sorry, ancy for answers. still I get the feeling you know much more than you let on. I wanna know what you mean about getting sucked in. what is the danger? and a half a dozen other questions I'd rather not ask here. someplace we can talk? I'm new to how all this net stuff works.
The astral maybe. Other dimensional forces possibly. I have many more questions than answers.
Sometimes I think forces use some things to make us vulnerable.

Being sucked in..............A vortex, a whirlpool. Spin.....Distortion and clarity.

I really enjoy threads like this. To hear different accounts from different people like this is very interesting.

I'm not saying I don't believe everything that's been contributed to this thread is real or fake. I certainly won't sit here and tell someone what they are feeling isn't real. But the fact remains, the OP, and from the sounds of it, other people as well, are achieving this "awakening" while under an influence. Does that not raise at least the slightest bit of doubt in anyone else? Being under an influence...of any kind...to me at least, takes away from the entire concept of being awake, or being able to see things for real now, or experiencing true reality, or claiming to see the world the way it really is. Again, I'm no hypocrite, and I'm not preaching. I believe in a lot of things, and I know the power of drugs. All I'm saying is that no one seems to want to question the fact that this person (and others) were under the influence when these things occurred. I would like to think that these "awakenings" can and should occur with a clean state of mind...which is why I'm not into the drugs.
I apologize for going off topic,but
Dear "Gods Child of the Universe.".Marijuana,Peyote,Mushrooms,etc. are not DRUGS. DRUGS are Man Made, these items I just mentioned are products of GOD.They grow harmoniously in nature along with all the other things that man and all the other animals on this planet subsist on. GOD didn't make them illegal MAN did,because those in CONTROL had no authority over it's distribution. MAN "KIND"S present situation is because MAN has tried to assert HIS law on what is a natural GOD given universal process. Before YOU can become enlightened enough to advance to a higher state of mind, you'll need to become deprogrammed from all the authoritarian propaganda you have been brainwashed to believe. Millions of dollars of our community dollars are spent eradicating a natural grown plant.It costs hundreds of dollars to buy even a small quantity and makes criminal cartel rich and disrupts our economy with lost money and our society with the crimes committed in the pursuit of this ILLEGAL plant substance. If it was legal to be grown and you and I could grow it for our own use only and use it legally at a certain age of course, immediately overnight the value would be the same as the grass growing in your yard.NOTHING! Drug cartels would cease to exist,crime relating to the production and distribution would end and our policemen could be used to fighting the abuse of MAN-made drugs and the criminals that produce them.

You got it right.
If only you knew what it was that you know.
Because that is it.
Black hole and they want to suck as much into it as possible before the seperation occurs.

Your "altered state" makes you very suseptible to demonic forces.
I think you'll find all the answers you're looking for, in the Bible. I'm sure you have one. Blow the dust off and start reading. There is a great deception that is under-way. The Bible warns of the deception that will come. Read the gospels and pay close attention to everything Jesus says about how it will be when He returns. Read Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
I have been realizing for months now that Satan is going to use global warming, environmentalism, etc, to bring together the unified church, prophecied of in the Bible. It will be unified in the belief that man must save this planet from its demise. The focus will be completely off of Christ and completely onto man. It's already happening in many churches, and it is going to increase to the point that any church preaching the Word of God, as it is written, will be persecuted. That's my belief.
I believe that just as those of you that aren't Christians, think you've had some sort of enlightenment in the past few months, I have as well and I'm a very grounded, spirit filled, Christian. My awakening though is to a greater ability to discern the truth and the lies in the things that I read, hear, etc. I'm not a Bible scholar and I'll admit I haven't even read the entire Bible, yet somehow I do know when something lines up with the scripture of the Bible or when it doesn't. How do I know it? The Holy Spirit gives me that knowledge.
As for the dizzy vortex feeling some have described, I was at an afterglow service a few weeks ago and had a similar feeling. I thought I might fall out of my chair. As soon as I closed my eyes I felt dizzy and it went right into a vision of an ocean and a cliff. A man was standing at the edge of the cliff, with his hands in his pockets, looking out at the sunset and I felt as though I was flying - I was looking down at him as I passed by. I was flying out over the ocean and wondering why I was seeing/feeling this when the woman playing the guitar started singing the chorus of the song she had been singing all along, "... on eagles wings." I realized that the man on the cliff was standing by watching the setting of the sun, the coming of the end of our days, standing at a cliff, representing a great fall that he was about to take, and I was flying on eagles wings - on the wings of God. I could not fall and he would carry me into the sunset. I would be fine. For me, there should be no fear.
Anyway, just wanted to share that vision. No drugs were involved.
