No illumination experience change the life, because it is a part of imagination faculty of mind!. If one hang to illumination experience still one is hanged or clinged to the imagination or mind!. Till mind is there, there is no changes in life!. If mind get dropped, there is changes in life!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

yeah when i was a young teen i got a flash of what my life would be like if i kept on going the direction that i was going!. i stopped, opened my eyes and took a good, long, hard look at what kind of life i was living!. i didn't like the people i was hanging out with, i didn't like the things i was doing, and i didn't like the look of some of the older people that i sometimes hung out with and knew that if i continued that i would end up like them and i didn't want to go there!. so i went home, took a hot shower, and avoided those people and places!. it worked and i straitened myself quick!. but then i had only been in it a year or so!. i hadn't gotten very far!. the bad habits are still her but i have control over them and do not act!. now if i could just kick the addiction to food!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Uhh!.!. Yes!.

Once, when I was standing on the church, the pastor told us to close our eyes and I was too shy to follow him (I mean, I think it looks silly)!. Oh well, after a few seconds when everybody else are closing their eyes and I'm just standing, watching them!.!. I begun to see nothing -- AS IN TOTALLY NOTHING!. I was so scared!. I reached my way outside the door and I heard a voice asking if I was alright!. I can't even answer!.!. After a while, I begun to see things again!.!.

This just to taught me to listen and not be ashamed to do silly stuff and do things I'm being told to do -- especially when a it's a religious man who tells me to!. Geez!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
