Ok after relooking through Robert's book, I saw the term he used for it.

I recently had a few of these early in the morning where I could physically see out of my 3rd eye. I never knew I had one before. It all happened after I started with the relaxation techniques and OBE techniques. (still no obe's yet)

What I saw was the surface of Mars as clear as if I was there but through a small hole. (No peripheral vision etc) with my EYES CLOSED. The vision looked left and right and up and down and then proceeded to float upward, and look around. It was as if I had no control over what it was doing.

It faded away and then I concentrated hard on it coming back, and it faded back in, for a short time only to fade back away.

Is there ANY way to control this?? Or induce this? I have no idea why I'd see the surface of mars. It was just like pictures I had seen in the past but recently had not been looking at anything on Mars...

Any information you can give about this odd effect or how to induce it would be appreciated. Any links etc..

Thanks
