Glimpes of Ecstasy

You are one and the same
In joy and sorrow,
Hope and despair,
Life and death.
You are already fulfilled.

Let yourself dissolve.


-Ashtavakra Gita 5:4

Sometimes, after doing mantras, hours later, I am almost outside of my body, looking in on my experience, wondering, am I really just me? Aren't I also in my boyfriend's mind? Am I just making up that I am in a body?

And then afterward, I just enjoy doing the simple things I've done before, and seeing the magic in them.
