Share Your Experiences of Oneness

Category Enlightenment

This whole enlightenment thing may seem like some impossible achievement, this magical thing that just a few sages have experienced throughout all time. Maybe if we meditate all day every day our whole lives for several lifetimes, maybe we’ll become enlightened. Hopefully. If we’re lucky. If we do everything right.

I used to think this, that enlightenment was some special thing that most of us could never realistically hope to achieve.

What I’ve started seeing in this world, however, is that MANY people have had direct glimpses into their true nature. Perhaps the awakened state is more common than we realize, both the temporary glimpses as well as the more mature abiding states of awakening.

Experiencing the natural state, as it is often called, feels so familiar! It really is the natural state. It’s being who you truly are. It’s who you’ve been this whole time and who you’ll always be. There’s no escaping it because it’s always right here.

This is a magnificent time to be alive, a time of great spiritual awakening in human history.

In the comments to yesterday’s post on the experience of awakening, a number of you have shared your spiritual experiences and glimpses into your true nature.

Even though enlightenment itself is a solo sport, we’re all in this together, helping each other awaken, for we really and truly are all One.

Share with us your experiences of realizing Oneness, any glimpses into your true nature, various spiritual or kundalini experiences, and anything else that has shown you that you are not just a limited physical human being, but truly much more than meets the eye.

I was sitting in a pizza shop with my girlfriend of the time, and it started to feel like I was tripping, seemingly out of nowhere. When I looked at my girlfriend, it was literally like looking at myself. Like, that which I am is the same as that which you are. I wanted to be like, “Heeyy YOU…” as if it was like the biggest inside joke ever.

That was the most intense experience. Since then, there’s been a growing sense of unity, dis-identifying with the body, and the sense of Presence more and more.

I really love what Hawkins says about enlightenment. He says that the reason we’re drawn to it is because it is our karmic *destiny*, not just some pipe-dream. And considering how many people are drawn to it these days, that’s very exciting

Aww, I like this post!

Not often enough, but sometimes, when I’m sitting all alone and the tension of my problems at home or my studies aren’t upon me, it feels as if this sudden realization washes through me, as if I’m one step closer to knowing which direction I’m headed in. This usually happens in the spring or summer, evening-ish, while it’s raining (I love the rain). It feels great, truly.
