The beginning of the journey inward, in search of Truth.
A late night startle
So off I am in my trance like state once again bordering sleep but just conscious enough to pay attention to the breath, when all of a sudden, I feel a blanket of darkness surround me, except it actually feels as though I am the entire thing, the darkness itself is part of what I am, and I cannot see anything but feel as though all of it is actually me.
Seemingly without my participation, there is an unrealistically loud explosion that takes place in my experience and when I say unrealistically loud, I mean so loud that it would wake the dead, “literally”.
I am totally terrified and get up in a cold sweat. I had been in Columbia in 2000 when a bomb had gone off two buildings away and the sound waves shattered glass on the building right next to me and not even that was as loud as this is.
I am terrified, but I know that I will still revisit this state/place, because I really want to know.
