Existing outside the faculties

Do you think it's possible to maintain Loving Presence/Awareness when the brain shuts down? When our attachment to the bodies faculties is released, can we hold on to Peace, God and Love?

When the brain shuts down and only conscious awareness is manifest, we indeed experience freedom from the the ceaseless activities of the brains thoughts and restlessness. Holding on will only necessitate its opposite…. letting go of peace, God and love. There are many paradoxes that the brain can not assimilate because such experiences are beyond the apparatus of its activities. When we are in a state of love and no interference from thought arises, then we continue experiencing peace, God and love.

It's what IS and what in many cases, is not. Or better phrased, simply the working of our mind. Gurunath wants nothing to do with the quagmires of our mind. I've experienced a type of breath that would massage my consciousness and allow me to be Peace free from personality. Like existing outside my self.

I'm having trouble lately. Despite using the same meditative posture I've had for ages, these last few years my leg falls asleep after 20 minutes. It's also been difficult navigating physical ailments and holding my own energy.
