I realized the universe had consumed my whole entity with its divine sensation of eternal bliss. All I could consciously perceive in that state of mind was absolute oneness. I felt being one with the banyan tree, under which I was sitting. I felt one with the corns in the field. I felt one with the sky and the clouds in it. As if everything was me, and I was everything. I didn’t have any perception of time or space. All that there was, was an all- pervading eternity — a state of non-dualism. Abhijit Naskar
About This Quote

Non-dualism is a term for an experience of union (often about transcendence) with the Divine. This experience is often described as a merging with the divine or God within. It is understood that that union can occur in several ways; through prayer, meditation, and other spiritual practices; through the use of psychedelics such as LSD and Psilocybin; or through a sudden awakening from a deep sleep or coma. It has been described as a feeling of being one with existence, one with God, one with the universe, one with the universe itself.
