I think how I experience this is my chakras pulling into each other
to become one unified chakra that is settled into my chest and "glows
outward".

I feel it to be as big as a basketball in physical feeling inside my
chest. It extends into my throat and into my solar plexus but it
radiates infinitely in all directions and in all dimensions, timeless.

Rising k rekindled my light. :)

Truth feels like incredible bliss to me. That's how I know when
people are lying or when I am lying to myself. Truth spoken makes
Time stand still, thrills my heart, makes it stand at attention. Not
truth has no life for Truth is alive and vitalizes the hearer and the
heals the speaker.

I think in the experience of non-duality people forget the importance
of duality, as if it was something to be despised and left behind.

It was. Nice confirmation of some of my experiences.
