Retina flashlight experience

Today when I wake up and turn my body lying on my belly a retina flashlight phenomenon appears on both eyes. With closed eyes in a dark sleeping area I see 2 striped wires of very strong cold white light.

After a while when I get up, take breakfast it disappeared.

I have to travel today. So I get to the train station in Switzerland by cab. On this drive another flashlight phenomenon appears in my left eye (some geometric pattern of strong white light), it remains no matter of fact if I close or open the eyes. My logical mind is knowing that this could be a retinal problem and emergency case.

Immediately my mind is going back, observing.

Then at the station before the train is coming I sit down and practice - like teacher Lu is guiding the „open heart practice“ here on Skool. I just want to relax my nervous system, muscles, bring the Qi down, harmonise all systems. I just trust. I don’t focus on the eye problem. No fear, no worry- only surrender.

After around 10 minutes I stop to take the train. And the retina phenomenon is disappeared.

When I had this eye problem some years ago, I was full of fear and worry, went to the emergency department of the ophthalmological clinic. They told me that they couldn’t find anything, but I should have some examinations. I never did so.

Today I am very happy and grateful, that immediately, when something happens, I disconnect from the symptoms or phenomena and directly do the most effective I can do: go deep inside and relax, let the qi do his work, let it flow.

What is your experience in similar situations?
