Default Meditation in states of Hypnagogia

Ive been been meditating for just over a year now and have recently found my meditation experiences have started to become like the visual and auditory phenomena that i sometimes get before sleep - Hypnagogia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The difference is that i dont fall asleep but drift in and out of this state and it comes on very quickly when i start meditating, only a few mins into it. I feel quite detached from it so am able to observe it and the images are usually more abstract but the sounds are always voices that are sometimes random but can also be quite profound or people telling me messages, this is also acompanied by feelings of other environments and emotions.

Was wondering if anyone else gets this?

I really just wanted to see if this is a normal type thing during meditation or is it a sign that im meditating at the wrong times when im sleepy so entering this pre-sleep state. I never used to get it though until recently but the time of day i meditate has stayed pretty much the same. Any advice would be really helpful, cheers.

Hi Milamber,

We are all connected in this consciousness field and in deep meditation we seem to become aware (attuned) to the information that is there. It's all good

"Out beyond ideas of wrong doing and right doing, there is a field; I'll meet you there." Rumi

Love,
Ramai

Try not to look too deeply in to these phenomena, some like you have varied and vivid episodes, while others have very little.



I feel quite detached from it so am able to observe it
And this is all that is required


As Ramai rightly points out, - it’s all good.


I have lived on the lip of insanity, wanting to know reasons, knocking on a door. It opens. I’ve been knocking from the inside.
– Rumi


Peace
