Iam at least 56 light years away from Earth. My space shuttle had entered the horizon of a black hole, which our space agency called IN56. I had promised my son I'd return in a month, not knowing I would be pulled into this.
As the shuttle's trajectory approached IN56's horizon, I realized — I'm not going to make it back.
3, 2, 1…
The shuttle's speed surged — at least 6x the normal speed — pulled by the insane gravitational force. It was pitch dark, darkness beyond human comprehension. Due to extreme G-forces (at least 10G), all five astronauts, including me, were slowly greying out. We could feel the blood draining from our heads, pooling into our legs. Thankfully, our world-class G-suits were helping mitigate the effect — keeping circulation just enough to stay conscious.
As we got pulled deeper, space and time collapsed, and we dissolved into the Singularity — a point where the known laws of physics stop making sense.
And then… I woke up.
It was 3:03 AM, sweat dripping from my head. That dream wasn't just sci-fi — it echoed something I've been immersed in lately. The collapse I experienced reminded me of what Shankara and Ramana Maharshi described through Non-Duality: the dissolution of all perceived distinctions — self and other, subject and object — into one unified whole.
I couldn't sleep. I brushed my teeth, had warm water with lemon and honey, and sat down to meditate at 3:30 AM. Over the past five days, I've read four books on Non-Duality, Maha Yoga, and Maharshi's teachings. These ideas have rooted themselves so deeply in me that my dream of Singularity merged effortlessly with the concept of Non-Duality.
On a literal, scientific level, they cannot be directly compared. A black hole is a physical entity with measurable properties, governed by the laws of physics. Non-duality is a philosophical and experiential concept about the nature of consciousness and reality itself. But maybe both point toward something beyond separation — toward oneness.
Just a small attempt to show the connection between science and spirituality.
