Two or three good sentences and I'm there - wide awake. It is a state beyond and inclusive of sleep, dream and waking. The center of this, or focus, or attention, or identity, or consciousness without object, or whatever faltering word we throw at it, is no longer drawn into self-forgetting by the myriad of sensual and mental objects constantly besieging it. I am clear, settled, poised, empty and brimming at once. A very insistent tingling in my forehead and the top of my skull often accompanies this, unbidden. I may have triggered a positive signal from the body that I have done something right. The Sadguru beckons that I am getting warmer.
