Experiencing everything as the self. Is this awakening?

Is this awakening?

Who knows. Time will tell.

I kind of wanted outside validation of my conclusions.

I hereby formally validate your conclusions: You have validly experienced what you have experienced, and concluded what you concluded.

Happy now?

Anyone have a similar experience?

Sure. I went up a mountain one day, and didn't quite manage to come down again.

Some time in summer on a street, it was hot, and then I wasn't there. And then I had to hurry to get to work on time.

And once I went to work by bus and for a moment nothing happened, and then something happened again. Luckily I didn't miss my stop.

To be honest, I don't give much about experiences anymore. The glow fades. Getting up on a winter morning with lots of cold wind, a little rain, and snow mixed in, after just a little too little sleep, now that's an experience that teaches you something worthwhile!

The spectacular stuff where some big things dissolve? Also very nice. But ultimately... what do you do with that?

Yes, that happened. That much is true. But beyond that? Not really that important, I think.
