#parallel dimensions

One day I was at my granny's house,bored, and I saw this portrait of a deity on the wall. Although I am not religious now, as a child i believed in the existence of angels and deities.(They may exist but I believe in collective universal consciousness now.)

I started reciting my school prayer in front of this portrait, leaning my forehead on the forehead of the deity. I did it with utmost sincerity and my eyes were closed. I finished the full prayer and didn't expect anything but when I opened my eyes, I saw the portrait and it blinked its eyes and made an expression of approval. To my surprise, shock and horror, I ran away and told my granny about it. I was so scared I didn't see it all day after that. My granny said that pure-hearted children experience these things and my uncle said it could have been anything, a spirit, a ghost or the deity himself who knows.

My adult self has understood that this incident didn't happen in the third dimension of form and solidity. What I feel happened was, the prayer activated my third eye since I was leaning on my forehead and I was always a bit clairvoyant anyway and I saw this miracle happen to me from my inner vision. It could have been anyone, even my own spirit guide but I feel it was my own manifestation nevertheless. I manifested that reality for me and wanted my child self to know that there is more beyond the veil. Reality is not what it seems.
