Marek writes snipped: Also, I agree with you that when there is any experience of awakening, no matter how transitory, the hook would seem to have been set and the search for its permanency might begin in earnest. At least that's been many folks' experience, though Curtis at this point in time, seems to have come to a different conclusion regardless of how much he has enjoyed (or enjoys) what many would designate as 'spiritual' experiences or transient awakening.
Tom T: To paraphrase Jean Klein from "I AM". The awakening was (past tense) instantaneous, clarity takes place in space time. What made us seekers was that glimpse. 30+ years later clarity is dawning or has arrived. TomT
