tangent of meditation thread
Good post Coelho.
It contained elements of enlightenment, but was missing a couple of crucial realisations that are qualifiers for the full event - although as you said, you haven't posted your full experiences here so they may well have been present. But, what happened is certainly sufficient for you to move into reading Dzogchen texts and trying out the methods there, you'll be pleasantly suprised by how much of it you already understand.
These events are great, and run from 'interesting' to 'astoundingly life-changing', but they're only the first step in gaining full enlightenment, ie, a continuing state of access. In a sense, the idea of Dzogchen is to help those who have had experiences to firm them up and help them grow into something more continual and tangible, to actually live in enlightened knowledge.
I'd be very happy to point you towards the right texts and explain the practises we use if you should be interested? You don't actually have to become a Buddhist though
