That time that made you know that there was more to life then what we see?

I'd love know what got someone to the point of OK there is more to life that what we see. I know that everyone is on a different paths but when I hear others talk about their WOW times,
I feel that I'm not in left field alone.

I've had many different things happen in my life but the one that made me stop and really look at life around me was a out of body thing. I was taking a meditation class to relax with a friend the teacher put on a tape to guide us, I heared about 1 or 2 minutes then it was black. I next was moving thur a doorway there was a blue fuzzy painting to my right then I went out french doors without opening the doors and went flying into the sky. I awoke back in class the teacher saying that I was just out of body. My friend and I both looked at each other and said "Yea, right?" we took note of the time. We finished class and trying to disprove the out of body thing happen when I told him that it reminded me of my mom and dad's house lay out (their bedroom to the back door.) we went to see my family, I opened the door and was yelled out. It seems my mothers was awoken to the sound of me screaming at her from the foot of her bed at the sametime as I was out of body from class. I had not told my family where I was that day and neither my friend or I had our cell phones with us plus nobody that was in class had my families phone number to call them. I didn't say anything about it being like mom and dad's house until I was in the car with my friend. That was my wake up call to see that there was more to life than what I was seeing as real.
