Man of Knowledge, first taste.

I ride my bike down the streets Of Bratislava's old town And along the Danube River. Every man is my brother, Every woman is my sister. I didn't know I had this capacity for love; It is not an emotion, It is a state. Nothing can shake it, Nothing can diminish it. I feel no fear and no doubt, My senses are clean and sharp, My mind is empty, And everything is perfect. I marvel at the wonder of creation As it reveals itself in finer detail. I think to myself That this is the state In which saints, Or Buddha, Would exist. Nirvana, samadhi, or absorption. Total love. Yet, I know that I am far from it, And it will soon start to fade away. Gradually, I will return to my ordinary state, And it will feel like stone, Cold, ruthless and limited. But something is left lingering. Man of knowledge, Write it on your heart. The highest outcome, The highest purpose, The highest goal. (Man of Knowledge, first taste - Marian Dufala, 26.8.2023) .Backstory and what came next: This event happened a few years ago, before I even knew what meditation was or how to do it. Despite it being probably the strongest experience of my life up to that point, I returned to my old ways right away. Oscillating between fear, anger, greed, self-doubt, lust and brief moments of happiness and contentment. Identifying with the body and drinking myself numb too often. Just standard ego-driven behavior. :) But the more I thought about this experience, the more I realized it made sense. For the first time in my life, I was able to look at myself from a new perspective, and I knew it was true. Finally, after a few months, decided to follow the outlined path, simply because I couldn't imagine a more beautiful story for myself, and there was no better plan. In my own clumsy way, I started to follow it to the best of my abilities. This path quickly brought me to meditation, which is, in many aspects, the ultimate knowledge (or the knowledge of the ultimate). Further down the road, I realized that this experience was the first taste of a meditative state, and I got thrown right into the deep end. A little taste that lasts a lifetime. And all I can say at this point is that since then, I have loved every single second of it. It has completely transformed my life for the better, and it was all true. Among other things, it completely killed my cravings for alcohol (I will write about this subject in more detail), drastically improved my prosperity and relationships. It has guided me to fulfill my dreams and allowed me to live much closer to the state that I experienced for the first time. But what is more important, it allowed me to find God within the meditative silence. Which I had absolutely no inclination towards before, despite a lifetime of my parents' efforts. So what is the message? Start meditating. Find your true nature for yourself, and your largest obstacles will be removed.
