Who Am “I”?

I had a truly profound experience this weekend. I woke up in the middle of the night, but something was different. I was far away from my mind. In a space of pure nothingness. I can’t even use the word “I” because it was too far out for me to even conceptualize this experience as my experience. “I” witnessed from far as a ball of energy begin to illuminate. Sounds and scenes started to form within it.

“I am Eliyahu Levitas... I live in Miami… I was born in 1995… I lived in Montreal.. I don’t like the feeling of… I love this feeling... I believe that we should all strive to be… This happened to me when I was young...” All these concepts floated around, and the scenery was all these past images, imaginary future images, places I lived in, scenes I went to, wanted to go, what I thought and wanted the future to look like. All these concepts of everything. All just concepts. Everything is created by the mind. It bothers me to say it but it’s not “real”. Everything is a fabrication of the mind.

Everything is a concept created by the mind.

There is an “I” outside of all these concepts that cannot be conceptualized which makes “me” terribly sad. This experience was the realization of the conceptual “I” that it is not real.

Aho!
