Webinar Leads to Belynda's Spiritual Epiphany "I just saw a large, brilliant ball of light."
In a recent Webinar for our OEFT Membership, I led our attendees through an exercise designed to help us "become" The Unseen Therapist. It included many metaphors such as walking through a brick wall in our imagination. Many reported success and there was an overall great feedback.
This letter from Belynda (see below) was particularly enlightening in that her experience included a profound spiritual experience (Epiphany). Belynda is not alone in this as other Members have experienced these unforgettable episodes. They leave an indelible stamp on us that shift our perceptions forever.

Dear Gary,
I liked the exercise.
When I got to the part where there was a brick wall between me (little (s)elf) and (big (S)elf), I did not need to gradually disintegrate the wall. I walked through a me-sized, misty middle of it.
On the other side of the wall, I did not see a distinct form, like Jesus or a female Unseen Therapist. I just saw a large, brilliant ball of light. When the ball and I consolidated, there was an epiphany.
EPIPHANY:
In this ball of brilliant light, I BECAME ALL of US . I realized I was one with ALL. Everyone in the world—and God—was equal in significance and was experienced as one “whole” of (S)elves (“whole of (S)elves”—love that). There was no separation or hierarchy of “Selves”, but intense, loving connection and oneness. We were all EQUALLY (as in equal!) free of our painful issues and specific events.
There was still a sense of recognizing that each part of the whole had had his or her life experiences. As separate individuals, some of us had very few painful issues, and others had many painful issues, but at our core and essence, we were only—and felt only—love, peace, healing, equality, and connectedness. Anything that had made us different as little (s)elves was just inconsequential fluff and unsubstantial barriers between us that had floated away or disintegrated. Surprise! Unfettered, we are all the same.
