DejaVu - Have you ever felt it ?

DejaVu - What is it ? A belief ? Or is there some Science into it ? Is it just a psychological feeling or does it really happen in real life ?

Click "READ MORE" to read the entire post ...


The word itself Deja Vu in French means "already seen" ...
Do you get such a feeling that a particular event which is happening to you right now at this very moment has already occurred in past, and if you can feel that, then how much can you control that fraction of a moment ?
Can you control it the way you want to ? Or does it just pass away in a blink of an eye ?

Have you ever found yourself in such a DejaVu kind of a situation, and you just have this weird sense as if you have already experienced this event, before, sometime, somehow, and you almost, just almost know what had happened before, and what just happened, and to an extent you might even know what is coming next, but as soon as you think about the future event, or even about the next second, whoosh .. the moment just vaporizes in thin air ....

There could be any such event in your daily normal life, while driving a car, cooking food, talking to friends, watching a movie, playing any sports, or even best of all you could be reading this blog, and someone from you have this Deja Vu feeling that this post has already been written before, word to word, and you remember yourself reading to this post, and as these words are being written, you are just about to decide on commenting on my post, agreeing to the fact that you are also one of those 70 % population, experiencing this weird feeling of "already experiencing and living this moment sometime before" .... But then you think about this and about what your next step was, trying to recollect that past "already lived" moment, and you find that this feeling just disappeared, just completely blank, you move on and still comment on my blog post ... lol ...

Yup, you just had a dosage of what the researchers all over the world have not yet been able to conclude upon, and just have this theory that, Deja Vu is really prominent amongst most of us ... Its just that different people have different control over this series of events ... But nevertheless it does gives one a spooky feeling, a weird sense of understanding unless he or she knows, that there are millions of people out there who share this same kind of feeling ...

There is also a movie based on this phenomenon which has been released with the same name "Deja Vu", starring one of my favorite actor Denzel Washington, and the director and the entire movie production people have done a great job, in trying to recreate and depict this series of events ... Its a must see for people who are still new to this feeling of having "already seen", or "already lived" some moments twice ...

So do you ? Do you have this unique talent i would say of living some moments of your life "twice" ? Do you have this gift ? Have you experienced any such thing ?
Do you have some experience of a feeling, that comes over us occasionally, of what we are saying and doing having been said and done before, in a remote time ?
Various notions which go along this feeling are,
"already seen", "already felt", "already said", "already experienced", "already visited" etc ...

But the question is can you answer and define clearly what exactly this state of event could be termed as ? - A disorder, a Re-incarnation effect, Some kind of science, or at the end simply put - Just one of the world known superstitious beliefs ?

Whatever be the answer, believe me you need to feel it, experience it, done it, in order to understand what exactly it is ... I have been going through this kind of phenomenon since I was in the 9th grade ... But till now I had never paid attention to it, until recently when I underwent this same event, with the only difference, I was able to control it to some extent ... But just recently the events changed ...

I was just sitting, with my friends, in my apartment, chatting with them, and I just suddenly got this feeling, that I have been in exactly this same kind of a situation before, discussing this same topic, this exact same surrounding, the way people were sitting around me, the way the TV was showing some useless advertisement, - everything was just so perfect like as if I was living the exact same 10-15 seconds AGAIN in my life ... But just as soon as I felt this, I said in my mind, OK, now my phone is going to ring and it should be "xyz" - And guess what, IT RANG !! and above all it was that same person whose name I just said !!!

Phew ! Spooky ? Weird ? I know these could be the adjectives one could tell me - but the fact remains, I just did not stop thinking what is coming next, and when I DID think about it, it happened ... Could be a co-incidence ? Am I trying to find an answer to this ? Why ? How ? Am I trying to make up and convince my mind of something - No way.. I dont think so and that's why I am not gonna pursue this thought any more of trying to find out what exactly is going on as I know its just not ME along, but 100s of people out there experiencing this same feeling ...

No way, this feeling is just something different, and I dont want to find any answer to it - lol ... let it just the way it is ...

Feel free to write and share your experiences of Deja Vu ... We might just find a connection somewhere ...

Cheers

hmmm..interesting experience...

i have never felt this kinda feeling...honestly..i am too lazy to observe such things in first shot!!!

there are times when i feel that such a situation has occurred before (in my head-lolz) but i am never too sure that its deja vu or something else...

i first learnt about deja vu when i was in DDIT and some one had made a presentation on the same topic in elocution competition...since then i have been marking such occurences...but nt something as significant as yours...

there are instances when u know the other person would say a certain thing at a certain time...but that might also be from past experiences with that person...

all in all, i m nt quite sure this happens for me!!

on a lighter note, u becoming one of a kind PSYCHIC!!!

Yeah dude .. Everybody has got their moments of Deja Vu in their life time but yours one was a bit scary ..

By the way, as fas as my opinion is concerned, we get Deja Vu and that tells a truth that everything in our life is actually planned .. Our life is set of events which are orgnized sequentially .. One after another , it will lift the curtains and we can see what is happening .. Our acts or our thoughts dont change our lives .. Actually it's the already defined events which make us act that way or think that way .. So in short, everything is planned .. There r no co-incidences ..
