During the past week a shift occured in my way of seeing. One second I was seeing the world as "normal" the next second a shift occured and everything became THAT.
All in existence was an expression of THAT felt as this living, loving Presence in and of all existence. The world still "looked" the same, but there was only one consciousness. For example, I looked at my wife, children and strangers I'd pass on the street and there was no I or thou, just THAT seeing THAT!
And this way of seeing has not faded, in fact it's breaking through stronger so I'm in that state longer then ordinary consciousness. I've tried to shake it but I have no control over it, It is who, what I am now.
Even these words fall far short of this experience.
My wife is home now so I'll be helping out in her recovery and won't be able to get to the forum everyday but when I have a few moments I'll be back.
Love and Peace to all of you.
Klaus

The universe is mysterious, and it can deliver some big surprises when we least expect it. As SomeNothing might say, "how perfectly so."
THAT is the only thing that ever sees THAT, but most of us never realize it. Klaus was never really Klaus; it only appeared that way. What Klaus IS is what is looking out of all of our eyes and always seeing the infinite radiance of Itself. What a blessing!

Hi Klaus. Why did you try to shake it do you think?

Hi frank.
I've had similar experiences, not exactly the same and they faded within a couple of days and were forgotton.
I guess I wanted to be sure this was the real thing. AS I said previously it's stronger, no identy with mind, body; no identy whatsoever any more.
Walking is just walking, talking just talking, feeling just feeling and so on.
I hope this answers you question.
Klaus

That answers my question thanks Klaus. I thought perhaps you were resisting it and if so I was interested to know why.

Yay! That's very exciting! Please keep us updated if you would. I would very much enjoy hearing how things progress. During the past week a shift occured in my way of seeing. One second I was seeing the world as "normal" the next second a shift occured and everything became THAT. All in existence was an expression of THAT felt as this living, loving Presence in and of all existence. The world still "looked" the same, but there was only one consciousness.

Hi lightmystic,
This is hard to describe but I'll give it a go.
THAT is my true nature and is ever present even in IT's expression of Klaus.
Having said that, physical, mental, emotional knots are beginning to unravel attachments are now seen very clearly as well as their cause which is desire.
I see how I create my own story and that's all it is a story (illusion). I see this in the people I see on the street also and I feel compassion knowing they're lost in their own stories and cannot see the TRUTH.
I also have to catch myself wanting that initial "enlightenment" experience again as if there were someone to experience it. ha,ha.
Well that's all I have time for now
Klaus

Only One shining through all space and time.
Above the entrance to a monastery in Japan are the following words written by a famous master: "More than ten-thousand mornings in the last thirty years. Haven't you realized by now that it's the same old fellow?"
D.T. Suzuki trained in a monastery for two years when he was a young man. Decades later he returned to visit the monastery as an old man. As he was walking up the path to the main hall, the big monastery bell rang out, and Suzuki instantly fell to the ground sobbing.
Unspeakable pathos. Infinite gratitude. Pure love.
Home is where Is is.

Haven't you realized by now that it's the same old fellow?" I love that quote! Even the personal sense of being clearly points to a single "entity" although we can observe many apparently autonomous beings. Can this be a pointer to oneness?

Very cool! Congratulations to _______!
This sure hopes to see that this is THAT soon.. (lol)
Does it complicate everyday life in any way? Like, it might be hard to adjust to?

Souley: It usually simplifies life. One acts with less reflection and more certainty, and there is little or no attachment to the outcome of events. Most complication occurs because reality is not accepted as it is. When a person realizes that he/she IS reality, apparent conflicts cease to cause disturbance. After discovering the truth and fundamentally seeing through the illusion of personal selfhood, there can still be deepening realization and Self-exploration, and how the process manifests through different body/minds can be different. There is no end to what can be discovered.

Hi souley,
You are already THAT.
Really listen to what zendancer and lightmystic are saying.
My life hasn't changed. I still do what I always do...think, feel, eat, walk, talk, laugh but there is no one doing these things. They are action/non-action without subject/ object.
Having said that there is a continous emptying or the untying of knots. Right now memories long forgotten with strong attachments are arising again only this time the memories remain without the strong attachments.
