Earlier today :-D Tis like seeing or being any aspect of the universe seen or unseen, known or unknown, present or past, from any dimension or focus. You can be a dewdrop forming before sunrise, an all seeing nebula, a million suns away or so many experiences for which we have no words to express. Let me take you there :-)

I usually stop to think and then forget to start again! (joke)
To answer you question seriously, it's a state of pure consciousness and bliss. I got lost there for a week one day. That is to say time is altered and what seems to be hours is actually minutes.
To put it another way what you find there it that your life is an illusion. You discover that you have created for yourself everything that you thought to be important and deserving of your attention. You realize you are living in a world of your own making. That you assigned an importance to matters that in the end have no importance at all, that you are threatened only by your own mistaken creations, and it all turns out to be nothing. It was just a non-reality. It never happened the way you thought it. Nothing unreal exists. Nothing real can be threatened. If it were real, it would have never been a threat to you. It was only given the meaning in which you have assigned it.
When you experience all of that you will have awakened from the dream of misconception to find the light of reality, the truth of your existence: a continued awareness of a presence that delivers you into your natural inheritance; an experience away from the illusion that you have created for yourself.

Oh for sure. I've been a high jumper and a long jumper. LIfe's too short to be too careful.
I've got a nice collection of scars (sometime you land on that nice big cushy pad and sometimes you miss alltogether) but then again I've experienced a lot more than the average person and there's more to come.
I agree 'sophist' could lighten up a bit - the world's had enough sophistry, but perhaps enough megalomania too...

it is more you than the solid you may ever know....it is the spirit you and its purpose is to MAKE KNOWN THE UNKNOWN in all your endeavors called life........it is always with you but when you live for the frivolity of the human drama all you get is the same old wheel of experiences....all you have to do is unlimited your thinking and live completely in the moment of NOW and you have made that leap...think about it before you dismiss it all of humanity is living in its past and there is nothing unknown about the past....who is willing to let their past go and live in the NOW.....it is called BLISSFUL

i decided to leave rational thinking behind once, decided to go for it, despite my nature of being careful & planned.... it was freeing... i rememebr it fondly today & wish i could find the courage to do it more often.

Never. The world is a hostile place and I never go unarmed.
