I was lying on bad and meditated -dont remember but perhaps on heart center - then focused only on - I am - feeling and my eyes were closed, then suddenly I started to see (with closed eyes) something like a black hole, but not like a circle, rather like an egg shape; and I felt it tries to suck me in, I felt it so much that started to do physical movements against this to not go into it and it felt 100% real.
This is first time I had such an experience.
Could somebody tell me what it was and what to do next time with it? |

This is your practices at work. Your Self created this experience. If you were scared, know you can always back out of it (as you discovered) at will. There is no reason to be scared of the scenery, nothing will happen to disappear you from this reality, this is but an episode to enjoy for what it was, and then release it and be open to whatever comes next for you. As Yogani would often say, good things are happening  |

Hello Raff,
From Zen teacher Huang Po: "The substance of the absolute is inwardly like wood or stone, in that it is motionless, and outwardly like the void, in that it is without bounds and obstructions. it is neither subjective or objective, has no specific location, is formless, and cannot vanish. Those who hasten toward it dare not to enter, fearing to hurtle down through the void with nothing to cling to or stay their fall. So thez look to the brink and then retreat. |

This reminds me of the story of the ghost in the closet. When one thinks there is a ghost in the closet, it is very scary. One imagines its shining eyes, and cruel smile, and so on - and it gets worse and worse. But if one dares to open the closet door and looks the ghost in the face, it turns into a pile of rags.
The same with the experiences that might come to you. If they are so strong that you forget about the meditation, just walk to them, turn to them, greed them. When the attitude changes, the flavor of the experience changes. There is a lesson, an opening, an offering, something to learn from it. There is nothing to fear. The resistance is something we ourselves create. When the experience is consummated, it dissolves - and with it there is an expansion, an opening.
As about falling through the void, it does come with a complete trust and letting go. Yes, it is a never-ending fall - and there is no ground to hit. It is awareness turning to itself, over and over again. it is the mystery of what we are.  |

When we have God show us these communications or messages, they can often take time for us to deduce. They mean more than one thing, they have a connection directly to us and we can sometimes mistake our imagination for them (with basic practice this confusion goes away but sometimes awakening beings have problems with this and things like paranoia and other issues can crop up). Often my most powerful ones repeat multiple times and the better ones contain their explanation in a knowing. Sometimes through they show up and I just have to receive them and know that my experience of them is shifting my experience of existence the way it needs to be shifted.
One tool I use is looking at this as me telling myself about myself. This can help you find a meaning to this. Another is that it can be a knowing manifestation of how I am behaving, whats to come or some other aspect of prophesy. For this, I then have to look at the "torah" or Truth of my life as a story of life lessons I'm living and include the vision to see what lesson is coming up next. To have a vision that powerful is a very good sign and the next question is, what came up as a fear, what came up as something that wasn't one with God, which is Infinite and The All, and what did. If you had this vision again, could you sit with it in joy and explore what it's about? With time this will all make sense, often these have to be interpreted inside and then you can figure out it's wisdom but I hope my additional perspective helped you unlock this a little bit more.
