* * Utterly impossible to describe, as description is already filtering us through intellect and duality, but it feels something like Nothing in particular, being simply a contentment or fullness in which states of consciousness are not our primary descriptors; they don't contain us; we contain them. That is, it simply IS (or We ARE) the Understanding that being absolutely nothing we contain everything, and the IS provides an arena to create the experience of whatever state(s) of consciousness might be needed by particular particle(s) predominant in our body, and which we provide by attending or not-attending in the requisite degree to the particular particle(s). > I was recently into about the fourth hour of a six hour flight - it was one > of those where it was too warm, packed, at night, turbulence, guy putting his > bare feet on the seat back next to me, just not a lot of fun.

It can be a bit like a standing wave of Self risen up in a column of separation from all the rest of us. One way out of this has been simply to realize what is up, and to relax back into appreciating the surroundings as also-us; this always allows the wave to dissolve back into the ocean. If we feel like a CC-column, the surroundings are generally presenting us with a quality which we are shrinking back from allowing to be perfect. We have withheld our Being from something "outside" of us because of a subtle or not-so-subtle story that it somehow is not perfect too. Or, we can do particle-work on the being in Us which needs some form of our Love, and which we have been unconsciously withholding... which is pretty much the same technique as the first one, only stated slightly differently :-)
