Hi Rory and Llundrub,
An illuminating post to be sure. Now I understand where the bliss comes from (concentrated Nature, so to speak). Also Rory I was struck when I read your [spiritual] autobiography how focused, dilligent and progressive you have always been on the task of finding out more and more about yourSelf. Or should I say, precise. At first I couldn't conceive a state of consciousness such as Brahman. However, I am clearer now that the process of evolving to any 'higher state of consciousness' is always the same: First we sense a lack (or an opportunity for growth), then we look for clues on how to satisfy that lack, then we proceed along on the treasure hunt, self-correcting as we go, then the goal appears in sight, and finally we identify so completely with the 'higher state of consciousness' that we sought, that we are experientially transformed, and live fully that 'higher state of consciousness'. The difficulty in describing such an event is that it typically takes a reflection backwards to realize what has been going on, and that the inner journey is just that, as opposed to an outer journey which can be commonly described in common language. Now I suspect that our ability to communicate with one another [about anything at all] is precisely because we are all at least in a hidden state of Brahman. How else could language and the tools to communicate evolve unless we were all One? Or at the very least, so similar as to make the differences between us a rounding error. It seems communication would be an impossible task otherwise. The strands connecting us begin to come into view. Feeling as I often do, dumber and wiser simultaneously, Jim --- In [email protected], "Rory Goff" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hiya, Llundrub!
