I'd been chasing the 'one' experience for twenty years. It had changed my life and turned me from rebellious late teenager into spiritual seeker. I wanted to find that experience again, when it was all so easy. When I was swept away into the eternal.
And then, just a couple of months back, I sat on my sofa and looked out across the park. I love the sun. I love light. I let my eyes rest upon the brightness of the sky and it began to shift. The light moved towards me in particles, I could feel its motion, I could see its emanation.
The light entered into my eye and into my flesh and it was the same as me, just a different expression of me. It merged into my being. It was my body. I followed it further, deeper into my eye and mind until it hit - the One who was aware. Then there was stillness and I began to feel wetness stream from my eyes.
I was not that which I looked at. I was not that which I perceived. I was not that experience I so longed for. I was nothing. I was all things. I was life itself. I was tiny particles/cells of energy or conscious energy interacting with myself.
The question became 'How to live life from the awareness of Oneness'. How to embody transcendence?

I really like how you started this blog "I'd been chasing the 'one' experience for twenty years." It really caught my attention because it hit home - that's pretty much what I've been doing these past couple of years. I'm forever looking back at a particular awakening experience - love, acceptance, release! Thanks for your post and the reminder that the one moment is not found looking back. It takes you where you are, when your least expecting it.
:) Thanks Skeptic. The one moment is every moment. Trick is just to remember it.
