I Saw The Future!

So,
I tell this story from time to time, but i don't really make a big deal about it - it is a big deal to me because i saw the future in my mind and it was real and it was important.. So, that raises a lot of questions about human life and such.. Am i right?
Here is my story - i had been doing LSD again around 2000 - 2001, but the afternoon that this happened I was just sitting in my room smoking weed - it was a Saturday afternoon in September and I was listening to some music through my little computer speakers which I had carefully painted gold for no reason. I have schizophrenia and I sometimes observe things that aren't really there, but this afternoon I could sense messages coming together in a real way. I saw in front of me a map of the US and it indicated New York City. Then I had a flash of multiple times when I had seen an airplane in my mind's eye and I was suddenly aware that an angry force was moving against that location. I realized suddenly that there would be a terrorist attack in the form of a hijacked plane within days in NYC. I wondered to myself what the target would be – perhaps the twin towers – then I looked down at my two gold painted square speakers and I knew that I was sadly correct. That was the afternoon of 9/1/01.
I felt very strange the whole time like I was in a dream. Later on I wrote a little synthesizer piece to remind me of the incident. Hell and September I called it. I think I will finally release it on my seventh album. Interesting – that was almost exactly 10 years ago..


There is my story – I would love to hear any explanations.. I think that it could have either been unconscious precognition, or connection with other realms of existence perhaps?
 
i have had visions my self to see with out time often means a walk in the spirt world or dream state the hardest thing to understand is that to see the future means that it is already set in stone the all is mind the unvierse is mental
 
i have understood for some time that the past and future are set.. like a ball rolling down a hill - there is only one possible outcome..
 
For one the Universe is actually physical in reality,and the only certain thing within this Universe is change and uncertainty.What you had was a vivid premonition of things to come.Now how we perceive the Universe ,that part of it is purely mental without a doubt,and the same can be said about the past,present and future.No one really knows where time itself will end or if it will ever end or if time ever began in the first place,but it is totaly possible to have visions or intense daydreams that relay prominent information of things to come,we get this in dreams from sleeping as well.Interesting that you painted your speakers gold and they represented the towers in this vision though.
 
This thread is making me question the whole psychic thing.. This weekend I've learned a lot of shit, just about society and the human race in general. I think society has censored us to the point that we have forgotten about the mystical values that our brain has and produces. I totally believe you, just the way you explained that. Normally I'm completely against the paranormal, but I too have had similar experiences that are unexplainable. Just little things, like I used to have dreams about certain girls that I barely even knew, then the dream motivated me to talk to them and stop at nothing until they were mine. One time the actual situation I dreamed played out, and thats how it happened. I can't say something that crazy has ever happened to me, but by no means do I not believe you, especially because of you very interesting condition.. I find it fascinating.
 
Time has been known to play tricks on us. Are you sure in the midst of your acid trip you didn't lose your grip on what day it was? Maybe it was after the fact and you forgot at some point over the last decade.

Not trying to discredit your awesome story or anything. Just being a scientific skeptic.
 
“Interesting that you painted your speakers gold and they represented the towers in this vision though.”
yes, i remember painting them and thinking 'why am i doing this?' my answer from inside was that it would be 'significant' later on..



“Are you sure in the midst of your acid trip you didn't lose your grip on what day it was?”
Yes, I was not on acid that day – I had been taking regular strong trips, but that day I was just a little stoned. It was definitely 9.01.01 – I have computer files dated from my music. I wrote my song half thinking that nothing would happen and that I would look back and see how crazy I was for thinking all that.


“schizo and smoking weed, thats my answer”
I agree – I would never have listened so closely to voices and impressions of ideas if it were not for my issues. But, as it turned out it actually meant something...​

 
i often see my future or past through my dreams, one of 'em had me a father of 12 kids with 3 different babymamas i can't tell what i see are merely visions or possibilities. btw im borderline schitzo comes with my genetic make up.
 
i'm just telling because it is something very strange..
my motivation writing the song was that i knew something was going horribly wrong somewhere.. i thought that if i wrote it down in music that i would look back and make sense after it all went down..
again, i can't explain it.. as much as i can explain the voices that make me need my anti-psychotics every night..
 
The attack happened in the morning. If you saw the future that afternoon you were really seeing the past.
I bet your head just 'ploded
 
ya.. it's like the universe made it a comfortable thing for me and not so much devastatingly sad... or something?
