I had an amazing experience during the countdown @ avalon. For the entire year of 2008, I immersed myself in the teachings of Eckhart Tolle. During the countdown, I was in tune with the inner-energy field of my body. At the same time, I was the "Watcher" of thought as opposed to being identified with it. The last 20 seconds or so of 2008, ego completely dissolved and Awareness shined through. For many years, it was ego that obscured peace, love, and joy.. thus, all that beauty (which had no opposite) was on the forefront rather than backburner. I was One with everything that surrounded me. I knew with absolute conviction that nothing in this world of form matters as much as ego makes it out to be.
Of course, that experience wasn't a permanent state of mind. Ego came back the next day. But from now on, I welcome and allow ego/thought to be as it is. There's just one difference and it's a significant one.. I am not my ego. I am not my thoughts. I am the space/stillness/presence/awareness.. temporarily appearing as a form of Life.
Funny how all this happened @ Avalon out of all places. |
Another great NYE experience! I suggest you check out "The Untethered Soul" by Michael A. Singer. Sorta along the same lines as Eckhart Tolle, but taken a step further.
