brilliant light from my forehead, sober.

[Eudaimōn]

Hi everyone. Something very peculiar happened to me last night while I was laying in bed waiting to sleep. I would like to know if anyone else has had a similar experience.

I have been feeling the sensation of a pulse, or concentrated energy in my forehead just in between the eyes. Last night this concentrated energy peaked, my eyes rolled back into my head and a flash of incredibly bright light took over my whole vision. It only lasted a second.

Over the last few months I have been having deep mushroom journeys and meditating often. I feel the concentrated energy around my third eye point ins't just the delusions of a naive new-ager, but something perhaps more significant. Having a blast of intense light dominate my whole spectrum of vision last night left me speechless, thoughtless and in awe. Perhaps it was just my pineal gland squeezing out a tryptamine fart. I'm not sure, but I'd be happy to hear of any similar occurrences or possible explanations. I am at a loss.

Thank you.

I had a similairly peculiar experience last night. I had stomach cramps and I was in a friend's appartment,
but my friend had left to help his neighbor with something. I layed my hand on the sore spot in my belly and
sought to heal then tention/cramps. It worked and I discovered a power inside of me. A hidden power.

Amun Rah I decided. Hidden Sun, because it felt like I was being warmed up by millions of solar rays.
The healing was physical as well as spiritual. I was only minorly stoned on cannabis, but otherwise sober.

It's just so obvious that your Ajna chakra has been activated by your transformative entheogenic journeys. I sense that you meditate regularly? I believe that this is the single most important tool for soul attunement. The third eye is both a vortexial fulcrum interconnected to the pineal gland and simultaneously, an access to higher and still higher frequencies of elevated conscious-awareness. 8)

The light is seen at this point and beyond simply envisioning this wonder, we incrementally become accustomed to moving our focussed awareness, by sheer intent, through this effulgent portal. Naturally, the light pulses blindingly, until immersion dissolves the mortal membrane separating the observer from that which is observed. This leads into the expansion of the self, transcending all barriers and shifting into the full bloom of the Sahasrara crown chakra. From this transcendent point, oneself and the light become a singular, undifferentiated field of energy. Hence, the explossive brilliance of a whiteout experience.

In light of all of this, I feel the concentrated energy around my third eye point ins't just the delusions of a naive new-ager, but something perhaps more significant. Having a blast of intense light dominate my whole spectrum of vision last night left me speechless, thoughtless and in awe. Perhaps it was just my pineal gland squeezing out a tryptamine fart. I'm not sure, but I'd be happy to hear of any similar occurrences or possible explanations. I am at a loss.

Thank you. Om Namah Shivaya.

It's not uncommon for shamans, psychonauts and sadhakas alike, to have such powerful inner light experiences, just prior to deep sleep states. It's the same if waking up in the middle of the night and doing concentration meditation (fully prone or upright in sitting posture) This becomes the norm. And your parable about your pineal gland "squeezing out a tryptamine fart" is quite likely spot on... and very, very funny at that!

SKA, thanks for sharing this interesting experience. I was also lightly stoned on cannabis when this happened . what you described sounds very much like reiki healing. would you agree? i have been researching and working with this form of healing, on myself primarily, but not nearly to same effectiveness as what you described!

Rising Spirit, you honour me with such an eloquent and pertinent response. thank you. since this heightened frequency i have found myself quite receptive to telepathic communication with certain people. I even had an intuitive feeling it would be you who would respond to this post hehe. anyway, i'm sure the phenomenon is fairly mundane news in comparison with what many have been through here, it was just quite shocking to me as a psychonaught in the early stages of germination . thanks again for the response, a very nice start to the day.
