Mauve crystal structure?

[sono]

While I was meditating last night I had a clear but short "vision" of a gigantic, beautiful- beyond- description "structure" above me - it was filled with a sort of shimmering mauve light, & seemed to consist of miles-long, thin "crystals" that criss-crossed to create some sort of "structure". It was the most beautiful thing I have ever "seen" & wonder whether it exists objectively, & what is could be? I was so overawed that I could not "look" at it for long (my eyes were closed, & it seemed to be up above my head somewhere) There was also an incredibly high pitched sound in my right ear at the time. . . & a shiver passed from my heels to the top of my head. Any comments would be appreciated!

Namaste

the shiver could have been close spirit contact, which could in some way explain what you saw. sounds like a really cool experience... its great when you get glimpses of the higher reality like that, i say keep meditating and maybee next time dont be afraid and try to explore it further if it happens again.

could be related...

Thanks, Boris, for your reply! There is some small similarity to the mauve, animated picture of the Merkaba, but not it's not quite what I saw. I will definitely try to see more if I get the chance!

It sounds like the Net of Indra to me .

Thanks so much. Aunt Claire - what is the Net of Indra exactly, & how does one access it?

I believe it is the name for the jeweled diamond shaped net around all organisms and around our planet . It is not the ley lines or the grid but a subtle energy not as coarse or structured or rigid . It sways and undulates . ALex Gray has made a painting which demonstrates it .

Also google images of the Net of Indra or Indra's Net .

I tried searching for a thread here on AD but could not find it . I will look again later through an author search .

Thank you so much for taking such a lot of trouble to reply so comprehensively!

Namaste!

Your description of this structure sounds a lot with the structures I saw on my last projection (Oct 15 in my OBE journal -titled 'projecting with kitty'. Check it out and see if it sounds familiar.

I agree that sounds like the same thing . Here is a link ;

In Hinduism and Buddhism in the heaven of Indra, there is a vast net or web of silken strands which spans across space infinitely in every direction. Every intersection hosts a shining luminous pearl. The surface of every pearl completely reflects every other, and the net as a whole. Likewise, each reflected pearl in itself reflects every other , with the process continuing ad infinitum. Indra's Net is alternatively known as "Indra's Pearls," or the "Jewel Net of Indra".

It is said that the pearls themselves represent the souls of animated life. Within each such pearl, there is a virtually infinite universe of images - experiences, since all souls are connected. The whole network is illuminated by a single light source, metaphorically "The First Cause"ioannis.virtualcomposer2000.com/optics/indra.html

Inspiration came easily, often out of nowhere. I designed a new jewel as I went along, one that I named after the Net of Indra, in which, like jewels on intertwining nets, everything in the universes reflects everything else.http://www.bbbudart.com/doors.htm

Even that last picture reminds me of the projection. The triangular shapes in the center of the 'pearls' remind me of the shapes I saw, but in 3-D, see-through (somewhat) and even the colors are similar. Wow!

The 'fusionanomaly' figures look like the ones I saw on the previous projection, but a bit more 'planar' and arranged differently.
I'm glad to see my experiences confirmed by others'. It makes me feel much better.
