What happens in out of body experiences? Or times when you seem to disappear momentarily and then come back to yourself? So what is Stepping Out of Time Into Eternity?
Rupert explains that in these moments the mind is brought to an end. And when the mind is brought to an end, time — which only exists in the mind — also comes to an end. Thus, you step out of time and visit eternity, then come back into time. Where you ‘go’ is indescribable because it is not known by the finite mind.
Great sorrow, grief, fear, shock and amazement are some of the ways the mind is brought to an end. That is why these profound experiences are often precipitated by very intense emotions.
These kinds of experiences cannot be accounted for under the prevailing materialist paradigm — they need to be dismissed as fabrications or coincidences. But in the perennial nondual understanding we know that the essence of our own mind and the reality of the world are the same. It’s not that internally we are made of mind and externally the world is made of matter — consciousness is the reality of both. So there is a very close conjunction between what takes place on the inside and what takes place on the outside. Thus, synchronicities like this are to be expected. They are just confirmations that there is a deep connection between the essence of our mind and the reality of the world.
