RE: ecoTrain Question of the week - What was one of the most profound spiritual moments of your life?

[bubke]

Hope you can handle the answer to your first question, she got pregnant from him and he got shot in a drugs deal.
Now for the 2nd question, did you ever hear about the Osho dynamic meditation? It's a sequence of rapid breathing, conscious catharsis, hammering your energy centers, silence and celebration. In the early Osho days, the conscious catharsis was a true catharsis, you could scream your heart out, the effect of this meditation is very strong. When I left for India, I went straight to the Osho ashram in Puna trying to get more glimpses doing this and a zillion other medidations but as I said in the post, experiencing 1 satori is contra-productive on the path because you long too much for it. I never had another glimps. Thanks for your beautiful comment @icmultitudes

Hi @bubke,
Glad to see you a re writing again. Such a story, I can relate to some of it.

I went out to the beach and sat down, a serene calmth came over me and everything felt different. Peaceful. My awareness was very high. My perception was crisp clear. I was experiencing a state as my ‘I’ was just a witness of something utterly beautiful, something I never perceived before. It is very difficult to describe but I was very aware I was in a state of enlightenment and didn’t want to get out of that state.

I had one of those moments once this year. It was very strong and its profound effects lasted me for about a week. I felt so light as if I was skipping on clouds. It felt so peaceful and safe. I felt that everything was in order as it should be and that I can trust and let go completely to this powerful euphoric and peaceful sensation.

Getting out of it was so unpleasant, like coming back from heaven to earth. I got severely depressed after that for a week as well, longing to have those feelings back again.

I was hesitant to ask the same question that @icmultitudes asked, but I am glad he did and you answered.

In a way, I was relieved to know that she didn't come back for good. I couldn't imagine her to be the woman you fell in love and have your beautiful children with. If she would be affected by some Caribbean magic so easily, then your togetherness magic was not very strong from her side.

Thank you for sharing your personal story with us.

Hug :D

Ha @theleapingkoala, sharing personal stories, that's what we do here eh :-) Thanks for your beautiful comment, nice to hear you had a similar experience. I was always very convinced that any relation can work and that is all a matter of looking into yourself. I always ended up with long relations for that reason. It was an old rastafarian on this Caribbean island who pointed me to the fact that my last 2 relations were with the same astrological type and advised me to change that. That's what i did and oh my God, was that a good choice :-) Much love, i am a bit less active lately, some work in the queue and family time also very imortant for me.

That is very interesting to hear. Changing the astrological type! Never thought of it, but I find it fascinating and a great news that it worked for you.

I have the same convictions about relationships, but I found it takes 2 with the same conviction to work it, otherwise it doesn't.

Happy to hear from you and hope things gets easier for you soon ;)

Big hug :D

Ahh, @bubke, nice of you to warn me about the answer. That is indeed very unpleasant. All in all I have had a very protected life so far :).

And no. No experience with meditation Osho or otherwise. At times I think I have stumbled upon meditation by accident, but it has never been a practice.

You are a treasure who keeps revealing more and more gold Bub, so glad to be on this train with you.
