How many times have you fainted?
If your answer is zero... this post will definitely be of some value to you. And those of you who have become unconscious atleast once in your life, let me know if it felt the same.
First of all, why am I describing this to you? So that you don't say "what the **** was that?" if you happen to faint in the future and ofcourse because I did faint.
It happened when I was down with Typhoid in my 11th standard. The good-for-nothing doctor didn't detect my illness as Typhoid. So, she prescribed antibiotics one after the other which lead to my losing most of my energy and resistence. I had constant high fever and had to pop in a paracetamol every now and then just to keep the temp. around 100F. Food tasted like medicine and medicine tasted like shit. Gradually, I found it difficult even to walk around.
Finally the day arrived when I had the least energy. I forced myself to stand up... coz i had to take a whiz (one of the two things I had to get up for!). Then, the little blood I had rushed down from my head or the heart just couldn't give the required pressure ... I don't know what happened .... but I just closed my eyes, barely noticing that my mother was running towards me....and.......
....... Blankness .......
I had no idea how long I was like that. Finally I opened my eyes and felt a little different. The difference was that I was standing when passed out and was laid down on the bed when I opened my eyes. By the way ... like in the movies, you won't get a blurry picture first and then a clear image of people around you. My vision was clear and in a way thrilling. Thrilling coz only then had I realized that I had been unconscious all this while.
My parents later told me that I had been in this state of unconsciousness for about 5 mins.
Now on... if you want to reach a state of complete blankness, don't meditate. Just faint!
