That's not correct. Every entity exists by having mind, body and spirit components. Not having any of them makes it impossible for one to exist, leave aside experience anything. The very 'experience' that you are having is what your mind complex perceives and conveys to your own consciousness. This includes non-physical experiences.

But, say, i have been wondering one thing - if not doing something and instead meditating and being one with it is 'the' way, why are you talking about that in this forum instead of logging off, meditating and being one with the forum instead?
Any action can be performed in a meditative state. It is when we allow the Mind to become still within the action. When we are in trance, we are transcending between Intellectual and Intuitive Mind. Even when we have a Spiritual Experience, it is not perceived on the Intellectual level. We have allowed ourselves to transcend from one State to the other. During the "Spark" of Realization it can be interpreted by Intellectual Mind, although the process did not happen there. If we are constantly in Still Mind, it is already in a State of Meditation because the Mind is not thinking. This technique I use frequently because it is the most efficient, (without the need for Mantras). Plus, the advantage, the "I-ness", "Self", or "Ego", (or whatever you want to call it), is controlling the Mind, and not the reverse. Simply in the State of "Being". The more I have used this as an example, I am beginning to believe that in the "State of the Now", (and in the moment), that is it leading to something even deeper. Living in the "Moment" or the "Now" is not the end result, but only the beginning of something more profound. That I have not discovered yet.
