Ever feel like you died and instantly were in a parallel universe?

in theory, you could go to sleep and go to an parallel univerise

a new conspiracy.. :)

you can check out "the montauk project" or vids w Preston Nichols or Al Beilek for some interesting stuff related to this thread..

Ahh I hate when stuff like that happens. One of the most frightening dreams I had was when I was extremely tired and I go to sleep and.. you know when you stay awake for too long you can't always just simply fall asleep but have those bad our weird dreams and you wake up but not completely and then fall asleep again plus a bit of sleep paralysis?

So in the dream I'm laying in my bed in the exact place as I am in waking life and there's this creature that is trying to get at me and I forcefully wake up but instantly fall asleep again and it continues and I can taste salt, the creature tastes like salt. I again force myself to wake up but don't have the strength to stay awake and then the creature is going for my eyes and it almost pokes them out but I manage to wake and freaking turn the lights on and just state at the place by my bed where the creature was standing in the dream. I then slept with the lights and the tv on and it was ok. fucking creepy. and you can feel everything. I hate so much when that happens.

Sure drugs can simulate these experiences. So can exhaustion, music, sex, bad food, meditation, church...etc.. an altered state is an altered state. none of that means it isn't occuring or can't occur naturally. Shamen led tribes for longer than our culture has been around based on such visions. We have had presidents who think God talks to them. Genius and madness are closely allied.

Oh but I think we DO.

Good post
I have drowned twice.

That's easy. They were travelling pants. ;)

I must be broken then, Ive been dead twice and keep reviving in the same body in the same freaking timeline. Somebody fix me quick.

what, something like in the tv series called Awake?

I think the worst part about this is the literal fact that when you try and compare your memories to reality there are differences. Probably one of the weirdest experiences out there.

I'm gonna have to admit I've seen whole names change from one to another and everyone will swear up and down it has always been like that. If you research on the internet it will even go back years like it's always been that way. Pictures and every single thing to prove it's existence changed except your memories.

Yes, I've felt like this before. I certainly feel like I'm in a different world/timeline now than I was about 4-5 years ago.

The most profound experience happened when I was 18, a few days after I had tried shrooms. I had a low dose, it was a fun yet mild experience, but the real trip came a few days after the fact. During this post-shroom experience I stayed awake for about 3 days.

My perception of reality was VERY heightened, and literally felt like I had ascended into a dream-like reality/4th dimension. My long term memory sprung to life in a way I never thought possible, and using my third eye, was able to relive all of my memories and even change them around a bit.

After a while, I started to wonder if I had died, and that this experience was a transition into the higher realms of consciousness. Having the heightened access to memories gave me the impression that I was going through some sort of life review that's commonly experienced when dying. I also had this sensation in my third-eye that I was moving through a wormhole, traveling to a higher dimension or a parallel reality. Maybe this is the "light at the end of the tunnel" that's commonly associated with physical death.

Whether or not I had experienced a physical death, and was crossing over to a parallel universe, or something else, idk. What I do know is that I had glimpse of what life is like in the higher realms. Time and space becomes "slippery" and the power of one's thoughts is supercharged to point of becoming an incredibly powerful tool of manifestation.

whoa I just listened to the audio on that page and it's exactly like that.

I've heard this sound my entire life, and still do. It's almost like someone scratching a chalkboard that never ends. I attributed it to my hypersensitivity. I have autism and it causes a sensory disorder.

I guess you either go back to an earlier period in your life, or you start over.

If your life actually did start over would you be able to perceive that restart, and remember, or would it be your life flashing before your eyes and than changing at the last instant?

Yeah. I was digging that video as well, and thanks! I found that many worlds mario video by chance when I was 16 years old.

Somehow like this man, and you yourself, I have experienced these things.

I know that if it is from our perspective and perception of this universe that as someone may die from our perspective we also may die from another perspective. Perhaps all live eternally from their own perspective.

I wonder if Alzheimers is people remembering more than one universe. Or like a taped over cassette.

Alzheimer's damages and kills brain cells so it's more like taking the tape and smashing it to pieces.

Alot of different ways I would guess. The reincarnation stories are not 100% accurate because that person probably popped in from an alternate reality.

Perhaps all live eternally from their own perspective.
quoting cjstryker

That's basically what I am thinking too.. And would make a lot of sense in the big picture. If there is a creator, and he doesn't do it this way. He is kind of a dick. Because death and suffering suck balls.

I think this is possibly what a lot of prophets are trying to tell us when they speak of eternal life and that the kingdom of heaven is at hand or within us. This world could be paradise if people didn't have a fear of death.

That's completing the game. Then you start a new one.

I think that you are supposed to wipe the hard drive and not really remember, but some bleeds through like files that were deleted.. only the index is erased but you can get to the data if you know where to look. That causes the "past lives" feeling...
.......and technically, you still exist in the previous life because linear time is just how we perceive things. It is all really simultaneous. You exist in all the possible universes "all the time" That's just too much for most people to handle right off the bat. gotta ease into that stuff. :)

Yeah I think we are eternal, but not as we are now, not in the sense of the individuals we are and personalities that we have right now. And yeah, sure, we never die, in the sense that we don't disappear anywhere. If we think of changing realities all the time, after some time we change maybe to a place where the physical is no more so we aren't as we are but still exist.

And the creator, it's not really someone. it's kind of us and everything that is. you are the creator and also just a part of the creator. The idea of thinking of oneself as being a separate individual is becoming more and more strange to me but I guess where we are right now with time being perceived as linear, it's just one of the things that fit in with being here.

the creator is exactly as much of a dick, so to say, as we are. :D

Yep. There are other worlds than these. We are all one. And sometimes we can be dicks.

yeah, drops of water that mix back into the ocean. don't disappear but you can't separate the exact same drop from the ocean again. and it's all the same thing - water.
might be as simple as that.

not consciously, but we know why we make things happen the way they do. why you notice something being strange and others don't. why "bad" things happen.

I started a thread here a few years back asking people their thoughts on what they think it was when i went to sleep in one place and woke up in another city, I got told that I shouldn't talk about it, here of all places. hah, no one has come to get me yet :D

This thread helped a lot. it feels right.
But everything also feels way more strange now. In a good way, I think.

Embrace the possibilities. Makes life more interesting. "The unexamined life is not worth living."

I loved that show!! so sad they cancelled it, had so much potential.

They cancel all the good ones that might make too many people go 'hmmm'

Never saw it. Ill have to check it out. My point is that there are multiverses in your head as well as outside.
