Yes, I know EXACTLY what you're talking about. For me, it's still just a matter of finding and remaining in that in between space. It's actually a very, very pleasant place to be, and it's functional. If I go too far into detachment, I'm basically blissed out and not much use in the material world, and if I go too far into ego-self-material, I get quite caught up in it all and it's easy to lose perspective. I can "snap out" any time I want, but going back and forth is jarring and disorienting. Hence my understanding that there's a middle place (and I have been there plenty of times) and that this is where my conscious focus needs to remain most of the time.
May the light surround you, may you be blessed. May the light surround us, may we be blessed. May love and light surround us all, and may we all be healed and blessed. And so it is, and so it shall be, now and ever after.
