Experience Description This experience happened approximately in 1972 around 2 a.m. when I was about six years old. I was sleeping on the terrace on a pleasant summer night. Both of my parents were with me. It became very peaceful, and I noticed I could see myself and my parents lying on our beds. I could read their thoughts. I had no body, light, or anything, or even a form. What puzzled me was that people still think when asleep. They were engaged in mundane matters and were not free from ego. As I could read their thoughts, I realized they were missing the very beauty and the aim of life. It was extremely pleasant, and only I could feel that.
