Ok, this is probably the dodgiest post I have ever done(!), and this more belongs in the magick thread, and I would be interested in the response it elicits there, but here goes:
.. . I have on occasion had the same experience with apparent x-ray vision myself..The first time was on a psilocybin trip where I could see through my jacket and stare at my t-shirt underneath. One half of me was covered in jacket, the other half was t- shirt (I’ll elaborate on this if anyone asks). This made me laugh out loud, nut even though I closed my eyes and opened them, the persisted for about two more minutes before my jacket returned to ‘normal’… Subconscious memory juxtaposed on reality hallucinatory/holographically, or was I filtering out certain wavelengths of light enabling me to see through the fabric? Was I in the presence of an electromagnetic field phenomenon that fused with my bio electric field creating such an anomaly? (I won’t go into all the ramifications or speculation this may bring here as it would take too long), After it happened I experimented around the, putting objects under things and seeing if I could see them, but alas, to no avail.
Robert Anton Wilson in the preface of the modern edition of Prometheus risings states a case where lsd trippers could apparently see radiowaves around a transmitter. These peculiar phenomena are maybe past evolutionary traits (possibly to do with survival, but maybe not) that are now latent or dormant. The way birds ’see’ wind currents and geo-magnetism being examples of this…..John C Lilly says on his first acid trip that he had the experience of being able to see straight through the earth and to the constellations of stars beyond…
I have had, and still do have experiences where I appear to be seeing straight through my eyelids (in bed, at raves/parties)…I am familiar with hypnogogic/hypnopompic activity and I frequently lucid dream, but this phenomena is definitely not related. I practice magick, nlp etc, but this was not a desired result, so its not a case of wanting to believe, rather me trying to make sense of an experience. A friend of mine who is prone to out of body experiences has reported these phenomena too. Apparently it is also a classical experience of the kundalini energy being aroused, and is related to the ajna (third eye) chakra. I’m versed in science and the occult, so I’m not trying to approach this subject with a woolly head, like ’far out man, I see through things…’There does seem to be a body of evidence surrounding these experiences that gives them some degree of credibility. Obviously I am open to criticism as the first experience I describe was under the influence of psilocybin, albeit a mild dose ..But of course this opens the old argument of whether or not certain psychoactive chemicals open up these doorways and forgotten neural pathways and gives us access to race memory and hence possible lost survival skills….
On the notion of ‘seeing the things you were not meant to see’ (and yes, I have seen that movieJ), is not psychic phenomena similar in some ways that we seem to be able to transmit and receive information via some unknown medium within our local and non-local environments in such a way that reveals hitherto hidden information? An ultra intense psychometry, imagine instead of gleaning an object or person, you took in a large chunk of the environment, go further still, a vast chunk of the universe? Consider King Mobs freakout in Australia in the invisibles, I haven’t got the invisibles to hand at the moment but I know he speaks deliriously in part glossolalia, part stream of channelled thought, what he does say amongst the psychobabble is mention ‘x-rays ‘ in a way as if he’s seeing too deep into the universe… This sense of occult information overload seems to be a case of ‘seeing too much’ as someone else remarks, (I think its fayed) something like ‘if we were to see truth in its totality it would blind us’…
For the record, I had totally forgot/dismissed my own experiences with this until I read this thread. If indeed we do have a case where someone has this ‘gift’ 24-7 then that is fascinating, also kindly letting me know I may not be raving fucking mad …
I just know it’s going to be proved to be a load of bollocks... |
