This "perceived loss of boundaries between self and environment" is said to be experienced through a sensation that one is the whole universe (and therefore there is no need to differentiate the "I" from the "universe") or by simply acknowledging the "I" does not exist." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ego_death https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ego_death
