Adi Ashanti: I had sort of the classical mystical experience where everything fell away and I felt completely connected to everything. It wasn't that everything went quiet, although everything kind of was quiet because we were on a silent retreat but it was pretty quiet. So yeah, and I love silent retreats for that reason. Some people are like, I would be so hard. But for me, the silence is not hard. It's just glorious.
