"The experience of bliss consciousness has become more clear, intense, and stable not only during Transcendental Meditation but also during activity. Now I find that a soft but strong feeling of blissful evenness is present most of the time in both mind and body. Physically it is expressed as an extremely delightful liveliness throughout the body.
"This evenness is so deep and stable that it is able to maintain its status even in the face of great activity. Even when faced with great problems, this blissful evenness of mind and body continues. Every day it grows stronger and more stable. This evenness cushions one against all possible disruptions and makes all activity easy and enjoyable. Every place is heaven when you feel that evenness. One is completely self-sufficient. Nothing can prevent one from having that fabulous inner mental and physical blissfulness."
A report of unity consciousness: "Increasingly I experience everything and everyone as nothing other than my own Self. ... It seems that Being ... is shining and glistening and even smiling at me from the surface of everything. ... It's as if the inner Being, the Self of everything, somehow rises to the surface and makes itself apparent. ... With this experience of my own Self in all things, love begins to flow -- love without boundaries, without exceptions, without considerations of any sort. Love flows out towards all that I perceive and seems to flow back to me as well."
A description of permanent enlightenment: '''Relative life' is still there, but it is eternally and completely cloaked in, saturated by, and imbued with this indescribable, attributeless softness of one's own eternal Self. When that is the ultimate reality for you, life is just softer, more filled with those most fundamental qualities of creation: beauty, love, sweetness, and wholeness, in a perfectly integrated way -- in their finest, most mist-like, indescribable value. It is lovely beyond words. ... One begins to see that one is not the body at all, not the limited personality, but something beyond that -- something eternal, unchanging, unbounded, removed from the fray of what we used to consider daily life. ... Never before had it been so obvious that I have always been, that there is no end to me."
Pearson presents scientific research showing Transcendental Meditation effectively and regularly produces higher states of consciousness. It creates a pattern of brain waves, hormonal levels, and metabolic rates significantly different from meditations based on concentration and control, which are mental activities and therefore less effective at reaching the non-active state of samadhi , transcendental consciousness, in which the mind is alert and aware but free of thoughts. TM uses a special method of non-concentrative thinking that takes the mind effortlessly to the deeper, silent, unbounded realms. There it becomes suffused with the energy, intelligence, and happiness at the source of our Being and brings these qualities back into the active, thinking dimension, where they enrich our lives and improve our performance.
The Supreme Awakening first inspires us, then shows us how to make this inspiration a reality by becoming enlightened ourselves. Pearson has given us a practical guide to living an exalted life.
