RE: What is one of the most profound spiritual experiences of your life? @ecoTrain - Question of the week

in #writing7 years ago

I don't know how you felt at 27 but it is a very strange age, definitely the age i was closest to dark ideas. I would summarize after reading your post that every single moment is a spiritual experience with the addendum "if you want to". Opening to the mystery of life makes the whole life experience spiritual. So maybe the big highlight or most profound one wasn't there but i like your contribution a lot as you opened my eyes to the everything-is-spiritual idea. Ok, maybe 2hr/day on Steemit not really, i have to think about that :-)

Thanks @bubke. Your post was awesome. I wasn't going to post this, but then changed my mind after reading your story. Yes, I think spiritual experiences can and do happen all the time in all sorts of places and circumstances. Sometimes a subtle feeling of oneness and being connected to something bigger and deeper. .. Sometimes massive and life changing, like the one you described, when the whole fabric of reality is torn apart.
Yes, 27 is a very significant age. I think it has a lot to do with the Saturn return. Saturn has an orbit of 29.5 years, and during the time it returns toward where it was when we were born, can be a period of big changes and upheaval.
