mental space and euphoria

With a billion stars in the sky, the vast space is still vacant, an infinite expanse. Can it ever be crowded? With countless thoughts in the mind, the mind’s space is likewise a vast and vacant expanse, which can never be crowded. Thoughts and images make it appear crowded. The space is apprehended when the thoughts and images settle down and are bypassed.
Let my mind expand in this vast empty space, ignoring any single thought, image, or memory of feeling that may appear in the expanse like a star in the sky. A sense of euphoria emerges now and then.
Reality and ecstasy:
The scriptures declare that the Reality, that is The Truth, is ecstatic, absolute ecstasy. But I cannot believe that the reverse is true. Any feeling of ecstasy, however absolute, will still be a feeling only and not Reality. Even in alert attention, in an empty mind, ecstasy can be at best only a sort of euphoria that can be confused for grace. It is in the realms of sensations and feelings may be the result of a still mind.

euphoria is not real

WHEN?

The tap is open: water flows out.
The fan spins on,
Time ticks away.
Life leaks out
The tank has to empty itself.
When?

Blank mind and euphoria:
My eyes are closed. My mind is alert. There is nothing in the mind. No particular thought is erupting except some small ripples of no significance. It is a clean slate. In the placid waters little ripples can always arise here and there. One is aware. Although alert the mind is blank.
Then thoughts arise. Is it the state of the mind where it is kept open and empty? The very question makes it not empty! When that subsides, the mind is calm and one is engulfed in a sort of pleasant warmth, a sort of euphoria.
But what has it to do with Reality? Is not the feeling caused by body secretions like endorphins, enkephalins, and pheramones? I think that one can stay in a state of ecstasy for some time by using the technique of ‘vacuumizing’ the mind. Anything further will happen?
