I Started Deep Meditation And Had A Weird Experience. Not Predicting Anything...

I started meditating because I have a sleep disorder which is similar to what's called Myoclonus. Basically if I have any stress or worry I 'vibrate' before falling asleep and have jolts that choke me or startle me right as I'm dozing off. I thought I would try meditation before sleep recently. Focusing on stillness and quiet and maybe a mental object, etc.

I've been able to achieve a blank state faster and faster...almost going into a trance. I did it this time and I was thrown into a weird 'dream', but it was clear and real, as if I we there. I wanted to write down what I 'saw' because it felt unlike 99.99% of any dream I've had. I feel compelled to share it so I'll just right down what I saw in notation form so it's easier to read.

1) It was about 4 years into the future. Maybe a little sooner or later but 4 years is the average. I was looking into streets and witnessing a drastic change in society.

2) There was an event that happened. I think it was political/financial. Not so much a natural event or Nuclear. It had to do with laws and power.

2) There were gangs that formed locally. Some people became brutal. Rapes, kidnapping, and theft were common and cities were decimated almost like parts of Chicago. But gangs were everywhere. They were few but strong and people gave up on fighting them and they were chipping away at the 'good' people. There were gang lands and non gang lands.

3) The "garage" was the new form of marketplace. Almost every home with one was doing business out of one. Garages in alley were connected with cardboard boxes and wood like tunnels. And people would visit or trade with each other through mazes in neighborhoods. People were walking through holes in neighbors backyards and fences to get to a 'store'.

4) Items which were important were 'replacement' items. Light sockets, bulbs, circuit breakers, switches, door hinges, tires, tools. Most garages looked like a mini hardware store. Canned food was like gold.

5) Streets were blocked off at the ends. Neighborhoods became mini malls (can't describe it). Street syndicates were formed to keep out gangs. Nobody went out on streets and alley ways were claimed by NON gangs. (This was a big theme)

6) Single women were almost hidden from sight. I don't know why. Mothers and daughters were around but I kept wondering where average single women were. They were off somewhere or hiding, and many were 'taken' by someone.

7) Things were recycled and reused and major retailers or corporations weren't making much of anything. Society stood still.

8) Federal Government or government was almost in name only but still there.

9) I saw drones that would fly the sky on outskirts of towns, more for the gangs. There was buzzing noise constantly in some parts.

10) Everyone was guilty of a Federal Crime but the Government couldn't get in most towns to arrest 'offenders' so the Govt. would issue notices that trials punishment for a crime would commence when the "order was restored".

11) Europe followed the lead with this 'local' lifestyle. But the U.S. had it more organized and were better at it. All the 'western' and 'advanced' nations had the same set up though, and the same issues with gangs.

12) The Internet was not what it is. Servers were split and high level gangs had control of some, Government the other, and regular civilians had a very small access. Nobody had a connection to the Net that I saw. Shortwave, CBs, radios were used.

13) A disease became rampant. One that already exists. It had side effects that showed on the skin, teeth. There was some mineral or vitamin we missed in this new life. 1 out of 4 people had it, but it was almost acceptable and temporary(?) Medication for it ran out and nobody had a natural treatment. (Scurvy)?

14) Wars became local with gangs and people forgot about International issues.

15) Everyone was angered. There were no celebrations, not even for kids. Very few smiled. It was miserable and it go to a point where people couldn't adjust to living this way. A lot of people lost their sanity Some killed for no reason. Children were rare. Families had higher odds of survival. People without family joined gangs. "Friends" were just neighbors. Families lived with each other and built extra rooms and 'garages'. People felt trapped for the most part and got tired of seeing the same faces.

16)The 'event' that happened came shortly after or before a vote. It felt like a Presidential thing at the same time a financial decision. They were simultaneous but not really connected. I didn't see a nuke, an asteroid, or anything.

17) I didn't see an issue with electricity or water, which doesn't make sense. Things just kept breaking and repair was constant on little things we take for granted. Parts and pieces were collected everywhere.

I didn't 'see' anything beyond this.

I am NOT claiming any "prophecy". I don't believe anyone can see the future. I just had to share this weird experience with someone. If anything it's entertainment, but I did experience this and I'm not doing a creative writing sort of thing (as if this is good writing in the first place). And it reads like a lot of movies/stories that are already out there so this isn't really profound.

Hell if someone wants to use it for a script go ahead, I dunno.

Sooooooo you're saying Obama is going to win 2012....

S&F just because it was a good read. Feels like the start of plot for a film or MMO.

Madmax? Postman? Hmm.
Sounds scary, but nevertheless: in Europe there are not that many guns in private hands (hunters excluded) that we would have a larger gang-problem than in the USA. Gangs hereabout are nearly unknown - they took out a motorcycle gang yesterday and look what they found in weapons: "Neben Festplatten beschlagnahmten die Polizisten auch einen Elektroschocker, ein Messer und ein Beil." - a tazer, a knife, one axe...

As a fellow Myoclonus sufferer you have my empathy , but I really can't buy into the rest of your opening post .

Peace

HAHAHAHAHA, you took the words right out of my mouth. As I was reading it, I thought... 'So, this means Obama won', that's awesome.

Great post, regardless of any truths it may reveal. S&F

haha whoa I was about to post those exact words except replace I'm with hes...

some people... Just don't get it. Thanks for the happy bedtime story. Now my dreams will be "fun." haha

Don't let the visions take a hold of you when you meditate. Let the worries flow. That is the entire point of it. You might have contacted realms where fear or worry is in the best interest of the inhabitants. Clinging to dreams and visions with worry is really not a sign that you are mastering meditation. Advocating visions from other realms is really a bad sign, it might show that you don't properly understand the path mankind is on. Troubling thoughts, meditate on them and set them free. Remember that wisdom flows both from meditation and life. If you want to achieve wisdom only through meditation you'll have to battle your inner demons. And, it seems like you didn't win yet. Meditate more. Spread care instead of fear to those around you. When mankind is crippled with fear, we're not a pretty sight. Remember thoughts hold the keys to our freedom as well as our imprisonment. At the end you'll realize that we are tormented by our own guardians, but we have more freedom then you can imagine.

Haha, I'm in Europe and my arsenal is much more extensive than that, and I'm not in any gangs.

Keep meditating. It's a good sign that you were able to go so deep into a trance after a short time of practice. Most people (me included) have to practice for years to go that deep and have an intense experience like you did. The Hindus believed in your dreams you could go and do anything in the universe past, present or future anywhere on any planet or in any situation. Could be a past life, this life or another dimension all together. The important thing is you had this experience and it will drive your curiosity to look deeper into your own reality. Inside your mind is where it's all at and you will be able to deal with any situation when it comes. These dreams are just preparation for some unknown event or reality in your life right now. And even a little effort towards spiritual awareness will protect you from the greatest fear.
