During your life as a seeker, you may reach a point of no return; the event horizon of liberation. It may be a place of great discomfort, and will perhaps draw out feelings of despair or ideas of nothingness. But those feelings will only lie, and those ideas will never come close to the actuality.
Give yourself over to it, and press on. The end is quite near.

One cannot go back. It is like trying to put toothpaste back into the tube.
I am waiting for the time when I stop chasing God and He/She starts chasing me. Of course, that is only because I don't believe it has arrived yet. (laughs)
Thanks, Tom.
Eric,
Keep waiting and let us know what happens. ;)
(laughs) Perhaps stop chasing and see what happens. Chasing implies God is somewhere else. At one time I had what I described as an "arms length" relationship with God. I wondered why God kept this distance. Then I realized it was my arms length.
Amen
Not that what is every changes. Just the degree of our perception of it.
Event Horizon. Good term. The Gap. Diamond Portal. Many names for what cannot be described.
We fear the loss of what does not exist and thus resist what is. What is is SO MUCH BETTER!!!! And unlike the world of events, what is just gets better and better...
I may have had my "event horizon" yesterday. We shall see.
BTW, I love this site. Great job, Takuin. The name you've taken reminds me of a game my daughter and I play together... Tak The Great Juju Challenge.
Mike,
Let it pass as it may. It is tempting to hold it close to you, but what you hope to hold is not what it might have been. (I am not saying you have held fast to anything, by the way.)
Thanks for the compliments. I look forward to seeing you here again.
