What are the characteristics of a luminous experience?
Perhaps a sense of unity. This could be experienced internally, as open awareness or a sense of wholeness, and it might blend with a sense of external unity, a feeling of being at one with your surrounding environment. There may be a sense of infinite time or limitless space, perhaps even a reverence for life that arises from an awareness of the living presence within all things.
Perhaps a luminous experience holds a deeply felt sense of peace and joy, a sense of sacredness, or a feeling that what is being experienced is somehow profoundly true.
Or, perhaps a luminous experience is simply one in which you are majestically present (*see the luminous goat pic).
Happy meditating!
