Quote from jem:
That is a fair comment. I have only reviewed it. I have not really studied it.
Care to elaborate on the Godhead and how humans may find themselves in their highest state?
puh. that is too big a shoe for me. i am not there by far
but just from my little experience i can grant you that
the whole thing is definitely no hoax, no wishful thinking,
and actually has little to do with "belief". when you hear
that sound and it gets real loud you simply can't deny
it. and with your breath coming to rest you feel a
sensation on top your head or between the point between
the eyes and the top of your head. and you really feel
it. again, no wishful thinking. real feeling.
and along with these comes a feeling of rest, happiness,
awakefulness, however you want to call it. a small
thing that puts not a big grin but a little smile on
your face. and the whole thing can really build up from
day to day. and sometimes i experienced something
quite unique: the feeling that i am doing the exact
right thing in this very moment. not doing it too late
or too early or too little or too intense, just right. and
this feeling comes along with sensation of immense
power and trust. very, very amazing.
the highest state of yogic meditation is called nirvikalpa
samadhi and only few people ever reached it. this
state leaves the seeker without pulse and without
breath. the guru of my guru had reached this state.
he often entered nirvikalpa samadhi, sometimes
leaving a worrying little crowd behind, until he "came
back" quite many minutes later. though admittedly i
have not witnessed it myself. but among the people
it was well know fact for the medical doctors as well.
i just tell you this, because you asked about the highest
state. well, i guess that is it. experiencing complete
unity with god, the self, however you want to call it,
at will.
