Does exhibiting or not exhibiting particular subtle dualistic phenomena qualify as "experiencing It differently"? What I see as the defining core of awakening is a shift in identity from the limited I/me to pure Being, the conscious nature, or however you choose to describe that "I AM THATness". However, one can realize that shift in identity without being able to perform esoteric parlor tricks. Claiming that one is not awake unless he's witnessing 24/7 is absurd; it's like claiming that one is not awake unless he can make steam rise off ice-water soaked sheets wrapped around the body.
