Ego Death and Non-Dual Awareness

Ego death occurs with non-dual awareness, which is the state of understanding that we are all one. Separation is an illusion. Like sunlight being split by a crystal, a prismatic ray is a rainbow – instead of white light, now is seen seven distinct colors. One might think these exist independently, but truly they are from one source. We are a singular driver, and each body is a vehicle. Like we can step out of a car that we drive, we can also step out of the body into a non-physical realm of awareness – the great stillness, the void, the grand consciousness.

In perfect timing, I discovered myself beneath the mountain of ashes and debris that had once been my life.I started going to 12 Step meetings and got a sponsor. Later, I sponsored others, all the while studying what I could. I wanted the time I spent to mean something. I wanted to change. I wanted to stop selling myself short, wanted to be better.
