1/25/59 Night
Another hole experiment, with the same pattern of vibrations and 180°. Again
I carefully reached into the hole. A hand again took mine and held it firmly (no
hook!). Then the hand passed mine over to a second hand. I slowly released
the second hand and felt upward. There was definitely an arm attached to the
hand, and a shoulder I was about to explore more, when the vibrations
seemed to soften, and I pulled my arm back and rotated to the physical.
There was no indication of the need to return to the physical, no cramped
arms or legs, no noises. Probably a momentary sound caused the return.
2/5/59 Afternoon
Perhaps my concern with the hole is justified. I followed the same approach
pattern, vibrations and 180° rotation, reached into the hole, and at first felt
nothing. I reached deeper, and suddenly it felt as if I had thrust my hand into
electrically charged hot water (most accurate description). I withdrew it very
quickly, rotated, and sat up physically. The physical hand felt numb and
tingling. From the position of my body, there was no evidence of poor
circulation. The numbness and tingling slowly disappeared in about twenty
minutes.
2/15/59 Afternoon
I experimented with going in and out vertically, then rotated to the hole.
Gathering courage, I pulled myself through in a sweeping rush, just as a
swimmer might pull himself through a hole under water. I felt the other side of
the hole, and the wall was similar to "my" side. I tried to "see" but there was
still nothing but the deep blackness. I decided to settle the matter once and
for all. I shoved away from the hole and performed the stretch-out in a
direction exactly on a line away from the hole.
I started to move, slowly, and soon accelerated rapidly. I kept moving more
rapidly, yet with only a slight sense of friction over my body. Moving at what
seemed a very high speed, I went on, waiting and expecting to "get"
somewhere. After what seemed a very long time, I began to be concerned. I
still "saw" nothing, felt nothing. Finally, I began to get nervous. Fears about
becoming lost began to creep in. 1 slowed, stopped, turned around, and
stretched out back in the direction of the hole. It took just as long to get back
as it did to go. I was quite worried when I finally saw the light through the hole
up ahead. I dove for it, went through, rotated, and sat up physically. Time
away was three hours, fifteen min-utes!
