Probably one of the nicest things that's ever happened to me, like up there with beautiful events like marriage.
Absolutely amazing. A secret nobody is talking about, and I've never felt anything like it. I'm so grateful; I'm a better and happier person.
To know there's this infinite resource within me that's accessible without external conditions…it's just crazy. You can't unsee that.
This experience was the best thing that's happened to me this year. I had no idea how enjoyable meditation could be.
Why would I have a second piece of chocolate cake when I know I can beat that by 100x in 10 minutes with my eyes closed?
The jhanas may be the single most important thing on the planet right now. You may think it's superintelligence or longevity. That's nothing without wellbeing.
