Bill,
It's not like me to do so, but I urge caution, there.
Lots of things can displace our familiar self. Not all of it is laudable. For
some, the Holy Spirit might not be laudable. Especially if it was some
reasonable (to us) facsimile which had us believe it was "of-God", but not
exact facsimile. We could be deluded, in other words.
This is where a Zen teacher is needed, to test us. ;-)
She shall also have to test us about "this", the "Just This" you often mention.
We may be vastly deluded there, TOO. You never know, you know. Submit a
sample and be tested. ;-)
