Experience description:

My experience happened while I was asleep. I found myself in an absolute darkness, when a light appeared. It looked like the end of a tunnel, and just next to the light there was a being of light. What struck me most was the extraordinary feeling of wellbeing. I had never felt such a state of happiness and fulfilment, whose origin was this light and this being. The being of light extended its arm towards the light, as if he (or she) was inviting me to go towards the light, but I did not go there. I withdrew, until I could not longer see it at all, and found myself back in my house, but outside my body, in a room underneath my bedroom. Then I went back up through the ceiling and returned to my body. When I was back inside my body it felt like being in a vise, my body compressed on every side. Then I woke up with a pain in my chest.

Mon exp�rience a eu lieu pendant mon sommeil. Je me trouvais dans l'obscurit� la plus totale quand une lumi�re est apparue, elle ressemblait � la sortie d'un tunnel, et juste � c�t� de la lumi�re, il y avait un �tre de lumi�re. Ce qui m'a le plus marqu�, c'est l'extraordinaire sensation de bien �tre. Jamais je n'avais ressenti un �tat de bonheur et de pl�nitude, qui �manait de cette lumi�re et de cette �tre. L'�tre de lumi�re tendait le bras vers cette lumi�re, comme si il(ou elle) me proposait de me diriger vers cette lumi�re, mais je n'y suis pas all�. Je m'en suis �loign� jusqu'� ce que je ne la vois plus du tout et je me suis retrouv� dans ma maison mais hors de mon corps dans une pi�ce situ�e en dessous de ma chambre. Ensuite je suis remont� en traversant le plafond et en revenant � l'int�rieur de mon corps. Quand je suis rentr� � l'int�rieur de mon corps, j'avais l'impression d'�tre pris dans un �tau, que mon corps �tait comprim� de toute part. Ensuite je me suis r�veill� avec une douleur au niveau de la poitrine.
