ParticipantI desire to gain a deeper understanding of many experiences that I have had in my life. Not physical ones, but more transcendental ones that have completely changed my perception of the reality of this world.

ParticipantHello,
I have something I would like to share, and then perhaps you could help explain what it could mean, please.
Through-out my entire life, I have had the ability to tap into senses outside of the five physical senses, and so, I would like to share two occurrences:
1. In 2021, I began a meditation session, where I was lying down on the sofa. I always begin my meditations by checking the time to see how much times goes by between beginning of session and end of session. I envisioned floating directly above my body – up and up I went, envisioning a gold cord tying me to my physical body. As I went up, there was nothing, just darkness, but the darkness wasn’t terrifying, and I felt like a non-material entity (more like ‘thought’) moving freely through space/time. I did come to a place where the darkness became blacker than black, and so thick they I could no longer move freely. A being appeared on my right side and their face was blurred. I could not make out a shape or any kind of form, but I did notice their face was blurred. The being said they were there to help me navigate through the ‘blackest of black and the thickness of it,’ and we moved onward, and I could actually feel the resistance, as if I was moving through a very thick substance. Then, I was moving freely again. The being brought me somewhere. I wasn’t in a physical place, but there did appear the likeness of a woman in a long flowing gown who did not speak to me, only showed me the colour spectrum. The colour spectrum seemed to pulsate, as if it had its own heartbeat, or life-source, and as it pulsated, it expanded, and as it expanded, the colour became more diluted by space/time, to the point that eventually I could see no colour. Then, while it was pulsating, it began to come back into itself again, and as it moved into itself, I could see the colour spectrum again, more and more, until it literally collapsed into a pure ball of white light. Then, I was told it was time to go. When I came out of this experience, I saw on my clock that two hours had passed, and yet, it seemed like only minutes.
2. The second occurrence that I wanted to share happened last year, April 29, 2024.
April 17, my husband and I had gone to Nicaragua to visit his family, and while we were visiting one of his uncles, I was introduced to his aunt Violet, who, unfortunately, was in the process of transitioning from this life to the next (I say unfortunately only because those left behind suffer from the loss). This was my first time visiting his family in Nicaragua and my first time meeting Violet. I sat down by her bedside, and held her hand. We smiled at each other and spoke a bit. I could feel her father in the room, and said nothing. I went outside to speak with other family members, and eventually went back inside and I felt a strong inclination to tell her family, that when it’s her time to go, she will feel nothing and she will not be alone, that her father will be there to help her. I shared this message with them. They all cried tears of joy and a small child ran to me and hugged me. Outside, I told my husband that her time was coming very soon.
Fast forward to our flight home. We had to take two planes. We left early in the morning, and on the first flight, above the clouds, I had another experience, but this time, I was not in a meditative trance. I was looking out the window, staring at the clouds and I closed me eyes. Then, I began to see visions in my mind.
‘I could see Miss Violet lying on the bed, and there were four other people there. The space was very bright. The five of us formed a circle around Miss Violet, and it was like we were floating, circling her bed, and we were singing music from our throats and it was beautiful. We continued to float in a circular motion around the bed holding hands and as this was happening, without evening realizing when it had occurred, Miss Violet joined the circle directly across from me between two others holding each being’s hand. Then the circular motion began moving directly upward, and still moving in a circular motion, we went up. I watched her face. Miss Violet was smiling and there was a very bright light that could be seen and from where I was at the moment, it was coming from my upper right side, and so Miss Violet, with her eyes closed, tilted her chin up and smiled deeply as if she was enjoying basking in this light, and then, we were in the light.
In this next ‘level’ I saw nothing but open space; a vast, seemingly never-ending, open space. I saw other beings there. Then, I saw a very tall ladder, and it went directly up. Other beings were either staying in this vast, open space, or, they were being guided upward, up the ladder – they were not physically climbing it. It was more of a guide on where to go. I was below the ladder and then I could feel a very strong physical sucking sensation, as if a vortex sucked me up the ladder, and then, I was in a totally different area. I saw colours I had never seen here in this world. The greens were vibrantly green, and the blue of the water was vibrantly blue. I felt so much pleasure just looking at them. I began to move at the speed of thought, and ended up at what looked like a surreal, other-worldly, orchard of tropical trees of the most vibrant colours I had ever seen. I was moving at the speed of thought, not flying. I had to ‘travel’ to this place, and I saw a mansion. It was beautiful! As I turned the corner to the front of the mansion, I could hear a celebration! I saw Miss Violet again, and she was being greeted with sheer joy from other beings. Keep in mind this entire time, from since the beginning, Miss Violet never once acknowledged my presence.
I watched this joyous union and was so overcome with elevated emotions, until I heard the sound of deep sorrow. I heard anguished weeping. The joyous moment ceased as Miss Violet acknowledged the sound of the anguished grief, and then she looked at me. She told me that I couldn’t stay there, and that I had to go, and she told me to give them a message from her. I won’t share the message as it was personal to the family, but, after she shared the message, I felt that same sucking sensation, and I went back the exact same way that I had ended up in that place, but it all happened in a split second.
When my eyes opened, my husband came back from the washroom, and he acknowledged that he had never seen me ‘black out’ the way I did. He said it was as though I had closed my eyes, and I was gone. This vision took place over a period of twenty minutes or more, so it wasn’t long, but I was sobbing openly. People were looking at me, and I assured them that I was okay, but I couldn’t explain to them what had happened.
I told my husband what had happened, and in the end he asked if I thought she was gone. I told him her body is still alive, but yes, his aunt was officially gone. The following morning, at around the same time, Miss Violet’s body died. I’m telling you, she left before her body died!
I was wondering if you could speak to these occurrences a bit. Also, I apologize for the length.

ParticipantHello!
My name is Christina. My husband and I are moving to Panama shortly, and will be connecting with the Jewish roots of our not-so-distant relatives, with the community there. We will be going through official Jewish conversion, and I decided to take this program to learn more, and hopefully add to my spiritual growth.
