Did you access esoteric knowledge, wisdom, “knowing” or “seeing” in unusual ways?

Did you have an experience in which the normal boundary defining yourself was transcended, e.g., you could not tell where you ended and what used to be not-you began?

Did you feel a profound sense of love, well-being, peace, or safety?

Did you have a sense of returning “home?”

Did you have a sense that everything was complete and perfect just as it is?
