My last experience

[JimmyTheTulip]

Truth be told, it has been more than a few years since I consistently meditated. My last experience while meditating may have something to do with that so come along on this journey with me and let me know your thoughts on this experience.

Not long after I started on this forum in 2011, I ran into another member with whom I started having conversations with via PM (that person will remain nameless). This person made it seem as though s/he was some sort of collector who deemed whether or not people were worthy of advancing along their path and if they weren't s/he would take their ability away from them.

Not long after I had this discussion with this person I sat down for my normal nightly meditation session. It started out quite standard for me, chills running up and down my back, flashes of lights and images, and then something occurred for the first time ever. The only way I could describe it would be as if there was some sort of vortex that came out of my third eye and began lifting me up out of my seat even though I wasn't moving. It was an amazing feeling but also kinda scary/startling since it had never occurred before.

The next day I was reflecting on my experience when I remember my conversations with this individual and it made me wonder, had this person not found me worthy and the experience from the night before was of s/he taking my abilities away from me? Should I not continue on my path? This portion of my tale seems quite silly looking back on it now. For me to think that someone has the ability to take away something as powerful as that doesn't seem possible but I had many experiences leading up to those conversations that I didn't think were possible before too so who was I to discount his/her ability.

Sorry, I feel as though I'm rambling now so I'll cut myself off by merely asking if anyone else has had a similar experience while meditating. I look forward to diving head first back into my meditations and seeing where they take me from here!
