Trippy meditation

I could put it in a green text now when I think about it

ye its common knowledge. you dont even have to do it in front of a mirror to get all them effects.
theres even a name for it in the occult literature but i dont remember what it was.

also thats p low level. try to overcharge your 3rd eye with whatever meditation key is the most easy for you to see some real spooky stuff

Is it just fancy optic illusions or is there more to it?

>>17909875
kek; isn't everything just a fancy optical illusion?

yea i think theres more to it. you can find all sorts of stuff that relates to this in the occult/spiritual literature. bottom line; explore it yourself for dem astral gains

tried meditation for a while, and lately, have been doing candle meditation. things which i've experienced sound much alike to your post, OP.
for instance, after a while, everything except the candlelight is seen, while everything else fades, unless you position your eyes to not look at the flame.
this is because your eyes keep on monitoring the same image. the brain adjusts to the constant image information by ignoring every part of your vision that doesn't get a new image to process.
it's perfectly normal.
it's pretty relaxing, as it gets you into a semi-trance pretty quickly.

ever tried the exact same thing but with your eyes closed?

>>17909983
i have, but it doesn't really have the same feeling to it. then it just becomes (for me) a breathing-oriented meditation . i do, however, sometimes close my eyes later in the meditation after i get into it to rest my eyes, which is a pretty incredible experience in itself.

if you arent able to see things with your eyes closed your doing it wrong

I can see like two dozens of colorful dots on a background of very dark noise
is that enough?

What you did isn't meditation. But it's still an interesting experience. In the end, there really isn't an objective reality, but rather one that depends entirely on our own perceptions, sometimes leading to brain fuckery like you just did.

how is it not meditation? I was trying to stay focused and aware of the moment the whole time

I'm going to move to my own place in a short time, and I've always wanted to try these kind of stuff. The problem was that I couldn't relax because there was always someone there or somebody talking in my family.

What's the best meditation technique you could recommend me? Which one's your favourite and why?

do the one I did in the op
I got the idea off this bald guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cub6kY0oHZc&index=3&list=PLjB-LnlL2pRW-KDHIfhoIZPeO3N01gqCD
in short you sit completely motionless
