I did not think you were such a man. I am looking forward to your quotes though so I have no mind waiting.

Ah, yes. I didn't mean to imply that I thought that you thought that I was such a man. I have been told by close family and friends, people I trust dearly, that I have a tendency to come across as "overly severe" when I am disagreeing with something. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't coming across as if I thought I was "the big cheese," so-to-speak. I'm not "the big cheese." I'm just sour milk.''

Look at me, blatantly a liar. I said that I'd decline further responses. This is just further proof that I'm "sour milk!"

No problem...i prefer to order a Mindar for my personal liturgy

This explanation blew my mind. Much of this lines up with my understanding but I have never seen it explained in such a clear and direct way.

"Another interesting property of my life, is I can't seem to gain my balance. I often feel ever so slightly off balance. I believe this "vertigo" is related to the heightened awareness I have developed in my senses. One of the most over looked senses is our sense of balance, which comes from sensors in the inner ear. It is this sense of balance though that is critical to our species method of bipedal locomotion. I believe the sense of euphoria one experiences during the ecstasies is a charism characteristic of a heightened awareness the sense of balance. It is this, perhaps overly acute, awareness of the sense of balance that keeps me feeling slightly off balance, almost as though I am drunk, or in euphoria."

I really enjoy the level of depth they explain their experiences.

In a similar vain, I once had a Buddhist teacher tell me that one sign that you were nearing enlightenment was a ringing in your ears.
