v: actually, I've read of certain phases of sleep in the REM (Rapid Eye
Movement) levels where paralysis is  a normal symptom every night, it's
just being aware of it that's unusual.

vc: well - didn't fluff out my pride! Being strongly grounded & centered
in your body & visualizing white light surrounding one's self is a good
protection from whatever disincarnate being or thoughtforms might enter.
   I stopped with the heavy concentration exercises with the CHURCH OF
DIVINE MANS within this period because I was genuinely frightened! These
realities cannot be disputed once one encounters them! And - being too
afraid to go to sleep is NOT *fun*!
   Besides, this was all about 15 years ago now! I prefer to not
inter-mingle with dross discarnate energy drains,and somehow I grew into
THAT reality, keeping my own *personal power* about me at all times!
