Subject: [K-list] Another poll, Samadhi
From: Druout

Dear List,

It's been a fascinating discussion and difficult to synthesize.
Since all but 2 people responded also to the list, I'll simply
briefly list a few words from each and end with a couple of
comments.

22 people either answered the poll or made comments on the subject.

21 people either answered yes, or I assumed a yes answer given comments made.
1 person answered no.

*********************

The descriptions:

1. Everything you know is wrong! All of the assumptions about
...one's view of the world are proven untrue or true in an
incredibly profound self affirming ego denying way. Take the
world, as you know it...turn it all upside down...but find out
that you are standing on your head!
2. It was like a section through the body, as opposed to say out
of the body, and my sense of awareness or consciousness was with
another me inside my body...There was no sense of me... no
judgments there or opinions... no love no hate...just a feeling
of total serenity
3. Beyond words and the mind. The only memory I have is that on
'coming down', there is a feeling of Bliss..and there is a
residual memory.
4. knocked on a door that opened, and went into the Light, with
the classic K. experience of vibrations and dazzling light and
angelic presences.. a trip to Heaven.
5. Even though some have been very blissful, they have certainly
[also] been something else
6. a state of primordial/source consciousness in which all
creation was experienced as illusion/maya/nothingness. I once
tapped into the consciousness of an ant colony, again totally
unexpected. What a rush: a sheer liquid-symphony of energy.
7. something filled me...I was in the hands of god and I KNEW it.
8. I experience entering of the Holy Spirit!.
9. Nothing, nothing at all.
10. Sensation of expansion and space... This expansion can be
accompanied by an ecstatic sense of immortality, freedom and
power. I started to merge into the landscape. "I" am
consciousness. the sense of vast "I"-ness.
11. They were very intense, and at the very beginning of k
onset...you have this rush up the spine, you go into ecstasy,
merge with god or cosmic consciousness, you become spiritual
overnight and your entire life changes from that point onward
12. Of course! It is only Me! This is the experience of
Nirvikalpa in words.
13. It is a wonderful feeling of bliss that I feel all through
my mental and physical body, I love everything because everything
is one with love.
14. That quiet place inside bliss.
15. merged completely with what I can only describe as myself.
Not the Self but the self. The relief and joy upon merging was
immense, but at the same time it felt amazingly familiar
16. from what i've gleaned from the various attempts to
describe/define this state, yes, I enter into this state.
17. A spiritual awakening
18. Samadhi is simplicity. Pure Grace
19. Only know is that I am wake up. I know something and what I
am experience is very strange for ordinary mind...There is no
love and anger or hate.
20. It doesn't fit into the big picture of things, since it *is*
the big picture of things. You can think of seeing everything
(time,space,other dimensions) simultaneously... One will *know*
when one reaches it.
21. it is a state of beingness in which all of the past and
future return to the illusion from whence it came. it is the
eternal now.
