Short of extensive brain damage, do you think that's possible? |
Yes. I do think it is possible, and in my opinion, brain damage wouldn't quite do the trick.
I think it would have to involve something transcendent -- something that happens when you let go of the world of form, specificity, and duality completely. I don't know if you put any stock in that sort of thing, but I believe in a state beyond all conditioning, beyond all form as we know it -- a state of All Existence. A state where you realize nothingness never did or could exist, except in this illusion we mistake for the Real World. Call it Nirvana, Heaven, Bliss, God, Source, or whatever else floats your boat.
