Déjà vu: Explained

Déjà vu is a feeling of having experienced something in the past in spite of the experience being a new one. Some attribute it to disorders in brain while some link it with past life. 

On seeing something you had never seen before, have you felt to have seen it? Have you sensed of knowing something that is yet to happen? It was Déjà vu. What is Déjà vu? Déjà vu is the phenomenon wherein one feels sure to have experienced a new situation previously. While facing an entirely new situation, one feels a familiarity with something experienced in the past. One feels to have been through the same thing in recent past or to have seen it in a dream. Most of those who get the Déjà vu feeling claim to have seen something in their dreams or are pretty sure to have seen it some time ago.

Interestingly, it may so happen that one of the human eyes perceives a certain thing before the other. One eye records the incident earlier. The other eye, which records the same incident milliseconds later, makes the brain get a feeling of recollection. One eye perceives something and the brain interprets it. The other eye that lags in time by a few milliseconds perceives the same thing and sends the image to the brain. As the brain perceives the same thing milliseconds later, the person senses it as having seen it before. This idea cannot be an exact reason behind Déjà vu, as people with only one eye, also claim to be experiencing Déjà vu.

Not everyone believes that everything has a science to it! Some theories attribute Deja vu to certain psychic abilities that some human beings possess while others say that Deja vu feelings are a result of past life experiences, However I say that Déjà vu is actually a glitch in the matrix. Indeed, Deja vu has something to do with the so called ‘world’ that we live in!
