Maar je bent (nog) geen mysticus....
So to sense your connectedness with the source is the realization that God loves you, but you don't need the words anymore.
There's just a trust and there's no duality anymore, because you are an extension of the one, an emanation of the one.
So faith really is trust, but the trust is not something you can think yourself into.
Ultimately, you need to let go of all these concepts, although when you later talk about it, you may take them up again.
But for the experience of it, you let go of concepts and you can sense in the space between two thoughts, in the space of awareness, you can sense the stillness, the presence, and you can sense it as a silent power.
Silent.
That's the Dao.
It's Chinese.
A silent power.
And that silent power is inseparable from who you are.
It's you and much infinitely vaster than you, both at the same time.
It's almost as if a ray of sunlight that arrives here suddenly realizes its source, its a ray of sunlight suddenly realizes its own source, where it comes from.
And it also realizes that it can never be totally separate from the source, because there's the ray of sunlight.
Some are is still connected to the sun, which in this analogy, that's the source.
So the ray of sunlight then could say, "My fear has disappeared, because I realize that I'm connected to something much vaster and this vastness is sustaining me."
It could say that.
It could also say, and some have, some rays have done that, "I am the sun."
Ecstatic, translated in this analogy, there have been mystics in various traditions who said, "I am God."
It's not advisable to say that. People don't like it.
