Non Dual Experiences.

This just popped into my head the other day, and have wanted to share two different individuals having similiar experiences of a non dual nature. The first experience is on video, and the second is from a book called Initiation, Enjoy!

Please watch video from the 7 minute mark to at least the 11:11 mark.

Title: Initiation
Author: Elisabeth Haich
1974
Chapter:25   Years of preperation

Pg 166
I go back and concentrate on the meaning of the sentence "I always manifest divinity ...'... only on the meaning..
  Then I go back to Ima. He is just finishing a discussion with another neophyte. Seeing that I am waiting for him, he gives me a roguish glance as if he already knew how I had got on with my concentration excercise. Well? he ask.
  Ima, Its so strange! As I tried to concentrate only on teh meaning of the sentence, I couldn't think of it any more, and teh whole inner process moved out of my head into my breast, so that I wasn't thinking it any more, but feeling and experiencing it! The moment I concentrated on the meaning of this sentence without words, I myself became this meaning! But then the sentence has to read differently, not "I always manifest divinity", but  much more accurately, " I am divinity which is always manifesting Itself!"
  As I speak , Ima looks at me with a growing smile and growing pleasure. You have concentrated very well, he says. Very well! You've discovered that concentration cannot be a permanent condition, but only a transition between the projected world and being. When you concentrate your thoughts on something you can't stop with just thinking, because concentration leads you back to yourself, and you become the very thing you're concentrating on. From thinking you progress through concentration into a state of being! Thinking ceases completely and the thinker becomes identical with what he is thinking. To think something means to project a thought outwardly by means of the intellect, as if be means of a mirror, hence to step out of oneself. Through concentration we draw the projection back again, and what is thought becomes identical again with the thinker, with the person himself. The two factors are joined in perfect unity. That which is created goes back into the creator!
  Go on practising and you will experience this process with ever greater clarity. Here's a new excercise. You like to sit under this palm tree. Concentrate on it, and with that Ima leaves.
  I sit down again and look at the palm tree keeping my thoughts centered on this tree, nothing else.
Hours go by and evening comes. I have to go Home. Menu is waiting for me outside and we go home together. The next morning I am back in the temple garden, and after ou group excercises I take my place again under the palm tree, concentrating on it.
  When I begin this exercise, all kinds of extraneous thoughts disturbed me. I suddenly remembered what Menu had told me the evening before - I noticed a bird up in the fronds - then a gnat was humming about my ears - then I chased away all foreign thoughts as they arose in me and centrated only on the palm tree.
  Now I am getting along better. Thoughts can no longer reach me and really disturb me. Previously I was still in the world of thoughts - among the thoughts. My thoughts were abel to push me to and fro. But I did not let myself be pushed and almost imperceptibly further and further into myself where thoughts could no longer follow and disturb me. Now and again a thought bobs up, creeping through my intellect like a tired traveller. From my secure position I observe this stray, straggling, tired thought, but I don't bother about it...I think of the palm tree...slowly the palm tree fills my entire being.
  Days go by, perhaps weeks too, I don't know. I don't know anything any more that is going on in my outer world, as I am concentrating on the palm tree with all my attention. Then all of a sudden I have the odd feeling that I am no longer looking at the tree from the outside, but from the inside. To be sure I still perceive its outward form with my eyes, but I begin, to an ever increasing extent, to see and experience the inner being, the animating creative princple of the palm.. To See It, To Experience it, To BE IT!!
  And Finally there comes a moment in which I am suddenly conscious of the fact that the palm is no longer outside myself - no! - it never was outside- it was only a false conception on my part - the palm tree is in me and I in it - I MYSELF AM THE PALM TREE!!
