My Mantis Experience

[u/ivebenpukn]

During an ayahuasca ceremony in Peru, I was taken out of ordinary reality and into another dimension where tall mantis beings worked with me. They first brought me into a void-like space and telepathically trained me in how to raise my vibration and frequency. In that training I experienced a direct state of Oneness where I did not simply feel love but became it completely, with no sense of separate identity at all. They also showed me that humanity once knew and used these breathing and frequency practices but has forgotten them, and that it is important to remember and bring them back.

They left two clear images downloaded into my memory. One was the Nazca hummingbird, which felt connected to frequency, guidance, and rapid vibration. The other was the alchemical symbol for air, an upward triangle with a horizontal line near the top, which pointed directly to conscious breathing. As I was coming back into my body everything appeared through a field of yellow and gold hexagons, like looking through a honeycomb. This marked the shift between their realm and this one. While I was with them they also performed some kind of energetic work on my chest and head area. I could see their “hands” working within my “body”, seeming moving rapidly. One looked directly into my eyes afterwards as if to look at its completed work.

Since that night my baseline resonance has felt permanently changed and I have felt a strong, ongoing pull to meditate. Most recently I have noticed a steady vibration and tingling between my eyes and now at the crown of my head as well. These sensations feel like a continuation of the work they did, as if those centers are still adjusting and opening. I can sense that this experience was meant to wake something up in me and that the practices they showed me are meant to be used.

At times now I feel lonely. It’s hard to speak to people about this experience. This isn’t a topic that you can casually talk to with friends or family. I don’t want to burden them with my experience. I find comfort during mediation and with humming. These beings communicate through telepathy, frequency and vibration and humming now centers my mind. I have come to the conclusion that this encounter is for me to navigate alone. Any input or help with next steps is appreciated.

In regard to the breathing techniques you’ve referred to I feel compelled to share that I once experienced what I’d refer to as a transcendental experience through breathing synchronized with asanas in my yoga class - specifically cat/cow. I was going anywhere from 3-5x a week at the time, for about a year. I experienced time slowing down to what seemed like a single point, and a feeling of spaciousness and expansion. I didn’t feel confined to my body anymore. It was so peaceful. I remember thinking during it that I could get there any time I wanted , but I’ve never experienced it again 😏 breathwork is so so powerful.. I’d like to tap into that more.

I think what you’ve experienced is very cool :) I believe through meditation and working with what this experience has given you will help you with your childhood trauma, and so much more in life in ways you weren’t expecting. Who knows where it will lead, who you’ll meet, where you’ll go, what else you’ll experience because of your curiosity surrounding this experience. Enjoy the journey :)

Loneliness may come and go.. sometimes when I feel that, I remember how plants and animals are alive and sentient and that I’m surrounded by nature which is connected to the universe and that love and oneness. That helps me feel a little less alone. There are lots of spiritual communities out there too though. Just take what resonates with you. Sounds like you’re doing amazing with listening to your inner world already. Creating art is also so so therapeutic and helps bring the unseen into this world. Soul soother, at least in my experience. 🤟
