I can see lights and if I focus on them they begin to take the forms of strange looking creatures and people, sometimes very abstracted scary looking things. They all move - coming in from different sides, floating very close to me and then disappear into well, nowhere. These formations come in two different colours, very light yellow and blue. If I continue to focus on these with my eyes closed, afterwards when I open them I am able to see and hear things from what I believe to be other dimensions. Sometimes when I practice this in bed for a long period of time, my eyes begin to open without my control and I'm still able to see the coloured lights. I only know very few people who can do this aswell and I'm wondering if anyone can explain to me what this actually is, or if anyone else has this ability?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphene Very common. Random firing of the optical system, I get weird coloured splotches and blotches which pulsate and form patterns and shapes, usually moving towards me (ie getting bigger) then disappearing. Sometimes this remains after I open my eyes and I can see a crescent moon shaped splotch in the middle of my visual field.
yea i get this too, its pretty normal i think. especially if u stare at bright lights then shut your eyes they are even more vivid.
These are well described entoptic visual phenomena which occur in the system by which we perceive light, there is nothing mysterious or unusual about them. Why would we assume they are from 'another dimension' when they are explained perfectly well within our own? http://www.oubliette.zetnet.co.uk/Three.html
i agree with lithium. there is really nothing special about them, loads of people see them...i dont think we are all tuned in to other dimensions, if it was that easy we would know more than we do.
you can train yourself to access different realms... but for the most part the visuals you see are just memories being mashed together.
Indeed. There are many different "channels" which I think are spectrums of different frequencies or something like that
I once closed my eyes and saw a garden. I don't really know what that was about either, but it was cool.
I don't believe in different "channels". It is clearly explained by wikipedia, well not wikipedia per say but you know what I mean! It is like saying that someone who seems things that are not really there are just tuning into a different channel.
That's nice. When I was a young child one night I dreamt of fire. Then I laid don awake for a while, but when I was closing my eyes I would see fire even if awake...
I don't believe so. I am able to control these "lights" in my head, rotate them, enlarge them, expand them, search within, change their color, etc. This is obviously not just some random firing of the optical system. It's called the third eye.
No Lith is right PHOSPHENES are bright lines and dots that appear when you close your eyes or sit in the dark. Hotwater
They are not bright lines or dots. They are complex geometric patterns resembling sacred geometry and the flower of life. I started seeing these before I had even seen or know about sacred geometry or the flower of life. Aswell, I am able to see words and energy. I am also able to focus my third eye and actually feel a pressure inbetween my eyes. I also see all colours of the light spectrum, almost in a rainbow fashion. This rainbow usually emanates around the edges of a rotating inner light. Coincidentally, this began when I first awakened a year and a half ago.
why be afraid of the unusual looking? this is a backward headed prejudice promoted by certain beliefs or interpretations of them. yes, my inner eye sometimes forms images of people from worlds other then this one too. in my previous lives i lived on some of those other worlds the're from. there's no logic to making a big deal out of this. only irrational prejudice. and yes, there is a kind of psychic internet, and it IS possible to communicate with people on other worlds by way of it. not everything that is intangible is necessarily imaginary or insane.
