Have you experienced a moment of epiphany?

Question

What was the epiphany related to?

Answer 1

Yes. Just a moment ago.

Answer 2

Yes, about 17 years ago I experienced a moment which I can only describe as a realization of God's existence visible in everything around me. Trees, the sky, air everything seemed like proof of God's existence and I could feel myself smiling and then for what seemed like an instant or the shortest portion of time I felt that I knew everything there was to know. I had all knowledge but in the same instant it was all gone and only the memory of the knowing  that I had known everything remained. I don't know how else to describe it. BTW, I never did drugs.

Answer 5

I lost my boyfriend to suicide and a close friend to cancer within 3 days.  I was 24 and had been an atheist since I was 8 years old for reasons related to logic, philosophy and trauma.  

Overwhelmed by grief and with nowhere to turn that adequately comforted me, I found myself on my knees crying out, "forgive me! Show me the way, Lord!"  Over and over.

Within moments the fog of grief parted and the knowledge that while I had abandoned God, God had never abandoned me came to me as an epiphany.  And that when I had asked for forgiveness, there was no need to beseech the Lord, I need only ask once.

Instantly I was no longer alone in my suffering, and I had faith that my friends' souls were at peace, in good hands.

I am not a born again Christian.  My spirituality is personal and global in scope at the same time as I take lessons from many faiths.  But after that moment I never looked back, my faith in the soul and a greater unknowable intelligence was total, and I am still in constant prayer to be shown the way so that I may live a life of growth, love and enlightenment.

  

Answer 6

yes, the life changing moment of zen came to me while taking LSD and XTC , and psycho/physically experiencing the quantum realms of physical existence and realizing that there is a universal consciousness at every level of physical reality be it in the electromagnetic spectrum or in ultra low spectrum of compression waves in the vacuum of space its all consciousness at every level  

Answer 7

I have not experienced it, since I do not believe in Him,

but-

it was related to the church celebrating the manifestation of Christ's birth to the wise men.

Answer 8

No, not really.

Answer 9

Twice. First time 1971 coasting down on a fully packed touring bicycle into Ten Sleep Canyon in the Big Horn Mountain range in Wyoming at sunset. Kind of out of body experience where I discovered death does not exist (as a terminal state). Second time, 1982 in a university library where I experienced an identity Gestalt type experience--the merging of my identity with a Whitehead type process reality divinity.

Answer 10

Lightsc...... got it right, but in my case it was a period of NON-duality which left me with the imossibly strong desire to go back. Knowledge and reality did not, not, mean anything (double "not's are intentional). It is all in the way one views the experience afterwards that matters . . . . .and it does not involve a great bearded icon in flowing robes.

Everyone to this point has had the same experience . . . .cool, huh?
