Feeling Oneness With All

Recently a client of mine wrote and asked about her experience of “feeling oneness with everyone and everything”. She wanted me to explain what happened and why, without (in her words) any “New Age-y junk”!

She wrote: “You had just finished an energy healing session on me, and it brought up some feelings of anger about people who had mistreated me in the past. As I walked out your door, I was thinking about anyone who had ever treated me badly in my life and what a***** they were. I was getting very angry. Suddenly, before your office door had even shut behind me, I had this feeling of absolute and total oneness with everyone and everything. Since my mind was still on the people who had treated me badly when this feeling of oneness came, I suddenly felt great joy in realizing that since they were a*****, then I was one too! I no longer hated them, because I understood we were all one, and all connected. I was them, and they were me. It was an incredibly beautiful and peaceful feeling. As a Christian, I felt like I finally understood Jesus’ teachings.”

“This feeling of oneness was incredibly intense for about 5 minutes, and then slowly faded out over the course of the day. I wasn’t upset when the feeling left, and I didn’t try to convince myself that I was still in that state of mind. I was happy I was given a ‘look see’. My question is how and why did this happen?”
