Total loss of visual connection with reality. The senses cease to function in the normal way. Total loss of ego. Merging with space, other objects, or the universe. The loss of reality becomes so severe that it defies explanation. The earlier levels are relatively easy to explain in terms of measureable changes in perception and thought patterns. This level is different in that the actual universe within which things are normally perceived, ceases to exist! Satori enlightenment (and other such labels).
A stanky smell Just as well, we ate the dank at sunset It consumed my being and relaxed the muscles like a salve applied to a malicious wound The trees took on new forms unfamiliar to a formerly shallow individual They danced in the moonlight swaying, as the wind whistled above the atmosphere The piny scent of the wilderness engulfed us Scenses crossed over unto each other as that scent morphed into an image of harmony a dancing girl, wild in the eyes of conformists I covered my pupils and when once again opened she was gone and all which remained were the stars somehere above, planet mars and an infinite others the cosmos was before us I viewed it with not ony my eyes, ears, and nose, but as a feeling of infinite time, space, and meaning Infinite, how peculiar a word might it also be stand for nothingness, chaos, and accident The accident, realised was us.
