Since some of my English-speaking friends have complained about my site just being written in Norwegian, I have for their pleasure decided to make this site a multilinguistic one. 
I found this religious experience quoted in my curricula, and considered it worthy of being my first English post on this site. Please read:
”I remember the night, and almost the very spot on the hilltop, where my soul opened out, as it were, into the Infinite, and there was a rushing together of the two worlds, the inner and the outer. It was deep calling unto deep, –the deep that my own struggle had been opened up within being answered by the unfathomable deep without, reaching beyong the stars. I stood alone with Him who had made me, and all the beauty of the world, and love, and sorrow, and even temptation. I did not seek Him, but felt the perfect unison of my spirit with His. The ordinary sense of things around me faded. For the moment nothing but an ineffable joy and exaltation remained. It is impossible fully to describe the experience. It was like the effect of some great orchestra when all the separate notes have melted into one swelling harmony that leaves the listener conscious of nothing save that his soul is being wafted upwards, and almost bursting with its own emotion. The perfect stillness of the night was thrilled by a more solemn silence. The darkness held a presence that was all the more felt because it was not seen. I could not anymore have doubted that He was there than I was. Indeed, I felt myself to be, if possible, the less real of the two.”
Quoted from William James (195
