I remember nearly 20 years ago I entered a deep state of meditation while watching my breath. At one point... I stopped breathing, at least relatively. I have no idea of how much time passed, but I was fully aware that the decision to breath or not was my choice in that state/moment.

Life/death were immaterial, I was aware that if I did not breath I would die.... yet the ability to decide was all that existed.

I've heard of others who've been through this state/in this state of conciousness/meditation.

The Col: Not that heavy Dude.... well... compared to other instances. I'm just glad I had good teachers who prepared me somewhat for what can lay behind the clouds of thinking.
