While attending Chiropractic College in Chicago the following took place. While sitting on my bedroom floor praying to God to “please clean me out” over and over again as a fellow student sent a distance reiki healing (form of spiritual and energetic healing) I began to take more and more breath in until I took in so much air my lungs expanded and breathing stopped. Although I did not know it at the time (before reading or studying yoga) this breathless state was Samadhi or Oneness with Source.
This orgasmic bliss felt like the most powerful sexual orgasm but only 20X more powerful. I can still recal this episode to this day. I now understand this was my first experience in Nirvikalpa Samadhi.
A few months later after having performed a 23 day fast drinking only water I was using self testing (a form of self divination or dowsing) to search about Chicago, USA. While not thinking to much of the feelings and suggestions I made to a class mate earlier that day while in clinic (telling her I wouldn’t be back in clinic the next day) I was guided to a movie rental store parking lot.
After receiving confirmation through self testing that this was were I was supposed to be guided to I parked my car and looked into the rear view mirror. I was amazed at what I saw! Looking at the mirror I saw was could only be described as a HImalayan Yogi sitting against the movie rental store.
I quickly got out of my car closed the door and ran up to prostrate at the feet of this Saint. I knew right then and there that this was no ordinary man. He eyes sparkeled with a magical twinkle as if his eyes were not real. It was not like anything I had ever seen before. To this day I have never seen eyes like this (not like some fake contact colours) but a silverly twinkly like the most powerful stars on a clear night twinkling on and off.
As I prostrated the yogi backed off (Today I now understand it is on right and proper to ask permission to touch a holy saints feet). As he moved away from me I asked was he my guru. He said no.
Then as he moved away from me two homeless men came out of nowhere and began to ask me things I was just talking to my class mates about earlier that day. This seemed bizzare but was was more bizzare was one of the men began to question me about my abilities, powers, and wanted my help.
Then the homeless man turned on me and I only thought (quite likely coming from the Yogi’s intentions) to sit on the ground and meditate.
I then first saw the Holy Star or third eye. As I meditated and focused at the third eye the man who was threatening me calmed down. As my focus waned he began to get threatening.
Some time after this had continued (on and off threatening) someone local must have called the ambulance and firetrucks since a paramedic woke me out of my trance.
The homeless men and even yogi having left I was confronted only by the paramedics. He questioned if I was using drugs or was taking any medication. Having a clean bill of health and never taking drugs before that day (or to this day and likely for ever) he asked me to get into the ambulance and go to the hospital to get checked out.
He checked my vitals and straped me into a bed/cart. As we moved away all I could think of was who was that yogi, and that I had no American Health insurance. I then witnessed what seemed like that yogi within my mind. More than a internal voice it was a intuitive sense that this yogi was going to help me get out. I began to struggle with the straps moving my body back and forth.
Getting into the hospital I broke free of the straps and made a run for it. Four nurses jumped on me and the “guidance” told me to wiggle my little foot up and down. I began to levitate, lifting the nurses into the air. My whole body was of of the ground then a fifth nurse stabbed my with a needle and I passed out…
While much has happened since this accident and I do not fully know who that yogi was, my experiences in Kriya and Yoga have developed higher states of consciousness, a pure realization that Babaji was likely the embodiment of the himalayan form of the yogi I met, and that although much mystery surrounds that evening it was my first experience in the use of spiritual siddhis.
