I had something happen today that I'd like to share:
I haven't been meditating very long, and in fact my life has been hectic lately with personal issues.
Today, I spent a good time in a meditative state to seek time to relax. My usual activity while in this trance-like state is to visualize building a stone pillar. I see the stones, stack them, take them down then start again.
This time, while stacking the stones, something different happened. I didn't visualize this, or try to bring it into being, but a tree appeared. This tree wasn't large, but it had a massive trunk and gorgeous foliage. At first it passed me right by, but I used all my energy to catch it. When I did I felt compelled to reach out to touch the tree. What happened next is something I will never forget: I felt an energy flow through my hands and into my heart that I have never felt before. I could feel it course through me like a shock wave, and I couldn't let go.
Finally, as it had came into being the tree faded away and I was left with my stone blocks.
What could this be? What sign have I witnessed? I can still feel that energy inside me, like a ball of light that sits under my heart.
