Each day is really much like a new lifetime...
..... to learn to "be in the world, but not a part of it". We hear this from Jesus Christ, and Bhagavan Krishna... and many other saints... this is an easy concept on some layers, but a continual striving to reach the finer, subtle, states...
*******
the ancient rishis (seers), the great ones, saints and sages have discovered simple, subtle truths and practices that lead us to evolve to gradually exhibit conscious control over the involuntary nervous system and organs. it is in this manner, that we hear of the references of "I rejoice in Christ (consciousness), I die daily", and other references that hint at the expression of grace we MAY reach by God's loving grace... to be able to consciously observe the workings of the enlivening inter-workings of the physical, astral, causal, and spirit realms... for the physical body to still, yet be sustained... in this manner a great graced yogi may expand...
we little ones strive, and see glimmers of these truths, as a mist is blown away and parted for a bit, we have glimpses... eventually we learn how to quiet and be in the world (fully functioning outwardly), yet be evermore pulled in later years towards the undivided experiences, with potential grace of mahasamadhi (final conscious exit from the physical garb).

Nomaste it is wonderful to become one with your thoughts Namaste2All. My radio waves are attuning themselves to you dear friend. But what do others have to grab on to experience and reach these finer, subtle states? They must look for the spiritual technology which induces these experiences. For this they need to find the help of a guru who can teach such things as the iam and kriya techniques. We are much blessed to have them and it is in our interest to make use of them. The potential is there but the seeker often stops along the way for entertaining spiritual scenery while missing the taste of the juicy fruits that lie on the trees of fortune.
