Hello,
this i remembered yesterday, thinking of all my experiences, if i haven't forgotten something. It was summer 1997, i was living on the Pleinweg, Rotterdam and had this trancendental experience while chanting Hare Krishna for the first time, a lucid dream for the first time and some OBE experiences, so it was a magic summer there in this house (too big for me alone). I remember that i came back from jogging in the morning and as i always did, i sat down to meditate, sweating all over, still breathing heavy (now i know that it's better to lie down in Shavasana, death man's pose, for a while, untill the sweating stops, the breathing is normal and the skin is dry), anyway, i did this and after a while i was in meditation, feeling very nice and relaxed. Suddenly i found myself saying to myself, out of the blue, mentally, : "the telephone will ring, what do you do, pick it up or leave it ?" I didn't understand this thought, but some 2-3 seconds later the telephone rang ( i had a mobile phone). So, puzzled, i picked up the phone, my brother was on the line and he told me that he would bring back the 25 gulden (some 11.50 euro), he borrowed from me a while ago. He asked me how to do this and i said that he could just trow it through the ( i don't know the english name, is it letterbox?,). So he hang up and i continued to meditate. You see, i was sitting upstairs on the 3rd floor in my bedroom meditating and then there is a long stairs (some 5-6 meters) down to the corridor, then turn left, then you had to walk this corridor (3-4 meters), turn left again to another stairs, that would lead you to the frontdoor and this "letterbox" which was some kind of horizontal "hole" in this door, this stairs is also like 3-4 meters down. Then some 10 minutes or so later i could perfectly hear someone opening the letterbox in the door, i could hear that something was being pushed through it and, this is, for me, amazing, i could HEAR THE 25 GULDEN NOTE FALLING ON THE GROUND. It was a very subtle sound but i could ,very distinctively, hear it falling on the ground. So i knew that my brother had returned the money, but since i never had witnessed such a thing, i broke my meditation and went down, just to see with my own eyes, if it was like i thought it was. And yes, there was this note lying on the floor..... You understand that i was very surprised and puzzled over this fact, but it strengthened me in my conviction that i just had to go to India. One year later, i gave up this magic house, gave it to an ex-girlfriend Patricia Roos, and went to India, just for 4 months. Ganjananda |
