Robert Adam's awakening

[Guest guest]

When I had my spiritual awakening, I was fourteen yours old. This body was

sitting in a classroom taking a math test. All of the sudden I felt myself

expanding, I never left my body, which proves that the body never existed to

begin with. I felt the body expanding, and a brilliant light began to come out

of my heart. I happened to see this light in all directions. I had peripheral

vision, and this light was really my Self. It was not my body and the light.

There were not two. There was this light that become brighter and brighter and

brighter, the light of a thousand suns. I thought I would be brunt to a crisp,

but alas, I wasn't.

 

How did you do on the test?

I haven't come to that yet.

 

But this brilliant light, which I was the center and also the circumference,

expanded throughout the universe, and I

was able to

feel the planets, the stars, the galaxies, as myself. And this light shone so

bright, yet it was beautiful, it was bliss, it was ineffable, indescribable.

 

After a while the light began to fade away, and there was no darkness. There was

just a place between light and

darkness,

the place beyond the light. you can call it the void, but it wasn't just a void.

It was this pure awareness I always talk

about.

I was aware that I AM THAT I AM.

I was aware of the whole universe at the same time. There was no time, there was

no space, there was just the I AM.

 

Then everything began to return to normal, so to speak. I was able to feel, and

understand, that all of the planets,

the galaxies, the people,

the trees, the flowers on this earth, everything, were myriads of energy, and I

was in everything. I was the flower.

I was the sky. I was the people. The I was everything. Everything was the I.

The word "I" encompassed the whole universe.
