learned TM when i was fourteen and within the first week i had a vision of kundalini snake and of powerful shakti filling me like a baloon, then for a couple years i had a headache in the third eye area and felt like i was burning alive, it was very unpleasant, it finally went away, then for years after i felt so squeaky clean inside i felt like i burned all the cloudiness of world worn ignorance away restoring all things to a new potential, and then i got back into drugs and lost all that, though now again i am again starting over in sadhana and the kundalini is always there, she never left me even for a moment, only my mind at times was too numb to experience inner flow...

Cool story. I looked up bovis scale on wiki and was lead to dowsing, which reminded me of having tried this. You simply take a forked stick, hold it level to the ground and in specific spots the straight end bends downwards. This supposedly indicates wells or underground water flows, and according to more esoteric explanation, ley lines. I was blown away when the rod actually pulled downwards at specific spots. After all it was just a wooden stick!

:lol:





Not to derail this thread...but.

I use a different kind of dowsing frequently.
I am an electrician, and sometimes have the need to find underground conduits. My Witching Rod is not like the one commonly described for use in finding water, but works on the same principle.

I use two pieces of copper wire bent into an L shape (I haven't tried any other metals for this because copper is so handy in my field). Just walking across a plot of ground, I can locate ANY pipe with an accuracy of +/- 6 inches (even empty pipes).

Don't ask me how it works, but it does. Most people freak the fuck out when I do it, implying that it's bogus....until I give them the rods and they try it themselves.

All are amazed at the strength with which the rods align.

FWiW,

It's pretty awesome. I was incredulous at first but had to admit that I felt the pull and it wasn't coming from my own hands(the average psychologist won't agree with this), and I still don't know how it works. A good mind-fuck is an experience pointing toward the unknown, and therefore IMO a spiritual experience.

Welcome to the forum :hug:
You chose the right one to start out in!


Psychiatrists have such wonderful ways of raining on your parade :shitstorm:
They'd call what you saw with the yarn a "hallucination". Then you say the other saw it too. First the good man will tell you that you misinterpreted his nonverbal response. Then, he calls it "Folie A Deux" (shared delusion) and is rid of it.

No, I really believe both of you saw SOMETHING. The Universe works in mysterious ways and sometimes you need to see things that arent right in order to evolve spiritually. Then mother nature provides, and if another needs to see it to for it to stick, sure, no problem.

Treasure that experience. Only worry when you get a lotr of those things and eerie, sinister messages start emerging and your life comes apart.

Yes, it might have been a shared hallucination. Does it matter? I think not, not unless its all downhill from there.

I would only call it a spiritual experience if it happened proving a theme going opn at that time, like you saying "You cant change the laws of physics!" or "Sweet baby Jesus give me a sign that I should take the job offer!" or when you tried to levitate the string. What you had wasnt spiritual per se, but a "miraculous experience" or perhaps if you vibe that way, a "psychic phenomenon". Spiritual is what you make of it, but the event itself didnt underline a spiritual principle.

Welcome :hug:

Wow... What a thread! Some very beautiful experiences here, funkmastershrooms I really enjoyed reading yours and If I go to canada some day (possibly this summer with my family) I will travel to this place you have described.
My first experience becoming aware of energy was after a shpongle show with the aid of mushrooms and lsd...I was outside and it just kinda started with this amazing girl. I felt like I was being lifted up out of my body, we swirled together and exchanged for a while. I was in awe. I felt energy rising in me and this rumbling and turning inside I never felt before, I have speculated it was kundalini stirring up. Others who were in touch came over and we also exchanged energy. Bringing eachother into bliss and basically orgasmic pleasure in the moment. I exhanged energy with another of there friend (guy) who synchronictically  was named west....mines wes. We had a connection and mutual exchange between all of us going and west said lets heat it up or something and my friend lit his lighter and I didnt really think anything of it but in a few seconds my whole body got hot. West and the other girl then sat on the ground and put there backs together and through some means began to transform there physical appearence into something unimaginable. And this was when I was far past having visuals aside from the subtle energy I was now picking up on. Ever since then I have become sensitive to these vibrations and this energy. That was my awakening in a sense...I have felt pressure in my third eye for the months that have followed and weird bodily experiences as a result. I was returned to this peak state in another trip during a dance, I entered this completely blissful state and had a vision of shiva dancing. Much more too it than that but I understand my story is getting long. I have also had the telepathic experiences with friends ( we were both separated at a concert and I felt this strong building pressure to talk to him and he was feeling the same simultaneously, he heard my voice coming out through the music and finally when the connection climaxed and I called him I was reciving his call at the same time) and sitting in my car me and another friend heard the same fantastic ineffable symphony (like shpongle inside of a steel drum blasted by a jet plane) inside our collective mind. I went to a reiki meetup last week and that was pretty incredible aswell. This is a very spiritually inspiring thread, blessings to you all.

For me mushrooms really showed me the interconnectedness of things.. took a few trips to finally get there but wow.. I won't go into the minute details but.. combination of great friends, woods, stars lake, northern lights during the sunrise.. Ka-BooM! I was changed in a subtle way, so that it presented another option, ego death.. 5 years later, many hard lessons gained and my stubborn self is ready to accept that path..

The facts are in.. there is NO seperation.. the physical and metaphysical are intimately imbued.. Spiritureality haha daily reality is never absent of true spirituality.. and everyone, EVERYONE has experienced at least a brief moment of ENLIGHTENMENT. Why do you think adrenaline junkies can't get enough and keep searching for the next extreme to concur - because in that intense moment their minds are still and simply reacting - they are free! Many astronauts have change their lives seeing the earth hang in the fabric of space for the first time.. But that mindstate can be found anywhere we look - a sunset, mountains, a song, playing an instrument.. doing anything we love to do... We all seek a mind state readily available to us!

I awoke out of my body while dreaming, and saw a completely humanoid figure emitting an insanely bright pure white light from it's body beside my bed. Its like it was emmitting an extremely high vibration. I blacked out and didn't wake up until the morning. This was a few months back.

Sometimes when I'm truly still, I can feel like I'm part of the universe. I feel like i'm floating, like I'm part of the things stars are made up of. I feel like I'm part of space, infinite nothingness. yes, I am usually smoking marijuana when I feel this way and I'm sure a lot of extremely narrow minded people will think, well of course you feel this way, because your as high as a kite. Trust me,I've been smoking for 15 years. Yes, some buds are stronger than others and give you that weightless feeling but it's more than that. Marijuana quiets the part of my brain that constantly worries about responsibilities, bills, plans, family, work, etc. I can truly relax and let my mind be free. It's been my personal experience that unless I use drugs, I can't quiet my active mind down enough for me to get some serenity, some perspective. But I've also been 100% sober and see a sunset so captivating that I know I am part of something truly great. Something that can't be explained, can't be measured, can't be proven. I consider these moments the best of my life and when I feel the most whole.

I've had a handful of spiritual experiences--they've effected me deeply, and are largely responsible for the person I am today.

I started life as a skeptic, essentially an atheist, but I never went so far as to claim it--happy remaining in agnosticism. For reasons I won't get into here, I decided to go travel around India upon graduating high school.

After travelling through India for about as month, my eyes had been opened to a whole new culture, and I began to get hints of something beyond my understanding--an energy that permeated everything. It culminated in a night out in the jungles of Goa--a violent thunderstorm the first half, clear skies the second--that left me feeling like I had just been cleansed (a spiritual experience for another post :wink:).

My next stop was Benares, the city of Shiva, also the city where I got violently ill. I mean, really sick. I was unable to keep down anything, I would puke up even medicine or water immediately. This went on for two and a half day, and despite the fact that I ate and drank nothing, I still managed to have diarrhea continually. Suffice it to say, I was in a bad state. I remember looking at myself and being able to see my entire skeleton outline, I had lost so much water weight. I also had an incredible high fever the entire time too. I was delirious with it, talking and singing with myself for hours, and have literal hallucinations for hours at a time. No sleep the entire time.

At first, I had just wished I had never gone to India. I wished I was somewhere where my mom could just take care of everything, like when I was  sick as a kid. After a couple days of this though, I literally wished I was dead, that it would just finish. In frustration, I cried out for Shiva to help me, stop this. I don't know why I choose Shiva, probably being in the city and other reasons had it on my mind, but that is the name I choose to call out for help to. Literally within minutes, I fell asleep. I woke up the next day, and was able to drink water and keep down my medicine. Things only improved from there.

I didn't know what to think, immediately after. I did not know if it was coincidence or not, but I couldn't forget what happened. On my subsequent travels, I had several more experiences that cemented Shiva as a moving force in my life, and looking back now I see that moment, in that tiny hotel room, at my weakest point experienced, as my turning point--where I began to truly realize this power that is in everything, and is everything.

Here's my most powerful experience, it was a turning point in my life, although I didn't realize it at the time.

Ancient Knowledge

"We are not human beings going through a temporary spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings going through a temporary human experience."

My level 5 trip report
...After this it became clear to me that, behind the thin veil of the Human ego, all Reality, and this whole life, is a never ending mystical experience. The Universe is but a cosmic being exploring itself, learning about itself and enjoying its own existence through all creatures, and all things, in an infinite dance of Life, and like a fractal tendril you are a minute part of it, and you are All of it...

I have a lot of OBE's, have since I was a child... both purposely and non... apparently that's considered pretty paranormal :shrug:


then there's all the experiences while tripping... but I was on drugs so they don't count  :dontspillme:

it's true, life is the ultimate spiritual experience.  It used to be my peak experiences blew my mind and I was left wondering at how amazing they were.  Now it'll just be normal moments all the time and the only thing that blows my mind is how natural it feels to reside as the self in all situations. And how spun I must have been for like the 7 years before I started turning back towards my heart :lol:.
