Of course this took years of practice. But the payoff the stilling of the mind, going deep inside Self, like sticking my finger into the CHARGED SOCKET of the Big Brain Itself (ha! it’s that shocking at first, so electrifying!), this place beyond thought, that, even for a glimpse that may last only a few seconds, and eventually becomes longer in time and deeper in connection — all this amounts to cultivating a spiritual connected-ness. This, my friends, is Oneness consciousness.
