Has anyone here had or known a child, who had visions of things that were of Hinduism, without being exposed to it prior?

I ask this question, because I came across a user on Reddit, and she has been claiming for years, that she sees all sorts of weird stuff, like UFOS, Paranormal activity, and has deja vu. Another thing she claimed, is that her daughter, starting at the age of four, was taken by a spirit named Ena by astral projection, and was shown all sorts of things from Christianity, including Jesus' crucifixion, the rapture, and biblically accurate angels. She was never exposed to religion prior, so there's no way she could've known all of this, especially at the age of four.

The family was atheist, but later converted to Christianity after their daughter's experiences.

I'm honestly scared of the Christian God and how he throws people into Hell for eternity if they don't follow his rules, or step out of line.

So my question is, have you had or met a child who had this kind of experience, but with Hinduism, without being exposed to it prior? Have they had visions and told you stories about Hinduism, or any of its deities, that they otherwise had no way of knowing, and was later confirmed?

I would love to hear of a Hindu version of this.

For example, here's one of her claims. She has many, but I'll leave this one here. I can provide more if you wish.


"When my daughter was little, she had an imaginary friend that “took” her to see past, present and future events. The 1st event she witnessed that she told us about was seeing Jesus crucified at the age of 4. She told me she was there and saw it, described it to me in detail and then told me that her brain sometimes leave her body and she visits different places with Ena. One night when she was about 5-6 years old I was picking up my husband from his job. She was in the back seat and it was pitch black outside. She’s staring up into the night sky. I asked her what she was looking at and she told me she could see Ena (her imaginary friend) fighting the bad guys. I asked her what the bad guys looked like and she described them as having gray skin and big black eyes. She also described how Ena was fighting them, by shooting light at them. She had never been exposed to anything alien related. Once she really started describing what she saw, we really made sure she wasn’t exposed to anything religious."

You should very be careful on who you listen to with religious beliefs cause if you take on everything in board what people say you could end up in a mental home. That's my first answer
Also I know if you do meditation after awhile if you were in a dark place in your life , meditation can bring you to lovely image in your mind if you practice it all the time ( like mountains , flowers , streams , ocean ) in your mind . That's my second answer.
And also try no go too deep into religious beliefs , the spirit , cause also if you go deep into it , it's actually harder too get out of it when your in it when you want too get out of it cause the mind be constantly saying that your right (in pain ) when you could be wrong . That's my third answer .

First, I will address your question - in India, (where I live too), the mysticism and superstitions has been believed, misused and exploited for money, power or sex.
So, there had been numerous persons of very tender age who has declared (or their parents declared) paranormal experience or divine possession etc.
I once visited a little boy who claimed to be a part of a god and people were worshipping that boy. I got talking, and brought the conversation to the fighting powers of that deity and kid was posturing like the god in fight mode, like pictures he has seen. Then I let out a small mouse, a made to scale & nicely made up toy mouse, which runs on small invisible wheels & let it loose on the floor. Kid screamed, and jumped up on to the bed and was shouting "help, help, save me, it will bite me" ! He admitted he was not any special. People were giving us very disgusted looks, because we have robbed then of an illusion, they were quite happy to be fooled.

what does eternity really mean? i mean, all we really have is the present moment so maybe thats what eternity is. like instant karma except with your thoughts or being. i mean, everyones had times when they felt like they were in heaven or hell right? and who knows where our spirits are at any given time. i dont believe in hell in the common sense. there's so many versions of hell. id think it's more like the greco roman version of an underworld plus theres reincarnation to think about too. just because some child had visions of Christian concepts doesnt mean that is all there is. HInduism kind of encompasses everything really. it doesnt discredit christianity nor does true christianity discredit hinduism.

@jehova I would love to hear about them, if you don't mind. I know you said that you don't remember a lot, but I'd be interested in hearing what you can recall.

@Hellokitty212 its been a long time and i was revealed as having a brain tumor 3 years ago ish. . But in the adirondacks i recall a mist or fog that seemed to conceal a figure just off the shore on the lake, in basin bay. . That figure seemed to glow blue had several extra pairs of arm. Idk it appeared to be levitating in the woods near were we have a cabin. Also while camping on an island in lake george on great duck island. I recall a stag kneeling at a tree with light bark sounds familiar. I had no knosledge of Hinduism at the time. And i have nearly none now. So.
I keep thinking of what Thomas Paine said - "Is it more likely that nature should deviate from its course, or a man tells a lie?"

I don't buy any of these stories. Test it under rigorous laboratory conditions and publish it in a peer-reviewed academic journal and I'll take it seriously.

Why don't we have a chat about the Christian God and why you are afraid of Him when He has said He wants to be your friend.

In Hinduism, lot of importance has given to consciousness. Even in many hindu scriptures, ideology of God is related to consciousness. One of the verse says "Prajnanam Brahma" which is a mahavakya (great saying) from the Aitareya Upanishad, which translates to "Consciousness is the Ultimate reality".
Whatever you perceive, perceive it as consciousness because it's what making life meaningful.

Interesting.
The only ones that go to hell are evil people. No love or compassion in their heart.
Just be a good person.
No idea who Ena is. Some alien Grays are not friendly, and have bad intentions.

I don't believe such nonsense. Sounds like schizophrenia.
