Guest guest Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 From COSMIC CONSCIOUSNESS, Richard Maurice Bucke, M.D. "He was in a state of quiet, almost passive enjoyment. All at once, without warning of any kind, he found himself wrapped around as it were by a flame-colored cloud. For an instant he thought of fire, some sudden conflagration in the great city; the next, he knew that the light was within himself. Directly afterwards came upon him a sense of exultation, of immense joyousness accompanied or immediately followed by an intellectual illumination quite impossible to describe. Into his brain streamed one momentary lightning-flash of the Brahmic Splendor which has ever since lightened his life; upon his heart fell one drop of Brahmic Bliss, leaving thence-forward for always an aftertaste of heaven.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 A nice text, so I believe this must have been edited afterwards. 'for always an aftertaste of heaven' ???? an everlasting aftertaste of anything, thank you very much, but a week or two will be just fine : ) Alan , "Michael Bowes" <aumshanti wrote: > > From > > COSMIC CONSCIOUSNESS, Richard Maurice Bucke, M.D. > > > > "He was in a state of quiet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
