@Rigel Yea that would be f'd up for sure.

They both make a great fertilizer.

Just speak softly and don't do anything to piss her off.

Good one!

Take a quantum leap from localized consciousness to non-localized consciousness. You can do it now. Are you familiar with quantum physics? The double slit experiment? It proves that when a wave is observed it collapses into a particle. Think about what that means. Your observing (through conscious awareness) is creating physical reality and all that goes with it. Spend some time in that frame of mind and tell me your consciousness didn't expand. A guy like Peter Ralston knows this. When he performs karate, he is aware of every motion as it moves through space-time. How? Because he is observing from the non-localized quantum field. To warm up for a competition he probably just sits in total silence and becomes one with it. Edit: Just listened to Peter Ralston, which I haven't done in years, and he refers to the quantum field that I speak of as "the absolute" and localized consciousness as "the relative". I know we are speaking dualistically here but when each is known they will come full circle and merge into one.

I do the opposite. The day-to-day routine stuff is grounded in consciousness.

@CARDOZZO For me "practical spirituality" means the merging of spirituality with quantum physics to arrive at what could be called 'quantum consciousness'. Let me give an example. For instance, this forum is happening within time and space. But the origin or source of the forum began outside the confines of time and space within the quantum field, a field of pure potentiality. The quantum field surrounds everything. It permeates everything. It is the ground source of everything within time and space. It is the very source of this post/topic you started. So even though I am conversing here, and now, within time and space there remains the awareness of the quantum field (outside of T/S) surrounding it. So, I guess one could say that consciousness has taken on a higher dynamic range. And maintaining that higher dynamic range throughout the day is what I gauge my progress on.

@Selfnaught This is why enlightenment is so accessible to anyone. It's only a matter of remembering what you have always been.

It's all part of territory when it comes to wits = the mind.

@integral Perhaps a shift to quantum (nonlocalized) consciousness is the answer you seek.

@Bobby_2021 Talking about Truth is a lot like talking about skydiving. You can hear a thousand stories about it but until you experience it directly you can only imagine what the talk really means.

What I'm talking about happens in the absence of self-awareness so yes, we are talking about two different things.

You may also want to look into "Quantum Consciousness" (relating to the quantum field).

It's rare because one must transcend the mind as the mind keeps us stuck in identity and therefore stuck in space-time (location). Transcend the mind and you transcend space-time. So, I think what you experienced could be referred to as "nonlocalized" consciousness. That is consciousness liberated from the constraints of the mind = pure consciousness or as you call it "crystalline consciousness".

Do whatever comes most naturally and you will never regret it.

Reality doesn't change. What changes is how you experience reality. A shift in perception. You visited the quantum field of reality where all things meet as one.

This is you re-claiming what has always been yours.

Or maybe God likes to have a few every now and again and gets a little sloppy. Don't know what happened there but good to have you back.

@Jowblob Chalk it up to a glitch in the matrix.

Like what?

I got ya. The flow state.

Learn to use a period "." where needed instead of a "," to avoid run-on sentences. *See below. Other than that good stuff. Glad to hear you are enjoying the show. *All the curves, all the silhouettes, all the colors, lights, shapes, objects, dimensions, geometries, patterns etc, it is all incredible. The way it all operates coherently or even operates coherently regardless of whether you are aware of it or not. The small little variations of the light in your surroundings and the small little variations in the causes leading up to it. The freedom you have to analyze and investigate all these things.
