I do this too, as well as serveral of my friends. I can set the alarm to go
off 1 hour after I've gone to bed and wake up exactly 1 minute before the
alarm goes off. It doesn't matter what time I set the alarm I'll always
wake up exactly 1 minute before the alarm goes off.
I do have an answer for this that is kinda bizzare. My friends conversate
with me when I sleep. It can be about any subject and I can be dreaming any
dream and I'll respond and communicate just as I would if I were awake.
I've been told a few times I've actualy sat up and looked at them (eyes
open) and talked even though I was fast a sleep. Having lived on my own and
not many people visit over night I don't know if I still do this, but I
think perhaps we all have someother consciousness that keeps track of things
like time.
I can picture someone reading this saying I must have multiple personalities
but I doubt that because people who have them don't remember events while
they do them. I learned to create and destroy personalities at will and I
always remember and am always in control. I think because I've done so much
exploration of my own mind mainly through meditation and while sleeping
(being aware I'm sleeping and controlling my environment while monitoring
what's going on) that I continue to do so sometimes without thinking about
it. That would explain being able to talk to someone while I'm a sleep.
If anyone has simular experiences at this level I would definately like to
hear about them.
