I was in a room. As my friend spoke, I became aware that he was responding moment to moment with any questions, thoughts and feelings I was experiencing during the course of our, or rather, his conversation with me. I need not explain my reaction to this!! It came to the point that I knew him to be me and I him and I knew myself in a whole new way. What did I experience and why? Any one know maybe?

It has been said many times by spiritual teachers that on some deeper level we are all part of the One, and therefore that our feelings of being separated from one another are a necessary illusion for us to be able to learn certain lessons which we could not otherwise.

During your mystical experience the barriers of this illusion were temporarily down, and the truth was revealed to you in all it's simplicity but splendour.

This altered state of consciousness is usually only realised during periods of deep meditation or through the use of certain psychotropic drugs, but for some reason this time it happened to you while you were wide awake.

This experience is therefore something to be cherished and remembered for the rest of your life, as it is uncommon for this to happen more than once (although I am certainly not ruling out the possibility that it just might).

Greetings! I was hoping to hear from you and I am very happy with your reading. I have had this experience numerous times and even now still do. Thank You so much for taking the time to respond to me. I never knew what the sages were speaking about until mine eye was open. Blessing to you and I will speak with you again some time.  

You are very welcome for the explanation, rather than it being an actual reading.



Then you are and have been blessed many times over, as few people have had even a single experience of this during their entire lifetime.

Eye-I am blessed and like Paul of the Bible I believe I understand when he said because of the abundance of revelation a messenger of Satan came to buffet him, so that he would not get puffed in the Ego. Thanks
