Astral Aromas

[Jitendra Hydonus]

Sometimes I will be meditating and smell the subtle aroma of flowers, although I may be on the beach where no flowers are around. Or for instance all last nite and this morning I have smelled the aroma of chocolate chip cookies 🍪 off and on, although none have been cooked, there are none in the house and since it is cold outside no windows are open where the fragrance could come in from the neighborhood.I consider these to be astral aromas. Because when I attempt to smell the aroma again I am unable to until I am not thinking about it and it comes to my awareness again, seemingly out of nowhere.

I had another one of those experiences today. I was laying on the couch talking with someone. Got up and meditated short time and then came back and layed in the same position, but this time smelled a wonderful fragrance that had no visible origin. I wonder if it was because the person I was talking to would be important to me? I’ll wait and see.
