I experienced what I call the fundamental nature of reality, non-duality, about 16 years ago. I think that this is what Goenka calls “the ultimate truth.” On the other hand, I have only experienced bhanga (dissolution) once. My wife experiences bhanga frequently, and I learn a lot from talking with her about it.

I published an article recently about what I have learned from 4,300 hours of meditation and I write about some of the above in that article.
