Love, Surrender and Awakening...................................................
Robert Adams tells of his awakening experience
and what followed as below. After that I discuss what
his story means to me based on my time with him and
my own life since he left us.
Robert:
“When I had my spiritual awakening I was fourteen
years old. This body was sitting in a classroom taking a
math test. And all of a sudden I felt myself expanding.
I never left my body, which proves that the body never
existed to begin with. I felt the body expanding, and a
brilliant light began to come out of my heart. I
happened to see this light in all directions. I had
peripheral vision, and this light was really my Self. It
was not my body and the light. There were not two.
There was this light that became brighter, and brighter
and brighter, the light of a thousand suns. I thought I
would be burnt to a crisp, but alas, I was not.
This brilliant light, of which I was the center and
also the circumference, expanded throughout the
universe, and I was able to feel the planets, the stars,
the galaxies, as myself. And this light shone so bright,
yet it was beautiful, it was bliss, it was ineffable,
indescribable.
