What an interesting statement, that of Dark being faster than
light...that certainly rings true when evaluating the Dark Night
experience, but how then do we integrate such an experience? Perhaps
the Dark Night experience is that of having transcended space time
intuitively, recognizing that transcendence as Reality, yet still
hanging on to the now empty husk of false identity? Then after a
long time of trying to miserably reanimate the false identity of
concepts and stories, we give up, and gracefully, magically
integrate ourselves into the Dark, now recognizing how to function
again in space time, while being true to our Selves.
