The darkness would not be for me

Here's an interesting article by someone who went on a Buddhist inspired weekend retreat in a completely blacked out room.   It seems he was generally into meditation and "spiritual enquiry", but isn't a Buddhist.

Oddly, despite the experience sounding very weird and disconcerting, it doesn't seem as if it had much effect on him.   

No way I would do that - I'm even hesitant to try one of those float therapy pods, in case I revert to a pre-human.  (Readers require knowledge of the wacko movie Altered States to understand...)
