Experience description:

  I had just gone to bed (approx 11:00pm) lying on my right side with my right arm under my head.  I was facing the bedroom wall, which was approximately 4' to 5' from the edge of the bed.  All at once I became aware of three splendid, unearthly plants between me and the bedroom wall... they were translucent, but vivid pastel colors and seemed to shimmer.... I felt such a wonderful affinity with them...

then I saw (between myself and these three plants) what I thought was my right hand in a "C" configuration like that of the sign language "C".... but later realized that it couldn't have been 'MY' R/hand unless I suddenly became somehow double jointed..?... (I'd had to have turned my R? hand around backwards).

The plants and the hand faded and I was transported to a beautiful ski slope and was aware of effortlessly skiing down a gentle slope... enthralled with the gentle (and not cold) breeze and the sensation of the effortless glide.  At this point I became acutely aware of other beings [souls] all around me, but I didn't see anybody....I was just surrounded by very familiar, warm loving souls... such a protected, vibrant feeling !  Somehow I lost balance and fell over onto my back and began racing downhill head first !...

Gathering more and more speed, flat on my back accelerating downhill.... and I became fearful, thinking "what if I hit a tree"....  then suddenly for some inexplicit reason, I remembered to surrender and trust... (trust is something I had left far behind in my drug and alcohol days)... Just as soon as I remembered to surrender and trust a higher power I uttered the words, "Thy Will Be Done"... and at once there was a rush.. a sound of rushing water or air  that went from my left ear, through my head to my right ear.... a tremendous acceleration. 

All of a sudden there I was suspended over what I can only describe as a "Celestial Ocean accompanied by the most magnificent symphony I have ever heard... but...I didn't actually hear it... there was no sound... (the sound of silence ? or the soundless sound ?) it was more like totally experiencing it with all of my senses AND my sense seemed to cross over... I mean I could actually taste, smell and feel color and sound.... there were no limits or boundaries... I was It and It was Me.... I suddenly knew what it was to be one with the all that is...  at one with the universe.... what a profound peace... awesome.... exhilarating.... spiritually moving.  Such clarity and at the same time simplicity..... Timeless.... words absolutely fail (and almost degrade) the experience.....I've always been reluctant to even try to describe it....

The closest thing I've ever seen as an" attempt" to illustrate this kind of experience is that seen from "Contact" when Jody Foster is transported to the where ever.... vivid colors, gentle breeze, she waves her hand through the Galaxy and it stirs and shimmers..... and she is in absolute awe and wonder... at a loss to describe or comprehend...
