CC in the TM context is by definition permanent, 24/7 witnessing, as I understand it, so it wouldn't make sense to say "CC is permanent once experienced," nor have I ever heard that said. Nor, however, have I ever heard anyone say *witnessing* was permanent once experienced. I've always understood "CC experiences" to mean witnessing experiences. It occurs to me that, as far as I'm aware, there isn't a term like "witnessing" associated with the other "higher states" in MMY's teaching, such that when the experience it refers to became permanent, that's God consciousness or Unity consciousness or Brahman consciousness; "witnessing" seems to be anomalous in that regard--perhaps because it's less complicated, or less complicated to describe. ------------------------ Yahoo!
