Question:
Hi Deepak, I was meditating today..and I experienced something wonderful..amazing…I got into a deep state of meditation…(that I don’t remember have gotten)…and I experienced happiness in its fullest form. I was complete..ethereal..HAPPY!!! I was full!! joy and bliss…sort of like ecstasy! I seemed like I was out of my body or that I wasn’t able to recognize it…It was powerful. I couldn’t switch my mind into reality again…FINALLY I was feeling DEEPLY happy, and I don’t mean it as a feeling but as a BEING…I am happiness,…that’s what I felt anyways. What do you think this is? Do you think this was spiritual ecstasy? What does it mean to have an experience like this? What do I do now? How do I continue my path? Your response would be very much appreciated. I don’t know who to ask or where to look for!
Response:
This is a wonderful spiritual experience. You significantly characterized your experience of happiness not as a feeling but as a state of Being. Your experience has given you a deep grounding in your true nature. The ancient sages said that our ultimate reality is Sat Chit Ananda—absolute bliss consciousness. You experienced your silent consciousness as your own blissful existence. There is nothing you need to do with this experience. A part of your Self has awakened and some value of that will always remain with you now as you move toward you full realization.
Love,
Deepak
