Waking up in another body

Note: Not sure of the date again, just picked one.

It was a free weekend and I was just trying to sleep a little longer even though I was already awake. Fell asleep again and saw a dream. It was not the dream that was weird, but the way I woke up.

The dream was over and I started to flow back into the body. While approaching the body, I literally felt the memories of the dream slowly fading away. At the same time, the memories from the body slowly faded into my mind. I remembered that it was a free weekend and that I could do whatever I wanted to.

There was one problem though - after flowing through the concrete wall, I had difficulties entering the body. It felt as if the body posed a great resistance to my soul. I then found out that it was easier to enter through the mouth. There was this special sound that I heard while doing this (low breath in sound - you know, like the dementors did in Harry Potter).

I was slowly flowing into the body and without even opening my eyes, I saw the walls with posters around me. My mind was totally clear - just as if I had been meditating the whole time. I thought: "the practice of vision with my eyes closed has paid off pretty good".

And when I thought that, I felt being pushed out of the body, through the concrete wall again. I was using some intermediary space for moving quickly from one place to another. Well, the memories of being in the body slowly faded out again (though some of it remained - just like after waking up from a dream).

I approached another body and its memories slowly faded into my mind. I entered the body (I guess it was through the mouth again and that I felt some resistance again). I slowly wake up and found that it was weird even though the most of the experience had faded so that I couldn't remember all of the details anymore.


So, if being in the other body felt like it definitely was my own body because of all the memories, how can I be certain that I'm in the correct body at the moment? Maybe I'm not, but if the memories and behavior come from the body, then maybe it's not important.

Those were the questions that formed after this experience. I personally thought it was just another dream, because the entering throught mouth and feelings while entering / leaving a body seemed unrealistic. One hell of a dream nevertheless.
