Reality

I am often in decent sized groups (10-12) talking about my own spiritual experiences that cannot be readily explained by science as we know it, today.  Within those groups, I am often surprised by the high frequency of similar experiences in other people.  Things like out-of-body consciousness, near-death experiences, experiences of being outside of the time/space continuum or simply the experience of being protected.  Keeping in mind both Ockham’s razor (the simplest explanation is usually the right one) and the approach that I was given years ago of “treasure your exceptions”, it seems that this existence is not as simple and linear as we would like.  Understanding is not required.
