I think I figured out what was going on with Monsieur Descartes
Le dixième de Novembre 1619, ayant l’esprit tout échauffé de l’enthousiasme, et ayant découvert les fondements d’une science admirable, il eut en une nuit trois songes consécutifs.
On the tenth of November 1619, his mind all heated with enthusiasm, and having discovered the foundations of an admirable science, he had three consecutive dreams in one night.
Yeah, I know these methods well, can give detailed instruction, already have..it's pretty standard stuff. I think he was in physical discomfort also. It's painful doing this research, but it's written somewhere, think it was wiki.
But whatever, nobody is confused about the twilight state between being awake and sleeping, everyone knows dreams, nobody is going to confuse those vision. There are other things you need to do also

That is the after effects of doing these practices. It doesn't go away, you get used to it and then you stop paying attention to it. It's not just senses it works with, you can use math , you can see the world as math and geometry.
I had a pretty intense period with just that during the 90's when I was writing drawing and animation software. Spent a couple of weeks waking around in a daze seeing every thing as math and coding.
These folk got it all wrong, people come out of these states with actual marks on their bodies sometimes and the pain lasts a while...feeling, seeing 'real as dirt' stuff, it's what happens. You need to go at it from the perspective that he was in full position of his faculties when this happened, he might have had a little bit of OCD and related symptoms. It's not like taking drugs at all and I guess it's incomprehensible unless you go through it yourself.
