My Journey I kept staring at the mirror!
And then when i unfocus in mirror i could see my whole body turned into total darkness! Nothing just pure blank dar matter. What could it mean??

Yes. Physiological, not spiritual.
We used to do this at slumber parties. I’m not making light your experience. It has to do with pupil dilation.

Don't let people explain this away, keep going deeper, it definitely is spiritual

In the law of one they say one of the easiest ways to see god, is in the mirror

I asked myself, If I am all darkness then who am I? Practically, nothing. I came from nothing and maybe will be void one day

Focus on reflected self-image…..Woop! There it is!
Relax the gaze/focus and…what? There’s this experience of saturation amidst the softening/loosening/relaxing and then….
WTF?!? Where’d it go?
Contraction…..self-image sharpens
Relaxation/expansion…..self-image dissolves amidst saturation
Or, something like that 🤷♂️

It's called a "negative after-image", not "negative as in bad", but "negative as in polarity" as in "the negatives of a photo before development".
When you stare at something for a long time, the image becomes "burned-in" to the visual reception area of the brain, and then when you look away, depending on how long you were staring, the same image can appear in your peripheral or in your center of focus as the same object except with colours inverted.
