An interesting take on it. To me, everything had always appeared *outside* the bodymind, like someone in a car looking out at the passing scenery, before I realized the scenery -- the stars, the universes, all beings, past and future -- were in me. Then there was no need to leave the body in so-called subtler bodies to visit other timespaces and realms, as the other realms were already always available "inside/outside," with a moment's pinpoint of attention. Are we saying the same thing, from opposite angles? *L*L*L*
