Thank you for your lovely response .....
Just wanted to ask some things as I really just brushed over with the response ..... would just be interesting to see how alike the experience was for us ....
I was lifted up in what seemed like darkness .. although that didnt matter because the love was so intense that was all that had my attention....
Then before me was a light .... perhaps like a moon with no edges .... or like a cloud .... and then you recognise this "light" like an old friend and it beckons for you to look without moving .... and then you look as as you do you join with the light ....
In the next instant you become a pillar of perfect white light .... and you look upon your SELF snd the purity and in that moment understand that all you thought you were ... you never were ..... and that you have always been this .... this perfet pure Light / Love....
(At this point did you see how we had split of into sparks of the ONE light ? )
And then before you another arc of goldn light appears as as you look upon it .... you join it and this is where your words meet mine .... the waves of love that rush through you ..... God OUR Father greeting us ..... like the prodigal Son
And then just this utter love peace .... equality that cannot be spoken ... many many others things .....
And then finally the idea "the others" .... aka must go back and speak this to all ..... that we are all ONE and there is only LOVE .....
Sorry rambling
Finally .... I suspect you might recognize the following taken from ACIM .... I appologise to all for the long passage below but hope you will excuse my indulgence.
Listen, perhaps you catch a hint of an ancient state not quite forgotten; dim, perhaps, and yet not altogether unfamiliar, like a song whose name is long forgotten; and the circumstances in which you heard completely unremembered. Not the whole song has stayed with you, but just a little wisp of melody, attached not to a person or a place or anything particular. But you remember, from just this little part, how lovely was the song, how wonderful the setting where you heard it, and how you loved those who were there and listened with you.
The notes are nothing. Yet you have kept them with you, not for themselves, but as a soft reminder of what would make you weep if you remembered how dear it was to you. You could remember, yet you are afraid, believing you would lose the world you learned since then. And yet you know that nothing in the world you learned is half so dear as this. Listen, and see if you remember an ancient song you knew so long ago and held more dear than any melody you taught yourself to cherish since.
Beyond the body, beyond the sun and stars, past everything you see and yet somehow familiar, is an arc of golden light that stretches as you look into a great and shining circle. And all the circle fills with light before your eyes. The edges of the circle disappear, and what is in it is no longer contained at all. The light expands and covers everything, extending to infinity forever shining and with no break or limit anywhere. Within it everything is joined in perfect continuity. Nor is it possible to imagine that anything could be outside, for there is nowhere that this light is not.
This is the vision of the Son of God, whom you know well. Here is the sight of him who knows his Father. Here is the memory of what you are; a part of this, with all of it within, and joined to all as surely as all is joined in you. Accept the vision that can show you this, and not the body. You know the ancient song, and know it well. Nothing will ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn the Son of God sings to his Father still.
And now the blind can see, for that same song they sing in honour of their Creator gives praise to them as well. The blindness that they made will not withstand the memory of this song. And they will look upon the vision of the Son of God, remembering who he is they sing of. What is a miracle but this remembering? And who is there in whom this memory lies not? The light in one awakens it in all. And when you see it in your brother, you
are remembering for everyone.
