1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.279
We've run an online survey of
people's most intense

2
00:00:03.279 --> 00:00:05.679
enlightenment or spiritual
experiences.

3
00:00:05.679 --> 00:00:09.279
A lot of what we have found
through that process are certain

4
00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:12.279
core elements of the enlightenment
experience and they include:

5
00:00:12.279 --> 00:00:15.320
A feeling of unity, a feeling of
connectedness with others,

6
00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:18.359
a sense of clarity
that we finally, you know,

7
00:00:18.359 --> 00:00:20.760
a person finally understands
the world in a way

8
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:23.160
that they hadn't understood
the world before.

9
00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:27.879
A feeling of intensity:
it is the most intense experience

10
00:00:27.879 --> 00:00:31.079
that they've ever had, the most
incredible feeling of love

11
00:00:31.079 --> 00:00:32.679
that they've ever felt.

12
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:35.719
And then there's also this notion of
surrendering to the experience.

13
00:00:35.719 --> 00:00:39.759
This idea that we are not making
it happen, that it is something

14
00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:42.840
that kind of happens to us.
And then there's ultimately

15
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:46.920
the permanence of it that it
rearranges us within moments.

16
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:50.399
The experience goes beyond what
they had really believed before

17
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:51.799
and it changes the way they think,

18
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:53.799
it changes the way they think
about their relationships,

19
00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:55.119
the way they think
about the world,

20
00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:56.640
the way they think
about life and death,

21
00:00:56.640 --> 00:00:58.039
meaning and purpose in life.
