what do you know about studying your own subjective experience?
for instance:
is it like a raindrop or an ocean?
what could I hope to find?
is it true that I shouldn't get out of the boat unless I'm willing to go all the way?
:)

Deep Thoughts...
Introspection:
Is it like a raindrop or is it like an an ocean?
What might one possibly hope to find?
One might discover how easily 'the raindrop' merges into 'the ocean'?
Within such research, one might possibly observe and experience ones true essence (Ruh).
for instance:
One must first examine and understand the vessel that one is riding in.
Only then can one truly examine and understand the ocean that one is floating upon.
What is the unique relationship between said vessel and said ocean?
How does one observe such a divinely unique relationship?
One will never understand such a relationship until one actually decides to "Go All The Way".
It has been said that few are actually ready to make such an eternal commitment.
Until one makes such an eternal commitment, one will continue to be 'the one being studied'.
Sooner or later one must become a "student", and humbly begin to study.
Golly, somewhere within such a unique process one might even learn to know and understand one-self.
Peace be always with you.

Keep a journal
Simple exercises can be the most illuminating
Try drawing or art work to express your experience
Taking words out of what you are trying to study can make for some good art

It's like the rings on the surface of water when you throw something in - the rings just keep appearing and moving further out and away - expanding - until you can't see them anymore.

I know quite a bit. What you will find is, as you wake up, the first Truth you see is the truth about yourself. If that's what you want, you can sail your boat straight into it. Although it is a one way trip ;)

Aramaic Bible in Plain English (©2010)
“It is easier for a camel to enter into the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God.”
But to be true to self before I: then let’s dance till the dawn rises in our hearts.
To get out of the boat takes faith, but is it the Lord? Well it does not take much to test it? But does she have it or is it a show of strength again its wings faith alone mistress of ministry. Even in the dust will she love me, I test of heart and soul, we will see her and him. Do we have it she said, smiles, only God knows all the way she said…
The word will never die I been told.
