I'll try a short response to this - since this comment is one of my 
nputs -  -
 
I agree to a point - that realm of consciousness is a fantastic - and time 
does lose its meaning - but for me there is only so much of that I can take 
before wanting other experiences - one feels connected to it all and it is a 
good - but to me it is not the end goal - and other than provide a type of 
understanding - what else is there to it -
 
Time is fluid anyhow and one can be caught in terror and have time stand 
still or even being absorbed in thought and have time stand still -
 
My doubts and questions and pain are precious to me and it helps me to 
realize that I wouldn't like being stuck in a state where there were no 
questions, no doubts, no challenges, no growth - only "bliss".  This 
viewpoint is really quite standard I believe and not much of an 
understanding - but then I am not sure - some view reincarnation as a way to 
achieve transcendence (or 'god' like nature) so I suppose I question - 
transcend to what and for what reason - I think that I would rather be a 
crow, maybe even a frog or a cat too - and I would probably rather spend a 
lifetime as a slave building the pyramids then transcend to a state beyond 
time, memory, and the potential to doubt or question or perhaps even to 
feel - I might know all but then what - probably want to know less -
 
So that probably leads to >>we are exactly where we should be - ugh - still 
not happy about that -
 
Peace and balance (hopefully) 
Llewellyn
