Who Am I and What Is Presence

Years ago I remember reading Rodney Collin say in Theory of Celestial Influence  that the first time you hear about self-remembering, or the first time you read those words, in that very moment you self-remember. And I remember at the time I was sitting in front of a large plate glass window, it was dark on the other side of the window, and I read that line and looked up. And I saw myself looking at a reflection of myself, looking back at me.



It was really powerful. It was an addition to being an observer. And the reflection in the window kind of triggered an intuition - something that was not fully formed, that was contributing to the power of that moment. But it was an immediate verification of the truth of what Collin had said, that those words would trigger the state. I didn't understand this at the time, but later I realized it also verified Rodney Collin's idea of self-remembering....
