This is about worshipping some Hindu Gods. I am a practicing Hindu. One common Hindu practice is to meditate on a particular deity by chanting the "mantra" specific to that deity a certain number of times, say 36, 64 or 108.
I am noticing that repeated, uncontrollable yawning happens only while I am worshipping some specific deities. And all these deities have something in common - they all have a less than gentle disposition. Yawning (and coughing, sneezing and belching) during worshipping makes the worshipper impure, so a purification gesture has to be made each time. So you can imagine this would be a more than a little irritating if I keep yawning every 2 minutes. This never happens with "gentler" deities. I have observed this multiple times. I am not observing any other adverse effects either.
Have you seen something like this in the occult practices you have worked with?
