After the non-ordinary comes the ordinary: how to integrate with an integral perspective?

In non-ordinary states we can experience a transitory libration form our ego-fixations and thus a higher and purer existence with opening of the senses, the mind and the heart. We might feel more real, more true and more connected to both the gross visible, and the subtle invisible dimensons of the world. When we come back after our experience (or journey) we often have to face our ego and lower self coming back online. It is useful to accept this and have a guidance how to integrate the higher and the egoic gross self. Usually people don’t become saints permanently after these experiences. We have to work on ourselves in the ordinary state of mind too. The developmental, e.g. integral perspective offers us a detailed understanding of which layers of the self are at play both during our experience and after when we have returned. It also helps us to accept and integrate the mundane and supramundane dimensions of ourselves, to become full human beings at peace with ourselves.
