I have meditated a few times where I have had vivid trips. with lots of imagery. I am making a distinction between this and buhudist insight meditation. (knowing yourself) reccently my meditation has been losing it's trippyness and i am not sure how i enduced it in the first place. Any help is much appreciated. *btw don't tell me that "meditation isn't about tripping" because there are types that ARE. this thread isn't a debate so if your against tripping don't post. thanx for your help.
I think they are referring to actually seeing visions during their meditative experiences. I do agree that "tripping" is quite vague and can be applied to a lot of experiences.
Meditation isn't ABOUT tripping though. It's about discovering your mind and getting it clear. Chances are you may be trying to hard as well.
Every once in a while I see random stuff too. Once it was m16s shooting prism like tear drops. Most recently it was random flashes of color. Dont meditate with expectations. It only distracts. Peace Love Happiness.
Yeah, but are you doing a type of meditation? Maybe just sitting? Are you high at the same time? Just curious. I find various more mental visuals from drugs and more diffuse and spacial feelings from regular meditation.
No stone cold sober. I was doing a buddhist technique. Basically I focused on one sound and emptied my mind. Then I focused on all the sounds I heard. I didnt fight thoughts but rather let them drift past unoticed. Then I see things.
for me its the same as dancing bear. no drugs and no forcing it. youve got to let them come to you, so make space!
When you enter the astral realm, you might hear extremely loud explosions and see anything from the inside of your vein to a distant door in a black abyss. thank the endogenous crystalline keys that circulate within.
I just asked. I don't see much of anything even on hallucinogens and regular meditative experiences just have some colors and that's about it. But peace and light. I consider the state of lightness and peacefulness what can be called enlightenment. Not something too profound really or it would become sickening. Tiresome. Enlightenment should be light, peaceful, fresh, clear. That's it! Nothing more. When one is searching for trips and such things then they are not searching for enlightenment/liberation but they are just searching for a high. For that, one should understand their brain chems. Weird experiences are just that and generally some imbalance of substances in brain chems. I tell you guys and gals that better than tripping is feeling some basic joy and love. I would recommend striving for peace and love even so far as to go ahead and make them if they are not forthcoming. Most of everybody is already on some trip or another.
