I've read a couple of versions of this book and I just came up with a question:
So, if one has experienced the Clear Light, in this world, does that mean that he automatically escapes the circle of life and death in the after life? Or is there more than just experiencing it? (like holding on to it or a certain amount on focusing...)
Has anyone else read this and have any thought about it?
In my opinion its like the difference between visiting somewhere and moving somewhere.
Passing into the light and staying there(becoming part of it; One) is not the same as seeing it(or a copy/hologram) or experiencing it(memory/dream/etc.).
I'm also reading the Bhagavad Gita and it also says things along the lines of keeping God on your mind at all times, so that when you do leave the body, your experience will relate to the final thought.
