Perception is a strange thing

[lmfao]

I was meditating today, and recently I've been more frequently reaching more higher consciousness states (even though earlier today I was freaking out in contrast to how I feel right this moment). 

I feel as though I exist in a moment which has no cause. It just is. I don't know whether to use the word eternity or infintesimally small to describe it. When I'm at a peak high consciousness state, I start to see through the illusion of perception and words. The existence of any perception or the existence of any thought requires time, but if time doesn't exist for you then how can reality/perception exist for you?

When I'm in a high consciousness state, the word "cat" doesn't exist but when I'm in a low consciousness state the word does exist. Sounds, sight, touch, its as though none of these exist when I'm in a high consciousness state. It's as though thoughts, concepts and words don't exist. With that being said, the fact that I still make this thread is very funny. I don't even know why I'm making this thread, in fact I don't know anything. I find things so strange, hence the title of this thread. 

When someone meditates, does yoga, self-inquiry or whatever, you can start to feel deep in your bones that THE INSTANT you try to grasp or hold onto something that something has gone and/or (dissappeared) /(changed form). And once you are aware of that, the only possible reaction you have is to just give up clinging and be happy about the whole thing. Because the whole thing makes no sense whatsoever and so when you're  shown such absurdity (I mean nothing negative by the word "absurdity", positive if anything) the only reaction you can have is to just give up clinging and laugh, you know?

The ineffable nature of things is that they are actually absent by virtue of their emptiness. When the ineffable is taken as existent, labeling occurs out of confusion. Yet even when there is labeling in awareness there is neither confusion nor its opposite.
