4 Is there EEG evidence for Cosmic Consciousness? During reported experiences of “witnessing sleep”, alpha activity typical of TC occurs along with the delta activity of deep sleep.

5 During Sleep: Higher Theta-alpha activity Mason, et al, Sleep, 1997.

6 A study of individuals reporting the experience of Cosmic Consciousness showed higher frontal EEG coherence during a number task. Responses also better matched the task demands. This measurement is part of the “Brain Integration Scale."

9 Growth of Cosmic Consciousness – Witnessing Activity It’s happened to me exercising and dancing. I feel a really strong connecting between myself, the activity I’m performing and the environment where it’s taking place. Yet, it’s not really me performing, I feel more like a witness but still that sense of bliss is there. I still enjoy it deeply.

10 I seem to have entered a realm consisting of full bliss and peace. Afterwards I feel extremely replenished, and ready for action. I feel energized and yet extremely relaxed. So much potential energy, it is unbelievable. The world is my playground, I am silent within myself, where I sit calmly, yet I am ready to go out and act, conquer.

11 It just feels like my awareness is expanded – I am very calm and fully aware of all my surroundings, but more of my awareness is beyond them. It is like looking through a wide angle lens – my mind just opens outwards.

12 I feel an evenness in consciousness from waking through sleep and dreaming. When I wake up, it felt like coming back from somewhere where I was nourished with peace and silence; it was a fulfilling energy. I felt so integrated with everything else. I felt extremely awake in the level of silence. Growth of Cosmic Consciousness – Witnessing Sleep
