  • I think that would be like entering a very deep hypnotic sleep. Left alone you'd slip into sleep and wake when you were ready.

    But, almost 50 years ago, I had an experience of such a meditative state. I did NOT want to wake and was called back kicking and screaming. Wherever I was, I certainly wanted to stay there.
