It's great you're talking to someone, just be aware that traditionally Zen doesn't explicitly talk about these things and often the student is left to just sit with it.
But your experience might be different.
A&P manifests in a truly broad range of experiences, so don't expect it to match up directly to what was described in that link.
To get a feeling for how much it can differ you can look at this link:
https://www.dharmaoverground.org/discus ... ory/118172You don't have to have a formal meditation practice to pass the A&P, it can happen during a range of activities and even just spontaneously.
It can happen on psychedelics also.
If you have had this multiple times then it is possible you have crossed it multiple times, that is not uncommon.
In fact if you have crossed this a few times, then that makes the other possible explanation somewhat more likely.
That would be that you have entered the stream and attained the first stage of the Theravadan four path model of awakening.

In the first case you can expect to progress and even cycle through the dukkha nanas (Knowledges of suffering; AKA the dark night of the soul).
In the second cases you might be a little bit all over the place for a while but upon settling down you will experience a significant decrease in the amount existential suffering you experience.
This stuff might sound fanciful, but many thousands of people have progressed through these stages and entered the stream.
In April a good friend of mine did and he has since attained the second path in this model.
Each stage is characterised by predictable changes in experience both on and off the cushion.
If you have attained stream entry you may have access to at least the first four jhana

Feel free to PM me, this stuff is pretty normal for me
