“I understood suddenly how thought was just an illusionary thing; and how thought is responsible for, if not all, of the suffering we experience. And then I suddenly felt like I was looking at these thoughts from another perspective. And I wondered, who is it that’s aware that I’m thinking?
And suddenly, I was thrown into this expansive, amazing feeling of freedom from myself, from my problems. I saw that i was bigger, and what I do is bigger than my body. I was everything, and everyone.”
