Certain times, not remembering the circumstances, I've had similar experiences. Not as big as your living 30,000 years, but personally profound for being such small thoughts.
I've had epiphanies(maybe 2 or 3 in the passed year) that seem so incredibly right, and it seemed like my viewpoint was different. Almost as if I'm in a "mode" of thinking from a different perspective. A perspective much more vast than my normal one. From what I remember they mainly happend during times when I was reflecting on myself, or in a deep state of thought.(I will add that they weren't huge epiphanies, like a cure for cancer, etc. They were just simple ones that, in that moment, was the most important thought in the world.)
I regret not writing them down, now, because I can't remember any of them. I do remember they were self-empowering, though. Similar to as you describe: euphoria, full of purpose/meaning, empowered.

I cant say ive had an experience like the one your discribing in the post... I daydream a lot and I think of "theories" all the time and also feel like I get cosmic-ish revelations or deep rooted human psychology revelations that pass by and I forget what they are (poetic mysteries/mythologies lol) but thats not quite the same as what your saying...
These three posts imho are events caused though Meditation..
These are common, repeatable & they can be really enlightening at the end of the day.. Their cause is known..
They aren't, however, random or unexplained..
Edited to add: Meditation in many cases is daydreaming.. Sometimes we meditate when we don't even intentionally know we are doing it... Contemplation, Day-dreaming, relaxing, reflecting on self, reminicing, these kind of thought streams can be medative.. I think.
