p. 213

How Do IRelate This Experience to My Life? Q; Irecently had an experience where Iwas over¬ whelmed by aflash of blazing light. It left me feeling very excited and at the same time deeply at peace. How do Irelate this experience to my life? A; Why do you need to be able to relate that experience to your life? You should relate your life to that experience! That experience is potentially much bigger than your life. If you are lucky that experience will destroy your life entirely. If you are lucky your whole life will dissolve into that blazing light. Then you will be truly Free. Spiritual experiences are for one purpose only. They enable you to realize the impersonal. If you are lucky your experience will be so profound that it will result in your complete destruction. Then you will see things very differently. Then questions like, "Where does this fit in?" will fall away forever. 2 1 3
