Nice, all parts of perception are really one. There is not a seperate seer seeing the seen. There is not a seperate seeing of the seen object by a seer. There is not a seperate seen object apart from the seer seeing it. Non-duality exists when we drop our boundary of objects being seperate from You.

My point is this. I freed my mind in that moment, but when I did I realised before, what I thought was free, was merely another trap I got myself stuck in.
How many of you out there have fallen into the trap of thinking you know what you know?

I don't see your trap. Being free in a moment is being free. The part about thinking about it and taking it apart is snapping out of being free. Trying to know something may not be the goal of non-duality experience. It might be the opposite - the less one holds beliefs of any kind, the more apt one is to experience non-duality. It's our beliefs that create duality, in other words. I believe I'm an ego that can define things as outside of myself.
