The most bizarre experience of my life is something that happened to me when I was 27 years old. It was one of my first gigs as a keyboard player in 1975. I was walking into a big club carrying my mic stand and my amp head. As I entered there was a young man just inside the door in a beige trench coat and holding a suitcase. It had recently rained but it was still an odd sight for a dance club. As I crossed the dance floor time stopped. It was like in a dream sequence and as if someone outside of time and space pressed pause on a video. Then a voice inside my head said, "This is Paul. He will be your business partner in the future. You are entering a dark time in your life. Never lose sight of where you are destined to go." Then time resumed. I turned around. The young man was exiting the door. I quickly put my equipment on the stage and ran outside, but he was no where in sight. He had been talking to a waitress as I had entered. I asked her who had she been talking to. She said " All I know is that he said his name was Paul" and said she had to get back to work. I wasn't high, drunk, or anything. I have yet to meet "Paul" and my one experience in Astral Projection was similar to that experience, but I was moving then. So my question is "Has anyone ever heard of time suddenly stopping?" I've Googled this kind of experience but found nothing like it. Please let me know if you have ever heard of this.
