I thought, "Maybe I could catch a fish and use some of the meat as bait? Or maybe my family will bring something edible so I can put it on the hook?"

While I was wondering this, I went into a trance in the dream and went through a cosmic tunnel- similar to the kind that people who experience near-death encounters describe. I was sucked through this vortex that took me into the sky.

Suddenly, I 'heard' a voice like telekinesis say "What do you want it to say?" and then within a split second, stars rolled out like a tablecloth in the sky from right to left and spelled out "Congratulations!" Then I was back in my body beside the river and I still had my fishing pole in my hand, wondering what just happened. Then my family returned.

Any thoughts? Thanks
I'm just been dialoguing with Thunder Bow, a member of this forum, about the Vision Quest. You are left alone and have a cosmic experience--sounds a lot like a Vision Quest.

Stars saying congratulations has as interesting feel to it. It feels a bit like a game show. It doesn't quite fit with a cosmic experience. So there is this transformation taking place in you, I think, associated with experiencing the cosmos, but there is some other quality to it that makes it pat. Maybe you have a real potential for uniting with the cosmos, but you have some need in yourself to interpret the experience in a certain way rather than a truer perception of what happens.

Is there a way in your life right now that you are pursuing spiritual experience?
