Vaj, me, me I went through what you call a "violent digestion". I could have called the descent of consciousness as a violent possession or invasion, at least my body, mind and ego treated it as such. It started Apr 12 last year gently enough but got stronger and stronger till I was psychotic by May 21st - FFL was a mute defenseless victim of my psychosis :-) and then by May 25th I totally lost it. However what has arised from it is the most beautiful. However I'm not sure if everyone has to go through it.
