This "Baphomet" OBE got me puzzled to this day..
although I had some out of body experiences as a kid, I was most sceptical, almost contra- anything spiritual and religious in the first place.

but everything changed, when I had this crazy out of body experience as teenager. it happened while I was wide awake and sober on a sunny summer afternoon, I suddenly couldn`t see out of my still opened eyes and began to hover out of the physical body; feeling so much more alive, sparkling and vibrant , I looked at my hovering body to see what made me feel so awesome sparkly; just to find, that my hovering body was covered with more hair than usual and it was as if i could consciously feel inside every single hair tip... and then i saw my feets melt away! I desperately thought "OMG! I don`t want to look like a cripple!"

before l could see what my feet turned into, I moved out of my hairy self, and then just wanted to turn around to see what was happening!?. so I turned around and saw that my first astral body had a capricorn like head and looked pretty scary.

.I panicked and just wanted to run, because seeing the horns got me thinking it must be the devil.

.the experience stopped almost instantly thereafter.. the experience got me going to church voluntarily, trying to find god

. it wasn`t too enlightening except for the speaking in tongues..so i gave it up and started to voraciously dig into out of body experience books, anything about ESP, etc...I was seeking knowledge about the event while being in a state of denial at the same time for quite a long time.

Only many years later did I begin to realize that the capricorn-me looked like a being called Baphomet. in retrospect I think that this baphomet merely wanted to "say": "don`t you forget about me" . I am convinced that baphomet is benevolent, but nowadays it`s mistaken for the devil, as the Templar`s persecutors needed to declare the spiritual growth promoting Baphomet as evil

.
I find that (spiritual) truth has to be found on a personal level. But I welcome any insightful input from others.
