Menacing Voices

Last night I lay in bed and worked quite a bit at entering the astral plane. After considerable effort I succeeded. At one point I left the room I was in and turned left at the door. I found myself in a dingy somewhat dark room. The floor and all the walls were concrete. There was no furniture anywhere in sight and there was nothing on the walls. I heard some voices so I turned around cautious to not let myself be caught from behind. But there was no one there.

Suddenly I heard the voices of several people. They sounded like the criminals I sometimes see in my neighborhood. I spun completely around in case they were behind me but I didn't see anyone, yet I could hear the voices loud and clear. This unnerved me quite a bit. I was worried about being caught off guard.

Then it dawned on me that maybe the voices I was hearing were coming from the physical plane. Just like we sometimes pick up voices and noises from the physical plane and we incorporate them into our dreams. I immediately made the effort to return to the physical and I immediately woke up. But as soon as I was awake in the physical, the loud hooting and hollering voices I had heard stopped. It was still night time and my room was very quiet and tranquil. Those menacing voices I heard were definitely from the astral plane.

I remembered the mantra for protection and I immediately began to chant it mentally.

"Klim Krishnaya Govindaya Gopijana Vallabhaya Swaha,
Klim Krishnaya Govindaya Gopijana Vallabhaya Swaha..."
