Silence
is what I breathe in and breathe out. What lied in front was darkness and what
lied behind was darkness as well. It seemed there was no ambient noise and felt
as if I was within a void. Heart beat was steadily rising and could feel its
rhythm. The beats of a “Damru” and the pulse of the nerves were nearing the
same. But soon numbness set into my feet and there was this strange tingling in
them.
I
started feeling lighter and seemed to be vibrating with the energy. A strong
gush of wind blew past me and I felt as if I was blown away in the emptiness of
space. I truly felt as if I was defying laws of gravity, probably Mr. Newton
may not be exactly elated at it (in the heaven or may be in hell.. who
knows..!!!). What I experienced next was incredible. All of a sudden, felt a
sharp momentum and started spinning about a thin beam of light. It was really
fast and I felt more than a touch dizzy. I was spinning faster and faster in
the void.
After
some time the dizziness and the anxiety gave way to tranquility and calmness.
It seemed that I was now rotating, almost gliding about a beam of light on a curved
space. I could very well be moving on the surface of ellipsoid. The beam of
light then just vanished, with me being lost in the nothingness of void. That
is all I can recollect before coming out of the trance by the loud ring of my
cell phone (damn)..!!!
It
makes me think, if the cell phone wake me up from a dream or did it put me into
a dream..!! I guess the state of trance just dissolved the line between a dream
and the non-dream, or it’s possible that there is no distinction between the
two.
