a physical groove on that person.
That is very rare.
Very rare.
But most people just feel the purpose and aren't able to affect it, like move objects and things like that, while LBD.
Nobody knows it with pieces of luck.
Yes, and in this book, I believe it was the first one where he described how he thought he did this out of body, but then after he returned, he called the person up and they confirmed that he actually did that.
And then he called the person later and they had a groove he talked to where he touched the person.
Is there any limits to where one may travel?
No, there isn't.
You can go anywhere you want, physical or non-physical reality.
The only limit are your own fears and limitations.
Then you should be able to prove it then.
In other words, if you can go to Egypt or Tokyo or anywhere, then you should be able to observe something in that state and it could then be verified.
Is that possible?
Yes, exactly.
Exactly.
And it's happened.
And I've done that numerous times.
I've gone to friends out there that I've never been physically and come back and really written about it in detail.
And some of that is in my book.
And then call them up and started telling them what their place looked like.
Not only what the interior of their apartment looked like, but what the views were out there at the window, what the neighborhood looked like, because I was flying around the neighborhood.
Now, I can tell you, six years ago, if you would have told me this, I would have thought you were not.
I didn't just buy into this at all.
I was very, very skeptical to this whole thing.
But after proving it into myself, because basically that's all I wanted to do.
I wanted to find out what was happening with me.
Naturally.
When I started doing it, proving it to myself, then I'm investing it out to it.
I'm a researcher.
I understand.
You're in the hard sciences.
I mean, I was in NASA, you're actually in SEI and all the rest of that.
Exactly.
I've had a secret clinic for the last 20 years.
I know, you actually, it says you're performing development engineering on top secret programs like F-117 stealth.
Exactly.
Now, from Constantine, do you get from this kind of experience to soul traveling?
Well, like I said, this thing happened to me when I was five years old.
I didn't go out to get to have these experiences.
They came to me.
And all I wanted to do was understand what was going on.
Since it was happening without my control at that time, I just wanted to know, I wasn't sure it wasn't some type of neurological defect or some type of uh psychological problem, schizophrenia, or something like that.
So then I started exploring it, and I only explored it as a researcher.
I just wanted to find out, measure, and and convince myself.
Daniel started.
Daniel did exactly the same thing.
Before he began to really investigate, he went to every doctor in sight, had every testing site performed, trying to ensure there was no physical malady whatsoever, and once he was finally satisfied, then he began to skill.
Exactly.
And that's and that's what I say.
You know, skepticism is very healthy.
I don't tell people to I don't tell people that I'm here to convince you because I'm here to give you some tool that you can go out and find out for yourself.
Then you come back and say, oh my god, this is real.
How sure are you it's real?
In other words, how sure are you that it is not simply a dream state, the moving, uh, electrified synapses of your brain uh clicking away while you sleep?
How do you know it's not?
How sure am I?
Yes.
I would say 110%.
That's how sure I am.
I don't know about it at all, not just because of floating out of the body, but I've had so many interesting experiences.
See, I'll have them caught me by surprise.
And I've been removing straight to the surface of what really happens while you're OBE.
You know, there's those things that are like spirit encounters, things like that, that were to me at the time frightening.
I mean, and it was happening every night, sometimes three times a night.
And after a period of time, what's been years now, you start to believe that you experience it several times a week.
Are you able to discern in what you're out of body?
Are you able to discern between that which you observe in the physical world and say an encounter with another traveler?
Oh, definitely.
You know, this is what's interesting about traveling OBE because, see, as you talked about it before, you're in the spirit body or in the soul body, and you have far more awareness than you do right now, the physical body.
You're open to a lot of things, and you understand a lot of things.
And there's some things that you just know.
You just need to fight almost like tapping into Dr. Joseph Murphy called it, Universal Consciousness.
They have those psychics too.
They just know things, and they don't, they're not really fucking busy because they're very sure inside.
And that's what happens while you're OBE.
And I'm looking at your consciousness opens up, and you just understand a lot of things that will baffle you in the physical.
Do you remember a movie called Summer in Time?
Um, was that the chapter one?
No, no.
Christopher Reese.
It was a story, it was a really love story.
It was a story about travel in time.
And it was about this man who fell in love with this image of a woman.
And I mean sick love, just absolutely in love.
And he wanted to be with her.
So he isolated himself in a hotel room and took away every object that would be reminiscent of the 20th century.
Was anything wearing this room?
Yes, sir, I remember.
All right, maybe you're wearing love.
He is what was depicted in that motion picture.
Now, he traveled in time.
Is that possible?
Yes, it is possible.
As a matter of fact, I'm only just in the physical plane.
There is no time when you're out of body.
You can have an experience that feels like three hours and may only happen in five minutes.
Time is a function, time is a function of physical world.
Correct, correct.
And people, this is the warning I give people.
I don't give a lot of warnings about this.
But one of the warnings I do give is that because it's very real, it's not a segment of your imagination.
Especially if you go forward in time.
You go forward in time and you may see something and something you may not like.
Guiding Angels Manifest Change 00:02:59
unidentified
And when you come back to the physical, you'll have to deal with it.
And you may even see this particular thing begin to manifest.
So that's why I tell people, be kind of very careful.
Because once you know, you will have to live with it.
What then are we able to discern about the nature of time?
In other words, if you go forward in time and see something that is already occurring, then you see it begin to manifest.
Can you change it?
I would say in some cases you can, but in other cases, because this is what this we're not going through life or this existence on earth united, we are all here.
This is this we are all here for reference.
And some experiences have to occur for us to gain or to evolve that individual spirit.
So there's some things that you're not going to be able to change.
And it doesn't do a lot of philosophy about karma and things like that.
But there are some things that are going to manifest.
Some things you can change.
But there are some things that you can and you will have to deal with them.
Anyway.
Interesting.
It confuses me then about the nature of time.
In other words, are things predestined?
You're saying sometimes they are.
Well, yes, sometimes.
Some things have to occur.
Not only do they have to occur, you agree to let them occur.
Or you agree to have this experience.
So, because I because, see, we're not just talking about the individual.
And I want to go into this.
When you get out of the body, you'll find some in Gothic beliefs they'll call them guardian angels.
In metaphysical circles, they'll call them our guides.
So these guys are guarding angels are kind of guiding you through experiences that you agreed to have prior to coming here.
Where these things are going to manifest.
What are these entities?
Well, like I said, depending on your belief, and if you're in your religious belief, you may call them angels.
You may call them free guiding spirits.
In metaphysical circles, they'll call them guides, masters, helpers.
What do you call them?
I call them guides.
The thing is that although many other names, it's not a statement.
And they still are going to perform the same job they would no matter what you call them.
And their job is for your higher good.
And it's not something they take up, it's something that they're helping you to accomplish that you agree to do.
Do you believe that we need successive physical lifetimes?
You mean reincarnation beyond?
Oh, definitely.
Definitely.
And I didn't believe this six years ago.
I didn't even believe it four years ago.
Late Majority Awakening 00:07:36
unidentified
But definitely, through the out-of-body experience and the other non-physical realities that I have this day, it'll slowly open my mind to this, I mean, open my understanding to what we really are.
We're very, we're kind of.
And we then, and this is wonderful because if you think about it, to me, life without reincarnation is on a stage frame with only one act.
There just isn't enough time for character development.
That's a great line.
All right.
Listen out, relax, take it easy.
We'll come back and open up back to the top of the house.
Great.
All right.
My guest is Albert Taylor, Altayler.
He has authored a book called Soul Traveler.
He also has a webpage.
If you would like to see a webpage and your computer tonight, we've got a link up for you tonight.
Simply go on to www.rtel.com and jump right across.
You'll see it right there at the top.
The late majority of the play of Coastal Coast AM from September 25th, 1996.
George Program opened September 25th, 1996.
Do you fear a little slice of death every night?
Well, you asked for it, so here it is.
We're discussing sleep paralysis.
My guess is Al Taylor.
He's written a book called Soul Traveler.
That gives you an idea of where we're going and where you may be going.
He had it as a young server.
This man was an engineer.
He worked on SDI.
He worked on the stealth programme.
He owns a computer company.
Not a likely candidate to write a book like Soul Traveler.
So if you want to find out what sleep paralysis, that little site, Slice of Death is all about, stay right here.
When they're back to the house.
And the iPhone app.
They also have our amazing bundle library of the music shows.
That's over a thousand shows for you to build up the inboard.
If you're a bad post, you won't want to be well on Coast Insider.

Looking for the truth.
You find me on Coastal Coast AM of George Jordan.
I argue with people about disclosure time and time again.
I've told them governments are not going to come out willingly tell us it's going to happen by mistake.
It's going to happen by a whistleblower.
Well, it's not going to be an organizing.
Governments won't do that.
The reason why they won't do it is because they do not want us to know.
They think that they lose control of us.
If they know, if you actually truly believe that we will be visited by extraterrestrials, you have categorical proof that was happening.
Do you think you'll listen to some of the bull that government throws out all the time?
Absolutely not.
You'd look toward the heavens, you'd say there's got to be a better way, and you won't start doing your own thing.
And you will forget all about government control and everything else.
So the bottom line is, government will never, ever disclose the true facts of true or false.
Coastal Coast AM is happy to announce that our website is not optimized for multiple messages.
So simply the idea of any platforms.
Now you can use a details of the unfortunate set on your phone.
You have quick and screen on fashion.
And if you're a coach insider, you have our great subscriber features right on your phone.
We'll need to listen to the logo and screen TV shows.
And no special act is necessary to enjoy our email site.
To be continued...
If that gets higher, I think I hope the government stays supportive of this crazy wise people assuring their frustrations.
We're looking at a very distorted call to the April version.
The authors of Culture Service of Coastal Coast AM has a new name.
Coach Insider is to avail some great features for the same little bus.
Just with using today, we sign up for one year.
But I'm going to do this contested.
The functions we can use about a new donated automatic YouTube computer or anything.
And the algorithm will find the online programs.
You also have our amazing one new library of three videos of shows.
Just think, as a new subscriber, over 1,000 jokes will be available for you to collect the enjoyment list of you at your leisure.
Thus you'll get steamed on the amount of stuff our bells, some of the design shows, and some weekly buses.
And as a member, you'll have access to our monthly live channels and input your journey on social buses.
If you're a fan of folks, you won't want to be without Coach Insider.

Now we take you back to the line of September 25th, 1996.
On our bell, someone talking.
Moving Through Trauma 00:14:49
unidentified
Back to Al Taylor, who wrote Soul Traveler.
It's all about this sleep paralysis thing, but so much more.
And Albert, I'm going to hit you with the hard stuff first.
Can I do that?
Here, here it comes.
Might as well dispense with it right now.
[background noise]
It sounds like he's locked into the OBD so much, he's no longer an objective observer or researcher.
Guides, helpers, watchers, or whatever you call them, could be part of the end time deception.
Sounds like he no longer can tell the difference.
Signed Bob.
And this, of course, is the religious angle.
And they see you as a new wavy, kind of touchy-feely person.
And they see you possibly as, you know, on the dark side.
And now, how do you answer that?
Well, all I can say is that I'm the middle of the road, that person I don't say.
I'm a researcher.
I do not depth.
I don't jump to conclusions.
And I have absolutely no information that could suggest that something is negative going on.
If I did, I would definitely pay attention to it.
But as I say, right at this moment, out of all the experiences I've had, I've had a hundred, I have absolutely no information showing that something negative is going on.
Do you remember the movie Slack Linus?
Yeah.
They um they induced clinical death to determine what was on the other side.
That occurs naturally that people with monotonic strokes, you know, near death, right?
Um when they leave their body, uh or when they left their body in those clinical uh experiments, uh which could be done in their world of course, meaning uh would they be going through the same process that you go through when you leave your body in soul travel?
Uh not exactly.
That would be more like if if you could if you could do that or if someone would do that, that would be more like a controlled near-death experience.
And in a near-death experience, you don't have uh options on where to go.
Generally you come out of the body to go to a trauma and have to go into the body or if you want to stop the heart.
And you may have to go around the body for a few minutes.
You may even move around in different locations, but eventually you're drawn into a trauma or you go and transition to a non-physical reality and have experiences with the light or Jesus or whatever, depending on your belief, whatever type of uh uh entity or angelic being that might be there.
But you seem to have experiences with dead bones.
Yeah, that's and see the thing is during the near-death experience, you're drawn there and during the out-of-body experience.
You choose to go there, which is a big difference.
Otherwise you choose to go there and you can choose to come back line.
I assume you have far more control.
Far more.
Alright, let's say that I'm and this is going to be the majority of the audience.
So I'm Albert, um I'm interested.
I have this sleep paralysis.
It's been occurring.
It's been bothering me.
It's been scaring the hell out of me.
And I decided to take your advice.
And I come to you, Albert, and I say, all right, look, I'm willing to give it a try.
It's been scaring me.
This sounds interesting.
How do I do it?
Okay.
Well, the first thing I would say, you know, in my book, in chapter 14, I dedicated the whole entire chapter on how to do it.
And I also dedicate a portion of the chapter on how to induce the paralysis.
In case you don't, you know, you want to make it happen with it.
A lot of people once they find out what it is, they do.
But what I say is first when I explain what the paralysis is and when and what it is and what it is not.
First of all, it's not a defect.
It's not a neurological problem or something like that or a breathing problem.
What it is right now, as we're awake in the physical world, we're doing our spirit and our body are very tightly connected.
But in the sleep, during sleep, when we go to sleep, the body falls asleep and as it does, it kind of releases its grip on the spirit.
But the spirit hasn't moved anywhere, or the actual form hasn't moved anywhere you're consciousness.
You're disconnected from the physical, but you haven't transitioned from the body.
So you feel as if I can't move.
But you're very, very aware.
And the thing you have to do is that you go from trying to move the physical body to moving the spiritual body or actual form.
And once you make that transition, then all you have to do is think about and actually label in your consciousness on your mind a lot to flow upward.
And sometimes, well, when you do that, generally you begin to laugh about the body.
But sometimes without you even requesting it, you begin to laugh about the body.
No matter what you're scary.
I was listening to you.
I imagine where you are conducting a tour that you're moving from.
And you're telling me this is scary.
I wake up kind of.
But I've not yet tried.
You and I may just feel yourself and you can do this simply by when paralysis sets in, you mean consciously wishing it to be so.
Well, the first thing you have to do is you'll be able to fork in the world where you'll want to panic and feel fearful thoughts and want to come back and want to take a deep breath.
And it takes practice and it's very difficult.
You just have to let go.
And that's hard because when you start letting go, real physical reality, physical sensations like breathing and being aware of the room begin to slip away almost like a mini death.
Oh, that is scary.
It's you know, it's more discomforting than anything.
But once you transition that period, all of a sudden you're totally disconnected and you feel you feel free, right, and you have a whole new awareness of your being.
Are you are you a wonderful thing?
What are the what are the physical sensations?
For example, once you're free, once you're out, are you still breathing?
Um no.
Well you can't do you you know you don't lose complete contact with the physical body.
It's not like you're detached completely and you have no awareness of it.
You feel very much connected.
You can sense how you're breathing, you can sense how you're doing, that type of thing.
But no, you don't you don't breathe in the absolute thought.
You can you can think it, think that you are, but you're not breathing in the afterthought.
All right, I'm thinking we're beyond.
Meanwhile, I wanted to tell you kind of just some of the things that you hear experience doing.
A lot of people hear a buzzing sound.
Yes, oh yes.
Yes, yes, yes.
Electrical sound.
Absolutely.
You may hear a roaring wind like there's a a loud, loud noise going on inside of your head.
What is that?
The beginning of the paralysis?
The beginning of the disconnection process.
Or you may hear a whistle or a high-pitched tone.
Or you may see a box of light shoot across your eye, like in front of your vision.
And these are just warnings that are indications.
Immutations.
And this is the point, believe me, where most of this panic.
Panic and gets more fearful and then have to reconnect and most of us do.
That's right.
And because we don't know what's beyond, we generally a lot of us don't get to experience that.
But once you do, you be definitely look forward to the experience.
You relish it, as a matter of fact.
Alright, let's back up just a little because let's ground this.
Suburban!
Some of them worked, some of them moderately worked, some of them didn't work at all.
But what I found out about that, I call it the IST.
What I found out about the IST, if you do it correctly, like I will do my talk in chapter 14, it will work approximately for the average person about 8 out of 10 nine, which is phenomenal.
And what that is, and then a lot of people will be able to relate to this because they do it then without knowing.
What you do is you go to sleep about maybe 10 o'clock at night and you set your alarm and wake up about 1.30.
And when the alarm goes off, you get out of bed.
You don't just drop the alarm and lay there.
You get out of bed and go watch television, read a book.
That's fine.
But I'll find you as long as you stay at the floor.
But don't eat.
You can drink water.
Don't eat anything.
Because the body uses energy to process food.
So then when you go back to sleep about maybe 3.30, 4 o'clock, don't do this on the day you want to go to work.
Right?
And when you lay down, then just do a whatever.
There's a moment visual relaxation technique you can do.
I look everywhere in my book.
But basically what you want to do is just try to relax every muscle in your body.
You start one at a time from the top of your head and then move down your body all the way to your CSTs relax.
Oh, I know about that.
I'm a lot of sleep troubles, Hollywood.
And one way to get to sleep, I found, is to close your eyes if you meditate.
And if nothing else works, you think of your finger, relax your finger, you may relax the rest of your fingers, and every time you relax your arm and consciously work.
I've done that.
Together.
What happens is, is while you're going through this process and you're just laying there, don't move.
And you have to have to try not to move.
What will happen is, and this is a really phenomenal, your body will fall asleep, but your consciousness will stay wide awake.
And suddenly you find yourself in that cloud of state.
And you may even hear your body snoring.
And that's when you really become aware that you're something a little different than the body.
Oh, that's weird.
You may hear yourself.
You just use your body like you use school code.
Oh, yeah, if you hear yourself snoring in your conscious, I would say there's been some sort of separation.
Definitely, definitely.
But you're still not really at that point out of your body.
You're just sort of separated from your physical self.
Correct.
Correct.
And you're occupying, you're still occupying the same state as your physical body.
But now in time, once you disconnect from the physical, then it's time to switch over your thinking and focus your thoughts on moving the eyeballs on or the session body of Robert Monroe called it.
I was lucky to have interviewed Robert before he died.
And we had a long discussion about the different levels of dimensional or different levels of hierarchy.
Do you agree with that aspect of the book?
100%.
You do.
Definitely.
Robert Monroe, to me, was my mental, even though I never got a chance to meet him.
He died two months before my book was finished.
I had not finished it to them.
Thankfully, I was having these experiences and they were fighting me.
I mean, notice that I was so afraid the first time I had the experience that I jumped up out of the bed and I came out all the way in the house.
I was here.
I was scared.
But when I started reading Robert's book, I started finding things in there that were happening to him that were happening to me.
And that was a validation for me.
Because then I knew what I was, not just me, not me having some kind of defect or something wrong with me.
Here's someone else talking about the exact same thing.
And that's why I wanted to write my book in very simple tongues so anybody could understand something that was happening to them.
Not to convince them that I'm not involved in you, but to say that you do, and then you may not even know it.
Do you have any idea, or would you take a guess at why so many people suddenly are beginning to have this?
Now you mentioned earlier, well, more people are willing to talk about it now.
You have a cause of this.
Yeah, yeah, for the other coach.
But is it possible that something else, something bigger is going on?
Well, I would say yes.
I would say that we, as a race of humans, are becoming more spiritual.
We are waking up to the reality of what we really are and what the capability of the phone is.
And there it is.
Yes, it is a new age.
It's almost like a power wave.
And we all are becoming more involved, and we're all having more and more of these types of experiences.
Not just our body experiences, but clear planes, clear audio, and experience counters.
Are you able to heal the body?
Do you have trouble with all about that?
So we're all kind of evolving together.
And now these things are starting to manifest.
More and more.
Have you done any, you know, your background is in science.
So have you, scientists like to do things.
They like repeatability.
Yes.
And with regard to ODE, how do you feel?
What's your best evidence for those who are standing back right now and saying, oh, come on?
Well, my best evidence is describing physical tests that I've never did.
Physically.
And deciding them not with approximate detail or 50% detail, but 100% detail.
Bells Somewhere in Time 00:04:32
unidentified
And doing it over and over again.
That's a me, no matter what you want to call it, something is occurring.
You make claims that sound like those made by those who claim to be able to do remote viewing.
Is there a relationship?
Okay, well, remote viewing is a little bit different from actual traveling or having an ODE.
Remote viewing is almost like if you have to view a room, it's almost like you are a camera up in a corner of the room or in a particular fixed location where you can view the room.
Having an ODE is like physically being there, where you can move around the room and you feel like you're walking or floating or flying or you can catch options.
So I'm here that you're there.
Alright, we'll be right back.
It's the bottom of the hour.
We're discussing sleep paralysis and free travel.
We'll be right back.
You'll see what bells somewhere in time on the new radio networks.
Tonight's an ongoing presentation of Coastal Coast AM from September 28th, 1996.
You're listening to Watch Bells Somewhere in Time on Premier Radio Networks.
Tonight's an ongoing presentation of Coast to Coast AM from September 25th, 1996.

My guest is Al Taylor.
His book is Soul Traveler.
We'll find out how to get it here shortly.
We'll give out the 800 number again.
Plus, he's got a webpage.
You can get to it by going to mine, hopping to his.
That's www.artbell.com.
You'll see it right up there at the top.
I want to remind the audience tomorrow night, Dr. Jesse Marcel Jr., the son of Major Jesse Marcel, who put his hands on Roswell Parts Tomorrow, beginning of the program.
Friday night, Saturday morning, Zachariah Sitchin.
Then, Graham Hancock and Robert Buval.
The Pyramids.
Big, new, dramatic news.
They'll be touching down in the USA shortly.
They'll be here Friday night, Saturday morning.
You don't want to miss that.
In a moment, back to Al Taylor and a fascinating program.
It's all about sleep paralysis and what it really is.
unidentified
You're listening to Art Bell, Somewhere in Time, on Premier Radio Networks.
Tonight, an encore presentation of Coast to Coast AM from September 25th, 1996.
art bell
All right, we're going to go into a pretty rough area here for a moment, and I don't know where it's going to go, but let's find out.
Al, are you there?
dr albert taylor
Yes, I am.
art bell
All right.
Here's a facts from somebody that I want to read, and then I want to follow it.
Out-Of-Body Experiences 00:15:22
art bell
Dear, please ask Mr. Taylor if in his travels he's observed or gained knowledge of things relating to what I call, Art Bell calls, the quickening.
We've had a lot of people on this program in the past talk about earth changes, disasters, things that are yet to come, and that there may be a future of rather immediate disruption, Al, some pretty awful things coming.
And you said it was the single warning that you give people if you travel to the future, you may see something you don't like at all.
unidentified
Right.
art bell
And that would be disturbing.
And so since you have done this so carefully, what can you, if you can, tell us about what is to come?
dr albert taylor
See, that I haven't done as far as what I did see had to do with my life.
And, you know, I belong to the International Association of Near Death Studies, like I mentioned before, which is IANS.
And if you've read a lot of books by the people, Betty Eady, Kimberly Clark Sharp, Hushi Hanta, and a few other people, you'll read that a lot of people have near-death and then come back psychic.
The out-of-body experiences I've had aren't quite like that.
But see, what I noticed is that a lot of these people dwell on doom and gloom.
And they predict all these catastrophes and things like that.
And me personally, I don't see any reason to tell a person that horrible things are going to happen unless you can do something about it.
I'm not into predicting doom and gloom.
I do say that we need to straighten up.
art bell
Yeah, but see, that sounds a little like you know these things, and your attitude is, why tell people and put them in a state of it?
dr albert taylor
I wouldn't say anything unless there was something you could do about it.
It's like, if I know you're going to die tomorrow, why would I tell you that?
Unless you could prevent it.
Otherwise, I'm just going to instill fear, and you're going to have to live the next 24 hours in fear.
Why would I do that to you?
I wouldn't do that to you.
art bell
Well, if I read between the lines of that answer and I don't have to read too hard, I'm not sure I like what I hear.
dr albert taylor
Well, I can say this.
I know, I mean, it doesn't take a psychic person to realize what we're doing to the environment and to our world and our planet and things like that.
And we need to clean up our act in a lot of ways.
And a lot of it is environmental and how we treat Mother Earth.
So I can tell you, if we progress on the path that we've gone, it's inevitable that something disastrous is going to occur.
But I have not seen this psychically, because like I said, all the experiences I've seen in the future, and I don't want to do that anymore.
I don't do that because I don't want to do that to myself.
But what I can say is that, you know, sizely, what I did see had to do with my own personal life, which actually manifested, and I had to deal with it.
So having to deal with it, which was very difficult for me, that's why I tell people, just be prepared because you may not see what's going to happen in Russia.
You may see what's going to happen right in your own home.
That's harder to deal with than what may be happening over on the other side of the world.
art bell
Let's keep it close to home.
Could you view your own death?
unidentified
I would say yes.
art bell
Would you?
unidentified
Could.
dr albert taylor
I don't think there are any limitations.
art bell
Would you?
dr albert taylor
Would I view my own death?
You know, I'm not afraid of death, so that really doesn't bother me.
I just don't want to die in a horrible way.
Because I know that death is just a transition.
I know that I will be consciously awake and aware, even more so than I am now.
So that doesn't scare me as far as death is concerned.
I don't want to be mutilated and dying a horrible car accident.
unidentified
Naturally.
dr albert taylor
You know, but it doesn't scare me at all.
As a matter of fact, I was sitting in an IANS meeting recently, and there were a bunch of, you know, these people who've had near-death experience who are psychic, and they were saying there's going to be volcanic eruptions, there's going to be tidal waves, earthquakes, and all that.
And I raised my hand, and I said, excuse me, can I say something?
And they said, sure, Al.
And I said, you know, the worst thing that could possibly ever happen to us is that we all end up in a permanent out-of-body state.
And that's not really that bad.
So that's how I look at it.
It doesn't matter what happens, you're still going to survive.
art bell
No, I do understand what you're saying, but there are a lot of people out there who nevertheless will look at it in a different way.
In not as quite an esoteric manner.
Well, they don't have the knowledge you have right now.
dr albert taylor
Right, it's fear of the unknown.
They think death is final.
I'm not going to be able to think after death.
I'm not going to exist if you don't believe in spirit.
You think that it's over.
I won't be able to experience life anymore.
art bell
But in a lot of ways, it is.
unidentified
Well, let me challenge that.
dr albert taylor
It depends on if you believe in reincarnation.
art bell
Okay, right, exactly.
That's where I'm going.
Let us say that reincarnation, for the sake of the following discussion, is an absolute fact, all right?
Let us say that I have lived before.
I have no conscious recollection living before.
unidentified
Right.
art bell
So that which came before me is, in essence, dead.
If the consciousnesses that came prior to me are not able to manifest themselves and think consciously or be aware, I don't know how we define what that is.
I'm aware.
Then those prior lives are no consciousness.
No, no, I wouldn't say of no use because, you know, I understand karma, but they are not conscious in the sense that we experience consciousness now.
Certainly I have no conscious recollection of memories from a prior life.
dr albert taylor
And that's without doing anything.
But there are past life regressions and hypnotherapy that you can draw up these memories.
unidentified
I know.
dr albert taylor
And these things are there.
And this is what I tell people.
How many times have you had a dream where you didn't remember until days after you actually had the dream because something happened that day?
And then all of a sudden it came and you said, huh, I dreamt about this.
Well, first of all, that memory of that dream was somewhere.
You didn't have conscious recall of it, but it was there.
So something triggered it.
Just like if you really seek and you do hypnosis or meditation or things like that, you can trigger these memories.
And to me, like I said, I didn't believe any of this until it actually happened.
And then I was astounded at the actual capability to recall memories that Albert Taylor has never experienced.
art bell
Where have you gone?
dr albert taylor
Where have I gone as far as memories or aggression?
unidentified
No.
art bell
As far as out of body is concerned.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
dr albert taylor
Well, beyond the physical, while flying around, this was something that's really interesting that happened is I felt drawn to this, and I will call it a state of consciousness rather than a place, because it's really a state of consciousness, where I felt pulled there.
So after I arrived at this place, and I call it a meeting place because I have no other name for it, and I would say there were a multitude of beings, entities.
I didn't know exactly what they were.
My aunt passed away in Cedar Sidney Hospital of cancer in 1982.
I saw this being, entity, whatever you want to call it, that resembled my aunt dramatically.
And I doubted it.
I just thought this can't be her.
She died.
I was a pallbearer at her funeral.
But I could not deny that this person, if anybody looked like her and felt like her, it was her.
And I panicked.
I thought, I've got to get out of here.
So I left.
The same feeling happened, this very same occurrence happened two days later where I was drawn to the same location.
I saw the same entity.
But this time the entity approached me.
And through sharing, and see, you don't talk to each other.
You share thought forms.
And through sharing these thought forms and consciousness, I began to understand.
And first of all, I identified her immediately.
And another thing that happened is that I've been afraid of spirits all my life.
I say I'm a product of Hollywood.
So I've seen every horror movie there possibly could exist.
But through sharing this experience with my aunt as a deceased entity or whatever, it calmed my fear.
And I suddenly identified more with who she was, what was happening to her.
And I realized that I'm not very different from her, except I have a place to go back to.
I have a body.
But in essence, when I die, or when I'm in that state, I'm just like her.
art bell
All right.
Here's one for you to explain.
The other night on my program, a lady called with a very vivid, very horrible story.
And the person sending the facts right now is reflecting on that.
This lady was attacked.
She was attacked in her bed, paralyzed in a state of paralyzation.
That's the correct word.
She was certainly paralyzed.
And she was attacked by an entity that tried to rape her.
She was actually in bed with her children when this occurred.
And it was a very graphic description.
And this person writes, Al, I've had many nights of body paralysis.
Like you, I'm scared out of my wits when I have them.
Now I may be a little calmer, I hope, listening to you.
Just a few nights ago, a lady called your show, my show, said she was in her bed with her children, was attacked by something that climbed upon her.
Do you think this could have been someone having an OBE and seeking sexual pleasure?
Or was this demonic?
dr albert taylor
First of all, I don't believe in demons.
But yes, to your first question, it could have been.
Because you can do that.
You can come, matter of fact, you can come to any, first of all, you can go to anyone's bedroom, and you can actually pull them out of body, where they actually feel you tugging on them, and you can cause them to have an OBE.
art bell
That's an invasion of privacy.
dr albert taylor
Well, yeah, it can be.
It can be, yes, exactly.
But, you know, hopefully people won't do that.
But yes, there aren't any limitations, but you can actually do that.
So you can go to another person's, if you have the capability of traveling OBE, you can go to anyone's house and you can interact with them while they're in the dream state.
art bell
Good Lord.
Then there is as negative a side to OBE as there is a positive side, isn't there?
dr albert taylor
Well, only because we as humans have a negative side to us.
art bell
Of course we do.
But I am surprised to hear you say that.
So you could literally do what this entity did to this lady if you were so inclined.
dr albert taylor
If you had the capability of traveling OBE, yes, you could.
But I would say out of all the people that I know who have done, who have the capabilities, because I'm definitely not alone, they aren't focused in that direction at all.
And this is something that I tell people, when you're out of body, you don't think the same as we do now.
You don't think about the carnal things and material things like you would now.
You're thinking a little bit higher, having a little bit higher awareness and consciousness of what you are.
art bell
Well, somebody must have been thinking that way because this is not the only report of this kind of thing occurring by and by.
dr albert taylor
I read the book Entity also some time ago about the Carlotta Moran experience.
unidentified
Yes.
dr albert taylor
Which was horrifying.
unidentified
Yes.
dr albert taylor
And I really felt for her.
I don't understand what that particular entity was.
I would say that that was definitely not an actual traveler.
That appeared to be something else.
And I haven't had an experience with that type of energy or person or entity.
But this is something that I found out, is that when you're OBE and even when you're not, you're capable of creating thought forms.
And as a matter of fact, if you think about something like, say, a lion or a devil or something like that, you can experience that while OBE.
But it doesn't mean that this is separate thing that's coming to attack you.
You may have created it through your own fears.
And you can experience it.
If you visualize a lion and it bites you while OBE, you will feel the pain only because it's a mental thing that you've accepted.
So you can have these experiences, but over practice, over a period of time, you've begun to understand that how you create things.
And once you understand how you create these experiences, you can control them and not create them.
art bell
All right, then is it not possible, if you were to have such an OBE experience, that it could produce psychological damage?
dr albert taylor
Well, I'd say anything that is unknown, frightening, terrifying, that type of thing could, to some people, because we're all different, could possibly affect you in the physical or psychologically.
But like I said, I've been out hundreds of times, and I know a lot of people have, and I teach it all the time, and I talk about creating these things.
And I talk about your own fears are what you really have to overcome, because your own fears are creating negative situations, sometimes create negative situations for you.
And what I tell people is once you start understanding this, you can have what I call a contamination-free out-of-body experience.
That way you're not introducing all these thought forms and negative things into your experience.
And you can have a wonderful out-of-body experience with not only just flying around, if that's what you want to do, but with angelic beings.
art bell
I like the idea of flying around.
unidentified
It's fun.
art bell
I like that a lot.
dr albert taylor
Like I said, you're so enthusiastic about the capability of flying.
You're not thinking about the material stuff like going to spy on Russia to see what kind of secret documents they have in their files or going to sneak into somebody's bedroom to see what they're doing.
You're not thinking about that at all.
You could if you really want to focus on that.
But because you're so enthusiastic about flying, it's like buying a new car.
You're going to drive the car all over the place.
You're not going to want to stop and go shopping.
You're going to want to drive because you're so enthusiastic about having the new car.
art bell
Oh, that's true.
dr albert taylor
So that's kind of how it works.
art bell
All right.
When we come back from the top of the hour, I'm going to open the phone lines, which have been blazing away since the instant we began, but I felt like we had to get a good grounding here to understand what we're talking about.
Can you do this anytime now that you want to?
dr albert taylor
Eight out of ten times.
It's pretty much successful.
Floating Upward Security Blanket 00:03:10
dr albert taylor
And even sometimes in one night, I've been able to have leave the body three times on one night.
unidentified
Wow.
dr albert taylor
Yeah, I'd say eight out of ten times.
That's about my best average.
art bell
Have you been off planet?
unidentified
Yes.
dr albert taylor
Oh, yeah.
And I describe it in my book.
And like I said, there's no limitations.
You can go up into space if you want, like Shirley McLean did in her movie at the end of her movie, Out on the Limb.
art bell
I remember that originally.
Yes, I recall that.
I recall the silver cord?
The silver cord, yes.
dr albert taylor
Some people experience the silver cord and some people don't.
But I do have a theory about what the silver cord is.
unidentified
Yes.
dr albert taylor
And see, I've looked for mine.
I have not seen it.
But I kind of think of it as like leaving breadcrumbs so you kind of know how to follow it back to your body in case you're a little fearful.
So it's kind of like a security blanket, so to speak.
art bell
That makes sense?
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
Yeah, that makes sense.
But you apparently don't need it.
dr albert taylor
No, you don't need it.
And as a matter of fact, you don't need the astral body.
See, Robert Monroe slipped out of the second body, and I have too.
And you can exist, and you can exist as a pinpoint of consciousness or in your light body, which is your natural state.
You don't need the astral form, but it provides, but see, if you went from a physical reality to a non-physical reality, like a pinpoint of consciousness, you'd be so disoriented, you probably would panic.
So the astral form is like a security blanket in itself because you feel like you're normal.
You feel like you have hands.
You feel like you have feet, a torso.
So it doesn't feel that odd.
art bell
Is this, you know, normally we'd say don't try this at home.
I think we're saying now this is something you can try at home.
Could somebody, from listening to you tonight, somebody who's been having sleep paralysis, after hearing what you've had to say and will say, could they try it based on that moment?
dr albert taylor
Oh, yeah, definitely.
Definitely.
My mother did it.
She's at 74 years old.
She did it and had a wonderful experience with her guardian angel.
That's what she calls it.
And she's still very, very enthusiastic about it, and she's lived her whole life with this paralysis dreading it up until four years ago.
Now she loves it.
So yes, if someone goes to sleep tonight and they find themselves in the paralysis, if you can remember not to panic and if you can remember not to try to fight your way out of it and let go and just relax and think about floating upward, I'd say 99% of the time you will have a wonderful eye-opening experience.
art bell
Will it begin the moment you consciously say, all right, I'm going to go with it.
I want to come up and I want to go out of my body.
Hold the Advice 00:05:37
art bell
Is that when it will begin or is there a further period of kind of panicked, hard-to-breathe, paralyzed state you've got to go through before it begins?
dr albert taylor
Well, with practice, you can reduce that time period of that paralysis down to almost nothing.
But it takes a little bit of practice.
Some people are, I don't want to use the word gifted, but some people are more capable of transitioning that little period of time.
I'd say that with a little bit of practice, you may not even feel the paralysis at all.
Your body may drift off to sleep, and you may start rising out of body right away.
That happens to me now.
I virtually don't feel the paralysis at all.
unidentified
All right.
dr albert taylor
Let me give this advice to whoever.
art bell
Hold the advice.
Hold the advice.
We're at the top there.
unidentified
We'll be right back.
You're listening to Art Bell Somewhere in Time.
Tonight, featuring a replay of Coast to Coast AM from September 25th, 1996.
I hear the drums echoing tonight.
She has only whispers of some quiet conversation.
Everybody might be
Tonight, featuring a replay of Coast to Coast AM from September 25th, 1996.
art bell
Good morning, everybody.
Good to be here.
Great to be here, in fact.
And we have a special show underway.
In answer to nights and nights and nights of questions from my audience about sleep paralysis, I have found Albert Taylor.
He has written a book called Soul Traveler.
From a very early age, he had death-like night paralysis, sleep paralysis.
This is a man who worked on the SELT F-117 project, a man who worked on SDI, a scientist, a man who began to research what was happening to him from childhood and now has found that it was the key, is the key, to what's called OBE or out-of-body travel, spirit travel, whatever you want to call it.
An interesting background, a fascinating man, a fascinating topic.
Many, many of you experiencing it.
We're going to go to the lines.
We've done two hours of setup.
If you're just joining the show, you'll have to kind of hang in there with us.
And we'll get back to Albert Taylor in a moment.
unidentified
Now we take you back to the night of September 25, 1996, on Art Bell, Somewhere in Time.
art bell
If you would like to see more about Albert Taylor and about soul travel and about his book, Soul Traveler, you can go to my website and we've got an immediate link to jump over to his if you are a computer type.
Simply go up to my website at www.artbell.com, www.artbell.com.
If you would like to get Mr. Taylor's book.
You are not an easy guy to get hold of.
And I really have been trying very, very hard to find somebody of your caliber to talk on the subject.
It's not easy.
And I was sort of panicked over the last few days getting all these calls.
And I'm not an expert in this area.
You are, and I've already learned a very great deal.
Let's take some calls and see what people have to say, all right?
unidentified
Great.
art bell
Okay, East of the Rockies, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
Where are you calling from, please?
unidentified
Hi, I'm Kayla.
I'm from Minneapolis.
art bell
Minneapolis.
All right.
unidentified
And about six years, five or six years ago, something similar to what you're talking about happened to me.
And for many years, up until now, I thought it was like a demonic possession or something.
It was very terrifying and traumatic for me.
And it was very late at night, and I was wide awake, just dying to get to sleep.
And I felt this, I closed my eyes for a moment, and I felt this immense pressure, like I was being smothered.
Or like there was a weight on me, but it wasn't physical.
It was just no physical touch, but I could feel the pressure.
Right.
And I could feel my body gasping for air.
Right.
Spontaneous Out-of-Body Experience 00:15:47
unidentified
And I didn't hear the noise.
I didn't hear the buzzing that you're talking about.
All I remember is just definitely struggling to try to come to and gather myself.
dr albert taylor
Right.
Well, that's what I spoke about earlier.
And some people nickname that experience the heavies.
And I mentioned that, you know, not everyone's going to get all of the symptoms.
Not everyone's going to feel the vibes.
Not everyone's going to hear the roaring.
Not everyone's going to feel the falling back through the bed or the heaviness.
But any one of those is a great indication that you're having these experiences.
Some people travel out of body and never even experience the paralysis like the gentleman who studied in Tibet was saying.
But do know this, that you definitely, if you can say yes or yes to one or two or three of the questions that I've asked the people, know that you are having these experiences and embrace it.
It's a wonderful thing and feel lucky about it.
unidentified
It's so terrifying.
You know, I mean, my whole life I've been so interested in the ODE thing and all kinds of psychic phenomenon and the whole world of the sickness.
dr albert taylor
Well, you know, what I can say is, to quote someone very famous, the only thing you have to fear is fear itself.
art bell
Yeah, I agree with this young lady.
I'm scared to death of it.
And how do you get over that hump?
It's easy to sit here and just talk about, but boy, when that moment comes, it's a terrifying thing.
dr albert taylor
I like to tell my little kitten story for those of you who are cat lovers out there.
It's just like this.
It's like when you bring a cat home from the pound or something like that, and you let it loose in your house, and it runs around your house, and it finally gets very used to being indoors.
But one day you have to go out to the curb to wait for the UPS man.
And you leave the door open, and you go out there to the curb.
You know cats how curious they are.
They're going to come to the door and they're going to look out the door and think, wow, this is a whole new world out there I didn't know anything about.
But when the UPS man drives up, the rumbling of the truck, it's going to frighten the cat because it's not familiar with it.
It's going to run back in.
But eventually it's going to come right back to the door and look outside and realize, well, there's no threat now.
Nothing's hurt me.
And it's going to step out into the porch and eventually it's going to step out into the shrubbery near the door.
And after a few days of doing this, the cat is going to be down the street and you won't be able to find it.
And that's exactly what we do.
The more and more I would come to the door, sometimes I'd hear the rumbling.
Sometimes I'd see something and I'd panic and run back in.
But then I'd realize nothing happened to me.
So I'd go further and further, and the further I would go, the more I would understand, and the more confidence I would build so it allowed me to even go even further.
So just take it a little bit at a time.
You don't have to run run into it.
And if you feel fear, it's perfectly normal because it's fear of the unknown.
But realize that you are safe.
Nothing is going to happen to you.
You're not going to die.
You're not going to be tortured by some demonic being.
You are okay.
It's okay.
unidentified
I just want to know that I'm not going to have to wake up every night and make a pot of coffee.
art bell
Well, just stay out from under the UPS wheels.
All right.
Thank you very much.
That was a good call.
On the first time, Caller Line, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
unidentified
Hi.
Hi, Al Taylor.
This is Peter from San Francisco.
Hello, Peter.
Not unlike you.
I've been fighting this thing since I was a child in the 50s.
So Art, this is not a new phenomenon.
art bell
Right.
unidentified
About 15 years ago, after seeing my only one and only UFO, I had always fought the paralysis.
One night, this was within about a week.
I saw some sort of a weird probe.
It looked like a small satellite in my room.
I turned the lights on.
It went away.
About a week later, it was the first attack of sleep paralysis maybe in a number of years at that time.
I will swear something was trying to pull me out of my body through the headboard and I could actually feel myself being pulled.
I had to fight for like what seemed an eternity to get like five minutes.
And there was this, unlike the buzzing, I had heard the buzzing noises before, but this was making a sound like a loose sand belt.
art bell
It was kind of a noise.
It was a strange noise.
unidentified
And I was just it felt like I was fighting for my life.
And under those conditions, I have to say, like Art feels, if I was going to let go, I felt I was never coming back.
I'll take my call.
I'll answer off the air.
dr albert taylor
Well, let me ask you one quick question before you leave.
When you felt something pulling on you, was it like a force or did you feel like a hand?
A force pulling you, like gravity type of thing?
Reverse gravity or something?
Or did you feel like a person was pulling on you?
unidentified
You know, it's very hard to say now.
It's been a long time.
I got the feeling that I could almost see something dark behind me, like it was a dark entity.
It was tremendous force.
I have definitely over the years, I've always fought it since a child.
I always fought it.
And I always knew that I could feel that floating sensation.
And you jump almost back into the body.
I could tell the difference between floating and being somehow pulled.
art bell
A force, an arm, a hand, claws, thing with black wings.
unidentified
I don't know.
art bell
All right, good enough.
unidentified
All right.
art bell
So in other words, whatever it was, he can't define it, obviously.
unidentified
Right.
art bell
But he was being pulled by something, some force.
It was not just sort of a drifting out of body type deal.
Something was trying to yank him out.
Now, what about that?
dr albert taylor
Well, listening to him, you know, and see, I hear a lot of people describe their experiences.
And a lot of times they will say something like, like the caller just said, a dark force.
And see, see, I'm a researcher, and I'm a middle-of-the-road person, and from what I heard from him, there's really no indication that it's a negative thing.
He may have perceived it that way.
And that's okay if that's the way you want to perceive it.
But because we're talking about perception, you could also perceive it as a positive thing.
Just because you don't know what it is doesn't necessarily mean that it's something dark or negative.
art bell
Just fear of the unknown.
unidentified
It's very positive.
art bell
Fear of the unknown.
unidentified
Yes, exactly.
art bell
But should you feel that you're being yanked and tugged and pulled, is that the feeling that should manifest or is it?
dr albert taylor
Well, yes, it ha it happens.
It happened to me all the time.
Matter of fact, I dreaded it because I didn't know what was going on.
My guides were pulling on me trying to get me out.
See, they do this to us every night, but only a few of us remember.
He just happened to be conscious of it.
Now, there are probably dozens and dozens of times that he had that same experience where he was being pulled that he doesn't recall.
So it's not really that abnormal.
It's just he happened to be very conscious of the experience at the time.
art bell
All right.
Wildcard line, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
unidentified
Hi.
Hello, this is Jared from Houston, Texas.
Yes, sir.
dr albert taylor
Hello, Jared.
unidentified
Hello.
I had an episode of sleep paralysis last night, as a matter of fact.
And I was laying on my side, and I was totally conscious through all of this because I was watching the clock radio digital clock next to my bed.
I was timing how long this was going to last because it was the first time I was actually conscious through something like that.
And my first response was to fight it, to try to move my body to try to jump out of bed so it would go away.
The more I tried, the harder it was.
And so I finally decided to let go and to see what would happen.
As soon as I said, okay, I'm going to let go.
As soon as I let go, I started, you know, I was hearing this noise, very loud noise, like somebody was spraying a water hose onto the side of a tin bar in a whole bunch of things.
Right.
dr albert taylor
Horrific noise.
unidentified
Oh, it was awful.
And it kept getting louder and louder the more I got sucked into it, so to speak.
I got this really odd sensation that my body was vibrating and I began to feel this sense of levitation.
The experience got so bizarre that immediately, as soon as I felt the levitation, I began to fight it.
I just all of a sudden I started fighting it because I had to get out of this.
It was so weird.
It was very foreign to me.
I started fighting and fighting it.
And finally, I snapped out of it and I jumped out of bed, turned all the lights on, and started calling people.
And I called a friend of mine who has petite maul epilepsy and he was telling me that things like that happen to him all the time.
But what my question is, is if you let yourself go into the levitation and what have you, can you get so enthralled into that?
I mean, can you get so enthralled to where you don't want to go back into your body or to where you just don't ever go back into your body?
dr albert taylor
You know, no, no.
See, the body has like an automatic recall kind of mechanism.
If you're out for a while, you'll start feeling drawn back, like pulled back, and it's very difficult to fight.
And eventually you'll just almost literally be kind of slammed or sucked back in.
So you don't, you can try to stay out.
My main fear of time, the body starts to recall you.
unidentified
Yeah, my main fear was that if I kept going and going and going, I didn't know where I was going to go actually.
I felt like if I kept letting myself go, that I may, you know, I could have maybe never have gone back into my body.
And so that's why I automatically started fighting it again.
dr albert taylor
Now, one thing that I have found is that, and this is another warning that I give people, and I don't give many, just a couple, is that while out of body, if you experience a higher consciousness of who you are, all of a sudden, I mentioned that earlier, that all of a sudden I realized that that was my home.
That was my natural state.
And when I came back to the body, I have to tell you now how it is now, I'm permanently homesick.
I always think about it because it's a wonderful feeling.
So that may be something you may have to deal with.
It's just the euphoria feeling or the wonderful lightness and well-being that you feel while out-of-body, you almost crave it.
That's about the only warning I would say.
But you don't have to worry about not being able to return or being drawn away by something beyond something supernatural that keeps you from returning.
You don't have to worry about that at all.
In fact, the best thing to do is try to get rid of all your fears.
Well, this is a very natural part of our existence, and it's a very wonderful thing.
unidentified
I was absolutely afraid to go back to sleep last night.
As a matter of fact, I stayed up all morning and fled through all of my classes.
But yeah, I stayed up all night.
But after listening to the show so far, it's a bit comforting, and I think I will go to sleep tonight.
And I'm almost looking forward to it happening again just so that I have the opportunity to let myself go further than I did last night.
dr albert taylor
I tell you, after a while, you will look forward.
You will look for the paralysis.
You will want to have it because it's a wonderful, wonderful thing.
But this is, let me, I wanted to say something before we broke last break, Art.
unidentified
Yes, sir.
dr albert taylor
And that was about sea.
A lot of people have this paralysis, and not everybody wants to have an OBE.
Some people just want to get out of the paralysis.
I have a cousin who I found, I was searching for people who were having paralysis.
art bell
All right, good, good, good.
Let me try that angle.
Suppose I'm, I like that.
Suppose I'm having paralysis and I want out.
How do I come out?
dr albert taylor
Okay, and that's what I was going to share.
My cousin, I sat for hours and explained to her wow, you can be off on your own jaunts, flying around and all that.
And she looked at me and she said, why would I want to do that?
She says, I just want to connect and get out of the paralysis.
So this is what I tell people.
If you find yourself in the paralysis and you dread it and you want to get out of it, first of all, just relax, calm down.
There's nothing going to happen.
But think about moving apart, a small part of your body.
Don't try to move everything.
Just think about maybe your hand, your little finger, your foot.
Just think about moving that.
Is it usually enough to help you?
art bell
A reconnection.
A reconnection with the physical.
dr albert taylor
Correct.
That is just a small part.
Not a big part.
And that is usually enough to help you reconnect.
And as a matter of fact, the more and more you practice it, you'll get so good at reconnecting, it won't be a problem or an issue at all.
art bell
Good advice.
East to the Rockies, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
Hi.
unidentified
Hi, Mr. Taylor.
Hi.
This is Brandon Fort Marsh, Florida.
I work in a sleep disorder center, and we have our patients fill out a very detailed questionnaire.
And I'm always impressed by the number of people that say they experience sleep paralysis.
Also, I was wondering, is there any studies done to correlate REM sleep with out-of-body experiences?
dr albert taylor
The Monroe Institute, I say they have done about the most extensive research that I can think of regarding altered states of consciousness, because that's basically what we're talking about.
If you wanted to, they have, I believe there's website information, or you can write to the Monroe Institute if you want to explore that.
unidentified
Good book.
Okay.
Appreciate it.
art bell
All right.
What about, you said it is an altered state of consciousness.
What about sensory deprivation?
What can you tell me about that?
dr albert taylor
Meaning like chambers?
art bell
That's right.
unidentified
Tanks.
art bell
That's right.
dr albert taylor
That will help you.
Some people, see, there's numerous ways to achieve an out-of-body.
Not everybody is going to go to sleep at night and have an OBE.
See, there's different ways.
There's sensory deprivation chambers where you're floating in the salt water, and you can have an altered state, or you can have an OBE in that state.
You know, and this is what's kind of remarkable, Art, is that even joggers who've jogged in the LA Marathon, while jogging, they get into this pattern, this rhythm.
unidentified
Yes.
dr albert taylor
And some of the joggers have reported all of a sudden floating above their bodies, watching themselves run.
That's called a spontaneous out-of-body experience.
art bell
Ah, that's my kind of OBE.
If I've got to run, I want to float.
dr albert taylor
I mean, if that doesn't tell you that you are not your body, I don't know what will.
It's just moving by itself.
art bell
I'm going to get very serious for a moment.
You mentioned something a little earlier about healing.
My wife is presently sitting in the other room with a fairly serious asthmatic attack.
She's an asthmatic.
Can that be helped?
dr albert taylor
Without being specific in saying asthma, I can share this with you.
Three, no, five years ago, I was diagnosed.
I had a major attack of multiple sclerosis.
And I had two major attacks and landed me in the hospital.
The prognosis was very bad.
I was supposed to have, I had equilibrium problems.
I wasn't able to even ride a bike, let alone drive a car.
I had eye jitters, double vision, and through MRIs, I had damage to the occipital lobe.
And my doctor said that eventually I would end up in a wheelchair.
Sending Healing Energy 00:00:58
dr albert taylor
I don't harp on this as much because everybody is different, but I can say this.
While out of body, you have incredible capability.
I mean, you have to find out what you are, but you have the capability to send healing energy to your body.
And I would say this, now, whatever way you want to explain it, here it is five years later, absolutely no eye jitter, absolutely no equilibrium problems.
I am not in a wheelchair.
I drive fine, and I haven't had any repeat attacks of MS whatsoever.
art bell
How did you do it?
dr albert taylor
Just, you know, when you're out of body, you're floating out of body, you send healing energy.
You think, I want to heal this body, and you think of sending healing energy to your body.
And that is the way it manifested in my life.
Out-Of-Body Experiences 00:05:08
dr albert taylor
And I don't regret it.
I'm fine.
art bell
So you thought yourself well?
unidentified
Yes.
dr albert taylor
Yes.
And I didn't even know it would work.
unidentified
You've been back for a while.
dr albert taylor
But tell you the truth, I had nothing to lose.
art bell
Well, that's right.
With that diagnosis, of course you did not.
dr albert taylor
Nothing at all.
unidentified
All right, Al.
art bell
Bottom of the hour.
Stay right there.
We'll be right back.
We're talking about OBE's out-of-body experiences, which are what follows sleep paralysis, which is what we've been talking about for days.
This is the man who knows.
He's Al Taylor.
He'll be right back.
unidentified
You're listening to what Bell somewhere in time on Premier Radio Networks.
Tonight, an encore presentation of Coast to Coast AM from September 25, 1996.
I see them blue from me and you.
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world.
Dogs say goodnight, and I think to myself, what a wonderful world, colors of the rainbow.
Premier Radio Networks presents Art Bell, Somewhere in Time.
Tonight's program originally aired September 25th 1996.
art bell
There may be more to this world than is immediately obvious.
That's what we're talking about this morning.
My guest is Al Taylor.
unidentified
I am a...
art bell
You too may learn something this morning.
His book is Soul Traveler.
It's the results of what begins as sleep paralysis.
We'll get back to it in a moment.
unidentified
Now we take you back to the night of September 25th, 1996, on Art Bell, Somewhere in Time.
art bell
Back now to Al Taylor Al, are you there?
dr albert taylor
Yes, I am all right.
art bell
I want to touch on something you sort of touched on a moment ago.
Then we'll go right back to the lines, and that is this, apparently, once you if you're able to give in and begin to do it, is such a joyful experience, is there some little danger that you'll get out there and won't want to come back.
dr albert taylor
Well, I would say yes, you would not want to come back, because it's like going to Disneyland and all of a sudden you know you have to leave.
You still have a lot of more rides you want to get on.
It is that it's so much fun.
But be aware that you can do it again and again.
Conscious OBEs Explained 00:15:45
dr albert taylor
I'm still having consciously controlled OBEs, and that's what my second book is going to be about is my continuing travel.
So you know you don't have to cram it all in one thing or or think I got to do it now.
You can continue to have these experiences throughout.
art bell
So no matter what, and this is a big sort of safety net for a lot of people, you are not going to ever get stuck in astral space.
dr albert taylor
No, no, you'll be recalled no matter how long you want to stay out.
You eventually will be recalled and you might come back so fast that you may feel like as if you've dropped from the ceiling or been slammed into your body.
art bell
Now, people who are in comas, where are they?
dr albert taylor
That's a good question, you know, and I would say that the majority of people probably are OBE.
Because once the body gets into the relaxed state, you're at a fork in the road.
You can do pretty much whatever you want to do, or you may just start floating upward and not want to.
That has happened to me numerous times, and that's what happened in the beginning when I didn't know what I was doing.
I would just float upward without trying to.
art bell
You're somebody with a physical malady.
Al, about three years ago, went to my room, took a two-hour nap.
When I woke up, my whole right side, the whole right side of my torso was paralyzed.
Doctors have no idea why.
Today, I'm about 90% back to normal.
Any thoughts?
dr albert taylor
See, then, that to me doesn't sound like the paralysis that I'm talking about.
This is like something else.
Because the paralysis that I'm talking about, all it takes is for someone to touch you or a loud noise or for you, like I said, to concentrate on moving a small part of your body to completely 100% reconnect.
If you are awake and you've had this paralysis and you wake up and you're still partially paralyzed, I would say that's definitely or more of a medical problem.
I'm not a doctor.
It definitely doesn't sound like the paralysis I'm referring to.
art bell
All right, here's a young lady in Los Angeles who wants to know.
She says, ask Albert about the possible meaning of that loud shrieking sound that usually occurs in my head during this sleep paralysis.
What is that sound?
dr albert taylor
Okay, if it's a loud shrieking sound, see, it generally manifests in a high-pitched sound or a roaring of the wind or a roaring sound or a water sound or a musical note or the buzzing.
And this is what's interesting is a lot of, and it goes into a lot of detail, is that when you achieve that ultra state or disconnect from the physical, you are very aware of people's thoughts.
And if you think about if every if you had 100 people in a room and they were all talking at the same time, it would be this horrific noise that you would not be able to understand.
And a lot of times, Robert Monroe, I think he called it the in-band noise.
A lot of times you hear thoughts.
I mean, and it can be incredible and loud.
I think that's pretty much possibly what the person may be experiencing.
unidentified
All right.
art bell
West of the Rockies, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
unidentified
Hi.
Hi, this is Peter from Lakewood.
Yes.
dr albert taylor
Hello, Peter.
unidentified
And I'm taking a little bit different bent than you are.
I was a Catholic monk trained in Tibetan meditation for many years.
I'm no longer religious, but I come from basically religious and now into the scientific.
So I'm kind of looking at it differently.
We were trained that there is no physical paralysis.
If you can, you've heard of that phrase, mind over matter, where we were trained soul over mind over matter.
And what the word that you used, this reconnection, we were taught that that's exactly what it is, but I think you're looking at it from a scientific perspective in that when you are in a relaxed state, and believe me, I agree with about 95% of everything you say.
When you're in this relaxed state, whether it's at night or sleeping or through meditation, this soul comes out or you come into this soul state.
And when you become conscious that you're in this soul state, you are, we're basically a physical being, and that's a mental and physical being, and you try to get your soul to control your physical, and you can't do it because that connection is not there.
The soul cannot tell the physical body to move.
So when you use the word paralysis, I think, you know, it's a catchy word, but when you, it's a negative word in that you can't move, there's negativity there.
Really, if you have this understanding that you're going into this soul state, then you don't have that fear.
And that's what we were trained.
And I'm a little bit nervous because I'm not used to talking on the phone, but can you see it a little bit from my perspective?
dr albert taylor
Well, see, your perspective is a more evolved understanding of the phenomenon.
But the average person that's out there and hasn't heard any of this, all they know is that they feel paralyzed.
unidentified
Exactly.
dr albert taylor
So to be able to tell or talk to this person about the experience that they're having, I think paralysis seems to be a kind of a universal word that people understand.
unidentified
I agree.
But I think that if you interject the eye, instead of an understanding that it's more of a soul state that they don't have to worry about.
art bell
Oh, now you've got to understand, Carla, that we've got to use language that addresses the average person.
They're sitting out there scared out of their wits about this.
And so we're trying to speak their language.
dr albert taylor
I'm right.
unidentified
Just one other thing, too, about have you ever done anything about OBE and I'm using your words, artwork?
dr albert taylor
You know, that's interesting that you would say that because I am an artist.
And if you see my book, I drew the cover of the book.
unidentified
Oh, my God.
dr albert taylor
I remember that.
unidentified
I'd like to buy that book.
dr albert taylor
And my portfolio, I'd say 50% of the artwork in my portfolio came to me in dreams and altered states.
unidentified
Interesting.
Yeah.
Well, the reason I brought that up is that, you know, as I said, mind over, excuse me, soul over mind over matter.
We were taught that when you get through meditation, when you get to this state of soul, of that you, we had priceless pieces of artwork at the Abbey where I was.
And as you probably know, being an artist, when you draw something, you as an artist are taking the essence like out of a tree and you're mixing it with your soul and then you're putting the essence of the tree, your interpretation of the essence of the tree and your soul on the canvas.
And so that's there forever.
Your soul and the essence of the tree are there.
Well, we were taught how to go out of this in this altered state to the soul state of ourselves and then go into the artwork to join with the soul of the artist and the essence of the tree.
And I was wondering, have you done any of that?
dr albert taylor
Well, you know, I didn't know that's what I was doing, but I would say it came so naturally that I didn't have to think about it.
I just would get these visions and pictures in my head of scene, and I would just feel compelled to draw them.
I drew the cover at work at one of the major aerospace companies in Southern California.
It came to me right in the middle of doing something that was related to my job, and I had to stop everything I was doing and draw the cover of the book.
art bell
Well, let's put off this National Defense SEI stuff for a while and draw a cover for a book.
dr albert taylor
Yeah, exactly.
I felt compelled.
art bell
Yeah, all right.
Here's something for you.
And tell me what this was.
When I was, let's say just many years ago now, I worked in the cable industry.
And one day I was up on a pole, you know, a pole.
We have cable on pole.
And I did what we called I burned a pole, which means I fell off a pole.
I came down on my butt and my elbow and I impacted L4 and L5 and I hurt my back seriously.
I spent about, well, at one period of a month on my back.
And this is going to sound strange, but when you're, when you get tired of watching TV, you get tired of doing what can be done from your back.
So I used to lie there and look at the spackles on the ceiling.
And you know what a spackled ceiling is like.
unidentified
Right.
art bell
And I would sit there concentrating and examining these stupid spackles on the ceiling, and I would begin to feel, I could actually begin to feel the beginning of an altered state.
unidentified
Right.
art bell
Looking at these dumb spackles.
And I would snap myself out of it.
But that was not during sleep.
It wasn't paralyzed.
I wasn't paralyzed.
But I began to feel the beginning of an altered state.
What was I doing?
dr albert taylor
Well, you know, basically, Art, when you begin to meditate and achieve an altered state, what you're doing is you're quieting the mind.
And when you quiet the mind, it is helpful to focus in on one specific thing.
And as you do, and that's what you were doing.
You were looking at this possibly one or two bumps on the ceiling.
I tell people that you can also do the same thing and have something manifest where you have an actual experience by focusing on maybe the number one or a triangle or a square or a circle, just something very, very simple.
Because like I said, when you quiet the mind, you do have these ultra states or these experiences.
art bell
All right.
First on caller line, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
unidentified
Hi.
Good morning, Art.
Good morning, Al.
Good morning.
Good morning, Show.
art bell
Where are you, sir?
unidentified
I'm in Saugus.
art bell
Saugus, California.
California, all right?
unidentified
Yeah.
Art, first, regarding your wife, I read on a journal several years ago that that type of asthma can be cured or helped with hypnosis.
If you find a licensed hypnotist, they could maybe help your wife's allergies.
art bell
That's another altered state, isn't it?
unidentified
Yes, sir, it is, and it works.
In my opinion, and I agree with everything that Al says, is that the out-of-body experience is a type of hypnosis.
I mean, you are actually self-hypnotizing yourself to relax and then projecting yourself out.
art bell
Is it not, Al, a type of self- I would say yes.
unidentified
Yes.
dr albert taylor
And if you think about it, an altered state of consciousness is sort of a hypnotic trance or something.
I would say yes, definitely.
Something I want to mention, Art, because there's a lot of people out there who are having OBEs or are close to having them and aren't aware of the clues and symptoms.
And I want to mention a few things that people will maybe able to relate to.
And I ask this in all my lectures that I do up and down the coast and into various places in the country.
One of those is that if you fly in your dream, whether you think you're really having a flying dream or not, that is a clue that you may be having an OBE or close to one.
Another one, one of the callers mentioned vibration.
See, being in Southern California, all of us feel vibrations out here.
But this is more like an oscillation where it's steady.
And that's a clue.
Another one is if you hear the loud noises that we spoke of, the buzzing or the roaring.
Another one is the paralysis.
And this is something that I wasn't aware of and scared me to death.
Is this you hear your name being called?
art bell
Oh, I don't know if I'd like that.
dr albert taylor
Yeah, well, that's kind of scary.
But a lot of people have heard their names being called right before drifting off to sleep or right in the morning when they're about to wake up.
And this is the last one that may be a clue, is if you wake up twice.
Now, that means you wake up, you think you're awake, and you may even go to the bathroom or walk around the house or fall out of the bed and then suddenly realize that you never did any of these things, that you were really sleeping.
art bell
So if you wake up and you hear Al Al Taylor, Al Al over here, Mr. Taylor over here.
dr albert taylor
Well, yeah, you know, it's kind of like that doctor.
art bell
Oh, yeah?
Well, I'm out of here.
dr albert taylor
People hear their names being called quite often because that's your guide calling you or angel, whatever you want to call it.
art bell
Well, if that's my God, I'm not going.
dr albert taylor
No, not God, guy.
I said guide.
art bell
If that's my guide, I'm not going.
I want my guide to say something like, hey, Art, good to see you.
Want to take a little trip?
Something like that.
dr albert taylor
Well, they're going to approach you in a way that is least threatening.
So if that's what you want, that may be what you'll get.
unidentified
I'm looking.
art bell
I'll look forward to that.
Wildcard line, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
unidentified
Hello.
Is that who it is when I hear my name being called?
You said that.
Wow, that is.
I've had that happen a few times and I look around like, God, where'd that come from?
That's it.
Wow, that's really weird.
Because I hear a roar like from an airplane.
And I've had a lot of the symptoms that you have talked about.
But the name thing, whoa, that just gave me chills.
Anyway, I've been having these LBEs since I was about five years old.
art bell
Where are you, young lady?
unidentified
I'm Debbie from Loudana Beach, California.
dr albert taylor
Hi, Debbie.
unidentified
Hi, Al.
And the last, I had one about a year ago.
And I guess some people would call them recurring dreams.
And I've always had these since I was five years old.
I guess they're the same thing.
Would you say they were the same thing?
dr albert taylor
Reoccurring dreams.
unidentified
Yeah, an out-of-body experience.
dr albert taylor
Not necessarily.
Not necessarily.
unidentified
Okay.
dr albert taylor
If you can go into more detail, maybe I can understand a little further.
unidentified
Well, I've had like six of these where I constantly, when I go to sleep, it's like a soap opera.
It's a continuing thing.
You know, I'll meet certain people and we'll hug.
Or in this one dream, I meet this little boy who's in a hospital in a bed.
And his brother's standing next to him.
And we'll hug every time we meet.
And they'll say, how come you haven't visited us for all this time?
You know, why don't you come more often?
And it's not like we're talking, but it's more like we're thinking to each other.
And I remember like telling them or thinking to them that it's hard to get to them all the time.
And the little boy, he reached out the last time I had this.
I think it's an out-of-body experience.
art bell
Well, this is weird.
Now, I've never heard of a dream like that where they're expecting you or they've seen you before and they're welcoming you back.
unidentified
Yeah, I've had like six of these since I was five years old, and I still to this day keep having the same six.
art bell
It's not like a normal dream, is it, Al?
dr albert taylor
No, not really.
You know, and there are some possible explanations of what you may be experiencing.
unidentified
Okay, okay, well, let me finish.
And so anyway, the last time that I had this one certain one where I see this little boy in the hospital, he put his hand on my chest.
And I have in the past had a heart murmur, an extra heartbeat, I guess.
And I've had EKGs to show this, and I've been on a channel all, which is they treat the extra heartbeat and high blood pressure with this medication.
Well, the little boy put his hand on my heart and he said, I want your heart to be healed.
Heart Healing Encounter 00:04:45
unidentified
And all of a sudden I just shot up in bed and ever since that day I have not had my heart problem.
And I immediately went off the medication and I have never had that problem since.
dr albert taylor
Wonderful.
It was so neat.
Wonderful.
unidentified
And I haven't been able to get back to him since, but I really want to go back and thank him.
dr albert taylor
That's it.
That's very interesting.
unidentified
I'll go in and share that with you and see what you what you thought about that.
dr albert taylor
I've heard some similar stories where people have gone and experienced things with a child or their mother or a dead aunt or whatever.
You know, guys come, guys are there for you, but they don't always present themselves exactly as you would think.
I guess if they feel that they are a male entity or female, they may present themselves to you as a child, so you feel less threatened, so you feel comfortable.
And, you know, that happens quite often.
And the fact that it manifested physically by healing you also tells me that it's possibly an angel kind of encounter or a guy type of thing.
Or it could be something, someone who is that, you know, because I believe in reincarnation.
Or it could be a soulmate of yours that is still on the other side, that is caring for you or loves you and is able to help you.
unidentified
Boy, that would be funny.
art bell
Well, maybe you'll get back there, ma'am.
Al, how are you doing?
You still awake?
dr albert taylor
I'm still, I'm fine.
art bell
Yeah, you do.
dr albert taylor
That's my favorite subject.
art bell
I know you sound awfully awake.
dr albert taylor
Yeah, I am.
art bell
All right, in that case, let's have you stick around.
The phones are going absolutely berserk, as is my fax machine.
So stay right where you are.
There's more to come.
Al Taylor is my guest.
Spackles on the wall.
unidentified
How about that?
You're listening to Art Bell Somewhere in Time.
Tonight, featuring a replay of Coast to Coast AM from September 25th, 1996.
If I was walking in your shoes, I couldn't worry now.
While you and your friends are wearing about me, I'm now at the deck of...
Smoking cigarettes and watching captains.
Now don't tell me I've nothing to do.
Last night I dressed in pale-pretended hotels on the town.
I saw the dark and dream apart just about the swingers down.
Please don't give a thought to me.
I'll let him start.
You can always find me here that have quite a fire.
We're in
time.
Tonight's program originally aired September 25th, 1996.
art bell
This is kind of some nice traveling music, isn't it?
Astral Travel, Travel on the Astral Plane, Soul Traveler is the name of my guest, guest book, Al Taylor.
And he'll be back in a moment.
unidentified
Now we take you back to the night of September 25th, 1996, on Art Bell, Somewhere in Time.
Dark Sides of OBE 00:14:06
art bell
Well, we're going to play a little hardball here, Al.
unidentified
All right.
art bell
Here's the facts.
I'll just read it to you as is.
Art, while your guest is very interesting relating his experiences on OBE or about OBE, I feel he is not telling us about the dark side of this.
When you have an OBE, your soul leaves your body.
There are disembodied souls that are either lost or evil.
And if you're not careful or don't know how to protect yourself, they will try to occupy your body while you are traveling.
Please have Al tell us about this.
John in Eagle River, Alaska.
unidentified
Interesting.
dr albert taylor
You know, I've heard that, but to me, seeing that I have done it so many times, I mean, not just once, not just twice, not even just 50 times, so many times, and none of those things, negative things have happened, I can only share with someone some experience that I've had.
And I haven't had anyone try to take my body.
I would say this, though, that all spirits you meet aren't forthright and all-knowing and angelic.
Of course, they're going to have their human personalities and traits, and they may try to play games with you or something like that.
But you've got to realize that you're no more defenseless.
I mean, you're basically the same as they are.
art bell
And let's try this.
Aside from somebody occupying your body, like a burglar sneaking in when you're not home, can there be any harm done to you in the astral plane?
In other words, let's say that you're traveling about and good old Saddam Hussein happens to be traveling about.
Comical example or not so.
And can you meet somebody with evil intent?
dr albert taylor
I would say you could meet evil, you know, you can use that word.
I would say that maybe with intent that wasn't in your own best interest, but you have an up on them.
The thing that they, especially if it's a deceased person or spirit, you can always return to the physical.
They can't.
And you're not that defenseless.
If you really understand who and what you are and who and what they are, you'll realize that you're very much on equal ground.
art bell
How do you discern the difference between the deceased traveling about and other OBEs?
dr albert taylor
And that's kind of interesting.
And it's not something that I'll say, okay, you know, look for the red light on the forehead or something like that.
It's not like that.
You know things that you don't know in the physical.
You're open to understanding and thoughtful forms and experiences that are almost indescribing.
It's indescribable.
It's very difficult to tell you how you get this knowing, but you do understand what is what, or at least you get an inkling of what is what.
And through that knowing, I'd say, that will enable you to deal with the situation accordingly.
art bell
So it's not like they're wearing a little label.
unidentified
No, no.
dr albert taylor
But you know, understanding how to explain what that understanding is.
art bell
Okay, in other words, in that plane.
dr albert taylor
You don't have one.
art bell
In that plane, you just know.
dr albert taylor
Yes, you do have an understanding of what's going on.
art bell
All right.
First time caller line, you're on the air with Al Taylor, huh?
dr albert taylor
Another thing, let me mention this real quick, Art, is you can access your higher self in an instant in that state.
So always, if you feel fearful, always ask for guidance from your higher self.
art bell
All right, I do have a question about chemicals and several other questions, but I'm going to defer to callers.
Somebody all the way from Honolulu, Hawaii.
Hello there.
unidentified
Hello, Art.
art bell
How's Honolulu this morning?
unidentified
Oh, it is beautiful as always.
art bell
Of course.
Don't you guys ever get tired of that?
I mean, unrelenting beauty.
unidentified
It's just terrible.
I wake up and I see the mountains and you smell the flowers and every day it's just awful.
art bell
Paradise, paradise, paradise.
dr albert taylor
Do you get tired of rubbing it in?
unidentified
Never, never.
art bell
All right.
Anyway, you're on the air with Al.
unidentified
Great.
Good evening, gentlemen.
I was so excited to turn on the show tonight and find out what the topic is.
It's something that I've been experiencing since I was about 16 years old.
And you can't really talk to your friends about it.
You know, I've spoken to my husband several times, and sometimes he raises an eyebrow, and I've kind of cut that a little bit.
But I've been having OBEs since I was about 16, like I said, a couple times a month, and I wasn't quite sure what to do with them, and sometimes you get scared, and I didn't know a lot about it.
And I want to say, too, I do have a couple questions, but I do want to tell people that many times I've had the dreaded paralysis also.
Scared the bejeebies out of me.
And sometimes I'd go straight through, and sometimes I would just be caught in that paralysis.
And I really didn't know how they were connected.
And then I started reading about astral projection and trying to get some answers.
And I read the most important thing.
I read that when the paralysis happens, calm down.
Instead of trying to fight it, and you get frantic and you want to wake up and you want to move something and it gets crazy, relax.
Right.
And you go right through.
How do you do it?
How do you do it?
art bell
I'm asking you both.
How do you do that?
I get to that stage, that frightening stage, and it's easy to mouth the words relax, but how do you do it?
dr albert taylor
Well, I can say this.
Before we spoke today or had this program, you didn't know much about it.
Now you know a little bit more than you knew before, so the next time you experience it, I think you will react a little bit differently.
Or even maybe there's a third or fourth time.
art bell
If I can trust you, Al.
unidentified
Do you know how important that is, what you just said?
I swear, it's like magic, okay?
I tried to remember that before I went to bed, and I have them spontaneously so often.
And you try to remember it, but you can't.
You're too scared.
Right.
And about six months ago, the first time, it was, like I said, just like magic.
I was paralyzed, and someone was coming towards me.
That happens sometimes.
I was so damn scared.
I was panicking.
And all of a sudden, I remembered what I read.
Just all of a sudden, I said, calm down.
Just calm down.
And in remembering it, and all my faculties about me just remembered it, and I just went straight forward and came out the other side.
It was the most exciting thing that I've experienced.
I was so excited with all the possibilities.
I was like, I'm here.
I'm here.
Oh, my God.
I looked at my hands, and I saw myself, and I woke myself up.
dr albert taylor
Wonderful.
unidentified
And I've done that.
dr albert taylor
I've done that.
I've done that.
Too much enthusiasm, too much excitement.
That brings you back real quick.
unidentified
It sure does.
It sure does.
And now, like I said, this was about six months ago that I actually was to the point where I can control it, that I really could just calm myself down and go through.
And one interesting thing, I've not had the paralysis since.
And I don't know if that's that I just now maybe.
I just go through and sometimes when I go to sleep I try to concentrate and I actually feel myself going there and I get really excited and I go calm down, calm down, and I just, and I just slip right through and there I am.
dr albert taylor
When you feel excited, your heart starts beating up oh, yeah and yeah, that usually keeps you grounded yeah, and then when you calm down, then you release, no, no offense Al, but no offense Al.
art bell
But if enthusiasm keeps you from getting airborne, how do you ever travel?
dr albert taylor
Well you have to find the balance from fear to excitement.
art bell
You're a very enthusiastic person about all of this.
dr albert taylor
It just took a lot of practice art.
Just coming to that door like that kitten, coming to the door, you know, being frightened, getting enthusiastic, being excited.
I'm a calf person.
art bell
That works for you.
I'm a cat person.
I can relate.
Do you have a question, ma'am?
unidentified
Yes, actually, one more comment is that the best time seems to be during light sleep for me when I when I wake up in the morning and I can doze off for just a few minutes and it happens then or for a quick nap in the afternoon.
I sometimes go in, lay down for a quick nap.
I go right there, fly around for a while, come back.
It's amazing.
And one thing I wanted to ask, a couple quick questions, is I can do what I call being in both worlds.
And is that unusual?
I'll be flying, which is my favorite thing to do.
It's just the most amazing thing.
And I'll hear the trash truck out front.
Right.
And I'm lying there while I'm flying, and I go, oh, and I curse the trash truck.
And I say, please, hurry to leave, do not wake me up.
It's the most bizarre thing.
dr albert taylor
No, I mentioned that earlier on the show.
You're not totally disconnected.
You're very aware of the room, very aware of your breathing, the temperature, the sounds around your body.
unidentified
Trust me.
dr albert taylor
But yet you can be totally in another, your consciousness can be in a totally different location.
unidentified
Yeah, it's an amazing thing that the more I learn.
But I want to ask about people and the spirit guides.
How do I, I don't know enough about it.
I'm trying to learn some about it.
But are people, I've had so many experiences while I'm in the paralyzed state that there are people there and they scare me.
I've had an old woman sitting there and several other people coming to me or standing there.
And I get so frightened when I know they're there with the paralysis and I just get so just so, so scared that I try to get out of it and I do wake myself up.
And as a matter of fact, some months ago, I got so scared at one point, I stopped myself from having them all together.
And it was terrible.
But since I've not experienced the paralysis, I've not had that happen.
So my question is about other people.
Who are they?
And what are they doing in my room?
dr albert taylor
They could be a multitude of people, deceased relatives, grandmothers, aunts, astral travelers, guides, angelic beings.
But the thing is, is that even through your experiences, have you been harmed in any way?
unidentified
That's one thing that I wanted to say.
As harmed I've been through the paralysis, I've never felt the need to look back at my body.
I've looked at my hands and looked to see that, yes, I'm here.
art bell
The question was, though, have you been harmed ever?
unidentified
I have never, ever, I've never had anybody do anything or threaten me in any way.
Actually, I kind of tend to stay in my own little world.
dr albert taylor
And what are you afraid of?
unidentified
Not a darn thing I'm afraid of.
Not a darn thing I've ever felt.
dr albert taylor
Nothing has happened.
unidentified
I've never felt scared about it.
dr albert taylor
You've survived it numerous times.
art bell
All right, well, there you go.
All right.
Well, so thus far, and it's true, I have yet to talk to one person who has said they are harmed in any way.
Listen, I let it slide a little earlier, and I think the fellow dropped off the line.
dr albert taylor
We're going to talk about crystal quartz now?
art bell
Well, chemicals in general.
Chemicals produce altered states.
Chemicals produce sleep disturbance.
What do you say about chemicals?
dr albert taylor
Well, this is what I tell people.
I believe that chemicals, illegal drugs, and legal drugs like alcohol, things like that, inhibit or sometimes prevent you from having an out-of-body experience.
Sometimes, but there are some drugs that people have claimed that they have had these experiences.
But what I say is this is a very, very natural thing.
And you don't want to do something that's possibly going to cause you some physical damage to your body.
Because it's very easy to do it very naturally.
And if you do it naturally, you can do it over and over again without worrying about any ramifications like being locked up.
art bell
So just say I don't need it.
dr albert taylor
So yeah, you don't need it.
I stay away from it.
Leave it alone.
You don't need it.
You can do it naturally.
Even alcohol prevents it.
art bell
All right, this is back to the ground floor, but explain to this gentleman.
I've got a facts.
Is it possible to teach myself to do this if I've never even had a sleep paralysis episode before?
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
dr albert taylor
Because like I said, just because you haven't had the paralysis doesn't mean that some of these other things that I mentioned, the flying, the buzzing, the vibration, those are all still symptoms of the same thing.
art bell
Well, that's not part of it.
But I mean, how would you bring it on, I guess, is what he's asking.
dr albert taylor
Well, in my book, Chapter 14, I list about five different techniques that I've not only tested on myself, I've tested on all my students, on my family, my mother, my son, and I have a lot of success with these techniques.
Try one until you feel very comfortable with it.
Another thing, since we're all up early in the morning right now, one thing that I found that works for me, too, is sleep deprivation.
And since we're all up now, I challenge or I suggest that those of you who are going back to sleep after this show, try to lay there and relax your body one muscle at a time, like I said, and see if your body falls asleep.
That's a great way to induce it.
art bell
You know, as I said earlier, I was doing that because I had real trouble, and somebody sent me a letter and said, try that.
Just concentrate on your finger, relax it, then your arm, then your body, then your neck, then your, you know, go right.
Start if you want to, start at your toe and move upward, but one piece at a time, force it to relax.
dr albert taylor
Right.
art bell
And before you're ever done, you'll be asleep.
dr albert taylor
Exactly.
That's what happens.
That's what happens.
You may hear yourself snoring.
art bell
That's actually happened.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
unidentified
Hi.
How you doing, Art?
art bell
Okay, where are you?
unidentified
San Diego.
art bell
Yes, sir.
unidentified
I'm the guy that was talking about Crystal.
art bell
Oh, you are?
Yeah, well, you.
Don't Fear the OBE 00:10:09
art bell
I kept you on the line.
unidentified
I'll be good.
art bell
Well, all right, you kind of got your answer then.
unidentified
Yes, I did.
And I'm going to give her best advice.
I mean, I'm in the Marine Corps, so I don't do that.
But the thing is, don't be afraid.
Don't fear it.
dr albert taylor
Don't fear the OBE experience.
unidentified
Right.
dr albert taylor
Not the drug experience.
Well, no, she's off with that.
That's good.
But yeah, no, don't fear it.
And don't let other people tell you to fear it.
Because, see, some people will say, well, that's this and that's demonic.
See, everybody becomes an expert, even though they haven't had the experience.
Don't let them tell you that it's a fearful, horrible, demonic, crazy thing.
It is not.
It is very natural.
And be calm about it and tell her to enjoy it.
Tell her if she can do this, she's very, very fortunate and very, very blessed.
art bell
I've got a fax here from a Reverend who says he's not at all disturbed by what you're discussing and that those of a religious nature ought not to be.
unidentified
Right.
art bell
But a lot of the flock are, aren't they?
They're terrified of this.
They feel it is of the devil.
It is of the darkness.
It's not.
I can't believe that it would be.
I can't believe that if we do have a soul, and I do believe we have one, that there's anything wrong with examining it, with trying to get in touch with it, or traveling with it.
I mean, what can be so dark and bad about that?
dr albert taylor
Well, you know, the thing that we're talking about here, Art, is fear.
And that's really all it is.
I had a reverend back in the Bible Belt say about, he said, Albert Taylor must have been possessed by demons to have written this book.
unidentified
I was shocked.
dr albert taylor
I didn't realize that people still did that in the 90s.
But my only response to that was I could respect that a lot more if at least he'd read my book.
You know, this doesn't threaten anybody's religion because in all religions it talks about that we are spirits, that we are sparks of God.
And just because, I mean, people did it in the Bible and in other books in the past, that doesn't mean that that is only for people who've lived thousands of years ago.
No, we are still the same spiritual beings.
Yes, we can still do these things.
This is nothing new.
This subject has been hidden in the occult category for so long, and that's where it got all these fearful condemnations.
But it's out of that category now into a new category, and it's okay.
As a matter of fact, I think it would reconfirm any spiritual belief or religious belief that you may have.
art bell
Well, you know, Al, about 100 years ago, we'd have put you up on this big piece of wood and we'd put kindling wood under you and we'd have lit you up.
dr albert taylor
And the worst thing that would have happened to me is I would have ended up in a permanently out-of-body state.
art bell
Well, that's exactly right.
Wild card line, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
unidentified
Hello.
Yes, hello, Art.
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
Hi, this is Dawn in Pinole, California.
Yes.
Hello, Don.
A pleasure to speak with you, and a pleasure to meet you, Al.
Great.
dr albert taylor
Thank you.
unidentified
I have a question.
dr albert taylor
I had an out-of-body experience about 10 years ago, and I did it intentionally after reading Robert Monroe's book.
And I tried for about a year to have one, and you fall asleep 99% of the time.
unidentified
That's good.
You were close.
Oh, yes.
dr albert taylor
And I finally achieved it.
unidentified
And after leaving my body, let me tell you, seeing your own body laying there is quite a shock.
Yes.
Yes, it is.
I managed to stay out of my body.
dr albert taylor
And I was attempting to travel somewhere else.
unidentified
I wanted to go to a different place to kind of prove to myself that I did it.
And another entity entered my space.
This entity looked, it appeared to be my mother.
It looked like my mother.
And this entity was scolding me.
You know, yelling at me, kind of like, what are you doing?
Really?
dr albert taylor
And I'm curious, could Angel talk to you, please?
unidentified
Yes, yes.
My mother is alive.
dr albert taylor
You could say guardian angel.
I could say guide, scolding you meaning...
unidentified
Well, I never felt threatened.
You know, it...
It would be just like if your mother was yelling at you.
You know she would never hurt you, but you could tell she was upset with you.
dr albert taylor
Yeah, and it came to you in an image, like I mentioned before, and something that you would not fear, unless you fear your mother.
But it came to you in an image that you would not fear, yet it was being authoritative.
art bell
You mean something like, you get back in that body right now.
unidentified
Precisely, precisely.
dr albert taylor
Sometimes they govern our experiences because you're not ready.
And sometimes they limit, they'll hold you in, as a matter of fact.
They'll keep you in the body to keep you from getting out because you're not quite ready to experience something.
Or maybe you'll have an experience that may terrify you to the point where you'll never want to attempt it again.
Well, it's the strangest thing.
unidentified
After that one time, I am still interested in the subject, but I've never had the desire to do it again.
art bell
Well, maybe you should let that fear go.
Now, I'll say this.
You used the cat analogy earlier, the chicken, I think, right?
You know, I've got house cats.
I don't let them go outside.
I think that's bad.
Cats die.
They get squished on the road and eaten by coyotes here in the desert.
And so when my cat wanders outside the door, I usually say, get back in the house right now.
So maybe his mom was, in essence, saying not to him.
dr albert taylor
That makes perfectly good sense to me, Art.
That's what it sounds like to me.
art bell
All right, Al, stay right where you are.
Al Taylor is my guest.
We're talking about OBEs and sleep paralysis.

And on occasion, you can see this wonderful long orange streak as the shuttle flies across the horizon.
Sometimes, if you're close enough, you'll hear a gigantic boom.
But this is the shuttle warning.
About the next 20 minutes.
Within the next 20 minutes, you should probably begin looking about now.

Even though I think the middle class is being eroded away because most people are doing relatively okay, we haven't seen that balance of power shift yet.
If that gets higher, I think we've got a real problem.

A Girl's Out-of-Body Experience 00:15:55
art bell
We're looking at a very historic time beginning to emerge right now.
unidentified
Now we take you back to the night of September 25th, 1996, on Art Bell, Somewhere in Time.
art bell
Dear Art, I send you this message because I love you.
Many babies die in their crib because of early OBE, the medical term for its crib death.
My cousin died in his sleep.
He always talked about a strange death-like feeling trying to take him in his sleep.
This led him to the occult.
He told us one day he's going to give in to the feeling and leave his body.
He's now dead.
He died in his sleep.
dr albert taylor
You want my comment?
unidentified
Sure.
dr albert taylor
Well, you know, like I said, unfortunately, there's a lot of people who aren't really experiencers who have opinions on this particular subject.
And what really is interesting about this type of thing is it's generally motivated by fear.
Now, this person may, I mean, I have had a cousin who had passed away who was able to travel out of body, but just because he was able to travel out of body had nothing to do with the timing of his death.
Another thing is you've got to realize that there is a plan.
Nothing happens by accident.
There is a plan to this whole thing.
And just because you travel out of body doesn't mean that that plan is going to be canceled out and now you're going to die and everyone that was supposed to benefit from your life and that you were supposed to help now have to do without.
It doesn't work that way.
There is higher guidance.
It's not a human thing.
It's more of a spiritual thing.
And I would say even a God thing.
There is a plan.
And you have to have kind of faith in that plan.
I mean, everybody, if you're whatever religion, you're going to have faith of some sort.
And there is a plan.
Everything happens exactly as it should.
art bell
Well, I think they will understand that.
First time caller line, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
Hi.
unidentified
Hi, this is Christy from the Trade Cities, Washington.
Yes.
Christy.
And I, when I was 16, I used to have out-of-body experiences.
And with the buzzing you were talking about, I didn't really, I had that, but I also, after I left my body, I'd be like up above, I felt like, and I felt like I was spinning around really fast.
I don't know what that was.
And I didn't really know a whole lot about it, but I didn't really go anywhere.
I kind of went around my house and that, the simple things.
And then after I read about it and I started getting into it more, something else started happening.
I would go into, you know, the paralysis and go beyond that.
And I would go into like a dream.
It wasn't like an out-of-body experience.
It was more, you know, like a dream.
Weird things would go on, you know, just how dreams are.
But I could control it like an out-of-body experience.
And then they started turning into like nightmares.
And then I would try to come out of it to wake up.
And I would have to say, I found, you know, I thought if I said, you know, I want to wake up, that I could, you know, come out of it.
And I couldn't say it.
And then finally if I did say it, I would think that I woke up, you know, I would, you know, sit up in bed, but the dream, you know, the nightmare would continue.
And I'd have to do this five or six times before I would actually wake up.
Uh-uh.
dr albert taylor
So in the beginning, you said you could control it.
unidentified
Yeah.
dr albert taylor
And then when it became a nightmare, did you forget you could control it?
Did you panic?
unidentified
I couldn't control what else went on.
I could control what I did.
dr albert taylor
When you say you couldn't, did you try?
unidentified
Did I try to control what they did?
No, I didn't.
I didn't.
dr albert taylor
See, you know, it's kind of like you're driving down the freeway and a car cuts in front of you.
And instead of using the wheel to maneuver out from the way of the car, meaning change lanes, what you did is you panicked and put your hands over your eyes.
unidentified
Yeah.
dr albert taylor
If you thought about it, you still have control of the car.
You still can do stuff.
But you forgot that you had that control because of what happened visually or whatever your senses, your sensory septal, your senses picked up.
You still have control.
Even when you think it's a horrifying dream.
In the beginning, when I had lucid dreams, I would dream, you know, I'm afraid of ghosts.
At least I have been up until recently.
And I would have dreams of ghosts chasing me or haunted mansions and things like that.
And all of a sudden, I would be very aware, oh yeah, I'm dreaming.
And being very aware of that, I was dreaming, I would just change the dream.
And I wouldn't forget, because of the terrifying experience, that I could.
And I did.
And you can always fly away.
You can even change the situation.
Another thing you mentioned that's very interesting is we haven't touched on is that when you get into the paralysis, there are so many forks in the road that you, there's so many avenues that you can choose.
One of them is creating a dream.
And I've done that numerous times.
And that's when you relax and let go.
And instead of rising or above, you start visualizing things.
And you can create a dream to experience.
But you've got to remember, you are the actor and director of this play.
You haven't lost control in any way, shape, or form.
So don't forget that just because something happens that you didn't expect.
unidentified
Okay.
That's interesting.
dr albert taylor
You haven't lost any control.
You just forgot you did.
unidentified
Okay.
Can I ask one more question?
Yes.
Okay.
Since then, since that happened, it scares the hell out of me.
And I kept myself from having it.
And that was two years ago.
And I haven't had one since.
But recently, I began having the paralysis again.
And I've made myself wake up because I'm scared that that's going to happen again.
dr albert taylor
Are you finished?
unidentified
Yes.
dr albert taylor
Well, just because, you know, the fearful thoughts are what causes your fearful experiences.
And hopefully, read my book.
You'll see I had some really incredible fearful experiences.
And I survived every last one of them.
And after years of traveling, I look forward to traveling out of body more than anything you can imagine.
And I recommend it for anybody.
And I'm okay.
And I understand about my fearful thoughts.
The more I understood about how my fears created my experiences, it took practice.
It wasn't like a light switch.
It took practice for me to understand that and to calm my fear.
And the more and more I calmed my fear, the less and less I was having situations that were frightening me.
And the more and more open I became and the further and further I would go.
art bell
That makes sense.
Wild Carline, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
Good morning.
unidentified
Good morning again, Al.
This is Jake from Plantation, Florida.
Hi, Jake.
I spoke to you before the show, but I figured that didn't count.
I'd like to say that this of all programs in the last three or four months at my station down here, which went off the air at six, but I did want to speak to Al.
art bell
This is the finest program that I've experienced.
unidentified
I haven't heard them all, but I've heard many.
dr albert taylor
That's wonderful.
unidentified
There's almost an entire correspondence between what Al has been saying and what I have been learning in the past 20 years through my connection with a group based out of a town a little south of Palazzo, Arizona.
I would just caution Al.
Well, not so much that I'm cautioning.
You had a guest last week, Art, who said, Luiji Board, throw them out of the house.
That's right.
Very often, we get wrapped up in playing with the powers that come to us as we develop.
It's very important, I believe, and many do, not to become attached to the powers and not to be attached to the journey to the ultimate realization of beingness and the totality of all.
These are only stops on the way, but we shouldn't be unduly interested in what we could manifest on the way to the total, to the experience of total self-awareness.
art bell
Okay, does that make sense to you, Al?
unidentified
Yes, yes.
dr albert taylor
It's important to stay grounded.
You can't just abandon all things, all responsibility, and focus on just fascinal travel or having OBE experiences.
It's definitely important to stay grounded because, first of all, you have to live and exist in the physical world.
art bell
So it's not the be-all and end-all.
It's simply an explanation of something that is real.
I mean, we've been hearing from these people all night long, so it's obviously real.
dr albert taylor
Exactly.
unidentified
All right.
dr albert taylor
Easy to enhance, not to dominate.
unidentified
You're right.
art bell
There you are.
East of the Rockies.
You're on the air with Al Taylor.
unidentified
Hi.
Hi, my name is Hal.
I'm calling from Omaha, Nebraska.
Hi.
dr albert taylor
Hi, Al.
unidentified
Yeah, well, it's more of a comment, but one time I heard, you know, how you're talking about the voices calling your name.
Well, I heard that.
It sounded an awful lot like my grandfather.
And he died about six years before this happened.
And then, you know, I just think I was hearing things because I was up for 36 hours before that.
So I went to bed, and then I felt like something just grabbed me and pulled me from my body.
This is what it felt like.
And then it was more of a dream, per se.
And then I saw a dark-haired lady and a little blonde-haired girl.
And the strangest thing is, now that I'm married, my wife has black hair, and my daughter has blonde hair.
And it looks just like the little girl in the dream.
And it just, I don't know if it has anything to do with it.
dr albert taylor
It has a lot to do with it.
unidentified
Like when you're talking about how you were hearing, you know, you hear your name called and then the roar too when I fell asleep.
Just the loudest roar I've ever heard.
It's something just like when I was in the military with the jet engine.
art bell
So what did this man visit his future?
dr albert taylor
Well, no, he didn't visit his future.
I'd say the little girl from his future visited him.
And you said you saw the blonde girl prior to her being born.
Yeah, and see, she existed in spirit form, and she presented herself to you as you would see her in life.
They do that all the time because they're, like I said, they pick their parents.
Yeah, so she was hugging around you checking you out.
unidentified
Like you were talking about that, how you pick your parents and so on.
dr albert taylor
Maybe like they push you towards your mate.
No, no, no.
They don't push you towards, because it's all an agreement.
You're not forced to do anything.
Oh, collaboration.
unidentified
Yeah, I understand what you're saying, but like the woman in my dream or whatever, looks just like my wife also.
dr albert taylor
And maybe she was helping you to guide you.
That's what I was saying.
What you already wanted to do, what you agreed to do.
unidentified
Yeah, that's what I was trying to convey.
Yeah.
Like did you enjoy the little paper?
dr albert taylor
That happens a lot.
I I've known a lot of people who have seen um children in dreams and then all of a sudden they and then they have a little boy or they know they're going to have a little boy and sure enough they do and the kid grows up to look just like the child they saw in their dreams.
That happens all the time.
Because like I said, they come to you and they stay around you observing you and to pick you, to choose you.
unidentified
Okay.
Well I have to say.
art bell
Thank you very much.
Well that that was just fine.
West of the Rockies you're on the air with Al Taylor.
unidentified
Hi.
Good morning, gentlemen.
Good morning.
art bell
Where are you, sir?
unidentified
I am in Ocean Beach.
All right.
Okay.
May I give my last name?
art bell
First time callers call area 702-727-1222.
Okay, well, no, he just disqualified himself.
I didn't want a last name and he couldn't resist, I guess.
First time caller line, you're on the air.
How are you doing?
unidentified
Fine, how are you?
art bell
Fine.
Where are you?
unidentified
I'm in Tennessee.
art bell
Tennessee.
unidentified
My name's Mary.
dr albert taylor
Hi, Mary.
unidentified
Hi.
I want to share an experience with you that my daughter had eight years ago.
She was five years old, and her father had passed away.
And one morning she woke up and she said, Mommy, I went flying last night.
And I do this all the time, so I understood what was going on.
And I said, where did you go?
And she said, Mommy, I saw Jesus.
And I started asking her questions.
And I said, what did he look like?
She said, Mommy, he had a purple robe on, and he told me that everything was going to be just fine.
But I just, I thought this was a wonderful experience, you know, for her.
And people think, you know, I tell them this story and they say, oh, that's all dust demons and everything else.
And I said, how can you say that when she saw Jesus?
But it's like now I talk to her and she doesn't want to talk about it.
I think it scares her now.
dr albert taylor
And you reinforce it with her?
unidentified
Yes, yes.
I tell her everything's fine.
And also, I wanted to ask a question.
When this happens to me, it seems like it's all the time.
And my husband will try to wake me up.
And it's like I just plop back in my body.
And for the whole day, I feel tired.
art bell
I have a question.
How does he know it's happening?
unidentified
Pardon?
art bell
How does he know it's happening to you?
dr albert taylor
Let me ask you, do you moan when this is happening?
unidentified
Yeah.
Uh-huh.
dr albert taylor
And that's how he knows?
unidentified
Uh-huh.
Right.
dr albert taylor
I call that in my book abort sequence.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
dr albert taylor
Because that's like saying, help me.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
But I'm so tired all day long.
dr albert taylor
Well, you know, sometimes if you were to stay out of body for a long time, then come back, your body wouldn't be as tired.
But you sound like you're not leaving completely, or maybe you leave for a little while and you come back and then you go through a dream state type of thing, a restless sleep.
unidentified
Right.
dr albert taylor
The only thing I can say is that try some of the techniques I put in my book.
You know, they work to the point where you'll be out and you won't be in that dream state and you won't be tossing and turning.
And do the relaxation, the visualization, and things may smooth out for you.
Regarding the condemnation that you heard from other people, like I said, with this thing I found that everybody is an expert, but few of them are really experiencers.
So just take it with a grain of salt, and that's where they're coming from.
It really has nothing to do with your experience.
Think of it as your experiences are power are powerful and what your little girl said doesn't sound demonic.
I mean if she has experience with Jesus, what could be demonic about that?
That sounds almost hypocritical to say that it is.
So don't worry about what they say.
I have heard so many things.
People have said so many fearful things about this, but none of them have had these experiences.
art bell
The world is full of that.
dr albert taylor
Yeah, it it's going to go on.
But you're having something that your little girl is having, and I think it's wonderful.
Support it, be open to her, and let her explore her own being, because that's what she's doing.
Back at the Old House 00:02:16
unidentified
All right.
art bell
We're almost out of time, Al, but maybe one more.
Wildcard line, you're on the air with Al Taylor.
unidentified
Hi.
Hello, Art.
Richard and Kelso.
art bell
I was hoping Mr. Taylor could explain what happened to me.
unidentified
I was having a vivid dream one night a couple of years ago.
art bell
I was dreaming I was at my old house where I grew up, ten miles away.
I woke up.
unidentified
I was wide awake and yet I was paralyzed.
I couldn't move.
I tried yelling to my wife.
She couldn't, I mean, I couldn't get anything out.
art bell
So I blinked my eyes, and suddenly I was back at my old house ten miles away.
I was still conscious that I was paralyzed, and I blinked my eyes, and I was back in my bedroom.
unidentified
I still couldn't move.
art bell
I blinked my eyes again.
I was back at the old house ten miles away.
unidentified
Wow.
I blinked my eyes again.
art bell
I was back in the bedroom.
The whole time this went on for several minutes, I just thought and fought and fought, and the first thing I got back was just a faint voice.
unidentified
Just, you know, I was able to get out a squeak, and then finally I could yell.
art bell
Well, what happened?
That was classic, wasn't it, Al?
dr albert taylor
Yeah, I hear that a lot.
You know, a lot of people go to old houses.
Let me ask you this.
Was the house different from what you remember?
art bell
He's already gone, so we're so short on time.
dr albert taylor
Yeah, a lot of people have experiences like that where they go to their old house because what's happening is, you know, there may be a part of you that is very comfortable and drawn to that.
And if you're in that state, you can create it or even experience the old house.
And it doesn't matter what time period because there are no time limitations.
unidentified
All right.
dr albert taylor
So it's very easy to do that.
art bell
We're woefully out of time.
Listen, my friend, it has been a wonderful night.
You are a dream come true for a lot of people that have been calling for days.
I'm glad I found you.
And I want you to give your 800 number again for your book.
The name of the book is Soul Traveler by Al Taylor.
Al, it has been a pleasure.
dr albert taylor
Thank you very much, Art, for this opportunity.
And I'm really honored to be able to help and share my experiences with people out there to help them.
Don't Forget Tonight 00:00:21
art bell
Take care, my friend.
dr albert taylor
You too.
art bell
Good night.
dr albert taylor
We will be in contact.
art bell
Sleep well.
Sleep well.
Well, that's it, folks.
We will be back again tonight.
Don't forget with Dr. Jesse Marcel Jr. from the beautiful high desert.
