2 years ago I have experienced something weird when meditating. I was very stressed at that time and wanted to get out of it. While I sat down and cleared my mind an idea popped up. It was"I have many working points in my self development but I can work on them. There is enough time. I can choose to be stressed or I can let go of it". That thought gave me so much peace of mind that I entered the deepest meditation ever. After a long time of inner peace it happend. I saw a white bright light on a background of black. It was as big like the top of a toothpick. I focused on the light and it shone brighter. It grew bigger and had the form of a drawn star. It grew fast, exponentially, until all I could see was bright white light. I had entered some sort of divine place. Someone said "Congratulations, you did it!". I didn't know what was happening and felt scared. I came back as fast as I came. There was information flooding into my brain. Info that I would need and info that I didn't. I can't remember the info but it would appear to me when needed.
After that I quit meditating for a long time. I could not believe what I had experienced. I thought I went crazy. I had red very little about meditation and only knew it would relieve stress. Has someone experienced something similar? I would like to hear your story.
