I have/had an experience for a few months and on and off since, that left me baffled and I spoke directly to Maharishi about it on a coufse back in 1980. My experience was one in which while I was standing there talking to someone I experienced that they were separate from Being. The way I described it to Maharishi was, it was as if when I looked at another person I experienced that they were witnessing.
Maharishi told me that this was growing Unity consciousness. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "authfriend" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, TurquoiseB <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "authfriend" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, TurquoiseB <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > wrote: > > > <snip> > > > > The first is that I am > > > > *immensely* grateful that, unlike them, I have had my own > > > > experiences of enlightenment > > > > > > But apparently not the "There is no me-versus-them, > > > we-are-all one"-experience... > > > > Actually, even though it's being asked by the Judybot, > > I'll deal with this one. :-) > > > > That is correct.
