It's funny how I was posting about turiya last night. This morning I woke up before my mind did. I hit snooze on my alarm clock and rolled over and "my mind" went back to sleep but I remained awake. I was aware of the hum of my computer and the sound of the air conditioner running outside my window. But something like 90% of the thoughtstream, which usually zaps me awake, was absent. It was a hint of turiya and I have felt hints of the same bliss coming in waves all day.
I don't often like to share experiences but sometimes I think it is encouraging for others when we are sharing our own experiences. It is also not a competition.
Peace.
We will never find enlightenment if we can not appreciate the spiritual success of our friends. Enlightenment is not all about us but appreciating ourselves we see in others. Thanks for sharing it does inspire us! Being competitive only shows a mind trapped in time.... since all of us are really there but just do not seem to recognize it yet.
