I hope the balminess of the morning is the warming of our collective consciousness.

People absolutely embraced such a concept.

Samadhi is the journey from individual to collective consciousness. The steps of Samadhi are the steps towards reaching the collective consciousness. In meditation, the more we radiate love, compassion, peace, harmony and tranquility, the more is our contribution towards the collective consciousness. The more we positively contribute towards the collective consciousness the more is our progress in Samadhi.

Was I asleep? Had I slept?

Where are you on the ladder of a person's evolution? 1. Unselfconscious - 2. Selfconscious - 3. Superconscious And where you want to be in making your contribution to the collective consciousness?

It may just be that a true wake-up call creates a true shift in consciousness. My wake-up call left me no choice. I had to make dramatic changes. Sometimes changes just happen within you, it is the way you approach things. Everything else stays the same.
