    Yes My dear Phae,

    You see i am not enlightened, so it is limited to some moments of life only, so they are in fact more precious to people, who are still not living in true nature.

    These moments when we melt into one, and feel our own nature in others, this "others" cease to exist, and when i feel feel that "Connection" and realize that this "Connection" never existed, for there were never more than one to be connected, can there be a more beautiful thing, and i am telling it to you, Phae, who shares the same oneness with me. But me being in the manifested limits, sometime when doing three four things at a time, for living and bread, I cherish all such wonderful connections i am constantly alluded, and not the oneness behind.

    Bless me, so that i some day live in my true glory , and become a component of all your hearts flow.

    { { { Beautiful Experience Don, Beautiful is this world, Beautiful are its ways. Neither this is incomplete , nor that, in that completeness this feels incomplete and enjoying this incompleteness, this realizes its completeness. than flows love assiduously, than we have , there we have, love as our true nature. } } }

    I would have to say that I have experienced Spiritual Ecstasy, for the record ecstasy comes from the root word 'ex stasis' to stand outside oneself.

    With that definition in mind I would say that I have had several such experiences, ones that people might label as Out Of Body Experiences, Near Death Experience, Past Life Memory, Astral Travel, Oneness and also the bliss available to us during altered states of consciousness.

    All spiritual phenomenon are difficult to explain, depict and share by their very nature of course. What I can say is that states of Spiritual Ecstasy may seem alien if you do not recall having experienced them (we all have at some time had one as far as I am concerned) but when they are happening we become aware that they are a part of our normal state of being, our own full human nature.

    Sometimes they leave us delighted, sometimes troubled, but always amazed.

    Honestly,

    I experienced what may be the opposite after I made confession after many, many years.

    The simple release and acknowledgment of my regrets, sins, failures, and character defects was in a sense, a spiritual Ecstasy.

    Though in the moment, it was not a good kind of Ecstasy. It was a rather gruelingly emotional experience. But the self knowledge and personal growth obtained can be described as a Spiritual Ecstasy.

    I agree with you, it's almost impossible to put this in words.

    It only happens. Its an extraordinary creative energy taken place in me, pure & simple. Everything seem to be part of me. Nothing is separate, in fact, the "me" is absent. It's alive & beautiful. My eyes don't see, there's no sense of time. Like "I " am not experiencing, there's only that state, that experience. I feel a Presence, a Benediction. The silence is cleansing all things. There's a sacredness about it, but it's not religious, it's uncontaminated, unthought of. I'm fully alert, aware of everything. This can last for a day or for hrs.

    I do meditation for a long time, and this is not something that you force to happen, it suddenly happens when you're at peace and silent.

    I would never this for any dope on earth, this surpass all! I call this Bliss. I had those experiences so many times and of course still do. I'm happy you have those too.

    Thanks, I guess you've experienced that. LOL.

    Yes i have experienced the Spiritual Ecstasy.

    In 1986 January 1st week my 3rd eye opened-(with tremendous energy)---between the eye brows center. I was guided by so many happening / miracles and drawn to a great Guru at Chennai, Tamil Nady, India. Followings his good & correct path I realised the first tremendous experience in November final week, 1986( a fuul moon day) and totaly merged with the universe -full view of stars & galaxy appeared & I was one with the universe and lost my body conscious. That type appearence / visualisation never reappeared.

    Nowadays I am able to go beyand this universe by expanding my mind in to the Nature's dark & silent state with full Consciousness-a calm Bliss full state of mind. That way, now i am doing regularly and there by washing my sins -imprints acquired all through various births & animal lifes.

    Now I am showing this easy simple non-religious path who ever in need of it. Now I am serving in CA, USA.

    The spiritual experiances of persons will vary in many ways and need not be simillar.Finally the individual should realise the Truth Which is a Dark,Silent & Endless Calm Staic State with Total Consciousness.

    When I go to church and praise God and worship I experience different types of what you call spiritual ecstasy. God takes me on different experiences. One I remember felt like I was lifted up high like and a sensation of total joy like a ride or something because it ended abruptly. And I was saying hey I want to do that again.another one is I feel the air is thick around me and everywhere I look I see peace and perfection and joy. Nothing is wrong everything is just right. This is the rest of God when we feel all our problems are nothing and we feel only peace and joy. I have felt drunk and giggly in church after worship and we try to talk and can't talk right. No hangover. This is being drunk in the spirit. God made the universe and he can make you feel better than drugs. The bible says to gather with two or three in his name and he will be there in the midst of us. he is with us already but we can start to feel God's presence when we worship or gather together with other believers in Jesus name to have a prayer group sing songs and talk about God.

    And "spiritual ecstasy" would come in a bottle? just kidding.

    Don't know that I actually ever have, but that being said, I think that I have experienced something from God. I can't help but praise God for 60 years of life, never broke a bone, never had an operation, never had any serious illness, and that to me is an "Amazing Grace." Don't know why I was picked out for that blessing, maybe there is some purpose or is some purpose yet to be shown to me.

    Wow! What great answers! I'm delighted that so many people report such powerful experiences.

    I have often experienced the sacred, but rarely the ecstatic. But once when living in Maine I went for a walk at night. It was very windy and I lay down to listen to the wind (it was in autumn). It struck me that the wind was the voice of God, and this was one of my first truly religious experiences.

    Once while composing poetry I was granted a vision of a mandala. In each section of the mandala was a face of the Divine, yet they were all human as well. I was much surprised to find that even Nazis and pedophiles were in this mandala. It was a vision of inclusiveness I can never forget.

    I haven't yet learned to love Nazis and pedophiles, but somehow God does.

    And here is a poem I have had, a vision of divine splendor:

    Sol Invictus

    Gawaine Caldwater Ross

    Oh light in the heavens

    Feeding the leaves,

    Pour your love down

    All around me.

    Here comes the Sun!

    Here comes the King!

    Here comes the Lord

    Who made everything!

    He made the mountains,

    He made the trees,

    He made the oceans,

    And he made me.

    Fire is his nature

    Creation is His game

    Life is His energy

    And Love is His name.

    My spiritual ecstasy was confirmed by a shrink as symptoms of schizophrenic bi-polar disorder. One of the most enlightening moments of my life, one of the most profound events and thats what a doctor reduced it to. Needless to say I have more faith in my spiritual ecstasy than any head shrink. It made me laugh and it was a good way to bring me back down to earth.

    First of all i am just a learner, but i wanted to share something with you. "Ecstasy" is something which happens in association , with Divine.

    Before my Grandma Passed away she game me a love bath, like Don also have shared.

    So such experiences are only limited to such spirits, or God or Enlightened masters. if really you got ecstatic and lot more love got added by associating with someone, than without next second delay and immediately understand the nature of that being to be Divine.

    There is no doubt with this. If you are feeling ecstatic in physical presence or by knowing of some being, than that being is evolved and advanced being. she/He is no more a normal human or animal.

    They are already part of god hood or they are in the process of merging.
