I thought a thread might be interesting.
I have quite a few experiences , and I suspect they are coloured by autism.
Here's one;
I was trying to find the root of what "I" am.
I was doing a load of meditation, watching videos of enlightenment gurus and stuff. I had made some progress and suddenly I started getting headaches.
I really never get headaches at all, and these felt like there was huge pressure in my skull, especially in my temples and it felt like my head would explode they were that intense.
Almost not unpleasant though, but somewhat painful and this intense, constant pressure.
I did one search online to see if they could be connected with my spritual practice, and I found a video talking about kundalini and chakras and the build up and release of energy as people awaken.
The video pointed out that blocked chakras and awakening can result in energy getting stuck at a chakra point like the crown chakra at the head. And it happens when bodies are not ready for the spiritual experience they are going through.
Trouble was I didn't believe in chakras
I took it on board though and decided to do what felt natural.
It did feel like energy pressure, and it felt close to the surface of my temples, so I tried to pull it out with my fingers.
This worked, and I imagined I was pulling threads of power out of my skull and swooshing them away with my fingers.
This felt awesome, and the pressure declined and disappeared. It kept coming back for a few months, and when it did I did the same thing to releve it.
Eventually it stopped building up, and never happened again.
A very strange experience where the spiritual affected the material.
