"When or where do you see the spiritual emerging from a non-spiritual experience."
To me, part of it anyway, it is when I see another struggling in misery in the darkness (completely immersed in ones ego). Then reaching a hand out to help shed some of that darkness. Another part is when I listen or watch, without attaching anything to what I am witnessing and just watch everything unfold and refold. It's a spiritual experience to watch the natural flow or movement of life. Unfortunately, I can not seem to "hold on to" such an experience for long, because I tend to let my attention follow my thoughts much more often than I would like. "A lack of ego(or really self).........cannot see an ego or self in anybody else or in anything else". I have noticed that by deeply listening or closely watching an another, I see or listen "beyond" (for lack of a better word) the Ego to a point to where I don't see the ego in another. I have to be completely immersed in what I am doing experience this. Again, I have a hard time maintaining that focus as I tend to get tangled in, and follow my own thoughts more often than I would like.
