head pulled back in meditation

I even get really dark and harmful thoughts and I’m so scared I will fall to insanity. I think that its probably closest to body distortion but it freaks me out and it interrupts my meditation. What was this? I’ve had a huge range of experiences over the years I’ve been meditating)? I feel the urge to move, but it passes just like an urge to itch. Also this thing happens to me often in sleep, it’s hard to explain accurately but this thing shoots up from spine or stomach and moves up with high speed, and I am taken somewhere (place, event, people… random) and I forget about my identity (myself… name, person, and I am sleeping which I remembered prior takeoff ) and different things happen. It was probably your fear that was producing the shapes, rather than the other way around. Just relax your head, your lips, your jaw, your forehead, and the back of your head. as the charge went up my body an invisible hole appeared in the top of my head, a big hole, and what I can only describe as other-wordly-massive energy, entered through the hole and surged through my body at an impossible speed. They’re communications from a part of you that, like the museum guard, is trying to help. Sometimes if focused on, it launches into a full-blown event. Or is it that it’s somehow taboo to mention this phenomenon? I attend a Zen sangha and have been sitting for an hour per day or more for months. I’m new to meditation, and during my session today, while extremely relaxed and drifting, something screamed at me to come out and pulled me to a highly alerted state! The continuous flow of the breathing is perceived as a visual or tactile infinity symbol. Whichever you choose, this position of the head will be comfortable. Hi Bodhipaksa, Mostly these involve a loss of the normal boundaries of the body. All over. Is this a form the dreamy state not to give attention too, or can there be another meaning? It’s more likely that there is an initial flow of energy in the spine, and that your body is tensing in response to that. On the other hand, maybe part of your mind is freaked out by quietness. Neither of them spoke Italian. Eventually after 20 minutes of that I opened my eyes for no reason and saw myself (I was in the corner of the room) in the other corner on my bed. im not sure Sometimes it’s physically painful while that thing shoots up during sleep. So I think my hunch was right, and that my spine was trying to realign itself. This is obviously not something you can consciously try to make happen again, of course! What he’s done was put a few clues together: they’d obviously been trying to see how they could get up the stairs, the guard seemed like he was trying to be helpful, and some of his hand gestures seemed to be pointing in one direction. It sounds like you’re having panic attacks. Namaste, during meditation would you say that chants or tones via vocal cords would be a distraction or a way to channel your energy? This lasted for the rest of the session (60mins). its my second week of meditation, i feel like something wants to burst out of my head and sometimes a tingling sensation. This kind of energy arises when we’re becoming more sensitized to the sensations of the body because the mind is becoming calmer. I can’t really suggest much except for a) stop doing whatever meditation you’re currently doing, b) see if you can accept the sensations you’re having as normal — it’s OK to experience fear, and there’s no need to be anxious about being anxious, since that just makes things worse, and lastly, 3) if you are going to meditate in the future, make sure you have some guidance and are following a tried and tested path of practice. I’d suggest just noticing when it arises, but making more of an effort to be aware of the parts of the body that are making firm contact with the floor, your seat, etc. Thanks. I don’t necesarrily believe it has anything to do with “enlightenment” or whatever, although I’ve never experienced something like this before, has anyone else experienced something simular and has a more clear answer on it? There was this one time where I meditated in my bed lying down, doing breathing exercises as usual and all of a sudden I got this huge rush of energy starting from the top of my head reaching all the way down to my toes. So I accidentally meditating too much in one day I wanted to explore more of my third eye and I think I messed up ever since I been having I think energy waves in my body and it hurts my chest and I got cramps in my stomach and neck and I feel the energy my mom keeps saying it’s in my head when I actually physical feel it how long does this last it’s almost been a week and I don’t feel like my self. So you had an experience of moving into a state of mind in which there was calmness, purity (freedom from negativity), and a sense of richness. Figure it out for yourself. And I am willing to die for it. I say this because I will close my eyes during a bathroom break at work and I see them. I sit in an upright chair due to a knee problem, say a prayer first to relax and then go into meditation. Perhaps you would benefit from taking a break from posting? I’m afraid I have no idea what a “third eye” is, Eva. it started after about 8mins in, my breathing starting coming rapidly by itself, I went with the flow (go with the flow when meditating is best I find). I’ve never participated in one myself, and so I don’t really know what they teach or hoe it might lead to symptoms like this. i practice meditation about 2-3y and i felt some very strange things,just yesterday night i was meditating ,and after 24 minutes i pronounced “innerpeace”and a very bright light camed a over my body and my eyes were compeltely blinded of that light(i was with my eyes closed)and then my hands and my feet started paralysing.after 10 minutes i counted to 5 and said STOP!.then i could wake up and i was feeling strange.and then when i was trying to sleep i heard someone movin in my bed.i turned around:noone was there.i was freaked out…and then after 10minutes i heard something who inhaled air and then exhaled on my back on the head.i was so freaked out that i couldnt sleep all night.i think this meditation have a strange demonic shits going outin secret…. I was wondering why this happened and what category this would fall under. Due to the universal nature of the crown chakra, you can use inspiration as a sort of trigger. I had a completely different experience during my meditation this morning that I would like to share (and I am very interested in any feedback) – it was very unusual for me. Notice the feelings and urges that arise as well, but don’t buy into them. After about 10 minutes or so I flowed into self metta and when the gong rang I felt/saw golden light in and around me. Why do I get to a scary “layer” when my meditation is successful? I ll give a look around, because i think is something that is missing me to take meditation to another level. That kind of experience is covered above. Depending on the type of meditation that you do, this may happen if you’re prone to it. On a slightly different note, I am writing a blog series on my experiences with meditation @ oshantomon.blogspot.com. I saw that everybody around me in that class was sitting calmly. I meditated for close to an hour, when suddenly I heard the sound of pots banging onto each other in the Kitchen so I figured someone had entered the house and decided to wake up to see who it was, I opened my eyes but couldn’t move my body for about 2 to 3 minutes. The flow of piti that you’re talking about may well constitute a “nimitta,” or an indication that you’re getting close to jhana. The heart rate can slow down quite a lot and I’ve also even experienced the breath stopping. Is your experience that no action ever takes place without a thought such as “now my left index finger is going to move up and to the right and then press on the ‘T’ key”? I think the core difficulty you’re experiencing is that you’re assuming that there is something wrong. Sorry, I don’t know! Those are the things to look out for. Are you getting a little happier? (I surrender pose). It’s just a perceptual distortion of a dream-like nature. This usually makes me pretty humble for a couple of days. Very enjoyable though. I’m never sure what people mean when they talk about the body being numb in meditation. Hi, i had a strange experience this morning during meditation. The path of unconditional love. No, I don’t think this experience is related at all. The rhythm was very steady, and there was no pleasure. They weren’t my own thoughts, but very distinct voices of other people and it some of what I heard was alarming, so I honestly haven’t wanted to meditate since. I had an experience one early morning, when I got a feeling that some one has entered my body. You seem kind of angry, Liam. When the answer comes it might well be in the form of a hunch or an image. Let the mind observe the anxiety rather than participate in it. It’s quite likely that the pleasant experience you had triggered this off, but I’m pretty sure it won’t be a regular occurrence. At that time I had picked up some 25ish shloks (meaning two lined poems) from second chapter of Bhagvadgita. Thank you very much for your response. But it is like little difficult because now even without meditation even if I am working or reading even few sentences those strong sensation and feeling start coming. I felt I had no control over my head and my arms. Then I felt my left arm lift off the arm of the chair. I used to meditate earlier for long time and had all those lighting experiences, universe, stars n everything. You should really talk to a therapist to help you work through these difficult experiences. It is a mantra meditation, bringing the focus back … Blanket not damp where it touches my feet just where it touches tile. I was so scared and opened my eyes. Is this normal. The effects of meditation has come to me quickly, I helped cure my lack of sleep and thanks to it I sleep well at night now. Conflicting negative thoughts keep whirling around in my head. During the 20 minutes meditation maybe in the last five minutes I get the feeling my body has become numb and like a stone immovable…..why is that can anyone answer please ? Its relaxing for sure, I do admit. Push your shoulders out to the front and then upwards while inhaling. Is that what you’re describing? Sometimes though it is quite strong and it helps to simply observe it like I would the breath. During the meditation, I feel tingling in my hands and feet. It’s all just stuff to practice being mindful of. I find myself at times using om and others. where my eye brows joint. Last weekend I was sick laying in bed doing meditation I think I fall asleep and heard someone moving in my bed first I thought it’s hubby but he was talking in living room someone came on top of my whole body I tried to remote quilt from my body 3 times no success finally fourth time I was able to remove quilt from my face and no one was around . If so, it’s quite normal (although not exactly common). Never mind. And now, almost 12 hours later, I still feel that sensations. (“Someone is in my body.”) Then you imagined who this person might be, and saw an image of them. Piti arises from letting go. There’s a big difference, for example, between running marathons and doing tai chi. Most recently between my eyebrows started tingling, I’m worried I may be opening my 3rd eye too soon. No, you’re not on the verge of enlightenment. I’m sure you’ve read the page above, so which category do you think your experiences fit into, Behnaz? It’s never been about release, it’s been about silence and stillness. I asked the teacher, she was not able to explain it to me and did not convince me that it is normal. The cold tingles I attributed to a “wise, calm entity” and the hot tingles to a “emotional, somewhat chaotic, feelings-oriented entity”. Your website is very informative, thanks. If you experience these, please relax and be aware that the sensation of pressure is just a sensation like any other. The path that can bring the ultimate to you.
