Getting stabbed in the phase

[Barnacle]

Anyone else here find that getting stabbed or slashed with a knife hurts real bad in the phase? Sometimes when a DC pulls a knife on me, I don't wanna get stabbed so I grab the blade but my hand gets sliced and its real painful.

When I Used to have nightmares of a wildcat killing me every night and I tried escaping from those dreams by killing myself I definitely felt pain. Worst of all was when that black wild cat attempted to bite me and kill me! It hurt like hell and that's why I was terrified and tried to wake myself up before that cat got me. So luckly I moved houses at the age of 16 which stopped that cat from getting me.

I've never been stabbed but I've been shot in a few lucid dreams and I've been in lots of fights.I've never felt pain from any of it though,I think it has a good deal to do with belief and attitude.I just took the bullets ,or bounced them off of me, and carried on with my experience.(not to say that events always do go as we believe or expect though)

I've actually had the converse happen too.I went to sleep once with a fairly painful back strain that I had for a couple of days with no sign of letting up.In a regular dream a DC pinched my back extremely hard and I felt intense pain.After I woke up the original back pain was gone...

I don't usually experience pain. In a dream the other night somebody knocked me out and I lost and regained consciousness without any pain. I usually experience pain in dreams as a strong tickling sensation! I was stabbed once and the sensation for that was intense tickling.

Bullets don't hurt me in dreams either. Probably because I've never been shot because and don't know what to expect. I've never been stabbed but we all know what it feels like getting cut with a knife.

Strangely enough, I get pinched a lot by dream characters too. It hurts pretty bad.

Now powerlines show up for me now and then and they pretty much shock the crap out of me when I grab them and cause a foul.



I considered this a challenge and I recently overcame it.Now I just avoid them as a time wasting obstacle.

I read somewhere (?) that powerlines turn up in lucid dreams with surprising frequency. Might have been Laberge somewhere.

I actually talked about this on my personal blog post.  I was getting stabbed by lots of children but didnt feel a thing.  Probably because i said to myself that it was just a dream and pain wouldnt exist.

I think Dodd was working on experiments of this nature.

Yes, anyone interested in joining our experiment group, click on "OOBE RESEARCH CENTER" from the obe4u home page.

We focus on conducting experiments to see if feelings/sensations from the phase can carry over into waking reality.

I have a little confusion in my mind, once in my dream i experienced an RDX blast right on my face, i was in a wedding ceremony and i opened a gift which was containing RDX in it, the confusion is off-course i have never experienced any such bomb blast (as i am alive) but how did i felt the actual pain of having a blast on right my face, soon after the incident i was aware i was dreaming but still i was feeling the pain for few seconds..

It is probably because you were expecting it.  Dreams can often emulate waking state sensations.
