Another type of vision is seeing
historical events of the past, such as battles, coronations, crusades,
cavalry charges and you can see all these things going on at the same
time and they get mixed up with each other. For example, a battle may
spread into where a coronation is taking place and then crusaders can
try to fix things up, but will be challenged by a cavalry charge, etc.
You may see people together who weren't alive at the same time and weren't
alive during ancient times where the scene takes place. For example,
you can see Bill Clinton shaking hands with George Washington and they
are in ancient Egypt outside a jeweled palace by the Nile River or they
may be involved in one of the battles or crusades along with your brother
or someone else that you know.
Don't figure on it, but there is nothing stopping The Three Stooges
from making an appearance and somehow getting involved in all of this.
You might see superhuman figures, gods, saints, heroes, warriors, animals,
monsters, cartoon figures, elves, dwarfs, goblins, angels and mythological
figures of folklore, legends, myths, fairytales, etc. You might see
magical forests or breathtaking scenery of all colors or visions of
paradise. The sky the limit as to what you can see, meaning that there
is no limit.
When you see all of this with your eyes closed, you aren't just seeing
it, but it's as if you are living it. The visions are so vividly clear,
the details so intricate, the light so brilliant, the colors so radiantly
dazzling, the people and places so real that you know that this is ultimately
meaningful and significant. Everything here is on an ultimate level.
If you see an ancient temple with glowing jewels and colors everywhere,
you know that this is the home of the gods, that you are one of them,
that you belong there and you do. There is something ultimately rich,
exotic and sensuous about the whole thing. You may see scenes of wild
dances, carnivals, orgies and harems. The exotic scenes can be part
of a vision of religious ceremonies and rituals. At some point, you
realize that this is heaven and paradise.
The way it may happen is that you will be getting visions and suddenly,
there is just a bright light. All you see is this brilliant light. It
might be white or yellow or all of the colors, like a rainbow is all
the colors. It's not just a light and there is no further way to explain
this with words, but you know that this is God, that this is where you
came from and where you'll go later. This "light" may engulf
you so that you are merged or united with God or ultimate reality. This
is the religious experience of realizing that the ego really is, without
any doubt, just that tiny fraction of one percent and that this, now,
is your real, original, full, ultimate identity. You are in heaven and
at home. Heaven is our original home.
Whether it's seeing the glorious temple with jewels or seeing that brilliant
"light" or whatever stimulus brings on the realization, the
religious experience or the illumination or enlightenment, it is likely
to be a sudden flash of awakening that won't last long. You might see
it for just an instant or a few seconds, but you will feel it and know
what it means, without question or doubt that this is it, what the LSD
experience is all about and what life is all about. When you see and
feel it, it's a sure shot certainty as to what you saw and felt. If
a doubter asks you how you know that you saw God and realized your original
identity with God, all you can tell them is that there was not a possibility
of doubt. If they still think that you are crazy, they always will,
unless and until they try LSD and find out for themselves.
You may not have this ultimate experience on your trip or have it in
this way. A person can have a religious experience without closing their
eyes. Seeing something in the room or seeing a tree outside or seeing
anything, while tripping, can bring it on. When you close your eyes,
you still have contact or a link with the room you are in, the other
people and that you took the LSD. You'll see visions and may want to
stop and open your eyes. You might open your eyes because what you are
seeing is so fascinating that you want to go deeper and deeper into
it, but are afraid that if you do, you might never come back. If someone
holds your hand, you will feel the link to the world that you are familiar
with and feel more confident about going on and being able to return.
