This Lake Doesn’t Reflect Your Face—It Shows Your Fate
Vishal Singh Gaur | Tue, 10 Jun 2025
They say this lake doesn’t show your reflection—it shows your future. Deep in the misty hills lies a hidden lake surrounded by stories of prophecy, mystery, and transformation. From ancient tribes to modern scientists, everyone wants to know the truth: can water really show what’s yet to come? A haunting journey into one of India’s most mysterious places awaits.

And here’s why: They believe the lake has a spirit of its own.
Ancient Mentions in Forgotten Texts
In a lesser-known scripture titled Drishtiyog Samhita, a wandering yogi describes an "eye of the Earth" that reveals karmic imprints. Scholars brushed it off as metaphor—until reports began surfacing in the 1800s from British surveyors who described feeling “watched” by the water.
One entry in the 1882 Survey of India journal reads:
“We reached a pond of perfect stillness. As I gazed upon it, I saw not myself but a vision of a place unknown to me—a room, a boy, a woman crying. The image vanished, but something inside me remained changed forever.”
Why the Lake Shows the Future
Lake
Swami Teerth Maharaj, a monk who meditated near the lake for 12 years, explained it this way:
“The lake doesn’t show fate—it shows momentum. It’s like seeing the train track you’re currently on. You can always switch tracks. But you must see where you’re heading to understand where to go.”
According to him, the visions are not fixed prophecy, but karmic snapshots. If you change your choices, you change your outcome.
The Science: Electro-Magnetic Fields and Human Brainwaves
Electro-Magnetic Fields
- The region has anomalous magnetic fields.
- The rocks nearby are rich in crystalline quartz, known to store and conduct subtle energy.
- Water bodies in high-vibration zones are believed to affect alpha and theta brainwave states, the same waves active during meditation or lucid dreams.
“Within minutes of approaching the lake, most participants entered a semi-trance state. Their brains showed patterns normally seen in deep meditation—despite them being wide awake. It’s like something in the environment was ‘tuning’ them into a visionary state.”
Still, science stops short of explaining why specific visions seen by multiple people later come true.
More Real-Life Stories That Baffle Logic
A newlywed couple from Gujarat visited Drishtikund during their honeymoon. The woman, Anita, peered into the lake and saw the face of a baby girl she didn’t recognize. Five years later, she gave birth to a daughter. As the child grew, she looked exactly like the face Anita had seen.
“I didn’t even remember the vision until I saw my daughter smile,” she wrote in a blog post. “I froze. It was her.”
The Man Who Quit His Job
A corporate executive visited the lake while on a spiritual retreat. In the water, he saw himself living in a small village, smiling, surrounded by children. It made no sense at the time. Two years later, he quit his high-paying job, moved to Uttarakhand, and opened a free school for underprivileged children.
When asked why, he simply said, “Because I’d already seen it.”
The Dark Side: When Visions Terrify
Some visitors have reported seeing their own death, or the betrayal of loved ones, or the collapse of their careers. One man reportedly tried to harm himself after seeing a vision of losing his family. Thankfully, he was saved—but the trauma remained.
This is why the local monks warn against casual curiosity. The lake reveals without judgment. It doesn’t protect your emotions.
“You must ask not just if you want to know the future,” says Swami Teerth Maharaj, “but if you are ready to live with the knowing.”
How to Visit (If You Really Must)
Where: Confidential valley near Uttarakhand-Nepal border. Closest known village: Lohajung. From there, it's a half-day trek through forest trails.
Best Time to Visit:
- Full Moon Nights
- Solar and Lunar Eclipses
- Brahmamuhurta (3:00–5:00 AM)
- A clean copper vessel for offering water
- One personal item connected to your question (e.g., a photo, letter)
- A silent mind and an open heart
- Phones, cameras, drones
- Alcohol or meat
- Loud energy or doubt
Should You See the Lake?
You’re standing alone. The wind is silent. Mist curls above still water. You look down—and your reflection isn’t there. Instead, you see something you’ve never seen before. A moment that hasn’t yet happened. A truth about yourself, too raw to deny.
Would you be grateful? Or afraid?
The lake doesn’t judge. But it does reveal. What you do with that revelation is entirely your karma.
Last Words
And maybe—just maybe—that clarity waits in a still, forgotten lake that doesn’t reflect your face…
It shows your fate.
