---

There is an immense realization of abiding at last in the complete truth about life, the final word about reality. There is a perfect inner silence, broken only when presently shapes from environment come into the field of awareness again or sounds from the external surroundings make themselves heard. There is an utter emotional calm when desire and fear lie quite still. There is a sense of reality, a reality that ever was and ever will be, and of the surface-illusions having stopped at last.
