Oh no, it's not tinnitus...
Certainly in my case there was never any "ringing" in the ear.
(Or "explosions", for that matter.)

I couldn't agree more...

epilepsy is just a name given to the whole blacking out and shaking of the body, ofcourse there is a chance that some things get thrown on the same heap while it is not really epilepsy but given that i get that static crackling sound in the head and the explanation of epilepsy being an 'electric storm' in the head it just made sense.

Although i have to say i thought that sleep paralysis was just a reaction of the body not waking up as fast as the psyche but while i never had a obe as of yet i did get my arm out while having it so maybe there is a more spiritual explanation for the head static as well. Everything is better than maybe having epilepsy

... and the seizure occurs just as the person is about to remember something - something that feels vitally important to them.
Did you know that?
(I know it only because I've been very interested in the phenomenon.)

I am mentioning this only because, in my opinion, it is a spiritually (or psychologically, if you prefer) induced condition. The physical symptoms may very well be a consequence, not the cause. But I digress...

Anyway, people who either suffer from epilepsy or simply want to put an end to these "electrical storms" may want to try a massage (the front and the temples, also the chest if the heart is affected) with appropriately diluted essential oil of Himalayan spikenard (Nardostachys jatamansi - it's important to remember the Latin name because there is another variety called "spikenard" which is totally unrelated to this one).

If anyone does so, I'd be very interested to hear their experiences.

No i did not know that, thanks for the info . life is getting weirder every day In a good way i mean.

Ha - I know exactly what you mean!


P.S. I forgot to mention that, as they are about to remember, they simultaneously see - or feel - this dazzling aura of total light... an then, they black out.

Interesting, eh...?

Oh God... I am so sorry.

It sounds like a tragic case of wrong diagnosis.
Or, to be more precise: the diagnosis was probably "correct" insofar they don't really know what causes those "bursts" in the ear.
They have no idea.

And yet, because it's in the ear, it has to be either "tinnitus" or "Meniere's disease" - which are all too often "treated" with drugs (cinnazirine and such) that do nothing to remove the cause but induce constant drowsiness and sleepiness. If I told you the cases I've seen...
But there's no need, considering your grandpa's tragic case.

Again, I am so sorry!
