The union with Purusha was just a glimpse.

Let us recall again the incident when a consciousness, which I thought was Purusha, entered through the Sahasrara chakra on my head. At that time, I recognized it as Purusha, and of course, there are aspects of that, but in terms of awakened consciousness, it felt like a glimpse. In the first place, Purusha is a universal existence, so it literally permeates everything and is an eternal existence. Therefore, it can be said that Purusha exists in everyone, whether they are aware of it or not, and the difference is only whether they are aware of it or not. In that sense, when the consciousness that I thought was Purusha entered, I certainly had a sense of Purusha (temporarily). On the other hand, while it was something that would permanently change one's consciousness, it could also be said to be a glimpse.

According to the writings of Professor Honzan, it takes several years for Purusha to enter and for self-awareness to emerge. There was a shock when it entered, and after that, the aura and consciousness changed permanently, but it seems to take some time for that consciousness to become stable and self-aware. In that sense, it felt like a glimpse. On the other hand, even though the quality may be the same, its scale and depth are limited, and it has not yet spread to the regional consciousness.

And now, I think that even if there was a consciousness of Purusha, it also included the consciousness of Karana (causality), which is one level below. This is natural, and it felt like Purusha was 20% and Karana was 80%. Even so, the power of a strong consciousness entity activated my consciousness, and my sense of self also diminished.

According to books, it is written that if you neglect the Karana dimension, it will decrease. On the other hand, it is written that once Purusha reaches a certain level, it will not decrease. This is certainly a statement that I can agree with, but even though experiencing Purusha means it will not decrease, there are many times when one becomes more sensitive or sentimental, which is often referred to as "miko" by priestesses or "majo" in Zen. These experiences continued for a long time. Therefore, while it is true that knowing Purusha means it will not decrease, there are times when one's mental state becomes unstable. This is a very subtle matter, and it may not be easy to understand immediately. Before glimpsing Purusha, there were many times when one's aura itself became unstable and broken, leading to mental instability. On the other hand, after knowing Purusha, one's aura is generally maintained, and then one's mental state may become unstable. Although they may sound similar in words, there is a big difference.

It's like, even if your mind is sound, if you get injured or something hits you, you feel pain and your mind becomes unstable. The mental instability after knowing about Purusha has something similar to that. It's purely mechanical, physical, and based on laws; it happens as it happens, and if time passes or the cause is removed, the mental instability will go away, just like a wound heals. Many people may not be aware of this, but for some people, it's a matter of course. However, there's a stage where it's not a matter of course.

If the foundation of the mind itself is unstable, or if the aura's foundation is shaky, or if there's damage to the aura, the mind will not be stable no matter how much you try to stabilize it. This is also a sign of a mental disorder. People are often unaware of themselves, so some people may not have any problems from the beginning, while others may have problems. Not having mental problems means that you are at a certain stage, but since it's about yourself, you often don't pay attention to that stage. Therefore, there are people who are consciously aware of the Purusha-like consciousness from the beginning, and on the other hand, there are people who are not consciously aware of it, and some people don't even know what stage they are in. In Japan, there are many people with excellent minds, so some people are born at the Purusha stage without even having to practice (due to good deeds from before birth). On the other hand, there are people who have not reached that stage and are not paying attention to their own stage. Therefore, in both cases, whether consciously or unconsciously, if the mind is stable, it means that you are somewhat awakened. It's something that's obviously obvious, and you might even say it's too obvious. On the other hand, there are also cases where the mind is unstable, regardless of whether it's conscious or not.

Now, at a stage where there are people with such diverse levels, there is a huge difference between the instability of people whose mental foundation is not established and the instability of people whose mental foundation is established. People whose mental foundation is not established have days that are sometimes good and sometimes bad, and the cause is often unclear. On the other hand, people whose mental foundation is established are basically in good condition, and sometimes they experience a temporary state of being unwell, like catching a cold or getting injured, although the reason is not always consciously known. This is a big difference.

And, when you take a look at Pulsha, you essentially achieve mental stability. Even if it's over a period of several months, you experience mental instability like "bujo" (a type of mental disorder) or "majyou" (a state of mental distress) on top of this basic mental stability. Before Pulsha, the very foundation of your mind was so unstable that it would collapse. However, after Pulsha, the basic foundation becomes stable, and then you experience partial instability, becoming sentimental. This is a significant difference.
